When It Gets Crisp in the Fall
We’ve finally gotten some cool weather in the valley! I decided to celebrate with this little number—cropped jeans from Target, new gray booties (which are totally fall-ish to me), my ruffley J Crew white tank, and a black cardigan from J Crew.

I’m thinkin’ a semi-autobiographical, diary-like recording of my projects, thoughts, essay topics, and, of course, daily outfits. We’ll see what happens.
Anyway, I...
