THREADS - EMERALD & BLUE

I think I could say at the beginning of every fall outfit post, that I LOVE fall fashion!  This was such a simple outfit, but the colors made it so fun.  These blue velvet skinnies from Threadsence are still some of my all time favorite pants.  And I'm so thrilled I finally have some of boots that fit over my jeans!  These suede boots from Blowfish are some of my new favorites.  They are just the perfect everything, and so so comfy!  I love how they equally compliment pants or a dress/skirt.  This top from F21 is the only emerald piece of clothing I have.  I quite love the color.  It's a very stretchy cozy sweater like material.  My trio of braided leather bracelets are from Flourish Leather.  She has an amazing assortment of colors, and they are so fun to mix and match with different outfits.  (Her shop is closed right now since they just had a new baby!!  Congrats Danielle!)  The necklace is a custom one I made for a mother of four.  I love how it turned out.  She wanted something that gave her a 'warrior' feel and that represented her four children.  I love it so much, I think I'm going to introduce a similar style to the shop!  Oh, and this amazing picnic table... my daddy made it, and painted it rainbow color.  Its fading, but I love it all the more. 

In other news, those of you who follow me on facebook might have seen some changes going on over there.  When I started on facebook, I used my personal account as my business account as well.  It has grown so big, I have found facebook to not be a fun place for me anymore.  So many status updates of people I don't know or connect with, and so much negativity.  I'm finding this is a place I'd like to ween myself from, in many ways.  I have decided to delete most of the people from my personal page, and just keep family and friends I truly connect with.  I'm encouraging everyone to please follow my fanpages, Roots and Feathers & The Bohemian Collective instead.  I'm going to be more active over in those spaces from now on, with more visual updates on what is going on.  I have already deleted a few hundred from my personal page, with a few more to go.  This has been such a push and pull thing to do.  I feel so bad, and hate to dismiss anyone, but its something I just need to do for myself.  But I don't want anyone to miss out on anything, or feel a disconnect with what I'm doing creatively.  So in a way, Im just switching gears with how I operate my business on facebook.  So please follow me over on my fanpages for updates from now on.  Thank you :)

KINSEY WEARING ROOTS AND FEATHERS

It has been so long since Ive shared images of other bloggers wearing my jewelry, I thought I'd do a few solo features with each girl.  First up is the beautiful Kinsey of Sincerely, Kinsey.  I have mentioned before that her and I could be closet swapping hoarders together.  Our styles are different but we both adore what and how each other styles their wardrobe.  It's a mutual fashion love affair for sure.  Here are just a few of the amazing ways she has styled some of my jewelry from Roots and Feathers.  Visit Kinsey's lovely blog to see countless inspiring posts.  It's a dreamland.

THREADS - HARVEST MOON

This outfit is the perfect blend of fall colors to me.  The mustard color of this skirt is one of my all time favorite colors.  Seasons and colors excite me!  I love the energetic powers they hold.

After posting tons of new goodies in my Roots and Feathers shop, today I will spend some time packaging up orders, and then cleaning up my space.  My studio is a WRECK.  A wreck.  Drives me nuts just walking in there right now.  Which means its time to re-organize and clear space for new work.  This is a constant thing I must do.  And I need to clean my home.  Constantly learning to find the balance of work, play, learning and cleaning.  My moon time always falls on the week of the new moon.  I find it an awesome thing that my body naturally goes through a few day period of heavy rest and re-set b/c of this, right before the new moon takes place, giving me a fresh surge of energy during this time.  

The universe has recently opened some new amazing opportunities for some of my closest friends, and my heart is just bubbling over with joy for them...  mmmmm...  AND... Im looking forward to a harvest moon date with a very special friend at the end of the month.  Namaste.

ROOTS AND FEATHERS AUTUMN PRETTIES

Yesterday I added tons of new pretties to my Roots and Feathers shop!  Some more will be added today as well!  Most of them are one of a kind pieces, but not all of them.  Fall weather really excites me when it comes to designing.  

I also posted a little vintage inspiration from Spanish Moss over on The Bohemian Collective this morning!
