This weekend Mr. Feather was on all kinds of calls and working, so to be supportive I stayed home and went through books on my Kindle. I started off with Trainspotting - the Edinburgh dialect was hard at first but then fun to imagine in my mind. Major bummers in that book though. Since I liked Gone Girl so much I also went ahead and read Sharp Objects and am almost done with Dark Places. One of my very few academic talents? Speed reading!
Modcloth top
BDG jeans (my next gray pair: these!)
Hermes shawl (carried), VCA necklace (similar)
Hermes bag (similar)
Louboutin heels
This top is my one and only purchase from Modcloth so far, and I highly recommend it. It’s comfortable and slouchy and fits nicely, at a great price. I liked it so much I was thinking of getting a backup but I’m trying not to do that anymore.
I’m also carrying a new favorite fall purchase, a little Hermes shawl – I’ll have a post on that to come! Hope you all had fun weekends.
Oh the Glasgow accent is even worse! Loving “Mr Feather” he sounds like a tickly Mr Man.
Looking forward to seeing a good photo of your shawl, the colours look beautiful!
Happy Monday Hun xoxo

can you share some tips of speed reading? so curious.
Michelle I just read a lot ever since I was young so I think it’s just with practice..I know there’s classes you can do though. Here’s a little primer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_reading#Methods
Love the vibrant color of your shawl, can’t wait you to post about it.:)
I love the design on the shawl. It was one of the most popular in the collection though the name escapes me now. I’ve worn mine so much that I try to get one each year just so that I rotate them a bit more.
So, did you like Sharp Objects and Dark Places? I loved Gone Girl so much I’m afraid to be disappointed by them!
I would rank Dark Places above Sharp Objects – I think Sharp was her first novel so of course the the characters are a bit more predictable, etc than her later ones. I’d read Dark Places first and then Sharp Objects if you get antsy and want another book to read after that. They’re both good though, I’d recommend both.
love the different shades of grey here!
great look

From the hints of color it looks like an ex libris en kimonos shawl.
I purchased one in a different color…it’s my favorite! I loved the print so much that I also bought three scarves in different color ways.
I was finally able to get an etoupe birkin this weekend while vacationing Hawaii.
Gotta love how etoupe just matches practically everything!
Emily you have good eyes! It is a beautiful print, I need to do a full post on it later.
Yay I love Etoupe!! Hooray. Was it as a walk in? I’ve heard great things about the Hawaii stores, lower sales tax too!
Lovely outfit! I’ve only seen the Trainspotting movie. It was a massive hit in the UK.
That Hermes shawl looks so chic! I would love to see more of it in the future posts
beautiful style!
I love how you styled that top and that shawl is absolutely STUNNING!
Gorgeous!!
Loving the look, I too am wearing lots of stripes lately, they are a bit addictive! my little boy has a fair few stripey items now also – thumbs up from both of us!

You look great in it!
My son’s teacher is Scottish and seriously I had no idea what she was saying to me last time I met her. The funny bit is I asked my son “Do you understand what she’s saying?” and he with a stony face said “Sure!”.. It must be me, right? ;D

I love your Cali style. That shawl looks amazing! The H in Strasbourg is small and stocked lightly (although they say I can request from the Paris store). I did not ask about bags but the store did not have any wallets or bags on display. :-/
