My last outfit… was orange on orange, this outfit is green on green! I’m having a moment with monochrome colors, cozy cardigans, sweater knits, and these perfect vintage jeans from Madewell. This is my third pair I’ve ordered of this style… so now I have a faded black wash, a mid-wash and a light wash. This wash fits sliiiiightly different than the others, but still my favorite style of jeans that Madewell carries right now. So yeah! What’s new? Not much. I’m sort of trying to get my stuffs together after a busy weekend and sort of a bummer start to my week. For no major reason whatsoever! Just bummer Tiek! So yeah, feeling slightly more myself today and ready for yet another weekend. Hopefully one where I can relax a bit more and try to enjoy these final days of autumn here in the UP.

When I was making my way through the lower part of the Keweenaw, I stopped into Houghton at Grace + Gather and picked up a few cute things… including this sweater tank! I’ve been on a tank buying mission lately just because… they work so nicely under the millions of cardigans I own, and also flannels/plaids! I also think it’s time I switch my closet over now from summer to winter and start busting out some of my warmer pieces/coats. We’ve had suuuch a late fall peak here in the UP and have had a very very mild October. I’ve been able to pull off flats and cardigans and no jackets, which is rare, even compared to this time last year. But it’s definitely getting colder — 43º currently and feels like 36º. OOF!

So yeah, I’m just… embracing these final days of October and daylight before November hits. I’m onto the last week of MQT XII before heading down to Grand Rapids for Halloween weekend. No major plans… just a Wine Club with the girls and a fall football/chili cook-off day at a friend’s house. I miss our annual BOTTOM40 Halloween party. I have a lot of goals though come winter… including getting organized, getting rid of stuff, listing items on Poshmark, signing up for a gym membership, starting to cook/eat at home more, slow down, read some books, focus on myself, blah blah blah. All good! Well I’m off! See ya soon. 😘
