Bobbing for {Russet} Apples








Humm te tumm...it's been quite the week...getting into the rhythm of another year and season! Dear Jessica has been suffering acutely from Caribou-Drive-In-Backache Syndrome, and I have been constantly and agonizingly inflicted with More-Homework-Than-Fits-My-Schedule-itis. Next week should be better, however, and thus contain more consistent blog posts *moment of embarrassment*

That said, my other and lovely roommate Caitlin and I managed to squeak in a trip to the nearby mall today. When (finally!) an H&M opens in your neighborhood--well, it's an event worth spending your measly two hours of weekend freedom on :) Plus I had a little birthday money, so I replaced my favourite dress (succumbed to a terrible rip last year) with this fall's revamp...*follow this blog and you'll see it soon*

Speaking of this fall, this season's selection at H&M is absolutely fabulous, just let me tell you! Jess, Caitlin, and I--who definitely have varying styles--all fell head over heels for a little russet number. Picture a long-sleeve, silky-soft light-weight sweater with the perfect crew-neck cut and (very British) soft, brown leather elbow patches. To top it all off, said elbow patches were top-stitched. Heaven. *Read those last sentences and tell me you've ever such a highly-concentrated hyphenated vocabulary*

Besides the little russet number, we found some darling ruched-sleeved shirts, big pocket swing skirts, a ballet pink cardigan and some leopard print. In the end, we restrained ourselves (college student budget). But you can see Jess' new skirt in today's outfit pics :D
