When the world turns copper and gold

It's been a long, but pretty awesome day. I am the happiest little Alison in the world right now.

I'll tell you more about it tomorrow. ;)

For now though, today is the first day of the last month of this year. Here are some lovely words to explain the beauty of autumn that is fast fading.

Delicious autumn!  My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.  

~George Eliot

Besides the autumn poets sing,

A few prosaic days
A little this side of the snow
And that side of the haze.
~Emily Dickinson

Oh, and P.S., the skirt is pleather, from a thrift store for $ 4-6 (bad memory). I almost didn't get it but my friend convinced me otherwise. Thanks Amy, cause I looooove it!

Flea market

I have a deep love for vintage, antique and just plain old things. The mister and I were supposed to go to a flea market this morning, but it was closed or out of business (or never really existed, who knows?) So I still had a hankering to look at unique, beautiful things when I got home. Here are some of my favorites that I wanted to share with you.

hat, all the rest
