    Things I Love – #8

    It’s definitely Fall in the Midwest, here are a few of my favorite things for the cooler weather.

    Click on the photos below for more details.

    Nest Pumpkin Chai classic candle

    Nothing says Fall like the scent of pumpkin and spice. I really love the large 3-wick candle, but it is available in a smaller size.

     

    Pottery Barn Faux Fur Ruched Throw

    Light your pumpkin candle and cuddle up with a good book under this cozy blanket.

     

    Pook Dukes mittens

    I found these in Canada a few years ago. Soft and warm with flannel on the inside and wool on the outside.

     

    Halogen Colorblock Cashmere poncho

    Just the right amount of warmth for running around in the Fall. The two-color poncho sold out at Nordstrom; but I found it online at Nordstrom Rack, for half price.

     

    Solmate socks

    “Life’s too short for matching socks” and they’re comfy cozy! So many fun color options, buy one for you and one for a gift.

     

    Rebecca Minkoff Chamille Stud Mule

    I love heels but sometimes you need a comfortable, stylish shoe that isn’t a heel.

     

    Burberry Cashmere Scarf in Classic Check

    Fun Fact: Some Burberry scarves are made in Scotland. When we were in Scotland this summer, I couldn’t resist getting a souvenir.

     

    Max Mara 101801 Icon Coat in ultramarine

    I’ve had my eye on this classic coat for years and I finally took the plunge this year. I’m actually looking forward to the cooler weather, so I can wear it.

    Moscato Mule

    Here’s a fun twist on the classic Moscow Mule.

     

    2 oz. moscato

    1.5 oz. ginger beer

    1 oz. vodka

    1/2 T. fresh lime juice

    Fill a glass with ice (preferably a copper mule mug with crushed ice.) Add all ingredients above and stir. Garnish with a lime wedge.

    Cheers!
