Fabulous Fall Finds: Peppermint Bliss

This week's Fabulous Finds are coming straight from Chicago...please welcome Bailey of Peppermint Bliss!  A designer, newlywed and really fun blogger, I love reading her fresh take on everything from pop culture to window treatments.

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. Everyone gets so excited about Spring, and after my first Chicago winter, I did too, but to me Fall is the most romantic, energizing- and stylish time of year. It is that back to school excitement. The first crispness in the air, and realizing that sometimes a chunky sweater is way sexier than a bikini. Even Summer Love would be nothing without the threat of the upcoming Fall. Fall is apples, and Dawsons Creek, and Jenny and Oliver Barret, and outdoor fires.

I got married this September in Aspen, and I am sure that will only make my romance with the Fall all the more passionate…

I hope you enjoy my picks!

Plaid:

 

                                                                         

It’s just so preppy and classic and cozy!

Farm Life:

Fall also makes me crave country life, I can barely stand to visit the EmersonMade store/blog without being tempted to pack it all up for my own little slice of farm life. 

It doesn’t hurt the fantasy that their clothes are the cutest fall items around, either.

Capes:

Lauren Moffat has some very cute items that take me back to my boarding school days.  I’m still uncertain as to whether or not I could ever pull this look off, but I very much would like to.

                                                                   

Skin:

Just because summer is over doesn't mean you can neglect your skin! Fall is just the first hint of the violent abuse winter wreaks on my sensitive dermy.  Fresh Body Scrub- Discovered this in prepping for the wedding, like a fabulous pedi for the whole bod!

 Finish up with Frederic Fekkai Shea Butter…And I mean…Silky soft glowy dewy baby-bottom skin.

Now that I'm a Sadie Sadie, Married Lady I think I must take better care of my paws.  I'm really loving OPI’s Ski Teal We Drop for my next mani!

Cocktails:

I love myself a seasonal cocktail, and besides being the prettiest bottles around…St. Germain, makes some delightful Fall Bevies

I hope you all enjoyed my Fall finds, and that you have some fun weekend plans full of frolicking and apple picking and crisp Fall delights!
