Robinette's Apple Haus

Brett and I headed out to my favorite place ever to go in the autumn, Robinette's Apple Haus & Gift Barn! It's so cute - I love going every single year. They have an amazing apple orchard, bakery, cider bar, gift shop and spiderweb shaped corn maze! Plus, there is a wonderful path through the woods that you can walk and see all of the pretty autumn colors!

I thought this darling apple print skirt from ModCloth would fit our little adventure perfectly! The print is green and brown apples, but it has a black elastic band so I thought a simple black tank and flats would go great with the red cardigan! If it didn't have the black band, I probably wouldn't have thought to wear black with this outfit, but I liked the end result! Especially because my purse matched perfectly today. I never change purses so if I'm in brown, I'm still totting around my black purse! Hehe.

(granny smith chic skirt - c/o modcloth | tank, skimmer flats, purse - urban outfitters
cardigan - the limited | twisting tree ring - c/o modcloth)

We got some hot cider from the cider bar, bought a half gallon of cider to bring home (they make their own there, yum!) and Brett got some peanut brittle and I chowed down on a caramel apple (my third one of the season, geez!) I love autumn food! We got some pictures by the giant apple and wandered off into the apple orchard for a bit. The weather is definitely cooling down a bit! It was only in the 50's today!

We didn't stay too long because we were in a time crunch due to band practice. Mmhmm, that's right! We have three songs written.. well.. two and a half? It's with our friends Jeremy (guitar/singing) and Jesse (bass) - I'm playing guitar/singing. Brett is drumming! Time flies by when we practice - I'm having so much fun. I can't wait until we have enough songs down to record and play a show! Well, see ya tomorrow! I have to post every day for the rest of the month in order to get all of my planned outfit posts done! Eeep!

Ah the red lips are absolutely ravishing on you. I went to a friend's farm the other day and he had an apple orchard...there's something so magical about apple orchards. REALLY.

A post everyday for the rest of October? I don't think I'd complain... Although you might hate us all by the end of it!!

I'm fairly certain this is my favorite of your fall outfits so far, and one of the cutest day recaps! It's so sweet and simple. The skirt pattern is precious, and I adore the way you paired it all with black and red! Really seriously truly the epitome of perfection. So much to love about the pictures, too. Sounds like you're loving being in a band! You go, girl.

You look great Tieka, and that apple orchard looks like such a cute place to visit! On Friday I'm going to a local farm to pick apples with my boyfriend and a few friends. I can't wait! I'm hoping they have some hot apple cider there!

This just might be my favorite outfit yet. An apple farm and an apple skirt?! I'm in love. And the red lips...it's all perfect.

Vicki said...

girl you look amazing with red lips! like snow white! i wish we had orchards and cider bars over here in Ireland! :) x

Chloe Trayner said...

Thank you for your words the other day Tieka, I really appreciate gaining other people's perspectives on things in the blogging world.
You look stunning in these photos, all the colours flatter you amazingly and your red lipstick is a winner!

Suzy D. said...

Hey Tieka! I wanted to thank you for posting so many fall outfits. I used to live in the US when I was in primary school and now I'm back in France, and strangely enough I miss America most when the leaves start turning orange. We don't feel the changing of seasons so much in France (I don't know why, but the colors aren't the same), and also people aren't really used to "celebrating" them.
And also: have fun praticing, I'm in a band with my boyfriend and it's a blast!!

April, Everyday Forgotten said...

Awwh that skirt is just so cute! I love it!

Ooh i can't wait to hear some of your music :)

The Daily Fashionista said...

Oh how I wish the closest apple orchard wasn't 3 hours away from me. It's very pretty up in the mountains of virginia but just too far away. Maybe I might make a trip up anyways because they have the best bakery too.

And I really love your cute apple print skirt. I love how you put together your outfits with your surroundings. It makes it even more fun to get dressed!

500 days of Jo said...

I stayed out a few days and you already have tons of amazing posts full of crazy fun adventures! How I envy you girl, I can't seem to get away more than ten steps from my school. I hate that school. ahah! Your last three outfits are so diferent but yet so Fall-ish and delightfully pretty :) I can't get enough of your blog!
<3, Jo*

NoGuiltFashion said...

You couldn't have dressed any more appropriate for the occasion. I love the red jacket on you. That skirt looks so fun too. Can't wait to see what other fun fall posts/adventures you have planned.

Closet Confections said...

All of your recent posts about apple orchards, corn mazes, and pumpkin patches is really making me miss Michigan. I keep trying to get my husband to take me apple picking, but he's from Florida and doesn't get it, lol. Ah well, have some hot apple cider and a donut for me.

Gorgeous outfit. The apple design is so cute, and your red lips work so well! I'm so jealous you have bare legs, it's frosty outside right now, I can't even imagine going out without tights on!

I love you in the spring and summer but i think fall is your season. every outfit has been perfect for whatever you're doing. I give you credit for the bare legs girl, I've already given up on that idea. I draw the line at 50 degrees. haha :) MISS YOU! <3

Kirstin said...

I think my favourite part of your blog is that all your outfits are so wearable and real. Some outfits that bloggers wear I would have a hard time wearing in public everyday but you are a true inspiration because of your beautiful simplicity! I love your fall photos!
