Tracks on the water

The golden light, the subtle warm breeze, temperatures in their 60s, wearing cardigans yet riding with the windows down... ah yes, autumn is finally here. I couldn't be more excited. The only things I've accomplished from my bucket list so far are... wear flannel and watch the entire Back to the Future trilogy (that was a lazy Sunday!) But it's supposed to be perfect outside this entire week and I have lots of fall plans for this upcoming weekend! I'm hoping to knock out a fourth of the list in one amazing day!


Hm, not much else is really new besides the fact that I adore autumn and it's my favorite time of year. Work is great. I'm having fun with friends. Eric is wonderful. My apartment is a mess. But, I'm finally back into the idea of fixing up and decorating my place. I've been going Pinterest crazy and have an entire IKEA wishlist of items I want. My biggest priorities are to fix up the entryway and dining room. I'd love to have people over for dinners and movies, but it's just so impossible right now. Finishing this apartment is definitely a winter goal of mine. Then spring... puppy time?!


When I originally planned this outfit, I wanted to take pictures somewhere deep in a forest. It's probably just because ModCloth always tricks me with their clever titles for clothing items. Hah! But Eric brought me to these railroad tracks a few months ago and I loved it, so I was happy to come back with him! amykathryn sent me this gorgeous Jasmine Sienna bag. The colors are so perfectly autumn and I love how organized I can be with all of the zippers and pockets!


Outfit details:
Forest Fete tunic c/o ModCloth
Aldo tights
Jasmine Sienna bag c/o amykathryn
Seychelles Hawk wedges

Oh, those tights with those shoes! Just great!

We're working on home improvement as a goal this week too- the bedroom and living room being the two biggest priorities right now.

Fantastic bag! I'm so jealous that you can break out your Fall clothes. I just moved to San Diego where it was in the 90's one day. Ok, ok...I shouldn't complain, but am so over sweating. Ha ha! Have a great day! Amanda

Mrs. A said...

Gorgeous! Love the shoes, the bag, the whole thing. Love these shots too!

I think shirt dresses are so pretty & versatile - especially in fall & winter, when you can layer them like crazy! This one is super pretty, and the green color looks lovely on you.

These photos are gorgeous and I'm completely envious of the temperature there. It's been in the high 80s every day for the past month. I wish it would just get cold already! FL weather sucks.

That location is SO cool! And the golden light is magical.

I love your style year round Tieka, but I have to say your love of Autumn is starting to rub off on me. I used to think Summer was the best time of year and I have to say that, fashion wise, I'm starting to se your point of view!
