Hello readers! I like to rant about consumerism, but guess what!? I do buy stuff, and today’s the day that I share about some of my recent purchases and my fall / winter wardrobe as I succumb to the reality of colder weather setting in ♡

The seasons may have officially turned back in September, but here in Wisconsin, this past weekend is when fall *officially* arrived, with gusty winds, steely skies and temps in the low 50’s. I knew it was coming, and have been slowly preparing my wardrobe for the shift, including making a fun new mushroom-patterned skirt this weekend!1
