A Look at Fall Foliage

Reason #34523974283 I love my husband: his sense of adventure and constant search of fun things to do.  Last month when Mike and I were in Connecticut, we had a couple of hours to kill before his dad's surprise birthday party.  He knows how much I miss the foliage, so we spent a little time driving around, and all of a sudden, he pulls a u-turn with an "I've got it!!"  We drove up a few streets and ended up at a familiar dead end, the trail to the vista.
Seriously, how amazing is this view of the foliage and the city of Hartford?  It was almost exactly 5 years since we last went to that spot.  Back then, we had just started living together, and obviously my phone was awful - haha!  We walked around, took a few photos, and had so much fun reminiscing about living in New England.
I love this time of year to get to bust out my favorite jean jacket.  Usually, it's with a bright pair of ankle pants, but I obviously dressed it up a bit more for the party.  You can shop my look here:

Gorgeous! Okay, Target is killing it with their shoe game lately. Multiple people have posted different boots/booties from Target and I always think they look so expensive and fancy!

I'm just drooling at all the fall foliage! It's so beautiful, and I'm so glad that your husband took the time to make sure that you were able to see all the fall that you wanted!

Who doesn't love a Jean jacket? It pairs great with everything...except jeans!

Ah, pretty leaves! I still haven't seen the leaves really start to change around my house... hoping the cooler weather this week starts to turn them. At least we'll have a pretty Thanksgiving this year? Maybe? Happy Wednesday!

What is the Fall, you speak of?! I kid, I kid. I do miss it - we grew up in New York, but moved to Florida when I was 12, so I miss it too.

Love that jean jacket! I'm badly in need of one. And I miss how pretty the leaves get in the north. We don't get much of it in Charleston :(
