Capsule series #45 - A late summer's evening

It feels good to be home again, missed you all. Recent times have been busy, and looking forward to going out for dinner with DH tonight.

During the day, temperatures are still very warm, but the evenings are getting cooler already, with the promise of autumn in the air. A shawl is a great companion for an alfresco dinner, it gives warmth as the evening goes on, while adding a touch of casual glamour.

  7. I could just kick myself for not buying this stole when they had my best colors available. It also seems to be one of Hermès' "bargains." Can I use that word with H? ;-)

  13. Hello there twin! You look at ease and elegant as usual and I am ready to bring out the light cashmeres for fall as well! September is a lovely time of year and I have been enjoying the collier knot with tank tops for the warmer days. Hope you are well and DS settled in for the school year. xox L.
