Lucy and Lambie

Doc McStuffins and the gang

My Mom (Lucy's Mumsie) came across the most adorable show when she was looking after Lucy one morning while I worked. Doc McStuffins is this really sweet and entertaining cartoon on Disney Jr. about a really nice little girl who is a toy doctor. The characters are cute and funny without being too sappy, the storylines have a moral but are still really amusing,  and I think I enjoy the show (and the catchy songs) almost as much as Lucy does. 

Her eyes completely light up whenever Lambie, one of Doc's little friends, comes on the screen. I am not sure if it is because Lambie is so cute and cuddly, or because she is more or less Lucy's animated TV twin, but Lucy is a huge fan.

Necklaces and Knobs

Jewelry Display

I love the idea of displaying your prettiest necklaces on almost as pretty knobs.

Here are some fun combos and where to get 'em.

All Necklaces / All Knobs 

And, while I am on the subject of necklaces, I don't think I will EVER get over the incredibly sparkly double diamond strand that Gwyneth Paltrow wore in Country Strong  (such a good movie... almost makes me a country music fan and DEFINITELY made me a Garrett Hedlund fan). 

Check out that necklace

I found a similar faux version here.

A Proper Picnic

Picnic

The weather was so gorgeous today that Patton, Lucy, Goalie and I ended up spending the afternoon lolling under the weeping willows by the river. I wish I had planned in advance so we could have had a proper picnic. 

If the weather is as nice next weekend, we're going to picnic, for sure. I will definitely bring the beautiful quilt my little sisters, Marisa and Katie, gave me for my wedding shower a million years ago. It's a fabulous patchwork of tropical prints and chambray, and it makes me happy every time I look at it. My sisters were both in school at the time and it means so much to me that they saved up to get Patton and me something so pretty. We originally used it as  a bedspread, but over the years it has become our favorite beach and picnic blanket and I hope it lasts forever.

Here's some other Picnic-worthy Stuff:

Basics - Navy Blazer

Essential item number three for a go anywhere fall wardrobe is, in my opinion, the classic navy blazer... all the better if it has shiny gold buttons.

Here are five ways to rock the preppy must-have this Autumn:

1. With a grey t-shirt, a delicate necklace, cropped skinny jeans and ladylike heels

2. Like a total princess, with a colorful scarf, white tank top, bright colored denim, VERY shiny hair and a sparkling smile

3. With a flirty ballet pink skirt, striped boat neck tee and pointy pumps

4. With a hooded sweatshirt, dark rinse jeans and a slouchy hobo bag

5. With a classic white shirt, denim mini skirt, lather satchel and suede fringed booties
