A peek at Everly’s fall wardrobe

While I love naked babies and ruffley little sunsuits - I can’t help but feel completely ready for fall. After two years of temperatures that averaged in low 70’s in San Francisco - our first summer back in the NC heat was a little rough!

Last night I smelled someone burning leaves and wood and instantly I was hit with nostalgia for cool, autumn days - scarves and jewel tones and leggings!

I’ve been collecting pieces for Everly’s first fall since before she was born - I love mixing new pieces with old. Here are a few of my favorites:

Dress: vintage - ebay

Sweater: Gap Kids

Hat: gift - knitted from Kristen

tights: babylegs

shoes: gift from Bridget

Dress: Vintage, from Piratesbooty

Dress: Zara Kids (purchased on our trip to Spain!)

Scarf: Zara Kids

Hat: Another gift knitted by Kristen

Shoes: Gift from our friend Jill

Dress: Vintage, ebay

Sweater: Gap kids

Best ebay purchase ever! This beautifully made vintage coat cost me $5 off ebay. If only they made it in my size!

Dress: Vintage, from Piratesbooty

My favorite thing about vintage baby clothes - you’re almost guaranteed to have something one-of-a-kind and they’re usually half the price of brand new items. I don’t think I spent over $10 for any single vintage piece above.

Now- I’ve just got to work on my fall wardrobe, it’s no where near as cool as Everly’s.

Love,

M

Hello. I'm Melissa.

Wife to a rock n roll, super dad named Brent.

We're the adventuring type. Go. do. See.
We hit the jackpot when we had our daughter, Everly Veda in January 2010.
She has my eyes, his lips and a San Francisco heart.

In May 2011, we welcomed Arlo Redding, the most magical little dude ever into our family. His presence has made our good thing, even better.

We like old stuff and keeping it simple.
We believe in love, family and a good pair of cowboy boots.

Brent sings songs.
I write words.
And these sweet babies make our world go round.

Welcome.
