Elegant Fall Entry

Welcome to my home!  I’m using warm and cool tones together…colors I’ve never used before and I’m soooo loving it! I went to the Hot Skwash design studio in Tigard, Oregon (just across the river) and sat with Daria to design and plan what we wanted to do for my entry.

But let me pause for a brief moment and let me point out my new favorite moto jacket.  It’s less than $50 and this khaki color is so gorgeous right?!  The quality is beautiful and fits so nicely.  Just perfect with the fall, especially layered over with this tank I purchased over the summer (sold out but similar look here). It would look cute over so many different tops.

Back to my pumpkins…

We chose to use these colors for our entry color scheme: Spa, Wedgewood, Latte, and Bone. 
To see the different sizes they’re made in and decide what sizes you want, you can click here.

A few weeks ago, I found these gorgeous gold eucalyptus stems, golden glittered faux money plant stems, and glittered beaded branches to replace all the cherry blossom stems that were in my ginger jars for spring and summer.

We added a couple of 4″ beaded pumpkins to adorn the arrangement and add a little something special.

I had a few gold ferns from last year’s stash as well I threw on the ends.

At the top of my staircase is a beautiful jumbo feathered pumpkin in “Cashew” and a 5″ Spa-colored pumpkin next to it.

I love this tall gold lantern.

I remembered I bought a dozen gold candle wreaths from World Market on clearance last year at the end of the season for less than a dollar each.  They were perfect for the tall gold lantern below and for this candle on the table also.  These jumbo velvet pumpkins with feathers from Hot Skwash are delicious, aren’t they?!

These chinoiserie panels make me swoon every time I walk up these stairs!

I love using furs in the fall and winter when decorating.  Throw a fur throw over a bench with a trio of pumpkins and it’s a perfect vignette. Easy peasy.

More pumpkins in Bone, Spa, and Wedgewood.

I love this view!  When we first moved in and received this chandelier from Bellacor, all 4 feet of it took my breath away. It’s coastal glam vibe with the mother of pearl, white wooden beads, and champagne finish was so perfect.  Every time we walk up and down the stairs or in and out the door, it makes me smile.  And now that it’s fall and the entry is adorned with pumpkins…I’m smiling extra big!

 

 

Elegant Fall Living Room

Last week I shared my Elegant Fall Mantel & Living Room In Gray & Gold tour.

I collaborated with Hot Skwash again this year to create the most beautiful scene of pumpkins on my coffee table and on my mantel.  Please click HERE to see my full post on my living room details.

 

Elegant Fall Kitchen

I originally had a few small pops of blush in my white and gold kitchen for fall but after setting my fall table, it just didn’t work with the blush in the background so I took it out.  So, white and gold it is and I’m loving it!  I have plenty of it, that’s for sure!

 

 

I cut some of this new beaded garland (I’ve bought a bunch of it for the holidays…it’s so pretty) and put it in this snack bowl with the pumpkin and loved the way it looked.

 

Find pieces, like cutting boards and metal wreaths or stands, that you love and layer them.

 

 

I used some of that beaded garland here too on this jumbo pumpkin by Hot Skwash. I love it!

 

The beautiful ornate hurricane on my mirrored tray.  It was a fun find at Ross. Can you believe it?! I just love it!

 

 

 

 

Elegant Fall Table

Earlier this week I shared my Elegant Fall Table in Gold, Ivory & Soft Aqua.

You can read that entire post for more details and to see the collection of limited edition Hot Skwash pumpkins here and here) that I used for this table, as well as all of the other pieces to create this look.

It was also a treat to add these gorgeous Aquarius goblets from my friends at Patina Vie.  I love creating fall tables with all of these beautiful details!

  

Elegant Fall Master Bedroom

I kept my blush pink velvet bedding for fall and winter and faux fur accents.

I brought my blush pink velvet pillows, also by Hot Skwash, from last year’s fall table and used them up in my room (and also Brooklyn’s room which I haven’t photographed yet).

I also brought up a few ivory pumpkins.  I thought they’d look so cute on my blush pink ottoman.

 

 

These mini pumpkins with Swarovski crystals are the prettiest for just the smallest, prettiest fall accents around my room!

In my sitting chair corner, it’s the coziest little seat with faux fur and pink pumpkins and I keep my favorite slippers there.  This is where I often sit to write in my gratitude journal.  There’s a lot of reflection that happens here!  And this sweater, by the way, is so soft and comfy for fall and winter!  I love the camel and blush colors in it too!

 

Pretty pumpkins adorn either end of my dresser and I love waking up and seeing them all each morning!

 

 

Each nightstand also has pink pumpkins.  I didn’t photograph my chaise lounge here in my bedroom!  But…there are some on my tray there too so I’ll need to update this post with a picture.  I just love the pumpkins!   I literally place them wherever I can in the bedroom and I’m so grateful my husband doesn’t mind all the pink because I sure enjoy it!

It’s here, it’s here! Our favorite shopping event of the year (next to Black Friday) is FINALLY here! I look forward to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale all year long and if you do too, or even if you don’t, you’re in the right place because I’m always on top of the sale.  I’ll be on Instagram each day (follow along on my stories) to let you know restock alerts on my favorite things and hottest items.  Things will sell out and then be re-stocked so make sure to set your alerts for when I post and I’ll keep you updated because I check constantly during the entire sale. I’ve got your back ladies.

WHEN DOES THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE 2019 START?

The sale starts for Nordstrom card holders (it’s called “Early Access”) on Friday the 12th. If you haven’t signed up for a card you still can so you can get early access to the sale before it opens to the public on July 19th and runs through August 4th. Sign up for a card here. Also if you haven’t checked out the catalog yet, take a peek here to see some of the pieces styled.

So let’s get right to it, shall we?!! These are my top picks in home, fashion, accessories, beauty, shoes and more.

The post Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2019 Shopping Guide appeared first on Summer Adams.

Today I’m joining 6 other bloggers to share the loveliest looks of fall, from home decor to fashion.  We’re so glad you’re here with us!

full disclosure policy and here for my privacy & cookies policy.  All opinions are my own.

Fall Front Porch

It’s just now starting to cool down here in the Pacific Northwest.  I still loved my front door wreath from spring and summer so I added mini white pumpkins and switched out some florals to turn this into the perfect little fall wreath for my front door.  I kept my fern in their white planters too since they matched my wreath and I can’t make my pumpkin urn topiary until I get some much bigger white pumpkins.

It’ll be another couple of weeks until all the farmers open up their farms for hayrides and fun but I found a farmer nearby who had a handful of white pumpkins they were willing to let me take.  I was so thrilled!

Fall Entry

There are so many pretty ways to style pumpkins.  In my front entry, I decided to grab a bunch of sparkly, glass and velvet pumpkins, as well as some pretty faux fall roses to create a lovely romantic fall vignette.

I also added small touches of fall with fall votive candles and small ceramic pumpkins to my cozy faux fur settee in the front entry.

I love this dress!  It’s the perfect dress for taking you into the fall because you can roll up the sleeves or keep them down for extra cool days.  I wore it to church recently and then came home to get baking.  Fall is my favorite because I immediately pull out my fall recipes and make all of our favorite things and try new ones as well with fresh pears, apples, and peaches…..and then pumpkin puree.  They all make the best treats and the house smells amazing.  We’re so lucky to live around so many local farms where we can find the best produce and pick it ourselves too.

I love to bake on most Sundays after church and cook a big family dinner. Come into my kitchen and let me tell you more!

Fall Baking

On any Fall Sunday, I’ll kick off my heels and change into a comfy sweatshirt and sweatpants and get baking.  This Diet Coke sweatshirt is soooo comfy and my new favorite sweatshirt lately.  I have another few comfy favorites I’ll share at the end of this post as well in my “shop the post” section, so make sure to look for that.

One of our favorite fall desserts is my Apple Peach Crisp with vanilla ice cream.  It is sooooo delicious and your house will smell amazing while it’s in the oven!

Our other favorite is this Pumpkin Spice Waffle Dessert Bar because they’re soooo yummy…

…AND you can also make them into dessert sandwiches or even ice cream sandwiches.  They’re so simple and your family and friends will go crazy over them!  Even our friends who don’t care for pumpkin-flavored treats love this recipe!

Fall Kitchen & Dining

I made very small but elegant fall touches to my dining table and kitchen.  Mercury glass pumpkins are always a perfect thing to use on a tray with maybe a fall candle and some fresh flowers.

I love when you can find eucalyptus in the stores this time of year to add to your fresh flowers.  Then you know it’s fall.

{Because I know you’ll ask about them…one of my most popular posts is for these DIY Gold Canisters.}

Another subtle touch is adding your white pumpkin soup tureens and other like-pieces to your glass cabinets.

Fall Mantel & Living Room

I kept the mantel simple for fall this year.  With our television above the fireplace, I have learned to decorate around it but I also wanted to create a blush pink glam fall mantel and take out all the blues I had added in this space earlier this spring and summer.

On the other end I used these pretty candles with my DIY blush glam fall candle wreaths and I love how it all came together.  I also swapped out pieces on coffee table for new blush vases and a pretty pumpkin.

Instead of blush pink and blue pillows, I removed the blue (don’t worry….I’ll be using blue again soon, hint hint) and added beiges to bring in a cozier feel with the blush pinks.  I’m really liking it.  It immediately warms things up and is a lovely look for the fall.

Faux fur throw pillows and throw blankets are a fabulous way to add a cozy touch for fall and an extra touch of elegance.

Fall Master Bedroom

I’ll be sharing all the details and more pics of my master bedroom next week.  I have partnered with Pom Pom At Home to create a cozy and romantic vibe for our fall master bedroom.  Please make sure to check back then to see the entire room!

One of the best things about fall is getting nice and warm in some comfy fall pajamas.  I’m not much of a flannel girl but I do love some soft fuzzy pj’s or something like this gorgeous satin top and bottom.  If they’re pretty in pink, it’s a no-brainer for me.  I had to have these when I saw them.  I’m obsessed. Can I just live in these all fall?  They’re best for catching up on work before bed with a lit candle and then watching some of our favorite shows.

The post Loveliest Looks Of Fall Tour appeared first on Summer Adams.

As the temperatures cool down, that means one thing for us women.  We start bringing out our fabulous fall fashion and shoes! Scarves, handbags, sweaters, denim…So here are a few fabulous shoe finds for the fall and winter!  I think you’re going to love them!

Unless you’re living under a rock, you are probably well aware that Nordstrom had their Anniversary Sale that ended last month.  I shared all my favorites HERE. One of the {many} things I purchased during the sale were these fabulous shoes below…

These Laurel Peep-toe booties, with their touching, light grey suede, and peep-toe won my heart right away.

I’ve already worn them with jeans, skirts, a swing dress…they’re so versatile and so comfortable!

I’m embarrassed to say I own a lot of little black booties.  But they’re all so pretty and unique in their own way.  I found these recently at TJ Maxx and, again, had a peep-toe and were super sexy so I had to get them.  Like the others above, I can dress them up or dress them down.  I’ll share some like them at the end of the post.

As a mom, I run around picking kids up from different schools, run to dance and cheer and soccer and scouts and church activities.  I’m kind of like a bus driver but I know y’all can relate.  And every bus driver needs comfy shoes right?  Well, I need some cute, slip-on everyday shoes and these blush ones are perfect (so I bought them in a few different colors).  Even better, they’re waterproof, which is PERFECT since we live in the Pacific Northwest and it rains a lot in the fall and winter.

However, when it does NOT rain, I can have a little more fun with these satin blush slip-on sneakers!

Aren’t they darling?!  Wear them with a cute pair of jeans with a rolled cuff and a darling tee or top and you’re taking your “mom attire” to a much more fashionable level.

I love them.

Friday afternoons we get home from picking up the kids at school and then a couple hours later it’s Date Night for me and the hubby.  Whether I’m wearing jeans or a skirt, a little black dress or even leggings, these leopard booties are just the fun pair of sassy shoes I need to spice things up a bit.  Aren’t they fabulous?!  Leopard never goes out of style in my book!

I’m linking these fabulous shoes below, using affiliate links, for your convenience!  I’m also adding some similar picks that I think y’all will like!

The post A Few Fabulous Shoe Finds For The Fall & Winter appeared first on Summer Adams.

September is here!  For many of you, depending on where you live, you are starting to see temperatures start to drop a little.  Ok, maybe not if you’re here in The South, but still…cooler temps are right around the corner.  You know what that means!  Time to pull out the scarves, boots, wool hats and changing your handbags.  If you visited my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale post here this summer, you probably found lots of goodies!  Today I’m going to share with you some of my favorite fall handbags of 2016.  Oh, and I added a few fabulous wallets too!

As much as I love my aqua Kate Spade handbag and other fun, bright-colored handbags, it’s time to put them back in your closet.  Bring out the greys, wines, blacks and other fall-colored bags.  It seems these stylish handbags below are all on trend this fall.  I don’t switch out my handbag every day like I did when I was younger, but I get really bored with the same handbag if I carry it too long.

I love that blush and white is still “acceptable” for the fall.  Winter white is the tone you should use when choosing fall handbags and not a stark, summery white.  A pretty camel bag is a staple in my fall handbags.

You can still use bold colors.  Try like royal blue, reds and wines, greens and even muted tones. This year, a bold splash of color is definitely on trend amongst the designers.

I love the textures like suede on some of my fall handbags.  I love the faux snake handbags, ostrich, and all the pretty leathers.

via Alwayz Fashionably Late

I have a weakness when it comes to bows and other embellishments.  They always catch my eye.

via Baubles To Bubbles

But I always love a classic black bag as well!

Have you found the perfect fall handbag yet?  If so, let me know what it is!  I’d love to see!  If not, I hope you found a fall handbag here that you like.
