Well, it has officially been a full year since my first Monthly Mood Ring and, in that time, I got a steady job, moved out of my parent’s house, and forged ahead on my own. It feels like a much shorter amount of time, so I am excited to see where I (and this little blog) am at in another year’s time. Looking back to see what I was crushing on a year ago, I realize that while my life has changed, my tastes haven’t whatsoever. Comforting, no? Well, as you peruse this month’s favorites, think about how you’ve changed this year and, if you feel like it, let me know in the comments!
- The Anniversary: Unmistakably classic jewelry company Tiffany & Co. is celebrating their 175th anniversary this month. Personal taste is a moot point, as there is no girl in the world who can resist the little blue box.
- The Returns: This month two of my favorite vintage shows resume: Boardwalk Empire and Downton Abbey (only in the UK for now). Can’t wait for hours of Twenties goodness!
- The Exhibition: My very favorite fashion house, Chloé, is celebrating their 60th anniversary with Chloé Attitudes, a Parisian exhibition dedicated to their stylish history.
- The Idol: This month famed author Judy Blume announced her struggle with breast cancer, and like so many girls who grew up worshipping her and her amazing young characters, my thoughts are with her!
- The Shade: The hottest lip color for Fall is a deep bordeaux, a definite revival from the Nineties and definitely one of my all-time favorite fashion looks. Goth-chic never goes out of style when done right.
