Happy Weekend, lovelies!

Living here in London has been an amazing experience to say the least. It hasn’t completely gone my way or been easy but it has challenged me in the best way possible. It’s also just been nice to be somewhere completely different than where I am from and what I am used to. One of my favorite parts has been watching the slow transition from Summer to Fall, and I am now experiencing serious heartbreak every morning I walk out and see that the trees have less and less leaves on them, signaling that Winter is coming and my time here in London is almost up. 

These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago in Weybridge when the leaves had just started to fall and I was just SO. HAPPY. I wish Florida looked like this in the Fall! And, I feel like my outfit inadvertently matches the background, hah! This lightweight sweater is just under $60 and a great one to throw on for a weekend get together or when you need to run a few errands! Don’t miss these booties, too. They’re one of my favorite purchases from the past couple of months! 

What are your weekend plans? Whitney and I enjoyed a sushi dinner last night at our favorite, Sticks N Sushi! I’m going to miss that place so much!! Then, tonight … we’re heading out to Battersea Park to enjoy the fireworks for one of the many Guy Fawkes firework shows! Have you ever heard the saying ‘remember, remember the 5th of November’? That came out of this holiday observed here in London for the failure of the Gunpowder Plot, put together by Mr. Fawkes, that was meant to blow up the Houses of Parliament and assassinate King James I. Little history lesson for ya on this Saturday morning .. 😉 Hah! So, yeah, exciting to be here in London today!

I’ll be starting the whole packing up process tomorrow, unfortunately .. but just trying to enjoy every last minute I have here! Have a great Saturday, lovelies! And, thank you so much for stopping by! xo.

SALE ALERT | Nordstrom is having an amazing Fall Clearance Sale with SO many amazing items that are up to 40% off!

    Love this fall look! I also love that you are wearing white jeans. I never follow the no white after Labor Day rule either 🙂

      Hey Ada, the brand of the coat is Topshop. Topshop is a brand 🙂 The one I purchased and am wearing is not available on Nordstrom’s website or on Topshop’s website. The one I linked is the most similar. Just so you know, if an item I’m wearing IS available … I will always link it. I only ever link similar if the item is sold out OR is very expensive and readers may appreciate a more affordable, similar option. xo!

    Hi, Haley! I loved watching your Snapchat posts and my friend is visiting London in ten days and I couldn’t recall the app you mentioned for finding your way around, you said it was a life saver and I scoured the blog and cannot find it there either. Help! Thank you!
