CARRIE: This falling leaves idea may be a little premature as no leaves are falling or even changing color, for that matter, but you get the idea.








MORGAN: just some autum-colored patterns

urban outfitters

MORGAN: i admit, i have been looking for an excuse to post this image...i simply love it...and since it is from the Urban Outfitters Fall 2009 Preview catalog, I thought I could share this week :)

Fall flavors

CARRIE: I have to say that one of my favorite things about fall is the food. The flavors of apples and pumpkin and cinnamon and earthly vegetables get me excited to get into the kitchen. A place I love looking for kitchen inspiration is smittenkitchen.com. The recipes are great and the descriptions and photos make just browsing the site enjoyable, too. Also, she has a helpful list of recipes divided by season to get you in the autumn cooking mood. Recipe photos from smittenkitchen posted above (top to bottom): simplest apple tart, brussel sprouts and chestnuts in brown butter, apple pancakes and pumpkin waffles.

faux bois

MORGAN: From stationery, to home accessories to iphone covers, the woodgrain trend seems to be here to stay. In order from top to bottom: Wedding Invitation from marthastewartweddings.com, Martha Stewart Faux Bois for FLOR, woodgrain folders from MoMA, woodgrain rug from West Elm, and the Hunter Gatherer incase and arkitip woodgrain cases (found on It's(K)notWood)!

CARRIE: Some fall home decor to cozy up your space.

wishlist: fall fashion pairings

MORGAN: ok, so cooler weather and leaves changing color are great and all...but, when I think fall, I can't help but think about the fashion! I love switching to autumn colors and new shapes! Soooo, I got online and did some wishful shopping!! First stop; Anthropologie (all clothing above from there) and then, second stop; Endless.com where I did a little accessorizing with Frye & Nine West! So there it is, my fall fashion wishlist!

switching to autumn

CARRIE: Even though I love summer, I am always ready for fall. It's my favorite time of year and the season is constantly inspiring. Photos from flickr.

CARRIE: This band of weirdos is up to no good.
