Rainy Daze
Happy Monday and October, friends! Can you believe it’s already the tenth month of the year?! Serious question: where did September go?? And speaking of September, it was a rainy end of the month for us in Northern Virginia. After having hardly any rain all summer, we got enough last week to more than make up for it. The one good thing about all this rain was the opportunity to break out my favorite rainy day gear: Hunter boots.
I wore this look for the drive to Pittsburgh over the weekend and it was the perfect combination of cute and comfortable. I’ve had a serious thing for plaid lately, so when I saw THIS tunic {it comes in a TON of colors!} I knew it would be a great shirt for fall. And it’s ridiculously soft — it feels like a sleep shirt! I paired it with my absolute favorite leggings {I have a workout and non-workout pair!} and my floppy hat — there was no point in styling my hair in the rain because it would have been curl city!
We are heading home from Pittsburgh today since it was a late night last night for Sunday Night Football! I always love going back to Pittsburgh, but it’s funny how much a city can change in such a short time. I lived in Pittsburgh for four years during college and in the past six years, I can’t get over the changes…for the better! There are SO many great restaurants that did not exist when I was there {which is probably for the best!} and so many things that I wasn’t able to enjoy while living there as a student.
Would you be interested in a city guide to Pittsburgh? My first post EVER on ABM was about Pittsburgh {you can read it HERE} and I feel like I could definitely update it with new and exciting things. Let me know in the comments or by e-mail if that’s something you would be interested in reading. Have a great start to the week and see you back here tomorrow for a yummy pumpkin recipe!

I'm glad you were able to squeeze these pictures in – I know the rain was crazy for all of us in the north!! I'm over it already LOL! I sort of wish I had bought red hunter boots instead of my blue ones – that bright pop of color is the best! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
