Fall fashion has always been my favorite. We can layer up and get cozy, yet the weather is still moderate enough to bare some skin (thigh highs, yes!). At the beginning of every season, it’s really helpful (and fun) to acquire a few select wardrobe essentials to upgrade your looks for that season. Today we asked west coast writer Amy to share 4 Free People closet essentials that we’re loving this fall. Read More

Leaf Wall Décor, 2 Ways
Now that the leaves are just beginning to change color where we are in Philadelphia, it’s the perfect time to bring some into home as a form of décor.
