Apple Picking

Hello Lovelies,
My family and I went away for the weekend to our favorite spot by the ocean. It was a lovely weekend weather-wise, but it was also great to just get away and not think about work or school or any other responsibilities. I probably ate my bodyweight in the yummiest food and had too much fun wandered around the cute little boutiques and specialty shops in the area. We all need weekends like that, no?

On the way home, we stopped by a local apple orchard to pick some fresh apples and also grab a few pumpkins.I still can't believe it's nearly pumpkin carving season! Where does the time go?! As usual, we also got some fresh apple cider and - my favorite - apple cider donuts! They're so sugary and melt-in-your-mouth delicious, it's hard to eat just one!

These floral pants are one of my favorite finds at Forever21 this year. The boots I got last year and just recently had a near fatal hot oil spill on them {and on my legs, but shoes are so much more important than body parts, am I right? ;) }. Thanks to a few DIY Get-Oil-Out-Of-Boots recipes, they were victorious and I'll be getting another season's of wear out of them!

Apple picking is definitely one of my favorite Fall traditions. What're your favorite traditions? I'd love to hear about them!

Fallin' in Love

Hey, hey lovelies!
Long time no talk! Have I really not blogged since April? Oh dear! It's been a whirlwind of a summer and I think I'm just now catching my breath. Just in time for another crazy season. But, hey, I'm not complaining because around here the leaves are changing, the air's getting colder. It's officially Fall! And Fall is definitely my favorite season. I'm not sure if it's the pumpkin-flavored-everything or fresh apples or just being able to sit outside and not completely melt {or freeze}, but I just can't get enough of it! I've also always loved fall fashion. There's something so chic about layering up a scarf, a cozy sweater, and those pants you've been waiting all summer to wear. No scarf in the look below, but I've certainly been loving this super-soft sweater, so much so that I just noticed it has a hole in it! Boo-hoo!

Outfit Details:
Sweater: Target
Polka-Dot Blouse: K-Mart
High Waisted Pants: PacSun
Shoes: TOMS Shoes
Studded Bag: Rue21
Watch: Rue21

What are your favorite parts about Fall?

PEPLUM + COLOR POP

Hello lovelies!
It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood today {cue Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood theme song} and actually felt a bit like spring! Hurray!
I saw The Host today with some friends. I had pretty high expectations because I really enjoyed the book, but sadly the movie wasn't my favorite. I felt like they went through the storyline so quickly and everything happened all at once.

Anyways, here's what I wore! It wasn't quite warm enough to go without a jacket, but I really loved the sleeves on my top so I froze for most of the day! ;)

{Jacket - Hollister}
{Perplum Top - Rue21}
{Pants - Walmart (can you believe it?!)}
{Leopard Flats - TJ MAXX}

{Bag - Rue21}

{Necklace - Claire's}

I think this bag will become a staple in my spring/summer wardrobe! What's your favorite spring outfit?

EASTER!

Hello lovelies!
In typical Abigail fashion, I'm wishing you a happy Easter a couple days late (or maybe early for next year, hmm?). I hope your day was fabulous - mine sure was!

My family headed down to my Dad's side for the weekend which is always a good time. My Grandmother fills and hides eggs for all of us grandkids, no matter how old we are, and it never ceases to be the highlight of my Easter!  I got to see some cousins and aunts and uncles I hadn't seen in ages and just basically had tons of fun!
So, much fun that there really wasn't any time to take photos of my outfit, and I thought it was rather blog-worthy.
But thankfully, during the hunt, my Dad snapped some photos so you can get a peak at what I wore.

Well, I hope you enjoyed those rather awkward pictures! What are your favorite Easter traditions?

Business Cozy

Hello lovelies! 

I'd put this post up a few weeks ago when I first started blogging, but I took it down. And now. . .it's back!
I wore this outfit to a business meeting on a rather gross winter day. It was one of those days when laying in bed with a cup of tea and a cozy blanket is the only thing that sounds good; unfortunately, duty calls. Thank goodness the meeting was at a local cafe or else I would have really had to get dressed up! ;)

{Sweater - Tommy Hilfiger}
{Button Up - Forever21}
{Cords - Forever21}

{Don't mind my dead-looking feet.}
{Flats - TJ MAXX}

{Necklace - Forever 21}

What's your go-to outfit when your not feeling up to doing anything?
