Leopard for Fall.

It's hard to believe but fall is just around the corner! During fall my staples 
are boots and lots of layering (especially for the fluctuating weather we have 
in the DC metro area). I recently purchased this leopard shift dress and 
am excited to wear it this season in all sorts of different ways.





I'm wearing one of my favorite rings which I scored from Buffalo Exchange

 As soon as there is a chill in the air the booties come out! 


I'm all about the orange-y red lip these days. 

Enjoy this gorgeous, brisk weather, dolls!

Ecuador Travels.


I recently ventured to Ecuador to visit my parents who moved there to retire. Here are my photos. Enjoy, dolls! 

We began our trip in Cuenca and started with a bus tour. 

The old church's architecture was beautiful. 

There were lots of colorful murals, particularly outside of the schools. 


The New Cathedral's blue domes were striking.

The views at the highest point in Cuenca were gorgeous. 


Windswept and beautiful! 




We took the Devil's Nose train through the mountains.

Sadly, there were many stray dogs. This one was particularly adorable and sweet.

We stayed at an ecolodge in the Amazon rainforest. Can you say 'mosquito nets?'


We went to Banos which is famous for their waterfalls and volcanic hot springs.

Andrew contemplating his fate before jumping in a canyon. Eek! 

One of the most memorable sites was Crater Lake. It's vibrant blue hues are from minerals. 

It was a fantastic trip!
