Under the Yellow Tree

by

November 4, 2011




This tree has since dropped every single one of these pretty yellow leaves. I was hoping they’d hang on for longer, but I think the snowstorm wasn’t too kind to the leaves this year.

The changing seasons always remind me of wabi-sabi (the fleetingness of all things). Fall is the only season I’ve never seen in Japan and I’d love to go and stay for the entire season. I imagine it’s even more beautiful than winter and spring. All the red maple trees must look amazing.

Yesterday’s Gone

This is what I ended up wearing on my birthday.  It’s a relatively new dress, been worn a few times but never made it in front of the camera.  I still haven’t decided if I like the draping thing in front of the skirt yet… should I sew it up into the waistband?  Does it look sort of Roman or just sort of apron (although aprons are big at Anthropologie right now)?
