currently | october edition

styling | our front porch for fall! last week, i picked up a wreath at michael’s for 60% off and took off the pieces that didn’t fit my style + put on some lighter pinks. i love the way it turned out so far. i am hoping to share more on here but i did give a sneak peek on instagram the other day. i also picked up some neutral pumpkins, a mum, and a few plants. last year, i made this wreath
saving | i am starting to sell lots and lots of things from our home (this month is going to be a full overhaul/purge- hopefully.) and am trying to decide what i want to save up for? … a piece of furniture (a couch and headboard are at the top of our list) or a trip? or savings? maybe a little of all three? or something else… also, what is your favorite site to sell used clothes on? thoughts on poshmark? (any tips if you use/enjoy?) 
searching | for the cooler weather… it’s been a little better in the carolinas but i can’t wait for it to be here for good. i am a cool weather lover- through and through. (because… i adore coziness + the fashion) i am also searching for things for my shop: olive june. there are many more cute things on the way. for all of you, please enjoy 10% off today with code: theolivejune (here if you need anything!) 
picking | up fresh flowers/food from the market and then hopefully going to an apple orchard with friends soon and an anticipated trip to a local pumpkin patch (or a few). 
making | i am still experimenting with a more plant-based/vegetarian diet – loving eggplants, lots of fresh veggies/hummus and smoothies/juices. 

the cleo dress + local apples
loving these colors 
i just got this, the marinna printed dress, yesterday and it’s seriously so much more beautiful in person. this is so perfect for fall photos + very soft! (and nursing friendly) remember, you can use ‘theolivejune’ for 10% off your order. 
-my current view/office-
there is also one in asheville, north carolina

…what are you currently loving…
thank you anne + dana for hosting

    Please share some of your favorite plant-based recipes! I have been trying to eat less meat and I am finding that I enjoy it more than meat recipes.

    Happy October Sweet Lady. Your pictures are always so dream. I love that marinna dress. I started decorating my front porch today, too. I love it but i'm wanting to add some mums to it, too. I just adore this time of year.

    I'm so bad about updating my porch for the seasons but love the idea – the one you made last year is so pretty! And that is a great "saving" idea for sure. I always like cleaning out, and it's a bonus if you can save up for something else in the process! I have just started using Poshmark and have been fairly happy with my results. I've sold probably 6-7 things in a month. I think pricing fairly low helps – I just want to get things cleaned out, and a few bucks is better than nothing, I figure.
