like rose, last week's talented guest blogger, my love for shoes began when i was just a little girl. although i have to admit, that i was certainly not as pragmatic as she, as my love for frilly inappropriate shoes began in my dress up box, not on the playground or at the state fair. i would spend hours and hours in a little fantasy world pretending i was a princess or a super hero, or a famous chef or just someone fabulous. however, the one constant of these personalities was that they always donned one magnificent pair of shoes - gifted to me by rose's great aunt barb. and they looked a little something like these (although, kick me if they were $700 valentinos!)the super fantastic, and super talented kayla mellen (designer of the super fabulous invitations for the superburbs bachelorette weekend) has done it again - although this time, she is taking her talents live.
check out her recently launched website. it's super fabulous and pretty darn inspirational as well. whether you are looking for an invitation to your next autumnal dinner party, or a way to brand your new business - you have just got to check it out!
there is so much talent here in our little state of vermont, i can't stand it!
ok, this may be a brunch table scape, but it still works in my book! just substitute wine for mimosas (or don't...) i am also in LOVE with the milk bottles.

and if you feel like going really big...how about this dreamy barn setting? shut the front door. amazing.

so, on that dreamy note...i am off! happy weekend to you all! XOXO
i am on the slow boat this week and as a result was all set to skip over wine wednesday and jump right into thursday's post. that is, until i came across this adorable wine accessory. what a great gift idea for the wine lover in your family (and c'mon, you know we all have one!)

i've been known - like many of you i'm sure - to get lost in the magical cyber shopping world known as etsy. and today, thanks to the many lovely crafters out there, my virtual closet has been filled with warm, cozy, handknit masterpieces.
some of my favorites...
how yummy is this raspberry color?!
and i just love these major cables.
see? contrary to popular belief, a giant aztec wool sweater CAN be sexy. thank you, marilyn.

um, so this is heaven, in knit form. i mean, a giant cream colored hood - what could be better?

first of all, i must begin this post with a huge apology. i have to apologize for the fact that it's already tuesday night and i am only just now telling you about vermont's very own eat local week. oh the shame i feel, i can't even tell you.
thursday, september 16
today is a big day here in vermont.
today is the day that mr. frederickson turns the big 3-0!

and cozy fall picnics with spiced cider and apple snacks...
and of spending sunday afternoon at the small farm food fest at shelburne orchards looking just as stylish as she does...

so, i feel i have no choice other than to embrace this new obsession and therefore pass it along to you all. so, i apologize in advance, but the next few weeks are going to be all about apples here at lovevermont. it is a fleeting, but important season and one that i want to celebrate while we can....after all, it will be pumpkin season before we know it. (although to be fair, pumpkin season just might trump apples, but only time will tell!)
p.s. did you know the average person eats 65 apples per year? seriously, they do. start counting!
*this line is from one of the best new england movies of all time - good will hunting. and while i thought the prhase was perfect for this blog post, to be honest, i still don't really understand what that phrase means. any insight would be much appreciated.
