The Pashmina

I'm usually a little slow trying out trends that I like which is really too bad because by the time I actually try them they are out of style! No matter, I have decided I really do like the look of scarves and I finally dug out two scarves I got in London a couple years. I've paired them with a few different tops and I want to hear which combos you like the best! And I hope you enjoy the background (my oh-so-lovely bathroom!).

OK, I realize this post has also been a bit of a doozy but I'm still new to this and I promise things will get better! Next post: my Christmas presents!

Rory: The New Girl on the Block

Well, I am horrible with introductions so lets just cut to the chase... My name is Rory and this is my fashion blog: I Dream of Sugar Plum Fairies. Feel free to comment or link me and I'll be sure to do the same! I wanted to start of with a series of 'Get to Know Me' posts so this first post shows some of my favourite fall/winter wear. All pictures from Urban Outfitters.
The Cardigan: versatile, cozy and a ton of selection - who wouldn't love the cardigan?! Whether you're throwing it on over a t-shirt for some extra warmth or using it as the finishing touch to a super cute mini dress, you can never have too many cardigans!

The Coat: I started on my coat obsession a few years ago with a fabulous knee length, blue plaid coat. I've added more coats to my collection since then - the most recent being a cream colored baby doll style coat. If you want to turn heads, go for a bold and beautiful or patterned trench or blend into the crowd with a warm and cozy neutral.
The Mini Dress: dress it up or dress down - a mini dress can be great for any occasion depending how you wear it! Black leotards are the most common choice this season but it's really up to you how you choose to wear it!
The Graphic T: OK, OK, so, it's not really a trend but graphic t's happen to be my guilty obsession. There's really not much to say about these but you gotta love the one on the far right!

Reading over this I realize it sounds a little over exaggerated and peppy - don't worry, it will soon wear off. I think it's just the newness of entering the blogosphere. And from here on in, I promise these posts will get a million times better. Merry Christmas, everyone!
