Mood Board | September 2013

In labeling today’s post, I accidentally typed “Temptember” instead of September. I’m not sure why — Freudian slip in oogling the collage below, perhaps — but I almost left it as such. Seems more than appropriate for this time of year, right? Should I e-mail Hallmark?!

With Fashion Week, the turn of the season and a new wave of trends splashing across the web (and in print), it’s hard not to obsess over the latest and greatest style seemingly at our fingertips.

Instead of fast-tracking my way to credit card debt, I’m focusing on a wardrobe revamp by updating my closet with a few key pieces that will breathe life into the rest of my outfits. In the cooler-weather months to come, I’m feeling jewel tones, minimalism and monochromatic palettes.

Here’s what’s inspiring me for September:
