The Edit | Luxe Fabrics and Hunt Country Warmth from Tuckernuck’s Fall Collection 2025
Tuckernuck’s Fall 2025 collection captures everything I love about the season—refined, comfortable pieces in sumptuous fabrics and warm, golden tones that echo Virginia’s countryside in autumn.

The Edit | Equestrian Elegance: My Favorite Brooks Brothers Picks for Fall 2025
This season, Brooks Brothers’ Fall 2025 collection effortlessly bridges classic refinement with subtle equestrian flair—exactly the kind of style that feels at home in Virginia’s hunt country.

Paired with their perfectly cut trousers or a soft cashmere turtleneck, each look feels polished without losing that sense of ease that defines true country elegance.
Until Next Year, Summer!
Ah, September 23, 2023 — the first official day of fall! While I’ve been slowly introducing fall content over the last few weeks on this blog and on my Instagram, I have been patiently waiting for this day to arrive like a child on Christmas morning. My closet has been cleared out and reorganized for this season, my Pinterest boards updated with new fall recipes to try, and our seasonal fall and Halloween-themed movie lists for the next few months have been updated. I’m currently sipping on a cup of Lavender Earl Grey tea (a personal favorite at this time of the year), I have a pumpkin chai candle lit on my desk, and I’m admiring the rain falling outside — I feel cozy and inspired. I plan on spending the rest of the day continuing to plan my fall content and I may do a spot of online shopping.

Little Luxuries I’m Loving This Fall
