Well, it feels like fall…with a dose of rain. After a weekend of retail therapy, I decided I better stay away from shopping for a little while. Instead, I put together a little perfect fall collage – cozy clothes, shoes to keep my feet dry and make me smile, a latte or chai to keep my hands warm and breathe in, a good book or a letter to friends. I’m slowly getting back into my letter writing habit. It’s been way too long.
Have you read the Stieg Larsson books? What did you think? I’m just finishing up another (fascinating) one, but then I’ll switch to The Girl Who Played With Fire.
I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a 






















I love your collage. Awesome elements and well put together. I’m so into a good northern fall but living in SoCal there really is no such thing as fall. I guess the visual of it all become more romantic and charming to me because of that.
Hope you’re enjoying the rest of the BYW class.

Hi! Just found your blog (through blogging your way!), and I love this fall collage. Fall is my favorite, and that outfit is so put together, yet so cozy!
I read the Stieg Larsson books last month and LOVED them. They are really hard to put down once you’ve started
Love the collage, such a perfect autumn feeling to it.
I haven’t read the books but I’ve seen the movies (the first one was the best, the second and third were not as well made in my opinion but Noomi Rapace is amazing in each one of them! It will be interesting to see the American versions of the movies, I can’t imagine anyone else playing that part!)

Thanks for all of the nice comments. It was my first attempt with Polyvore – but it was fun! Hopefully will post more collages in the months to come.
Katja – I’ve only seen the first movie (since I want to read the books first)….but I, too, can’t really imagine/am sort of dreading the American versions. The book describes Mikael as so handsome, and initially I didn’t find the Swedish actor anything to write home about…but I came around to accepting him in the role, and wasn’t distracted by him as I would have been if he was George Clooney or something. I have a feeling they won’t really compare, but we’ll have to wait and see…
Love that chunky sweater – looks so comfy!

I read the first book, which was good, but that was enough for me. I mean, I liked it… I just didn’t want to sign on for more of the… um… shocking and disturbing writing. I may read the other two in the future, but I needed a break!
