a pile of autumn

A typical day at William and Mary, playing in the leaves.
 
And that is because I am a TWAMP, or a Typical William and Mary Person.
 
TWAAAAAMP.

And you know what is really TWAMP-y? That my roommate Ari—in total sincerity—calls leaves “piles of autumn.” How perfectly W&M is that?

Both the sweater and the bag are from my recent Goodwill trip. Ahh…  The wonders of Goodwill. I may or may not be getting a job there if things don’t work out elsewhere. And you know what the most embarrassing part of working at Goodwill would be? That I would fricking LOVE it. I would adore every moment of my life spent in the presence of gently-worn clothes and secondhand housewares.

Ignore the random pieces of leaf on my head… is this slightly reminiscent of the styling from Lanvin Spring/Summer 2011 PFW? The second to last photo in this post… A little? …No? Hey, I tried.
 
All above photos taken by the fabulously fragrant Julia. Muchas gracias, chica.

Also, this random picture is of the Botetourt Barfing Pumpkin… Someone—I’m not sure who—was witty enough to carve this and I felt that it was highly appropriate in its placement so I decided to digitally applaud said person via this blog because I know that they must live in Botetourt. And I also know (because of many an awkward “So Rhiannon, I read your blog!”) that a surprisingly large fraction of Botetourt has secretly read this blog. So keep reading, Mystery Carver—I applaud you.
