For the love of red, more fall inspiration.

Doesn't it just make you wish the leaves would turn already??

I love love love red and mustard for Fall this year. I usually avoid wearing red, although it is said to be one of my best colors, but this fall I am feeling it. And not just coral, red! Thankoon's Prefall collection is totally inspiring me, I am a sucker for layers, textures, simple patterns, and black & grey.

These are a five of my favorite things in my favorite color palette of the moment (can you tell from my current blog theme!?)

I usually have these items stashed in my bag: Jcrew clip for my wild hair, Revlon colorburst lipstick in coral, Altoids smalls because gum gives me headaches, Essie nailpolish in clambake, and a selfmade huayruro bracelet for a little extra luck

These beautiful red seeds are from the Huayruro tree, found in the Peruvian rainforest. While in Peru last year I fell in love with their red orange color and the handcrafted jewelry local artisans used them for. I was told that these seeds were a symbol of good luck and brought fortune by keeping evil at bay. Many Peruvians would keep one on their person, such as a wallet. And I am sure all have been given one at some point or another. Above are a few jewelry pieces I made while there with and assortment of the large, medium and small sized huayruro seeds, jabon (or jaboncillo) seeds, and wooden beads.
