Well, it was definitely sweater weather for moi yesterday, when I attended my "Flamingo Ladies Book Club" last night! I've been so busy lately and have been such a bad blogger. I promise to stop by and visit with all y'all and answer my e-mails A.S.A.P.!
So husband snapped this photo of me on our front porch as I was leaving..."Here's What I Wore" The black turtleneck is from who-knows-where...probably ten years ao. The skirt is the "Tulah Indigo Blue Denim Skirt," from Lilly. (The Autumn Tree is by Miss Janice).
I carried by Chanel 2.55 pocketbook, secured my ponytail with a Burberry scrunchie, and wore my Rolex Oyster Perpetual watch, along with my Cartier roll ring wedding band and the matching Cartier earrings. Here I am in a very Prissy-fied pose holding my gift for the hostess--from my October "Friendship Gift" stash!
My black tights are by Hue and the ballet flats are by Chanel.
The book for the month was Good in Bed, by Jennifer Weiner. It's a great book about a "fat girl"--she had a loser-daddy and a lousy former boyfriend. Read it...it's good!
Here's the Book Club hostess, Stacey Gilfillan...
Along with spiced apple cider, Stacey served a great "Signature Beverage," Rose Sangria...with freshly squeezed lemons, limes, and oranges! Awesome beverage!
Here's a peek at some fall-erizing I've been doing around "The Roost."
Pumpkins in the palms...
Some mums...
Little spooky black bird...
Autumn floral...I like to bring out my little feather wreath during this time of year...
Cornacopia on the sideboard...
Bunnies and pumpkins...
Fluffin' up the rooster...
Fallin' up the top of the frig...
Embellishing Miss Coco's portrait!
Not sure how Puff Kitty got in here...
Y'all have already seen the Autumn "Friendship Gift" tree...
Yes ma'am, it's Fall y'all!

You are just so classic! I love your decor and your outfit (those flats are fabulous!) I am loving that it is finally a little chilly here to actually dress for the season (I was starting to get sweaty toes from all the close toed shoes - yuck!) Not for these few days!
I love your home, simply gorgeous and seeing it gets me into the season!
You and your house look so cute!
Your autumn decor looks lovely! The 'pumpkin in the palms' photo is adorable! And your autumn tree is gorgeous!! All very inviting. And, Miss Janice looks fabulous as always!!
Are you always the best dressed where ever you go?
I love your autumn decor!
You are so precious cute Miss Janice. Y'all's fall fluffing looks great. I really need to get on the friendship gift train, yours are so inspiring. I'm putting "Good In Bed" in my cart on Amazon right now.
Hugs,
Sue
Hi Miss Janice! You look "mahvelous" in your outfit as usual! The book club party looks like so much fun! And I love your "fallerized" home! Funny...I never thought about having to look fallish with palm trees! You succeeded, Ma'am!! Happy week!...Debbie
You're such a doll! And love our decorations ;-) xoxo
Beautiful outfit and decor as always!
You look fabulous!! You are stunning.
You look great!
Love your outfit! Your fall decorations are adorable. My FAVORITE candle is Yankee Spicked Pumpkin.
You look lovely and your home is so festive. I love the autumn tree!
This is all so pretty - but I'm really loving that Autumn tree! Magnificant! And how cute are pumpkins in the palms too -- Almost as cute as you in those tights and flats.
Your fall decor is beautiful! I especially love the autumn tree. I would love to do a little miniature tree for my apartment. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
Your decorations are wonderful, love the pumpkins in the palms!

Looks like a fun time.
I love all your Fall decorations, especially your big pumpkin tree.
You're looking very preppy today.
Morning Miss Janice! I LOVE THAT FALL TREE!!! I think it is so cute pumpkins, scarecrows and Palm Trees! Just shows its all about the spirit of a season and not location!!!lol As usual you look adorable! Have a fun fall week - Sincerely, Jeannette
Looking pretty snazzy there, Miss Janice! I loved taking a peek of pretty you and seeing your house all decked out for fall. It must seem quite different to live in Florida during the fall months.
Great post! Come by and see me once in a while! ;)

Everything looks pretty, I need to get inspired to get my decorations out. I'm still missing a box somewhere.....so frustrating.
Love your outfit! Looks like a fabulous event!
You are just TOOOOOO cute, Miss Janice! Love it all!
PS- I got the books today and I lOVE them all! Some are even signed to ME! I just about fainted! Thank you so much for hosting such a lovely giveaway!
Jennifer
Love the look you are sporting!! Classic and elegant.
Your fall decor is looking great too.
Yes, I did leave the yellow buffalo check curtains for the new owners....they requested them and they didn't fit the taller windows in my new home. I am considering getting some more the right size.
Penny
Miss Janice- you looked fabulous and I love the decor- especially the autumnal wicker seating!
kHm
Gorgeous as always!!! Love seeing your decor photos!
I love the fall tree. Do you leave it up year around and change the decorations to match the season? I'd love to see pictures if you have them. Do you have a differnt tree skirt or one that works for all seasons?
Angela,
I will change the tree decos for Christmas and after the holidays, I will take it down--the neighbors already think I'm probably crazy! The tree doesn't have a skirt, I usually just scatter pumpkins at the bottom or a skirt/gift boxes at Christmas.
I am in love with your fall tree; you did a phenomenal job. Love your outfit...very classy! All of your fall decorations are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing!
Hugs,
Liz
