From Summer to Fall Around the Blogosphere

Since I snoozed through all the blog events last week -- honk, shoe ... honk, shoe ... honk, shoe -- I'm trying hard to be a good participant this week. I'm happy to have the carnivale of couture back up and running (although, of course, I understand and respect Manolo's need for some time off. Oh yes, I really do!)

So just for fun, here are some links to things I thought were pretty, in my idiom:

• Brown quilted leather Burberry trench at the Perfect Closet.
  
• My favorites at Fashion is Spinach.

And many thanks to our host!

But as for coveting beautiful, unaffordable stuff, that isn't the mission of this blog. Please do come back later for my Works for Me Wednesday post. It will be something wearable.
