♥ Sunday Best ♥ #23

This is how you welcome Autumn!

How Addams Family-esque looks this set?

Apparently, Halloween came earlier to this man... The creepy anonymous clown has been terrifying Northampton by standing around on street corners at night and staring at passers-by!






I love these creepy yet fascinating photos of a doctor's deserted mansion. It makes me wonder what happened there.

Look how fat he is and how he keeps on eating! He just sits there and eats! And for some reason, I see myself in this little fella.

Playlist: Welcome Autumn!


This is my tribute to the most romantic, nostalgic and beautifully melancholic season of all.
Get yourself a cup of apple and cinnamon tea, cozy up and absorb the evocative atmosphere.

Annie Monroe for Dear Creatures in "Girl About Town"


It is beyond obvious that I have always been passionate about Dear Creatures, the whimsical independent designer duo you are probably familiar with through ModCloth and Urban Outfitters. For a first glimpse of Autumn, Dear Creatures has just released a clothing line featuring the ultra-cool Annie Monroe (The Like's keyboardist!) as this season's it girl. I've always had a crush on Annie and I couldn't imagine any other model doing a better job at pulling off some chic, pretty 60's-inspired frocks than herself.
These clothes are stylish and cool with an inspiring, evocative urban feel pairing with a positively nostalgic overdose of retro cuts, prints and patterns. It's like the contemporary young lady reveals herself elegantly as the classic New Yorker, the worker girl going yé-yé and enjoying her day off. First thing that came to mind when I came across this campaign (brilliantly photographed by Yudi Ela Echevarria) was: "Oh, Wes Anderson meets Mad Men! That's swell!". The dim shades of beige, the muted mustard, navy and oxblood hues really epitomize the ultimate Autumn dream wardrobe! The city backdrop is the modern twist in this marvellous mod tale, don't you think?
The collection is available on the official Dear Creatures shop and ModCloth with more to be released in October.
