So, I arrived back in Austin last night (at 12:45am! Stupid flight delays..) from an oh-so-relaxing trip to Tucson, AZ to visit Geoff's folks. It was beautiful! The trip basically consisted of laying by the pool, drinking yummy wine, riding around in golf carts, hanging with G's sweet family, getting massages and facials, and eating, eating,eating some of the best food I've ever had. lemme just tell you, I so did not want to get on that flight yesterday! Here are a few pics of the trip. Please to enjoy...

Lanterns lighting the way to the most gorgeous, yummiest restaurant ever (that I can't remember the name of right now...sad.)

Giant Saguaro Cactus!

At the Omni where his parents live.

Lunch at "Legends"

One of G's mom's beautiful flowers.

Andy & Nic take a ride. This was our primary mode of transportation during the trip. (Besides the Pimped out Grand Marquis that G rented-it was so ghetto, but of course he loved it!)
The view from the driveway!

So, in honor of our trip (and inspired by G's Mom's fab turquoise earrings), here is some Arizona-inspired fashion. A little boho, a little southwestern, and all gorgeous! Enjoy....

Reminds me of all the sweet little birds we saw in Tucson- and the cactus flowers-Beautiful!

Turquoise is so Arizona. These earrings are amazing!

This has both a southwestern and a sophisticated vibe- like a boho-cool bag for the office.

I love love love the elegance of their riding boots with a neutral sweater dress- its the perfect fall uniform.

How gorgeous is the mix of the rich red with the turquoise?

Gorgeous, perfect buttery leather bomber jacket. This would look so perfect to take my long printed maxi dresses into fall. Might even add my great beat up cowboy boots...Too bad its more than my rent!
