Now that summer is officially over, it's the perfect time to indulge in the tactile fabrics of fall.

Designer Terry Graziano has combined luxe textures of wool and tweed with an autumn palette of chocolate, lavender and graphite in sophisticated ladylike hats.

The idea that every design can be worn in a variety of ways is sheer brilliance.

In some, like my favorite – the Capricious, you can get 3, 4 or five different looks out of the same piece just with the flip of a brim, or jaunty tilt of the cap, making the price of these gorgeous creations an absolute steal!

Top off your fall wardrobe with these decidedly feminine hats that are versatile and unabashedly romantic.

$70USD from Terry Graziano

I am the first to admit that I find plastic flowers a little on the tacky side.

OK. A lot.

So it is no surprise that Torontonian Sui, Li has captured my attention with her dreamy crochet flower creations.

These aren't your typical rose blossoms crocheted in ruffled layers.

Sui Li's Lilies, Plum Blossoms, Sunflowers and Baby's Breath are so exquisite and so obviously crafted with great attention to detail and a generous helping of love, that you'll never think twice about by-passing the flake plastic flower section at your local craft supply store again!

The indie jewelry market is huge, so designers need to really strike out on their own and create pieces that show off their particular styles of they want to set themselves apart from the crowd.

Katherine from Meristem Creations has, indeed, created a piece that shows off her artistry and is like nothing else out there.

Created in the theme of "a rose amongst thorns", this oxidized metal necklace, A Crystal Amongst Metal,  is a gorgeous frame within which an exquisite web of wire showcases a single fuschia swarovski crystal.

Smaller crystals in pink & green are dotted along the necklace chain, which is entirely hand-formed and soldered to create a piece that is both delicate and dreamy.

There are no thorns when it comes to this lovely piece of wearable art, and Katherine's other work is just as intricate and lovely.

I am a notorious list-maker.  Even when it comes to grocery shopping! I tend to get a little (ok…a lot!) flustered when I have to dodge other shoppers, and kids, and carts at the local grocery store, so I do my best to plan ahead so I can get in, get my food stuff, and get out as quickly as possible.

When I saw this Menu Planner from Jot it Down, I knew that I wasn't alone, that there are, indeed, other (over)planners out there!

I literally do this already – first, think up the meals I am going to make every night, then I jot down ever ingredient I will need to make said meals.  I also take it a step further by writing the groceries down according to geographical location in the store so I won't forget anything.

Some people may see that as a little excessive. I see it as getting through another shopping trip without smashing anyone with my cart.

Jot it Down also has a This Week planner, and a great Babysitter chart, as well as lots of other vibrantly sweet paper treats – some complete with sprinkles!

So, on January 1st, you fully intended to be more organized this year. But all the day planners at your local bookstore were so boring to look at, that it completely sapped all your energy at getting your life in order.

Well, it may be March, but it's never too late, and indie designer luminarie's Compose Yourself 2008 Planner will use a bit of whimsy and femininity to help you get your ducks in a row.

With pages for each day, a tabbed monthly overview at the beginning of each month, and spaces for AM and PM appointments, luminarie's 6"x6" square planner is printed on silver acid-free, 75% recycled-content paper that gives off subtle glints of silver shimmer, and makes staying organized fun.

Go figure!

If you love the urban look of army surplus but still want to show off your softer side, indie designer Deadworry offers an array of colorful bags that combine both.

The Owl Field Bag comes in 7 colors, and the Owl design which is hand screened onto the 100% cotton canvas gives the bag a lighter look.

I particularly love how by simply changing up the ink color gives the Owl a completely different expression. 

From the inquisitive Owl on the Putty bag to the mischievous Owl on the Smoke bag, you can color co-ordinate your bag to your outfit – or your mood.
