You might be forgiven for thinking October is every bloggers favorite month ever, because what blogger hasn't posted an ode to pumpkin spice or shared a zillion and two pics of leaves (guilty as charged!- at least on the latter account). But it has been a great month and here are just a few reasons it should be your favorite month too! 

Favorite Outfits

Tweed Bazer | Gingham Skirt | Golden Skirt

Favorite Mail
This month I shared a stationary wishlist, we talked about how to write invitations and got an inside peek at the subscription box company, Stitch Fix. Would you let a stylist pick out clothes for you via mail?

Favorite Movies
Try on the fashion styles of favorite films Annie Hall and Sabrina, or curl up to watch Halloween flick, Bell, Book, and Candle!

Favorite Plans
October started off with a bang, sharing some ideas of things to do with the monthly Why Don't You... post. It was also a month that saw a lot of changes on the blog. I attended the online conference Alt for Everybody (recap here) in September, and have been fired up to make Never Fully Dressed better than ever! Among other changes,  there were two new blog post series  introduced this month- Cinema Style and the Dogeared Page!What did you think of either of these? I also asked you for input with this survey (It is not too late to help out and give your opinion!You can also share further ideas in the comment section below). I'm well aware some of these changes might be great, and some might be seen as unsuccessful risks I took. But, hey, you gotta break a few eggs in order to make a blog, right? Or something like that. Speaking of, the topic of risk-taking was the centerpiece of this month's Q+A, when we asked What is the Biggest Risk You Ever Took.

Lest you think October was all blog and no play, we were excited that dance classes started up again (The boy and I do social dancing, both ballroom and "country" dances), and I also daydreamed about shopping with this fall list.
