Fashion Friday + Links

It feels gloriously autumnal today. I’m wearing an orange sweater and I drank a chai latte. I also went to yoga, The Container Store, and Barnes & Noble, which makes me very happy.

A few links:

I’m donating a signed ARC of BORN WICKED plus an ARC of Marissa Meyer’s CINDER to the Read for Relief auction to benefit the Red Cross’s Hurricane Irene efforts. You can bid here if you want; it ends Saturday at 10 pm.

Erica at The Book Cellar is giving away an ARC of BORN WICKED here.

And I’m giving away bookmarks and stickers. You can email me at cahillwitch(at)gmail if you’re interested and live in the US or Canada. I was only going to give them to the first 25 people to respond, but WTH. They’re so pretty, and I did order 1000…

I was also interviewed this week by Tirzah at The Compulsive Reader. And I’ll be part of the Author Insight series every Thursday at Wastepaper Prose.

My fashion cravings this week are starting to tilt toward fall. I just bought these two dresses from Modcloth (Coral Gables and Freedom of the Dress), plus the bag above (Sunset in Motion). I’ve been carrying the same Fossil birdcage bag since February, so it’s time to switch that up pronto. I’m thinking about wearing the navy dress to a friend’s baby shower next weekend, and maybe the coral one to a wedding in early October with a dark-purple shrug. Lately I really dig contrasting colors–deep purple with yellow, pink and orange, etc. What do you think?
