Who's The Fairest Of Them All?

That's what I kept asking myself, as I came across all of these fairy-tale & spooky themed books, television shows and fashion pieces for Fall. My answer, "Why ALL of them, of course?" HaHa Have you seen Anthropologie's book selection? If you're a fan of fairy-tales or classics, check out their books online. Besides The Brothers Grimm and Alice in Wonderland, they also have Pride & Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, Little Women and Sense & Sensibility. The covers are gorgeous! I want them all! HaHaHa  It's definitely nearing Halloween, Stephen King is releasing (Sept. 24th) a new book called 'Doctor Sleep', which is a follow-up to 'The Shining'. It surely doesn't look like Joyland! HaHa I also came across an interesting book entitled, 'Love and Misadventure'. It takes you on a journey from love to heartbreak to finding love again (love can be a fairytale and/or a nightmare! LOL). I'll be watching all the television shows below. Sleepy Hollow starts TONIGHT! It's a new twist on the tale of the headless horseman. Charlotte Olympia has done it again! She now has a Once Upon A Time Collection for Fall 2013. This is only a smidgen of what she designed. Be sure to check out the entire collection. Wishing each of you a fairy tale week :) Just be sure to watch out for the villains! >.<

    Oh, I love those Rapunzel, Rapunzel heels! They're so cute!
    I really enjoyed fairy tales when I was a child and I still enjoy fantasy literature now. Sometimes they're a good way to left this troubled world behind for a couple of hours.
    Have a lovely week, Kim! xoxo

    These are great, I'm always drawn to fairy tales, etc. Even some of the television series as well. Brother's Grimm, and all of Jane Austen's novels were favourites growing up. I'd love to try on those platform heels juut for fun. :) Happy Monday Kim. xx

    Yay for Downton Abbey's return though it is still a few months away. Dracula honestly looks quite strange. Otherwise, there are definitely a few fun shows this coming season!

    Hi Kim! We share the same passion since I also love this theme. I've visited Anthropologie site and their book section is amazing, the covers are too lovely, you are right! Love Alice in Wonderland and the Brothers Grimm, my fav fairytales! I didnt know about the new one by Stephen King, would love to read it. Regarding the show, Dracula inspires me as well as the Sleepy Hollow. The new collection by Charlotte Olympia is amazing and dreamy, I want the bear heels!:) Kisses dear, have a fairy-tale week indeed! xo

    Oh my gosh! My sis and I were just discussing Stephen King's new book. We both love him, and love the movie, but have not read the book so we'll be reading The Shining soon before diving into Doctor Sleep.
    And really excited about with the new Dracula show....squeeeee!
    Happy Monday, Kim:)

    I actually had no idea Anthropologie had their own cool covers! Do you know the barnes and noble covers of the classics that are hardback and ornate? I have literally every single one of them. I'm a sucker for pretty books, so this post is about to do some serious damage to my wallet.

    What a fun selection, Kim - I love the halloween-themed shoes! It's funny, living in Europe for the past year, halloween just wasn't part of my life... and when I got back, I was so surprised to see all of the decorations already out in stores! I'm definitely looking forward to celebrating - and indulging in a few treats ;) - this year!
