Weekend Drugstore Haul

So this weekend I was sort of stuck in my house. I don't have my drivers license yet (even though I should by now) so I can't go anywhere when my parents aren't home. I decided to ride my bike down to my corner. On my corner there is a few restaurants, stores, and a drugstore! As you can imagine, I was lured in...I might of spent a few bucks on some new items :-)

Ahh, look at how pretty! Yes. I finally got my hands on Essie's "After School Boy Blazer." I cannot wait to try it out

I thought these colors looked absolutely lovely together. I have been looking for nice nude colors, since I have never really gone with a nude color. I picked up "Mademoiselle" and "Mamba."

And the beloved Kate Moss Rimmel lipstick in 107. It is the perfect shade Fall and Winter. It is a deep red wine color. And by the looks of it, it looks pretty smooth and buttery! :)

I thought this color was a really pretty nude. It's not a washed out nude, but it has a pinky feel to it. I am new to nude lipsticks, so this is what I went with. Maybelline "Pearly Pink"

Sticking with Maybelline, I got my hands on the 24 hour color tattoos!!! I am SOO excited to start using these babies. Look at how pretty they look!

This is Bad to the Bronze. It has buildable coverage, so you can make it soft and subtle or loud and shimmery!

 Tough as Taupe. I will be sporting this color daily. It is the perfect neutral shade for everyday.

So those are just a couple of things I picked up :) And sorry for my hands, they are looking very dry and pale. Its the changing weather!! Bare with me!

Halloween is coming ♡

This is the center piece of my kitchen table right now.

Anyone else's mouth watering?! My mom bought a bag of mixed candy corn, and when I saw it I had to walk away, haha. My personal favorite are the pumpkins. They are just so DELICIOUS!

I hope this inspires everyone to go and get a bag of their favorite candy, and display it in a pretty bowl! My mom collects antique silver and crystal, so thats what I display my things in.

Do any of you like to display things in decorative bowls or plates? I would love to know :)

Moodboard Monday ♡

Hello my loves! Happy Monday morning to you :) I hope everyone had a nice relaxing weekend! This morning I woke up in a cheery kind of mood and I really thought it was Winter. Strange! I am loving Fall and the amazing weather, but below are some images to get your week off to a nice start. I also thought of some of these things when I woke up this morning! 

A nice cup of hot chocolate...and don't forget the marshmallows! 

How lovely are these carved candles? I want some for my window sill.

This sight made me catch my breath! The changing of the leaves is my favorite part of Fall.

I'm not gonna lie, kind of felt like staying in bed a few extra minutes this morning! :-)

What is your favorite part of Fall?

Here I am ♡

Okay, so I feel very very bad that I have disappeared from my blog. To tell you the truth, I have been going through a little bit of a tough time over the past week. For some reason, I have just been in a really odd mood, hiding out in my room, and being a bit snappy to my parents and siblings. I don't really know why, and I am angry about it! It's Autumn and everything should be happy and colorful in my world right now, but I am feeling a bit lost.

I have been comparing myself to others lately, and I know that isn't healthy. For the past couple of months, I have been trying sooooo hard to find myself, and to really accept myself for who I am. I know it is very important to stay positive and be grateful, but like I said, I have just been the total opposite for the past couple of days weeks :(

I have to get this off of my chest- I really do not like the way my blog looks. That is one reason I haven't updated, and I feel terrible. But I am writing to say sorry. It is just a stupid excuse. But please please forgive me, I just haven't been myself and I am just kind of in a block. I am really excited though, because I have found an amazing site with templates and custom designs, so I cannot wait to give my blog a sparkle of ME! 

Like I kind of said earlier, my mind has been racing with ideas and concepts, but I have been stuck! It is kind of hard to explain, but I know some of you will understand. I think this is something that everyone goes through at one point or another. 

To wrap this post up, I just want to say I am still here. I have been writing like a mad person so many different ideas in my journal for this blog, it's insane! Trust me, I have some good stuff coming :) I know this little grey cloud of mine will pass soon... I am seeking inspiration from everywhere, including you :) Thank you for just being here. It really helps, alot. I promise I will be posting more very soon, and my new design and layout is going to scream my personality, haha! 

Have a great weekend

Hailee Steinfeld's New 'Do

I have always been a fan and follower of Hailee. I think she is her own person, and she isn't afraid to do what she wants. She doesn't just follow the crowd! And she has an amazing little group of friends, including Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, who have mentioned several times that they adore her. 

I have always loved Hailee for her fierce fashion and beauty choices. Overall, this new look on her I really like. And it's not a severe change, either. The bangs are just long enough to create a versatile style, so if she wanted to do a side-swept look or a slick ponytail, this hair wouldn't get in the way. I think this look makes her appear older and more mature.

What do you think of her new cut?

Favorite Flats

As Summer is coming to a close, we know our summer wardrobe is coming to a close as well! As much as I loved wearing my strappy sandals, I'm ready to pull out my fall shoes! My favorites for fall are booties and flats, because they can go with ANY outfit. It can take a drab look to amazing. Here are some flats I spotted and loved:

These are super adorable, and not overly girly. With just a hint of red, they're perfect to spruce up an outfit! These are $30 from H&M.

Okay, anything with leopard probably already exists in my closet. But I have yet to own these! This leopard slipper can be worn with a mix of prints, or just solid colors. Either way your lookin trendy! You can buy these at MatisseFootwear.com for $65.

These are definitely unique, but I love them. The gold buckle ontop is so chic. These are DV by Dolce Vita for $79.

Yet another shoe from H&M! You would never know you only paid $99 for these Oxfords. I would love to wear these with a gigantic sweater while sipping a hot cocoa, wouldn't you?

Well these are some of many of my favorite flats for fall! What's your favorite?

Moodboard Monday

Happy Monday lovely people!! :-) How was everyone's weekend? I had some family fly into town and they stayed for a night. It was fun! All weekend long I was gathering some fun and beautiful pictures that got me in the mood for Fall. So here are some pictures that just leave me feeling all warm and cuddly: (Warning: Lots of pumpkin!!)

My favorite part of fall is definitely the leaves changing, and the weather turning crisp and cool! Perfect for morning strolls. I love putting little decorative pumpkins everywhere around my house, accented with orange and rust colored leaves. Ahh, I just love this season. What's your favorite part of Fall?
