pretty fall colors...

i love {fall}.

i am sure that i have already said that so many times!

but i really am just not a fan of the fall clothing colors.

i don't enjoy wearing mustard yellow, burnt orange, dark green, brown....

from time to time i will wear the colors to feel festive, and i really love them on other people.

but it's just not truly me.

i like to stick to my neutrals and blacks.

i prefer to throw in some prettier fall shades like this wine colored c.wonder crossbody bag.

i just like to keep my fall wardrobe super feminine.

unfortunately, here in idaho we seem to have gone straight from summer to winter!

i hope that your fall is longer lasting than mine...

i feel a little robbed!

but it's ok, i'm still enjoying my hot chocolate and fire place and that's really all that matters!

enjoy your tuesday evening :)

kick start your spring style with these pretty sale items!

so if you are like me, you walk straight to the sale racks after walking into a store.

and then you feel like since it's on sale, they're practically giving it to you, so how can you pass it up?

sometimes it can be dangerous.

do you look at your receipt and focus on the money that you saved instead of the money that you spent?

when i was younger and my mom would take me shopping, we would always tell my dad first how much we saved.

however, it never mattered, he was always mad about how much we spent.

but inside i felt sorta victorious because of all the money i saved.

i really don't think there are many things that are better than a good sale.

and if you are on a tight budget like me, but want to spruce up your wardrobe for spring, then check out these items below!

1. multi-colored fedora from forever21: $10.80 (okay, okay, this hat actually isn't on sale. but it's soo cheap and cute that i thought it should count!) here

2. floral shorts from madewell: now $58.50 here

3. sevin nyne tanning lotion from sephora: now $17.00 here

4. timeless flats from asos: now $30.52 here

5. colorblock cuff from asos: now $20.35 here

6. crystal tulip earrings from asos: now $20.35 here

7. bcbg envelope clutch from victoria's secret: now $44.99 here

8. tory burch floral iphone4 case from shopbop: now $35.00 here

9. blanknyc skinny color jeans from madewell: now $64.50 here

holdiay coziness...

being away from my home and my family, things just don't feel quite like christmas.

and the fact that i am in the warm southern california weather definitely doesn't help either!

so after a long week of school (i only got thanksgiving day off), i broke out my christmas candle, and i have the justin bieber holiday station playing on pandora.

and i must say- it is beginning to feel a bit like christmas in my little room.

i laid out my outfit for tomorrow already and i picked capris and a short sleeve top.

and i'm just wishing that i could wear a warm cozy sweater with boots and mittens...

if i could, i would pick an outift just like this one.
