A LITTLE HAUL

Helter Skelter, Dark Places , I Am Malala, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, One Last Thing Before I Go

I got these books over the course of the past two weeks. I've already read Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me and One Last Thing Before I Go. I really, really liked both of them (I finished them both in four days). I've been a huge fan of Mindy Kaling ever since I watched The Office (one of my favorite TV shows!) and I read Tropper's other book and I really enjoyed it. I've been wanting to read I Am Malala and Dark Places for awhile now so I decided to pick them up. I went to Walmart last night because I wanted to get The Girl on the Train, but they didn't have it. I was pretty upset haha. Helter Skelter is a book I have been interested in reading for quite some time. I, not in a weird way whatsoever, find learning about cults really interesting. My dad knew I've been wanting to read this so he bought it for me.

I bought these boots last weekend from Playto's Closet for only $8! I've been needing a new pair of biker boots, seeing as though my old pair have literally fallen apart. They are a really good quality of material and I've been happy with them so far. I got these socks yesterday from Maurices and they're having deal on socks & tights right now, if you're interested.

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile! I've been extremely busy with school (some of my finals have already started)! I've had this post archived for quite some time now and I've just gotten around to posting it. I've been loving denim shirts recently so I bought this one awhile back and I love it! I love the denim-on-denim, Canadian tuxedo look and I plan on wearing this shirt with a pair of dark wash jeans. Life will be hectic for me in the near future, so please forgive me if my posts are that consistent!

This was a spur-of-the-moment outfit. I actually really like how it turned out, though. It's a very classic, easy outfit to put together. My mom has a subscription to Birchbox and she was sent this awhile ago. She doesn't wear lipsticks, so she gave this one to me. I'll admit, I don't normally wear lip products. I got off of Accutane a little over 3(?) months ago and my lips still get very dry, very easily. This is an amazing lip product though! It smells heavenly and stays on for quite awhile; if you're looking for a good red lipstick I recommend this one! 

The weather has been having a moment so far this week. It's November 3rd and it was 70 degrees out today! I'm not a fan- I would rather it be a little more on the chilly side. On another note, I watched Star Wars for the first time over the weekend (I don't know why it's taken me this long-honestly) and I LOVED it!! I'm going to have to watch the others before the new one comes out in December. I also watched five movies over the weekend with my mom and I would recommend most of them. Insidious: Chapter 3 (not very good in my opinion), The Final Girls (loved it! Mostly because I'm a huge fan of most of the actors in it haha), The Gift (huuuge Jason Bateman fan over here! This one was pretty good), Ashby (I love, love, love Emma Roberts, and the movie), and Manson Family Vacation (this one won't be everyone's cup of tea- but I found it funny and really enjoyed it).

ALL HALLOWS' EVE

It's that time of year again...HALLOWEEN! I absolutely love Halloween, as most people do. I'm staying in this year and passing out candy for the first time. I've been alive for 18 years and I've never passed out candy before because I either lived out in the country (where no sensible kid comes to trick-or-treat) or I've been doing things with friends. Tonight I'm spending time with my mom and brother, giving out candy, and watching a collection of horror films--I'm pretty ecstatic about it, as nerdy as it may sound. I wanted to share my favorite Halloween/ horror films with you guys. So sit back, turn out the lights, and be prepared to get scared. Stay spooky! :)

Hello lovelies!

I'm getting my senior pictures done tomorrow and, like I promised, these are the outfits I'll be wearing (I think)! I didn't link some of the clothes because they're pretty basic pieces that you can find anywhere. I also took the ACTs today (for the third time..) and I know i did terribly :[ Even though it was my third time taking it, I had an anxiety attack and ended up psyching myself out for basically the whole thing. Last time i took it I got a 24 and I wanted to get a 28 or higher. Hopefully I'll be able to take it again (i want to score higher!). 

On the plus side, i'm going to a haunted house tonight with my family so that should be fun! I LOVE going to haunted houses, so i'm really excited. Hope you are all having a great weekend.

Hello lovlies!

I've been wanting to get me a pair of thigh high socks and when I found these at Forever21 I couldn't pass them up! I also found this cardigan while thrift shopping this past weekend and for only $6(!!) how could i say no? It's so soft, comfy and warm! The weather wouldn't make up its mind on if it wanted to be hot or cold, so I thought this would be a perfect outfit to wear. I also want to direct your attention to these amazing boots from Boohoo. They're so wonderful and trendy and I just love them. If you're looking to pick up some good boots that won't cost you a fortune, I would highly recommend Boohoo's boots! Also, if you were wondering, i'm starting to kind of like my hair. It's still dark for my liking, but its getting there. This weekend I'm getting my senior pictures taken, so sometime this week I hope to have a lookbook type of thing up about the outfits I plan on wearing (i have a feeling this outfit will be among them). I hope you are all having a great day/ week!

Hello lovelies!

I ordered these amazing boots from Boohoo last week and they came in yesterday! They are so comfy and on trend so i'm very excited to have them. My outfit today was pretty casual, but really comfy. Also, you may notice that I dyed my hair. In all honesty, I hate it. I showed my hairdresser a picture of Clemence Posey's hair when it was a darkish blonde and told her that was how I wanted it. Obviously it did not turn out a darkish blonde. It is way too dark for my liking. On that note, I'm never getting my hair done there again ahaha. So, in the meantime, I'm trying to embrace it and pretend that i was on ANTM and Tyra Banks gave me this makeover so I will try my best to make it work. I miss my blonde hair a lot, so I'll probably dye it back towards the end of November or beginning of January. 

Hope you are all having a great week! x 

RIGHT AS RAIN

Hello lovelies! It's been forever since i've posted seeing as I've been busy with school- senior year is having me stressed already! But I want to get back into the groove of blogging, so i'll be posting more (hopefully)! 

My weather app said it was supposed to be in the 70s today, but it was pretty cold this morning. I decided to throw on my leather jacket that I got from Target (for only $10- what a steal?!) I can't wait until it starts getting cooler, I mean it's October -where's the cold?!? I'm already looking forward to styling sweaters and whatnot. Halloween season is my favorite after all!

Enjoy two selfies I snapped this morning before school. I'm getting my hair dyed on Saturday (FINALLY!) because my roots are terrible, as you can see in the pictures. I'm thinking about going slightly darker, although how much darker I'm not sure. Also, I'm getting my senior pictures done in a couple of weeks so I'm looking forward to that, even though I have no idea how to pose in front of a camera, as you can also tell from the pictures haha. I've been watching America's Next Top Model for just about ever, but even Tyra can't help me /:

 Today I had a college visit so I wanted to wear an outfit that showed my style and that I could easily walk around a campus in.  I originally planned on wearing the black shirt and shorts with my Harry Potter time turner necklace I got from this etsy shop but at last minute I changed my mind. I paired my first choice of outfit (minus the necklace) with this amazing kimono that I thrifted from Playto's Closet, originally from Forever21, awhile back (it was only $6 can you believe it?!). I forgot I had it until I was rummaging through my closet trying to see if I had a cardigan/sweater because it was actually kind of chilly today. My favorite perfume was a must today. If you haven't had the chance to get a whiff of this perfume, I highly recommend you do so- it smells fantastic.
