Haul Time!

Hello everyone!

So this weekend I visited the new Bath and Body Works that just opened in my hometown, and I can honestly say, it was AMAZING.

I had originally wanted to buy the country apple scent, but they didn't have it in stock yet, so I wandered around the store looking for something else that suited me.... I found more than a number of awesome things!
I was going to buy the white citrus scent because it suited my body so much, but then I took one sniff of the "Forever Sunshine" line, and I was in love. It smells like my summer in Nova Scotia and I could not resist.

This is what the company quotes it's scent to be

"Master perfumers have blended golden apricot, pink peonies, vanilla musk and a hint of praline to create this fresh fragrance that captures the romance of warm days that linger into cool autumn. Wear it whenever you crave the essence of summer."

It smells exactly like summer, it's amazing. Next time I plan on buying the white citrus body spray (since perfume lasts all day, while body spray doesn't) and wear it on low key days. However, I did buy a travel sized version of the white citrus in a cream format, a cherry blossom body wash and a "sea island cotton" body spray. AMAZING. I would LOVE the perfume format of that as well, it smells like the ocean and fields of cotton. I also love the bottle design of the sea island cotton perfume as well! Then I picked up a body scrub called "need a margarita". and I swear it smells exactly like the real thing (a review on that later!) as well as a 60 second manicure scrub!

I also made my way over to old navy to get some basic tank tops, but I also scored a boyfriend blazer and a cute skirt! I finally ended my day by FINALLY buying a pair of booties! Yay me! :D

Gravity, stay the hell away from me.

  One of my absolute favorite styles this fall is the paper-bag look! I see this look all around school, especially in the military color scheme and I cannot get enough of it! In my opinion it gives a great mix of feminine and masculine contrast due to the fact that the pant itself is very structured, but the waistline is very soft. Apparently Zara is the go to place for this style (so I've been told). Let me know if you've seen this style other stores! I definitely want to get my hands on a pair!

Three cheers for cold weather! Anyone who knows me, knows about my obssesion with cold weather so you can imagine how happy I am to pull out my warmer clothing and trudge outside with my new combat boots. I wore something similar to this outfit to the Vampire Weekend concert this week. I replaced the jean shirt for a red plaid one (any shirt will do!). Try this outfit out, it's super cute and comfy! :)

It's to dying in another's arms and why I had to try it.

 Today we spent probably one of the last few days together before school starts to take over our lives. It was such a hot and sunny day but we made the most of it! We also had a picnic in the park :D

We were so excited to dress up for the newest fall trends, but sadly the weather ruined our best laid plans! More on our outfit details a little later though!

Enjoy!

Everyday we give love, we give life

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey!
So first of all, let me apologize for being away for so so long. I worked, then went on vacation, then came back for an insane week of work and during all of that my computer was broken and only got repaired like yesterday. So I'm back and yay for that! I should be back regularly now (let's hope). Anyways so here's a photo of me in San Francisco. Please note my totally awesome military inspired boots. I got them on vacation in San Fran at Forever 21.

Looking like another Bob Marley day.

Just thought I should post some pictures of one of my very last days before school starts :)

Just keep me where the light is.

Since back to school is literally just around the corner, it's time to get your closet ready! The most important thing about going back to school is to stock up on your basics! Colored V-necks, tee shirts and tank tops are a must. Leggings, a pair of jeans, a basic skirt and sweats are also a must. The great thing about basics is that you have one staple piece that you can use to play around with something more trendy!

This is an outfit I put together for a day when the weather starts to change into fall!

I thought this was a great thrown together but chic and cute look :)
I made this next set to be comfortable on those days when you have classes that seem to go on forever, but at least you still look really great! :)

The second one is definitely more fall inspired and would look great on a crisp fall day on campus :)

Night everyone :)
