Life Update

Life has been crazy busy in a good way! I have some posts I'm super excited about but for now here's some pics from my life!

The french toast I had for brunch on Saturday, and let me tell you it was bomb. It's from Portage Bay and is so worth the wait they have on a Saturday morning. It's fantastic. School has been extremely crazy with midterms so I basically live in leggings and cozy socks studying my butt off! And a few outfits I have been loving. I'm pretty much obsessed with fall, so you will be seeing more of them in the near future!

Plaid Dress

dress: pacsun | sweater: hollister | boots: DSW

If you can't tell by the title of this post, I'm kind of obsessed with this dress. It's plaid, red, and very 90s. It's so me and I love it! There's this awesome leaf wall that I discovered on campus the other day, and this outfit was perfect for it. I also discovered those people things that I'm with in one of the last pictures. I think it's an art instillation of some sort.... I was very intrigued by it, and I think they're pretty cute. Also it wouldn't be fall without a pic of me sitting in leaves, so there ya go. I'll "leaf" on that note..

Fall Favorites: Scarves

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

In Washington, October means it's full on fall, and scarves are a must. Walking to and from class, scarves are a perfect way to keep warm, and these fall picks are perfect for looking cute as well. My personal favorite is number 4, and I'm having such a hard time resisting putting it in my shopping cart. Happy Fall y'all!

Fall Style Roundup

October in Seattle means were in full on fall! I love the fall weather and everything it comes with. So here's some of my favorite fall styles courtesy of Pinterest! 

All Black: All black is so chic, and so easy to incorporate many textures to add interest. All black looks are so easy to put together, but if you NEED color, add a scarf or sweater! 

Socks with Sandals: Maybe this is just a look in the PNW, but I love wearing wool socks with my birkenstocks or open toed booties. It keeps your feet warm, and you get to continue wearing your favorite shoes into the fall and winter. The cuter the socks, the better!

Beanies: Beanies not only keep you warm, but add another layer to a fun look. Having these in multiple colors is an awesome way to amp up any outfit.

Oversized Sweaters: The easiest outfit formula in the fall is an oversized sweater and jeans or leggings with boots. I own a bazillion sweaters and wear them on repeat with a scarf and vest in the fall. So easy and so cute. 

Rings and more Rings: I love having a part of rings on my hands. They add a little touch to any outfit, and I love love the little touches people add to outfits to kick them up a notch. 

I hope these give you some fun ideas for fall! Bring on the sweaters, socks and warm drinks!

Must have apps for a college freshman

Going into college is a stressful and new time for everyone. Now that freshman year is in full swing for everyone, I thought I'd share my favor apps!

1. Your schools app

My schools app most helpful feature is the campus map with gps that will tell you exactly where to go from your current location if you happen to be lost. Other features include a course catalog, eataries arround campus and library information. 

2. Bank app

Stereotypical broke college student. Keeping an eye on your finances is important. Is that new pair of shoes really in your budget? (I just bookmark my banks home page on Safari)

3. Genius scan

This is an app I heard about from a friend and use all the time. You take a picture and turns it into a scanned copy on your phone. I use this to scan in tests so I can study from them later and send to other classmates to study from too. 

4. Pandora/spotify

I personally have both on my phone. I listen to music walking to class, studying in the library or in my dorm, when I'm in the shower, and pretty much all the time. 

5. Instagram

What better way to share you pictures of college with your friends and family than Instagram. It's my favorite form of social media. 

6. A mind numbing game to play while bored or taking a study break

My personal recommendations are Candy Crush and 2048. 

7. Evil apples

A super fun way to get to know your roommate and people on your floor. This is the Cards against Humanity app. 

8. Google maps + one bus away
Going away to school means your in a new town. These are my favorite ways to figure out where your going and what bus to take to get where your going.

Fall Favorites: Leather

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

Leather is such a fall staple, and can be worn in so many ways. Leather jackets are always a classic, and if full leather isn't your thing, a leather sleeved jacket is an alternative, to still get that punch of leather. Leather leggings, can be worn dressed up or down, same with a leather skirt. My favorite is probably the leather shoulder patches. A little bit of leather on a cozy sweater gives it edge. I can't wait to wear my leather pieces this fall!

Fall always brings around the itch for me to create something and crafty. Hopefully I will get the time to do some painting or crafting soon. I will make sure to fill you in if I do. Have an awesome weekend!

Lucky Brand Haul

Recently I was introduced to this brand, and absolutely love it. This brand is a little bit pricier but they were having an amazing sale, and I couldn't not stock up on basics. Here's what I bought.

I bought these 2 pairs of jeans, and this gorgeous red sweater. I featured the distressed jeans in my destroyed denim post. I wore them to the first day of classes, and they are a dream--super comfortable, and keep their shape. Currently wearing the gorgeous red sweater, so comfortable, I'll definitely be wearing it all season long. These are all perfect fall staples, and know they will got lots of wear all season.
