September 2017 Favorites

Has another month really gone by?! I can't believe we have three months left of 2017. It still shocks me how fast the year has passed by. But I'm excited for this season that brings us Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! It really is the most wonderful time of the year. I hope everyone ends the year on a good note and continue to spread all the good vibes around us! Anyways, without further adu, let's get into my September favorites!

Some Self-Care Tips

Self-care is one of those things that many overlook but it's so so important for everyone to do something for their own well being! These are a few things that I love to do and make me feel better physically and mentally and you can do them too.

My Accessory Essentials

Last week I spoke about my fashion essentials and this week I want to talk about my favorite accessories. I truly believe that accessories can really transform an outfit. It gives you the opportunity to mix in the current trends to your personal style. Some of these can be essentials to some but it gives others the opportunity to explore with different accessories. I'm going to talk about my favorite accessories that help me define my style. Everyone has their own essentials

Lipstick Picks / Fall

There is no doubt that Fall is my favorite season! Everything about fall is just so beautiful to me so I decided to to share my favorite fall lipsticks. Initially I was going to talk about 5 specific shades but minimizing my lipsticks was just too difficult. All of these are probably the same but I swear that they're different in one way or another, haha. So I decided to categorize this by tones. So I hope you all enjoy this!

Nails of the Week: Bronze Metallic

It's not officially Fall yet but we're already in September and the weather is getting cooler so of course I've already started painting my nails with fall shades. Metallic shades are my second favorite finish of polish aside from creme finishes because it adds some flare to your nails and looks fun.

My Fashion Essentials

Building your wardrobe can be difficult from finding your own style to keeping it under a certain budget that won't hurt your wallet. Getting dressed in the mornings can be difficult for me when it shouldn't be a try-athon of putting something on and taking it off to shove back into my closet because I'm not pleased with my outfit. These are my top 6 fashion essentials that I know won't fail me when getting dressed and save me lots of time.

Solitude

I read an article on Thought Catalog that spoke about how women who are single for a large period of time end up to be the happiest. You can read that here. I did want to write about this before reading this article because it's something that I can relate to so now's the time to share my thoughts.

Beauty Blender Alternatives

My favorite method of blending out my foundation is with a beauty blender. As we all know the og beauty blender is pricey at $20 a pop. I'm a fan of the black beauty blender and I love it but it can get pricey replacing them especially when your dog loves chewing them up! (I'm more careful about where I place them now) A lot of brands have been releasing their own beauty sponges and I've tried a few that I want to mention!

What I Never Leave Without: What's in my Bag?

Some of my favorite Youtube videos to watch on Youtube are What's in my Bag videos. Either I'm genuinely interested in what other women carry in their bag or I'm just nosey. I try to keep it as simple as possible but I like to be prepared for any situation I might find myself in. Here's what's in my bag for my everyday essentials.

Comfort Zones

I want to include a little series on my blog called "Journal" to speak on any topics that I feel are important to me and that many of us can relate to aside from the world of beauty and fashion. This is about stepping out of my comfort zone. Creating this blog has allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and do something I've been wanting to for a long time. I am hesitant on posting this but I hope you all enjoy.

Nail Polish Picks / Fall

Besides loving makeup, I also love nail polish! I actually loved nail polish way before I got into makeup. I was originally going to do my summer nail polish picks but never got around to it. Although summer isn't over yet, it's the beginning of September so in my mind it's basically Fall! I'm ready for sweater weather, fall makeup and chilly weather. I gathered my top six nail polish picks for the season. I originally had like ten but I just had to minimize it! My favorite tones are warm and earthy. Something about them just screams my name. Alright, without further adu, let's get into some fall nail polish!
