I went thrifting a couple weeks ago and scored this awesome sweater. I was debating on it while was looking around but I couldn't pass it up knowing I'd regret it later and I am so glad kept it! It's been a while since I've gone to the thrift store leaving satisfied with some great finds. I just picked up a few more things today [talk about sweaters galore!] so be sure to watch out for a thrift store haul soon!

My boyfriend and I went to go see "Captain Phillips", starring Tom Hanks, and I'd just like to take this time to say that... that was a really, REALLY good movie! Tom Hank's performance was great and I was on the edge of my seat, holding my breath and trying to fight back tears. If you're a fan of films based off true stories, at sea hijackings and Navy SEALS, I highly recommend watching this one! Can I also mention that I now want the iPhone 5s even more just because of the better camera quality... Sounds dumb I know but my boyfriend used his phone to take my photos today and the quality is so much better than my trusty iPhone 4s, and it would further feed my avid and embarrassing Instagram obsession. Too bad I can't upgrade till next year and I'm not about to shell out $600 or so to buy it without contract (first world problems?!..). On another note, it's definitely starting to get colder... time to break out the parkas and mittens.

P.S. I'm in desperate need of a hair cut...

Fall Essentials

Despite the fact that we've been experiencing slightly bipolar weather lately, fall has finally come and I couldn't be more excited. Fall is my all time favorite season. The great "just right" weather, the fashion and makeup trends are always something look forward too. It's also my birthday season so that's always something to be excited about. 

Anyway, I thought I'd do a quick post about my current fall essentials. These are just items I've been gravitating towards since the weather started changing. 

Coquette Scarf; "Wind"/Wilfred//Aritzia [HERE]

While the price tag on these uber popular blanket scarves is a little heavy on the pockets, I definitely now see why so many people love them. They're cute, they're warm - 100% wool - and they're huge! [hence blanket scarf]. I have two styles of these scarves and I'm embarrassingly looking into picking up one more.. But I feel they're worth it! I'm not saying go out and buy this exact one, but a goo scarf is definitely an essential for Autumn. 

Mariun Ankle Boots//Call It Spring [HERE]

I love fall because I love wearing boots. I've been obsessed with ankle boots lately and while I wasn't initially in love with these ankle boots, I've been wearing them a ton ever since. A good boot is a must for Fall!

Aviators//H&M

Even though the weather is getting cooler, it still gets quite sunny outside so having a pair of sunglasses definitely helps shield your eyes, protecting them at that! I personally love aviators on myself and gold framed aviators just scream Fall to me for some reason..

iPod Nano; 3rd Generation//Apple

School has started back up again and because I commute to school I like to catch up on sleep on the GO Bus as much as I can [I'm sure any GO transit rider can agree with me on how comfortable the seats can be!]. I like to rip out my trusty iPod when school starts because its compact and with the help of a decent pair of in-ear earphones, I can drown out the annoyingly loud chit chat that happens on the bus [who has that MUCH energy at 7:30am? Really..]. 

iPhone Wristlet//Michael Kors [HERE]

My boyfriend got me this wristlet with the intention of making sure I only carry the essentials in my wallet. This wristlet has been such a convenience cause it has a slot for my iPhone! I hate bringing a bag sometimes so the fact that this has an iPhone slot makes things so much easier.  I think this is more of a year round essential for me but I thought I'd throw it in since I've been loving it so much!

Bold Lip Colors; Rebel & Red Velvet/Satin Lipstick & Lip Butter//MAC & Revlon 

Fall is definitely vampy bold lip color season and I LOVE it! My faves are MAC Rebel - a deep berry shade, and Revlon Red Velvet - a deep blood red shade. Wearing these bold colors with a nude eye is such a pretty look to me. Plus it cuts your makeup time in half!

So those are just a few Fall essentials for moi! Let me know what your Fall essentials are down in the comments.

Blue Had Me At Hello

(Necklace - Costa Blanca, Romper - Costa Blanca, Belt - Costa Blanca, Watch - Fossil, Ankle Boots - Spring)

I'm normally not a fan of rompers but this one spoke to me somehow.. Must've been the in your face royal blue!
