Berry Beautiful Lipcolor

Hello Lovely!


So, what goes better with the whole Autumnal beauty look than a dark berry colored lipstick. Er, lip stain, actually.
This berry color from E.L.F is a very inexpensive ($1) lip color. I love when lipstick lasts a long time and recently I've discovered lipstains, similar to lipsticks but very long lasting. It kinda feels like your coloring your lips with a marker when you put it on but it lasts a long time. I know some of the more expensive brands' lipstains will last even longer but if your low budget for a long lasting lip color, try the e.l.f. lip stain. Only real bummer is there are only a few colors. 




Happy fall time!! Hope your enjoying the start of fall.

Monday Motivation

Hello my lovely reader!

Hope all has been going well with you. I just wanted to take a quick moment to share some positive thinking with you. 
Lately, among the many books I'm currently reading, I've been reading this great book called Treasure Yourself by Miranda Kerr. I don't remember exactly how I found it (I think some picture on Instagram) but I'm so glad I got the book. Worth every penny. It's full of power thoughts and positive thinking and just good inspirational stuff. I try to read something out of the book at least one a day to give myself some good encouragement. So I've decided to share one of the power thoughts with all of you. I hope you like it.

I love all sorts of quick quotes and positive thinking like this. But what I love even more is sharing these little finds with others. I've decided that I'm going to try to post something positive like this once a week (probably on Mondays).
Let me know in the comments what you think about this power thought and if you have any you wanna share. I'd love to hear from you! Also, if there is anything specifically you want me to start posting about just let me know in the comments!

The Beginning of Fall

Happy Autumn!

Fall is finally here and that means life gets crazy again with school. I know I've been a busy bee, so much so that I've forgotten to post anything new to the blog here. So I've decided to compile my start of fall adventures. Sorry it's not too festive yet but I am siping on a very yummy pumpkin hot coco as I write this. The oh so simple recipe for it is coming soon.
Here is one of the many incredible sunsets I've been seeing up here in North California. You've probably heard of the "king fire" in California and it was only about 30 miles away from me. All the smoke and fire made dazzling sunsets and sunrises. They were sad and beautiful because they were only like that since so much land was on fire.

My current fall reading (in between to he books I have to read for my AP Lit class) with a vintage cherry Pepsi.

How could I not take a picture of this theater? It made me feel like I was in the '50s or something. It just had a very retro movie theater vibe and I loved it. My sister and I saw The Maze Runner here in IMAX with tickets she won on the radio. So unexpected and so much fun. Loved the movie.

And last but not least, some words of inspiration that I found on my desk one day in my AP Lit class. A club on campus randomly left inspirational notes on random desks around school. It made me smile and I thought I'd share the love.

Hope your making some great fall memories!
