The Outfit Today: Fall Colors & A Little Prep

Hello everyone! How are you all doing on this fine day? I hope the answer is "AMAZING!" :) Toronto had it's first warmish fall day today... Well, warm enough not to wear tights or a jacket lol. Of course I took advantage of the opportunity to not wear pants in October without being a victim of frostbite!


Red Skirt Thrifted DIY | White Cardigan & Belt Old Navy
Ring & Green Clutch H&M & H&M DIY | Flats BarefootTess.com | Necklace Costa Blanka


This is my new favorite lipstick right now, "So Chaud" by MAC. When buying it, the lady helping me looked at me like I was crazy because it was so bright. It's exactly the shade I wanted. An over the top, obnoxiously bright red, and I absolutely love it. Riding the bus with this on makes it very hard for people to ignore me lol.


Ive been trying to do new things with my hair, but it's proven to be harder said then done. Not much can be done to ridiculously curly, medium length hair. I might straighten in within the next couple weeks, even though I hate causing my dry hair any extra pain. Ive also been switching between grungy, preppy & lazy styles lately and my friends accuse me of having alternate style personalities. I just think I get bored really easily. *shrug* lol.



I found myself distracted in the mall yesterday while trying to visit my optometrist and found this necklace for THREE DOLLARS. I mean, how do you turn down a necklace for that price? That's right, you can't!

Jennifer girl, we will meat one day, and it will be a day of fabulous things because you too love are amazing! :)

Daneyll girl, $3! If I find another one I will ship it to you!

Elizabeth aw thank you, you are adorable yourself :)

Danielle It was a dress, I just cut off the top and added some elastic around the waistband. If you want to make one its not to hard, its a basically a huge rectangle of fabric folded over and sewn together, then elastic along the top and stretched. Sounds tricky but its really not! Give it a try, and if you do I want to see it! :)

Jeniese LOL girl H&M for $2, such a bargain! And thank you. ♥
