Confidence will lead you on


I love fortune cookies! And this one came at the right time.



Fall Trend


I'm not usually one to follow trends but I fell into this one without even noticing. This post is a little late but I'm loving everything ox-blood, wine and bordeaux.
I also got a new Sephora rouge shine lipstick in mulberry. It's called Soul Mate and it is sheer (though it still packs a punch of color on). It stays put with the nano lip liner I got from Sephora. I love it love it and it's definitely a confidence booster.

Starbucks


I know it's just Starbucks but I have this thing where I fall into routines and lately I've been trying to mix things up (and hoping to get different results!). Anyway, I've started small by trying to get beverages other than frappucinos. My most recent picks were Caramel Macchiato and Cinnamon Dolce Latte. Both are deliciously different, I prefer the caramel macchiato iced and the warm Cinnamon Dolce Latte made me feel cozy on the train. Yay for changes! =)

Baked by Melissa

These bite-sized cupcakes always put a smile on my face! I love how tiny, delicious and pretty they are. I have yet to by 12 at once because I'm so satisfied after 3, much less 6!
October's carrot cake is tasty (not my favorite though) I can't wait to see what's in store for November!



LUSH



I decided to stop and try out this store that specializes in hand-made products. The store is filled with different smells and colors. Some colors came with surprising scents but it's all-in-all a unique experience. I picked up the foot scrub and mud mask and was so excited to try them both. The result: They crumble easily and are best stored in plastic containers. Although they're very very messy my skin felt great after.  I was surprised at how moist my skin was after using the mud mask. I can't wait to try the sugary lip products. 

I also support their use of natural products and stance against animal testing.
This Fall is a time of new beginnings. I'm excited to see where life takes me now. My style has evolved and it only took a few signature pieces to vamp-up my existing wardrobe. I can't wait to share all the new combinations!
P.S. A bold lip color definitely spiced up my look
