Hiya Lovelies! Today I decided to share with you a few of my Fall Favorites. This tag was created by Lindsey Hughes and I loved the questions she thought up. To see the questions and answers for this tag keep on reading...
*I did provide links to as many of the products as I could find to make it easier for you to locate. It doesn't mean it's the exact place I purchased my own and you might find it cheaper elsewhere but I wanted to make sure you could find it. Enjoy!
- Fall Beauty Faves -
1. face product - My choice is the Naked Skin Foundation. I where the shade 7.0 and love this product so much! It is light weight and evens everything out without it looking like I'm wearing anything.
2. cheek product - My choice is Cabana Boy blush by The Balm Cosmetics. This is a dusty berry shade that brings a lot of warmth to my face without getting muddy or oxidizing throughout the day.
3. eye product - The obvious choice to me is the Ardency Inn pigments I just found a couple of weeks ago. These pigments are super saturated and highly pigmented. The color options available caters to all tastes and there are multiple finishes available.
4. hair product - I chose my It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in Product. This leave in conditioner helps my color treated hair feel like virgin hair again. I damaged my ends by bleaching to achieve an ombre effect and this conditioner leaves my hair feeling soft and hydrated without weighing it down. The smell is amazing and it helps to tame flyaways.
5. fragrance / candle - The White Barn Candle Company's Leaves candle. You can find these at Bath and Body Works only during the fall and the smell instantly brings me back to this time of year no matter when I burn it. It's a lovely fruity smell and has a crisp clean scent. If you are looking for potpourri this is not the candle for you.
6. nail polish - I love my Julie G nail polishes and specifically during this season I love my Elegant Edge polish. This cranberry polish fits the season so well and is the perfect hue to wear for Thanksgiving (which I will be doing). The plus is that these polishes are only $3.99 at RiteAid or Jesse'sGirlCosmetics.com.
- Fall Fashion Faves -
1. trendy clothing item - I don't go much with the trends when it comes to clothing since I like more retro or classic looks so when it came to choosing this item I instantly thought of the two skater skirts I picked up. Specifically the houndstooth skater skirt I got form Rue21. This skirt was only $16 and it fits like a dream. It stay in place and because it is made of sweater material it hangs well. I don't worry about this skirt flying up. It also came in Black (which I also purchased) and the shape is more trumpet than a-line which suits someone without hips just fine.
2. comfy clothing item - My comfy clothing item is a heather grey shawl collared cardigan I picked up from Nordstrom Rack. It's made by H by Bordeaux and the fabric is sweat pant material. Its the most cozy sweater I own and if I could wear it all of the time I would. Although it is over-sized I still find that it is cut in such away that it still gives me a shape. I did try to find this sweater online and had no luck. Sorry!
3. shoes - My favorite fall shoe had to be the Nine West boots I picked up at Ross. I have a hard time finding boots and these are not only comfortable but they have a good amount of stretch in the fabric which allows them to get up and over my huge calves. LOL. Although these boots look high they are actually easy to walk in all day long. I recommend these for travel as well. They go on and come off easily with the zipper on the inner part of the boot shaft. I love these!
4. accessory - Scarves...every shape...every color...ever style! I have so many scarves and actually knit them myself at times. I think they add a little something to an outfit that seems boring or plain. It also says a lot about a person's personality when you look at the print or how they tie it. I just love adding these to my fall looks.
- Fun Favorites -
1. Halloween or Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving by a slight margin. I love Halloween and the costumes and of course the MAKEUP, but I love Thanksgiving since my family always gets together. It's a great time to catch up, play games, laugh and tease. We also get to eat which I will never complain about.
2. Favorite festive food and/or drink - Thanksgiving Stuffing and my Auntie Debbie's Potato Salad made by my Auntie T.
3. What's the happiest part about fall for you? Knowing that this time of year is gearing up for the holidays and the time spent with my family and friends. We all live such busy lives and we can tend to take each other for granted most of the year, but during this time of year we make each other slow down and enjoy it. I truly appreciate that fall allows my family to start switching gears and reminds us why we work so hard all year long.
