Why I like it: I Love the contrast between the cobalt and hot pink. This would be perfect anytime you want to go out and make a statement. Be Bold.

{Current Want: Christmas Edition!}

Christmas Eve is coming soon
Now, you dear old man
Whisper what you'll bring to me
Tell me if you can.....

It's finally that time of the year!! Kids are sending their letters to the north pole and trying to get on Santa's nice list. Christmas is hands down my favorite holiday! The lights, the smells, the parties, the gifts! While Santa makes his list, I'm making mine (and checking it twice!) I don't expect to even get anything on my list because I'm saving up for a camera and mainly asking for money for christmas but, I thought it would be fun to make a list anyways!


The List of Magic:
Canon EOS Rebel T3i
Anything or everything off of my Room Wishlist
New Pair of TOMS
Coastal Scents Warm and Original Palette
Nail Polishes
Candles
Makeup Mirror
$$$$$

I tried to keep my list very short and sweet. I have so many things to get rid of so I shouldn't think too much about things I want!

{Operation Minimalist}

Minimalism is key. This is my mantra for the month and maybe even a lifetime. I have realized that I have a lot of stuff that I really don't need. We always want and want without realizing all that we actually have. I know that I have plenty of boxes full of junk that will never see the light of day. I'm taking it one section at a time and really thinking about what I need and what I want. I'm trying to find the ideal amount of stuff that I think is appropriate. I will do some more detailed posts about how I plan to detox certain areas of my room/life. Hopefully you guys will join me in Operation Minimalist.

Why I like it: Cobalt and a greenish mustard yellow put together in one outfit. Do I need to say more? The dress has a very expensive look (And Price!). The cobalt adds some nice contrast. The very simple jewelry and makeup helps the outfit look polished without being too over done.

{My Fall & Winter Clothing Essentials}

Its finally getting cold here which is making me look over my puny winter warbrode. Considering that I spend most of the winter at home in my PJ's, I don't need that many winter clothing items but, I do have some items which are essential for my winter wardrobe.

Jeans/Jeggings- Hands down one of the most versatile pieces of clothing ever invented. I like jeans because they tend to be thicker and keep me warm but I prefer jeggings because they're comfortable!

Leggings- I love to wear a pair of leggings to sleep! I also like leggings because I can wear them under pants or skirts when it's extremely cold out.

Thick Tank Tops- Thick tank tops are a must for layering. I like to toss a thick coat or cardigan over a simple tank top or even go out in a tank top and hoodie.

Hoodies- Extremely casual and comfortable. That is all.

Oversized Sweaters- Oversized sweaters are an easy way to add warmth and style. They can look very causal or chic and posh.

Tall Boots- Keep your legs warm and look phenomenal with some skinny jeans tucked into them.

Blazers and Trench Coats- The pinnacle of winter fashion. Very sleek, crisp and cozy. What else could you want?
