Fall 2014 Wish List

Its been officially fall season for a while now. Sadly I haven't made an fall related posts. While carefully admiring the new fall trends I've gathered up some items (fashion and beauty) that I really need to have for this season. As well as a few new stores that I have been obsessed with lately.

1. Plaid Dress - Gojane.com : Two of my absolute favorite things this year have been the midi dress and plaid. Plaid has surely made a breakthrough this season. 

2. Red Satchel - Modcloth.com : The color red is essential for fall. As the seasons progress purses just get smaller and smaller. 

3. Faux Fur Vest - HM.com : I'm sure I'm not the only one (hopefully) who thinks of fur and different materials to wear when falls comes around. Fur is definitely need for fall, its chic and keeps you warm.

4. Glasses - Warby Parker.com : It's not a secret that I wear glasses. I'm obsessed with this site and all of their frames.My eyesight is terrible but that doesn't mean that I my eye wear has to be. If my wardrobe is updated for fall, so is my eye wear.

5. Quilted Sneakers - ShopJEEN.com : I feel like last fall, quilted was a really huge trend and it remained. It reminds of the classic Chanel quilted bags. So why not make your sneakers chic too?

6. Marc Jacobs Nail Lacquer - Sephora.com : Your nails shouldn't be left out when it comes to fashion. A must have color for this season is a deep red. 

Fall 2013 Beauty Trends To Try

     This season, there are so many beauty products and trends to try out but some can be very intimidating. But have no fear, here are a few looks to try and master.

The Bold Lip: This trend is known for the fall season. Fall is the season for darker shades of clothing and darker shades on your lips.

Strong Brows: Seen before on many models, this trend is one of the easiest to recreate. From just filling in sparse areas in your brows during your makeup routine, take the next step and shape them longer and darker.

 Colorful Mascara: This is the season for colorful eyes. A subtle color along your lashes can instantly add some spunk to your look.

Sleek Pony: This chic hairdo looks best in a high pony tail. It's very simple but requires high maintenance. If your hair is frizzy like mine, don't wear this on a humid day.

Must Haves for Every Purse!

I like to declare my self as a purse-aholic. But it's a very purse-onal problem.(Did you get my pun?No ? Awks)

This whole post is dedicated to the love , addiction I have with purses. These are the things I believe you certainly can't live without inside of your purse. First things, first- my purse is studded all over <3

     The basics are your phone, wallet and a small chap stick/lip gloss. No matter the size of your purse these should be here at all all time. In your wallet you should have your cards that are going to be used everyday( I.D, license, metro card.)

          

          

       
    Some next key items that I see myself having use for everyday are lotion and hair spray. I recommend travel size products so you don't have to lug around such large things. If you're a klutz like me, band aids are also a necessity.

                                  

    
    I really should carry around a makeup bag.... I also don't recommend carrying round your nicest or most expensive makeup. The makeup I carry around is mainly cheap and things I wouldn't mind if they broke.The little pocket on the side of your bad is where i store everything.In that pocket i have:

• Travel Powder Brush
• Pink Revlon Lip Gloss
• Sally Hansen Nude Lip Gloss
• "Sweet Mint" EOS Lip Balm
• "Grapevine" Maybelline Baby Lips
• Rimmel London Lipgloss "Captivate  Me"
• Express Lip Gloss/ Perfume Duo
• Ulta Blush "Girlie"
• Wet n Wild mascara
• Cover girl Lipstick Darling

                         

    
 Some random "staples" to my bag are a flashlight, house keys and a bracelet, (In case I'm not wearing enough accessories)

          

Lastly, you need a mirror in your purse. It is necessary to check your makeup and hair throughout the day! I own a vintage mirror that my mother gave to me. An old random woman gave it to her saying she used it in the 50's and it had a little compartment with powder in it.

        

       

 SORRY THESE PICTURES SUCK SO BAD!! My camera broke :(  
I hope you enjoyed and remember to add some of these items into your bags!
Stay Chic!

xo, Christina.
