Fall Obsessions

-

Fall has officially arrived in all its glory! Which unfortunately means some rain but also means it’s time for a Fall Obsessions segment! I've already done the Fashion Faves so I thought it would be fun to do some fall must haves too!

Honestly, I'm a summer gal, but I can't complain about the wool sweater and fluffy scarf weather. So here we are, it’s cold season and as a person who gets sick (all the time), but still loves the cool weather, I think a Fall Obsessions blog is a must.

David's Tea
I'm an obsessive tea drinker and there are two that I always have on hand in the colder seasons of the year.  Cold 911 is a must for anyone who gets sick in the colder weather, but also anyone who loves minty smells. This tea is so soothing it smells just like Vaporub and is perfect for any days you're feeling like you need a little boost. Sore Throat Rescue is my second fall must, yes the title is literally promoting itself as a sore throat tea, BUT the sweet vanilla and smooth flavors are so satisfying and bring in the very comfy fall vibes we all know and love.
if you're not a super tea obsessed human but would like to try tea, I definitely suggest any mint based teas they are comforting and fresh without being overbearing in any way.

Lush
Moisturizing is always important but especially as the weather cools down. Lush is my go-to for moisturizers, face masks and scrubs. They have a crazy amount of assortment and can find something for anyone no matter the skin type. My personal favorites are the Celeste face moisturizer and the Mint Cream face mask, both are soothing and refreshing without feeling heavy!

Mascara 
When you wake up for school or work and its pitch black outside, I don't know about you, but the last thing I want to do is wake up an extra half hour early to do my face. That being said I also don't want to look homeless, so Mascara is always a must, just to give me a little fab touch without being an overboard look which requires getting out of bed. Any go-to simple makeup look is key for fall, and also allows your fall fashion to shine! Nail polish is also super fun in the fall because it allows pops of color and is easy to do once a week!

Books
Cozying up to a book, with your fuzzy socks and a baggy sweater, is there anything better than that? I'm a geek in every way possible, which including being a book worm. I love some cheesy romantic books- shout out to Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han- but in the fall there’s something about poetry that gets to me. The way a story can be told without characters or a story line. The beauty and emotion are astounding, which go hand in hand with my fall season emotional breakdowns. My top current pick is Rupi Kaur's work “Milk and Honey”. Definitely check it out if you haven’t already! She brings her life to her readers in a really beautiful way, it’s a super powerful collection.

PS yes I have post-it’s in my copy :)

Thanks guys!!

Talk soon,

New Year Update!

-
 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

-
 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
