September Favorites! :)


Hello my Lovelies! :)
Today I bring you my list of September favorites... Oh september the month of Siberia, homework, and lack of sleep. The memories... But I know how cliché this sounds but September went by pretty fast; just like summer :( RIP... 

1) Green Day- 
OMGHHKP! Y'all have no idea I am in love with their new album 'UNO!' It is simply amazing! Even though it isn't as huge as American Idiot was but it satisfies my punk needs, which puts it in the number one spot... Btw, my favorite songs off the album are Carpe Diem, Nuclear Family, and Angel Blue :)

2) Kate Spade- 
This obsession has only developed this week but do you blame me?! She is a genius! 
...enough said...

3) Original Adjustable Hunter Boots in Fuchsia-
Long story short, I needed a pair of Wellies... And my friend got a pair,  I saw them and I fell in love! They are so cute and SO COMFORTABLE! ... and surprisingly warm... Plus the good thing about Hunter is that their boots come in so many colors so their's a pair or everyone :)

4) J Crew- 
I know, I know another clothing company but J Crew is pretty much prep central (besides Lilly, of course!) I haven't been in such a long time... It's pretty shameful, you guys :( hahaha but their bags and shoes are to DIE for! 

Well I hope y'alls September was a good start to fall :) 
Love always!

Update :)

Hello my Loves!
I'm sorry I haven't been posting in a while... I am currently writing this post in Russian class... I hope that tells you how busy I've been... But I have joined a play and got a pretty good role :) (Elmire in Tartuffe! YAY!) It is going to be AMAZING! Plus I have some pretty cool people in the cast so we're in good hands:) ANY WAYS! On a completely random note I am SO EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS! I just can't wait for the various scented candles and the warm knits... Uhh! PURE BLISS, LADIES! Oh and I went on a school trip to Siberia... Never thought you would here those words in the same sentence would you? ;) Yeah I thought so... Hahahahaha
But it was a beautiful trip and I LOVED every minute of it (besides the 7 hour bus ride from our camp to the airport :/) The weather was on our side and B-E-A-U-T-I-M-O-U-S! I will be posting a new post every Saturday. PROMISE YOU GUYS!
Love always!

BOOK REVIEW : The Probability of Miracles

Hello my Lovelies!
I know I haven't posted in a SUPER DUPER long time. But I have been really busy with school lately and as y'all know homework always comes first! And since we have been doing what seems like BILLIONS of tests last week I have had a lot of time to finish reading this book.
Yes, The Probability of Miracles by Wendy Wunder... A scoop of bittersweet, a dollop of realism, and a pinch of romance, maybe even two. ;)

Isn't the cover so amazing? Bright colors and feathers, is there anything else so girly? Nope. 
The story is told in third person about a cancer-filled Campbell. Cam has been in and out of the hospital and has always wanted to find true love, but the doctors think otherwise. So when her mother makes a final attempt to try to save her daughter by going to a small town called Promise, Maine. Now Cam is not the type of girl to believe that kind of thing since she as pretty much lost all hope... But when the family get to Maine a few very surprising things happen...

This book was such an easy read and I finished it relatively quickly... I love books that aren't too deep, if it passes a certain point of depth I'm out... No questions asked... I really loved this book, it is very honest and bittersweet. 

I would recommend this book to teenage girls aged 13-18 really... 
Next book review: Between the Lines 

Love always...

August Favorites :)

Hello my Lovelies!
Yes, yes, I know... It is already the 5th of September but, OH WELL! ;)


1) ITunes - 
I don't know about you guys but I can never part with my music. Something about it always keeps me going and makes me happy :) so it is a given that during those boring summer days when you are waiting for school to start (yes, I said waiting...) I needed a pick me up through out the day.

2) Bobbi Brown BB Cream - 
I am in love with this BB cream... It provides great coverage and stays on for a decent amount of time... It literally saved me from looking like an ugly mess the whole summer...
You can get it here.

3) Working Out -
This summer for me was all about starting my weight loss journey and part of getting to your ideal weight is to move your butt! *TIP! Try workout videos from BlogilatesTone It Up!, and Amanda Russell...* Those girls are SO much fun! And I'm sure they will TOTALLY kick your butt! (In a good way)

4) Instagram - 
Even though I'm not very active on the urnstagram I do love to look at all the "fitspiration" and "fitspo"... And there's just something about it I really can't describe it but OH WELL! I just think it's so much cooler then Facebook... No hate or anything!

5) SHORTS SHORTS SHORTS! - 
Because I'm the girl who wants to wear shorts because technically it is still 'summer' ( I say technically because it is already getting chilly in Moscow... :'( ) I bought so many shorts this summer; some from A&F, Hollister, Pink, etc. But they are super comfortable and ugh... I just love them!

Well that's pretty much it for my favorites I hope you guys have an amazing September filled with crunchy leaves and chunky sweaters :)
