🍂🍁Fall Food Haul+Extras
I'm OBSESSED with Trader Joes.
So I stopped by today, and I had to share all my delicious food hauling as well as much FALL food!!!
So... To start it off..
They were giving out samples of this PUMPKIN ice cream and this PUMPKIN bread pudding. It was delicious!!!! 
Next.. I walked into the frozen isle and I saw macaroons. My life is complete. You just take these out of the freezer, defrost, and BAM. You have deliciously delicious French macaroons. I also picked up some soup, because all you have to do is heat these up and viola! Delish and easy soup! I love drinking soup in the fall to warm up! 
Lastly for food, I bought these two items because I'm going to be doing some fall baking soon and I would be needing these items!
And this last item isn't food, but is probably what I'm most excited for. 
So I don't know if you have tried their coconut body butter, but it's completely made out so many healthy and natural butters and not to mention, deliciously scented. For the fall, they came out with this pumpkin body butter,and I had to buy it!! Now I can smell like fall🍂! I really liked the coconut butter because it was super moisturizing and non greasy so I hope I love this one as well!
Well that's all I have today! If you are near a trader joes, stop by, and see what they have to offer! Until next time~ XOXO

Mini Beauty Haul!
I recently stopped by Target and picked up these three items:
Essie Grow Stronger
Maybelline Line Stiletto in Brownish Black
Elf Eye Primer
Lately I have been noticing that my nails have been quite weak, so I picked Essie Grow Stronger up hoping I could kill two birds with one stone, because it also doubles up as a base coat. I have yet to try this, but I will very soon. I believe it was a little more than 7 dollars.
As for the Maybelline Line Stiletto, I didn't realize I got it in brownish black instead of black until I got home.. Such a typical me mistake. *sigh* I did try it out though and I find it is quite easy to use. The brush is very steady, and easy to guide.
I might go pick up the black version after I try this a few more times.
It was on sale for $6.49 I believe.
The Elf Eye Primer I have been hearing a lot of hype for, so I picked it up!
I mean, it's only a dollar, right?
I will be trying it very soon, but I am a little skeptical. I think I will also try the Milani eye primer as well, as I heard it is a good dupe for the Urban Decay Primer Potion.
So that's all I picked up! Have you tried any of these items? Tell me in the comments below!
Until next time-

Styling a New Trend: Florals and Stripes
I have always loved mixing prints because it is a easy way to accentuate the other prints (ironically). So this trend is a great way to wear two prints together in a less "loud" way.
Stripes being very geometric and monochromatic, being put together with florals, colorful and random(ish) highlight each others opposing traits very well. There are also so many ways I wear this trend making it versatile for many different styles.
So here are my styling tips on how to wear this trend.
1. Choose a floral that is large, not small and patterned. While small patterned florals do look nice, put together with stripes will make you look a little too geometric and lined out.
2. Choose thinner stripes for most florals. Wide stripes sometimes draw too much attention away from the florals. But play around with it!
3. Standard rule. Vertical stripes on bottoms and horizontal stripes on top usually look best.
4. Keep your accessories and shoes solid colors.
If you want to go with a color other than a neutral, a good rule of thumb is to choose a not well represented color in the floral and use that. If you want just use black or brown, even nude! But I would be careful about white since 95% of striped items use white as one of the striped colors.
5. When matching florals and stripes, black and white stripes seem to go with everything! (Except floral skirts with navy as a base) Navy and white stripes are a great choice as well. But colors striped with white can always be paired with colors that complement well.
That's all! Have fun with this trend!
The great part about this trend is you probably already have these items in your closet!
I hope my styling tips helped!
Until next time!

Workout Motivation+Tips on Being More Active
Working Out Doesn't Have to Be Boring by lacedaisies featuring nike sportswearI know, it's summer, and we all want to have bikini perfect bodies. I mean who doesn't?
So here are some tips to get moving during the day and some workout motivation for you!
First of all though, you need to check out Blogilates on Youtube. She has tons of workout videos and healthy eating videos! Click me to check out her channel
She also has a workout calendar that groups her videos per day, so you can get the best possible workout! Click me to get the July calendar
I have been following her for a few months now, and I am completely addicted. She really keeps you engaged, and you will love her amazing personality and workouts!
Tips on Being More Active
1. When going anywhere, the mall, the gym, grocery shopping, always park FAR AWAY from the entrance.
2. Take the stairs, not the elevator. (Unless you need to get to the 29th floor in a rush. I did that once, not fun)
3.When brushing your teeth, do calf raises.
4. When watching television, do sit ups and/or push ups during the advertisements.
5. Get a pedometer, I know this sounds nerdy, but make sure you get at least 10,000 steps per day!
6. Walk when you can, don't drive and waste gas. *** Environment saving, WOOHOO!
7. When taking groceries from your car, don't kill yourself trying to get all the groceries in one trip, split it into a few trips!
8. If you have a dog. Volunteer to walk him/her.
9. Get a gym membership if you can. Make yourself go a few times a week! (I go every day!)
That's all I have for now! But if I think of more, I will make sure to edit them in!
Comment below if you have any tips!
Motivation
1. Cute workout gear. I know, it sounds shallow. But sometimes all a girl needs is some cute stuff to get her motivated? Ya know?
So, go out to Dicks, Target, Kohls, Pink, even Forever 21 and H&M, and make sure to pick up: cute shoes if you don't have any (I personally love Nike), shorts (running, yoga, whatever makes you feel the most comfy), tank tops and/or t-shirts, a cute water bottle, headbands, workout accessories for your phone or iPod, also a yoga mat, weights and anything else you think you will need!
After you picked up all the supplies, USE THEM. Hopefully everything is so cute that you couldn't bear for it to just be stuffed in the back of your closet right?
2. The Dollar Bill Approach. If you are not the easily motivated type go find a piggy bank, a jar or something that you can post a sticky note and put money into.
This is about what mine looks like:)
So after you find your money keeping jar, find something that you really want and either write it on the sticky note or print it out. Find something that is $20 or more.
Next find the amount in dollar bills.
Now here is the fun part. Don't buy the item that you really want, but every time you COMPLETE a workout, place a dollar bill in the bank. Only do one per day! Tally it on your sticky note, or something else, and when you get to the amount go out and buy the thing that you really wanted!
This way you are sure to get something that you wanted AND you get a rockin' bod.
Now, just keep repeating this process!
3. Track It. You can either use the calendar that you printed from Blogilates.com or if you aren't going to be using Blogilates, any other calendar will do. Just cross off every day that you exercise. When you get to one month, treat yourself to something special. Like ice cream or something!
4. Use Your Rest Day to Your Advantage. Everyone should take one day off per week. So tell yourself. "If I blow off today, then I will have to use my rest day as a workout day." every time you want to just not exersize.
5. Log. Log. Log. If you want to lose weight, or just look more toned, log.
If you want to lose weight, find a journal, and log your weight everyday. If you want to look more toned, take a picture of yourself, every first day of every month.
That's all! But if I think of more, I will add them in! Also, comment below! How do you motivate yourself?
I also wanted to say, no, appearance isn't everything. But working out isn't just about appearance. It is about how YOU FEEL and YOUR HEALTH.
If you would feel more confident a little slimmer, go for it. This is about making you feel confident and beautiful. You will only change if YOU want it. Don't think about how others think of you. Think of YOU and YOU alone.
Anyways! Thanks so much for reading!<3
Comment below any suggestions for future posts and anything else you would like to say!~
Until next time!

Fighting the Summer Heat
During the summer it's harder to look fashionable because of the scorching temperatures, but by wearing cute patterned shorts, a tank, and a necklace to pull the outfit together, as well
as a hat to protect you from the sun, you can be cool and chic at the same time!
Until next time! XOXO
