Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge: Fall Trends

Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge

I’m teaming up with Neely and Amber for their Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge! This week: Fall clothes/trends/makeup.

When I think of Fall, I think of when I traveled to Paris with my 4 best friends. We were in college visiting 2 friends that we’re studying abroad in the city of love. We got to stay at my friend’s grandmother’s apartment in Paris and it was an adventure. I felt free, fresh, happy and uninhibited.

It was cool, crisp, and well…Paris.

Here’s what I wore:

 

The Beret hat is so Paris. But it’s also so fall.

 

In this photo: Forever 21 military coat, chestnut Uggs, bow headband, skinny jeans.

My idea of a fall night-out outfit: Greens, whites, blacks, champagnes, and actual..champagne.

 

I love my friend Emily’s pop of color with her pink necklace (on the far right). Chic!

The makeup I wore in Paris and that I wear each and everyday is the amazing NARS bronzer–Laguna shade. This will keep you glowing amongst the bright colors of fall and give you a nice boost like the summer sun.


For your feet: Moccasins. These ones from Target (tar-jehhh) are what I lived in last fall.

Starbucks Pumpkin Latte Facebook App: Cures Boredom

Starbucks created a great new Facebook app to promote their Pumpkin Spice Latte. Yum.

Think your lovely face, inside of a pumpkin. You can adjust the photo you use, change brightness levels and more. It’s pretty fun.

Although it seems a bit early for warm drinks since I’m still in the summer mode (aka denial) Starbucks is doing a nice job at celebrating fall in a fresh new way. It’s getting me excited for the crisp weather and warm Starbucks in my hand while I purposely walk on crunchy leaves.

I admit, I’m entertained.

If you hit, “Make this your profile pic” it shows up on your wall in a new album titled “Starbucks Pumpkin Pics.” Nice job, Starbucks. I’m probably going to get a Pumpkin Spice latte as soon as I can, or maybe a Chai tea. I’m in the Starbucks-sit-and-watch-the-leaves-fall kind of mood. 🙂
