Rained Out!

I was so proud of myself today! It's the end of my second week of classes and I had to be at work at 7:30am. Rather than roll out of bed and go on campus in my pjs I actually got ready. I straightened my hair, I had a cute outfit on, I did my make up. I was good to go. Except I forgot my umbrella.

And it POURED on my walk back home for lunch. My least favorite part was having to hurry and get dried off to get back for class in an hour.

Can you tell how soaked that shirt/dress is??

Discovered Treasure

I am such a big fan of nail polish that I actually have a couple of polishes that I'm constantly on the lookout for. I mean specific polishes, from specific brands that I want. I always have general colors for the season that I would like to own, but these two polishes were much more specific than that.

They are Pacific Blue from Sally Hansen and Tart Deco from Essie. I have been on the hunt for these two for months! I used to be able to find Tart Deco, but had passed on it since it's more expensive. And when I decided to go ahead and get it, it was always sold out. Pacific Blue, on the other hand, never seemed to be sold in stores near me. There wasn't even a spot for it in the Sally Hansen rack.

Clearly I found them and I am so excited that I did! I had stopped by an out-of-the-way CVS (it's much bigger than my normal one) to pick up some random things with Tim. I had promised him that I would only be getting this one face mask and that I would only look at the make-up while he got his stuff. I had no idea what I was going to find!

Style Inspiration

When you're looking for a new style or outfit ideas where do you look? Do you look for actual outfits that are already styled and complete? Do you look for general color schemes? Or is it just the feeling of the season that inspires you?

Lately I have found the most inspiration from pictures like these...

I still like looking at outfits on Pinterest and fashion blogs, but there's just something about these color palettes that put me in the fall mood. It's funny because even though I'm not dressing for fall quite yet, I've already started painting my nails in darker colors.

These last two pictures are definitely bright and maybe don't make you think of fall, but the blue undertone makes them feel more seasonable.
