September Wishlist

This week in north Texas it's been surprisingly cool. The lows have been in the 60s and highs in the low 80s. If you live in Texas you know that this normally doesn't start happening until after Halloween. I've already bought my stockpile of Bath & Body Works fall scented hand soaps and candles in anticipation for the cooler weather. I'm ready for Halloween and Thanksgiving!

I'm already looking forward to making the fb invites for our annual pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Dinner that I normally host for all our close friends. This will be the 6th (I think?) year we've done it. Everyone brings a classic (or not so classic) Thanksgiving dish and we all sit down and talk and eat delicious food. It's always fun and it's a nice way to see everyone even if we don't live as closely as we all used to. I secretly hope that we'll continue the tradition even as we all move away and have kids and separate lives. It seems like a really nice way to keep in touch with one another.

So here's my wishlist for this month! I've already bought the green cords from Gap, haha oops--guess it doesn't really count anymore. I'm hoping they fit since ordering pants online seems sort of like a crapshoot.

Are there any cooler weather items you have your eye on already?

Spring/Summer Scents

I was never very interested in perfume growing up. Granted, I was a tomboy pretty far into high school. Once I got to college I started wearing makeup on a regular basis, but it wasn't until about three/four years ago that I really started enjoying it. Recently I've started trying new things and being a little less picky about scent, especially since often you can't tell what it smells like until you smell it on yourself.

That being said, I have specific & favorite scents I use mostly in the winter and ones I use exclusively in the warmer months of the year.

These are my favorite spring/summer perfumes!
