I have been wearing my black, faux leather jacket from Forever 21 constantly. Dresses, t-shirts, this jacket goes with absolutely everything. It is perfect those days when you need an extra layer.
I have wanted a pair of purple, low top Converse for ages. They are such a classic style and are perfect for walking around campus.
I've been reliving my childhood with these two scrunchies. I am so glad that this 90s trend is back in style. I bought these two from Garage, and was it incredibly difficult to choose from the wide selection of patterns and styles!! I wanted them all. I think they add a cute, feminine touch to ponytails and buns.
Essie's After School Boy Blazer has been on my nails a lot this month. It is a deep blue shade, so dark that it is almost black. I was able to get away one coat of polish (I probably should have done two but I'm very impatient when it comes to painting my nails) and it wasn't streaky at all. Blue is my favourite nail polish colour and this shade was a perfect addition to my collection.
Being a history major, I spend most of my days reading thick textbooks and documents. Before I go to bed, I want to read something that does not require too much thought. Marie Claire magazine is the perfect de-stresser at the end of a long day. I was really pleased with the size and price of the magazine. It is well over 450 pages and was only $5.99! Marie Claire covers everything from fashion to philanthropy. The magazine is clearly big on female empowerment and showed many strong female figures!
I never know what to put on my lips during September. I was done with summer brights but was not quite ready for deep autumnal shades. I decided to go for natural/nude lips. L'Oréal Collection Exclusive by Colour Riche in the shade Jennifer's Nude is my perfect nude lipstick. The colour does not wash me out at all, and complements my light olive skin perfectly. Revlon's ColourBurst Lip Butter in Sugar Plum is very natural shade that adds just a hint of berry. This one is perfect for fall and is very hydrating. I received a sample of the Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Natural in N9 Copper Pink as part of the birthday gift for Beauty Insiders at Sephora. This lipstick just glides on and is incredibly flattering. I will definitely be buying the full sized tube when my mini runs out.
These two songs have been on repeat all month long. As you can probably tell from my blog title, I am a huge Taylor Swift fan. Her new single "Shake It Off" off of her next album "1989" is an incredibly upbeat song. Every time I hear it, I just want to start dancing. I can't wait for "1989" to be released!!
In my opinion, the most important aspect of a song is the lyrics. The lyrics to Ed Sheeran's "Photograph" are simply incredible. I love when singers write their own music because it makes the music just so much more personal. "Photograph" tells such a beautiful story. I hope Ed releases a music video for this song.
What did you love in September?
