27 fall looks i'm loving

I'm constantly on the 'gram taking screenshots of outfits I love and then doing nothing with them.... so I figured, why not gather them all on one fabulous post? That way, not only do I have a more convenient place to find them, but you can see too!

Most of them come from the @liketoknow.it account because, duh, it's a gathering of all the best bloggers. 

Dressing down all that glitter- yes. 

Surely you already know these button down suede skirts are EVERYWHERE.

So many colors and patterns in one!

Sometimes looks are so simple and effortless and I swoon.

How come I don't look this cool when I throw a jacket over my shoulder?

Plaid, camel, booties. There ya go, fall! 

Hopefully we all have the striped dress, army jacket, and booties staples in our closets already.

Okay these over the knee boots and the vest and the fringe... a lot of pieces coming together flawlessly.

Note to self: Folded over socks are cool again. This is literally the easiest outfit ever.

All black everything, and a navy purse?! The hat, the vest... I want it all.

Turns out grey and camel/brown can actually work together in beautiful harmony.

Dear Santa, can I have this skirt that matches my hair?!

Turtleneck gets surprisingly more sexy when you pair it with over the knee boots. 

I think I'll always love an outfit with a hat... and/or a skater skirt.

Everyone's talking about gold make-up... and this is the simplest and best version I've seen.

I'm also a pretty big fan of Jacy Overstreet's simple style. 

The black/white/grey/denim= must do.

How come the shirt around the waist doesn't work this well for me?

And props to @fashionablykay as well

I've learned that ripped black jeans are all an outfit needs right now.

And my girl Kendi

A reason to stock up on graphic tees? Darn.

Some celebs also know how to help a girl out... 

Zendaya just rolled out of bed and looks amazing. Sigh.

Hi Redskins colors on my girl Melissa Rycroft.

Ali Fedotowski also combining a bunch of trendy pieces for that basic but great look.

So when you see me post an outfit, it's probably a total copycat. I'd check one of those accounts for the real credit. I'm just keeping it real, duh.

recipe: garlic-pumpkin hummus

We had a company potluck today, and even though I've sworn [after learning the hard way] that I wouldn't make something I've never made for a party, I did it. 

I wanted something different and fall-y... so, PUMPKIN duh! Even though I'm not a big hummus person, I decided to throw some of that together. 

If you have a blender or a food processor, it's hella easy and... good! [Even though I didn't find that out until the end of the party cuz I was too scared to try it ahead of time in case it sucked... then I'd have an excuse. "Oh man, I had no idea!"]

WHAT YOU NEED: 

-2 7.75 oz of chick peas

-1 cup of pumpkin puree

-1.5 tbs olive oil

-1 tbs tahini

-2 cloves/tbs minced garlic

-1/2 tsp ground cumin

-1/4 tsp cinnamon

-pita chips to eat it with!

WHAT YOU DO: 

1. Blend/puree the chickpeas and olive oil. 

2. Add in the pumpkin and do it again. 

3. Add in all the other ingredients. [FYI this is what tahini looks like. Kiiiinda weird, but smells delicious!]

4. Mix it all up, chill in in the fridge for a little, and BAM! Enjoy!

Seriously... how easy is that?! I had about two hours to work with this morning, and this took maybe 15 minutes!

BONUS: Pumpkin is an aphrodisiac... especially for guys. Hellloooooo office drama!
....I mean... what?!

peek at the latest from lc lauren conrad at kohls!

I'm in love with this whole "get a peek at the new collection every month" thing. It's gonna do damage to my wallet, but whatever.

Here's the latest from our BFF LC.

Monochromed navy? Not mad at it.

These look a little shiny, no? I'm intrigued, and I want.

Note to self: Jump in the air when taking the next outfit photos.

This is how you wear shorts in the fall! In love.

Okay these little chest embellishment shirts could become my new obsession. How easy and cute is that?!

BOWS. ARE. BACK. And couldn't be more adorable. Glad I saved all of mine from high school!

There's a whole lotta navy blue going on, but it matches everything, so who's complaining?! It's time for me to keep a close eye on the sale section at Kohls.com and wait for some of these babies to be in my price range. 

Also... I would tell you that there's a giveaway on her blog right now... but like... that'd lessen my chances of winning. 

love,

PS you're welcome.

watch: lady gaga falls... twice.

This happened a couple days ago, but somehow I'm just stumbling upon it. For whatever reason, I haven't seen too much talk about it, so it's absolutely necessary to share.

I shared pictures from Lady Gaga's Monster Ball, which were totally scary to me, but now I shall share a video. A video that will make you laugh.



No more making fun of BritBrit for yelling the wrong city name or not dancing to her fullest potential. Not only does Gaga look completely wasted, she's not dancing well at all, and she falls... hard... TWICE.

Aye yi yi... This girl is headed for a trainwreck... And it's not going to be pretty.

I hope you wear padded buttocks, Lady.

love,
