A little early, but...

Halloween is slowly approaching, but I am quickly getting excited. Here are a few costume ideas I created using the ever-addicting Polyvore!

  

I'm all about "homemade" Halloween costumes. The store bought ones only get worn once and are usually made of not-so-cute materials. Which costume idea is your favorite? And what are you thinking about dressing up as?

Hello, Fall.

It's finally cooling down here in Oklahoma and, even though I love summertime, I'm ready to get back into my skinny jeans, sweaters, and boots. I mean, seriously, four months of 90°+ heat? It's too much. It's just too much!

I know some people still live by the "don't mix black with brown" rule, but I personally love it. And don't get me started on leather jackets.. I've been on the hunt for two years now and have yet to find the perfect one for under $100.

Pipe freshly whipped cream onto parchment paper and freeze for hot cocoa? I think I shall.

So true. Earl Grey and Marie Claire, please and thank you. Unfortunately, this adorable mug is out of stock at the moment..

Blueberry cobbler à la mode..in a skillet! I'll be making this as soon as it gets under 60° (and devouring the entire thing on the spot).

Love this thick, patterned sweater and I'm in desperate need want of a chambray button-down! This girl needs a job.

My roommate and I are dying to start decorating for Halloween, but we're trying to pace ourselves for October 1st, at least. I want our apartment to look like a sophisticated haunted house that doesn't have that gross fog machine smell.
