Am I the only one who's in total disbelief that it's already October?! I enjoyed a relaxing weekend filled with nostalgia since we were able to score one of the highly anticipated SNES Classics, and we thought the local Bacon and Brews festival was going to be rained out (newsflash - it wasn't) so we stayed in town. Between games of Super Mario World, Zelda, and Super Mario Kart I baked my first fall treats of the year ~ pumpkin chocolate chip cookies (recipe found
here), and shopped the sales. So, I decided to round up some of my favorite items that can all be found at great discounts. Because who wants to pay full price?
It's not fall without a go-with-everything pair of ankle booties, and my favorite pair the past few years has been
these slouchy peep toe beauties. Since it doesn't get chilly here until the calendar says winter, they're great paired with dresses, skirts, leggings, and shorts. Once it cools down, I'll pair them with my go-to denim as well. Did I mention they're comfy enough for all day walking at the local fairs and festivals too?

One of my favorite dresses ever is
this ruched body-con number that I wore on the plane to
San Francisco, and it was the perfect cozy piece for traveling and hitting the ground site seeing once we arrived. It's not on sale *womp womp*, but I have seen it go on sale so keep an eye on it if you're looking for a discount. I'm just excited that there are now 8 colors to choose from as it's a total closet staple. I am definitely scooping up more! It's great on it's own or under a jacket.
The prep in me lives in J. Crew's
chino shorts which I only scoop up when on sale. I love all the bright color choices, and how they go with my cozy tanks, tees, and slouchy sweaters.
My favorite pop of leopard are
these shoes which I wear with shorts, pants, skirts, and dresses. In the words of Forrest Gump, "These are my magic shoes, momma said they can take me anywhere!"
Influenster has hit another one out of the park. I received the Ecstasy Shine voxbox over the weekend, and have been having so much fun testing out these amazing lippies. I love that Smile is a great every day color, and I can see Four Hundred being on repeat for the holiday season as a fun bold red.

Speaking of sales, there is a big one going on at
Mixology featuring brands like BB Dakota (one of my all time favs), Gab & Kate, and J.O.A. You can shop this amazing sale
here through Tuesday, October 3rd.
