Pumpkin Spice

My absolute favorite thing about fall is pumpkin everything, especially lattes. I'm not a frequent coffee drinker but I've been getting them at least 5 days a week. So this post is dedicated to my favorite things about fall: pumpkin lattes, jackets and cozy socks.








I've been practicing my jumping pose but I've still got some work to do with my face mid-jump. So obviously the only sensible thing to do is replace my face with a cat's. 


You are the light of my life

Bad Girls Do It Well

     This outfit is pretty different from my everyday style. I've been listening to/channeling a lot of M.I.A and Azealia Banks lately, so the saddle shoes+cardigans just didn't feel right. I bought this moto jacket recently and have been dying to wear an outfit that fully encapsulates the badass I feel like/AM when I wear it. I probably wouldn't wear the sports bra in public because I'd feel really exposed which is not something I'm used to or comfortable with. But it was fun to pretend in the comfort of my backyard!
     I used to wear these pink docs nearly every day when I was in high school, but for the last year and a half I've primarily been wearing saddle shoes. I loved walking down the hallways in these docs; I felt like I could crush anyone who even looked at me funny. It's weird how simple things like shoes or a badass jacket can alter your mood and make you feel invincible. Anyway, this shoot was really fun and ~empowering~ so it's clear that I need to  channel M.I.A into my everyday style/attitude.

White Collar

This is an outfit I wore over the weekend. It was a result of pure laziness, but I like the result! I slept in those socks because they're so warm and cozy, and I knew I didn't want to wear pants (like practically every other day of my life) so I just threw on the first dress I found and a cardigan. I took a few photos but thought the outfit was missing something, so I added a DIY collar I made back in July and hadn't gotten around to wearing. They're really simple to make; you can follow this tutorial by Rookie for a quick DIY or this if you want to sew a collar yourself.
My dress looks a bit weird in the second photo because I tied the straps in the back so my neckline lined up with my collar.







I always like the way the blurry ones come out best
Collar- DIY
Dress- Marshalls
Cardigan- Gap
Socks- Steve Madden
Shoes- Bass


I've been singing this song the whole time I was making this post.
