November Wish List!

The month of November has brought to my attention how much stuff I actually need to get...(well want to get!) From makeup to clothes(ovi!) to jewelry to everything in between! Here is my November Wish List! 

Makeup!

1. Under Eye Concealer  : If anyone has suggestions for concealer please let me know! I'm trying to find one that will be good for covering dark circles! 

2. Bobbi Brown Tawny Pink Lipstick : Ingrid (aka MissGlamourazzi) had on this lipstick in one of her new videos and I love it! Looks like the perfect shade for fall into winter!!

3. Kat Von D Liquid Eyeliner : I've been eyeing a new eyeliner instead of my usual MAC Carbon eyeshadow I turn into eyeliner! This one seems to get good reviews!

Fashion!

1. Poncho : I've been wanting to get a poncho since the summer but never seemed to get one! Either I'm going to make one or buy one but I have to act fast before they go out of style!

2. Plaid scarf : I had a plaid scarf that looked like one from Burberry a while  back ago but I really want one that is red! Totally random I know but I still really want one! 

3. Flats : Of course, who doesn't need more shoes! One can never have too many shoes!!! I surprisingly don't have any flats except the Tory Burch ones but they don't fit me well at all and are very uncountable...I need to stretch them out or something soon! 

 

4. Mittens : It's getting cold and I need to cover my hands!! Vineyard Vines is getting a new mittens with whales on them so obviously I need them! 

 

Randoms!

1. Tall Mirror from Target : There's a tall mirror from Target that's around $50 I believe...So I can take pictures of my outfits for instagram!!!! 

That's it for now! I can't think of anything else at the moment! Follow me on twitter and instagram to see if I get what I need this November!!!

Fall 2014 Fashion Trends!

           Fall is rapidly approaching and you know what that means...2014 fall fashion trends! My favorite season (well one of my favorite including Spring when my birthday is!) for new trends, cozy clothes, warm colors, and crisp weather. Que the cute pug jumping in the leaves!

          See! He's happy about fall!! You should be too!! Just because it's back to school season doesn't mean it has to be completely awful! Just think about it...Fall means new clothes, new TV shows #cuddlebuddy, and hot Starbucks drinks! 

          I'm here to report all the new fall trends and my predictions/favorite fall looks for the upcoming season! As a fashion major a lot of my friends and family ask..."Lizz, what are the new fall trends?! What should I be wearing?!" well...I'm now going to direct them to this post because sometime I hate explaining things not gonna lie. Ok, sit back and relax! Here are the newest fall trends!

~pic~

       First things first colors! What are the newest fall colors to try out! My favorite from the list on Women's Wear Daily are Sangria, Aurora Red, Cypress, Royal Blue and Aluminum! Radiant Orchid is over used by now and in my opinion it's better as a spring/summer color. The reds and forest green colors are one's to watch out for!

        Like this forest green rain jacket from Urban Outfitters!!! I need to find a new raincoat for London and this one seems to be my pick of choice. I know I wanted a forest green or yellow (Misted Yellow) rain jacket. I looked all day and found this one on UO that I actually liked and didn't break the bank (too much! $89 and $69 on sale) I'm telling you right here, right now you will not be able to find a cute raincoat for more than $100...it sucks...This coat is perfect for fall and won't get all awkward when your wearing an oversized sweater as well! I gotta have it!

        CAPES....YES...Capes! I believe we are going to see a lot more capes in the upcoming season as a new fashion trend. I, probably unlike a lot of people, love capes. I have one and love wearing it! But if I had one like this one in the picture I'd be wearing it everyday during fall!

Ahhhhhh...the flare jeans! Oh how I've missed these jeans soooo much! I haven't worn flare jeans probably since the 6th grade (college junior now) and I'm so excited people have started to wear them again. I've been looking even since the 6th grade for a pair of flare jeans and couldn't find them AT ALL until now. Next time you are at the mall go and pick up a pair of flares!

Next up a vest! My favorites are the ones from J. Crew but being a poor college student I'm on the hunt for one cheaper. Keeping up with the forest green color as well, the J.Crew quilted vest is a perfect piece for fall. When it's not too cool and not too warm a vest is the perfect jacket accessory! Also the boyfriend jeans included in the J.Crew themed set I made on Polyvore are another ah-mazing trend! Have you actually worn a pair of boyfriend jeans yet? If not I suggest you do! So comfy!!!

Oh.em.gee...can we throwback to Lizzie McGuire and the jean mini skirt for two seconds. Obsessed. This trend may be coming from left field but I think some people will be making a statement in jean skirts! Also the red sweater! Oversized of course. Perfect for cool days when you just don't feel like getting all dolled up!

       I am most definitely not done with fall fashion trends for 2014! But to keep this post not looking like a novel I'm going to stop here. You'll have to follow along to read more! Check out my BlogLovin to follow (I'll follow back just let me know you followed!), follow my Twitter! YouTube channel! And my new Instagram account! Remember my Instagram account is the same name but different account! Oh! and Pinterest if your a pin-head like me! 

       Let me know in the comments below your favorite upcoming fall trends!!!! 

TTYL!

Lots of Love,

Let's Talk Fashion : Oversized Sweaters & Scarves!

Who's excited for fall fashions?! *raises hand in excitement!* Me!! I'm so sick of this hot hot weather, wearing ugly gym shorts and a tank top because it's wayyyy too hot to wear anything else!! So since fall is "coming".... I'm excited to finally going back-to-school shopping. I'm especially excited to wear oversized sweaters and scarves again! I've been pinning like a crazy woman on Pinterest of just about every oversized sweater with scarf pictures I can find! (Ps- that's my new uhbsession, Pinterest! Follow me HERE!)

(All pictures I found on Pinterest. Link source is HERE!)

Every time (Well not every time) but most of the time when I see Lauren Conrad in this outfit she looks effortlessly amazing! This is an outfit I'm dying to try out for the fall season! There's nothing better than wearing comfortable clothes for the fall season! So oversized sweaters and shirts are a must have for your wardrobe! 

________________________________________________________________

-------Tips For Wearing Oversized Sweaters!-------

1. Wear cropped pants to balance the bulkiness of the sweater!

2. Don't wear sweaters that are too bulky! Unless you want to look like Frosty The Snowman...

3. Try adding a collared shirt under your sweater for the "Preppy...Look at my I'm a college student" type of look! haha!

-------Tips For Finding The Right Scarfs!-------

1. If your scarf isn't knit than make sure it's wide so when you wrap it around your neck so it will look thicker.

2. Make sure that your scarf isn't thin and narrow! It's not going to wrap well or look like the look we are looking for. 

3. Infinity scarves work best for the look we are trying to achieve!
