top five-floating on
With the Fall semester only a few weeks in, I already feel like I am floating from one thing to the next to the next to the next...like a never ending list of things to do! Its so overwhelming looking at my school calendar seeing all the exams, papers and projects I have to complete in the next few months! But I guess thats just how life is, right? Oh how I am longing for the carefree days of Summer. But looking forward to Fall as well. Hmm...a bit of a transition period I guess. Hope you had an amazing weekend and are ready for another week! Happy Monday.

fall favs
I am finally getting excited for Fall and cooler weather...especially since the past week or so has been over 100 here in LA. And I am most excited because I am getting SO sick & tired of my summer clothes and feel like I have nothing to wear when getting dressed (worst feeling). I hate standing there staring at all my clothes but not wanting to wear any of them! Im ready to bring out my favorite boots, cozy sweaters and leather jackets. Heres my Fall inspiration roundup !

slithering snakes
It is certainly nothing new but I have long been a fan of snake/serpent inspired jewelry (not so crazy about real live snakes though)! I love how a snake ring or bracelet looks wrapped around a finger or wrist. The look is so fun, yet chic as well-especially if its in gold with diamonds (my favorite)! I particularly love the thin rings and bangles because you can stack a few of them together! Are you loving snake jewelry as much as I am?

suede soles
I am really loving suede shoes for Fall-especially in a fun bright color. Have been seeing a lot of gorgeous options around and would love a pair but I am having a hard time narrowing it down. I do really love the royal blue-think it would look fabulous with an all black outfit or add a pop of color to a simple outfit and I do not own any shoes that color! Do you? My favorites are #4, #5, #6 (only size 9 left..sad) and I love the chunky platform on #10. Which pair would you pick? Oh and I am pretty sure all of my picks are under $200! Now that makes it even more difficult!! Help!

nailing it
One of the first things I change with each new season is my nail polish! Its such a quick and easy way to add a new color to your look. Since Fall is practically here I wanted to put together my favorite colors for Fall. I tend to stick to a few colors every season that I really love and always use Butter London, Chanel, Deborah Lippmann, Essie or OPI. This Fall I am loving shades of blue, green, gray and of course some glitter & metallics! What colors are you excited to try for Fall?

top five - labor day
Happy Labor Day everyone! Hope you are enjoying the last days of summer and soaking up every single last ray of sun and delicious bbq meal. What are you doing for Labor Day? Oh and as far as no white after labor day...pretty sure ill be keeping it around! I definitely do not follow the "no white after labor day" rule because how can you NOT wear white? I keep it around year round...it goes with everything. Do you?

bright blazers
I know Fall is right around the corner (hello September!) but its still Summer! And I am still loving the bright blazer look. Its obviously perfect for summer and I think it definitely can work through the Fall. Specifically pink blazers! I know bright pink may not be for everyone but pale pink/neutral colored blazers are gorgeous as well and can work for any season. I would love to add one to my wardrobe to brighten up any outfit! A pink blazer looks amazing with black & white stripes and equally fabulous with a pair of jeans! Would you wear a pink blazer?

etsy + art
There are seriously an endless number of amazing photographers on etsy it was hard to narrow down my favorites! I love that all of their photos for sale are extremely reasonably priced-hello new art! And that most of the sellers offer the prints in a variety of sizes. Art can be expensive so the photography prints from etsy are an affordable way to personalize your space! It would be fun to make a gallery wall or even just to use one of the prints on its own! Do you have any favorite sellers on etsy? Here are some of my absolute favorites.
