Sorry I haven’t been doing many budget posts since July… mostly this was because I didn’t really set a budget for each month. I didn’t want myself to purchase anything clothing related until I had completely cleaned out my closet. But let’s be honest, I knew from the start that wouldn’t happen! So here is what I got this month… unplanned but I feel pretty good about it. Technically the “bag” I got is an iPad case, but it will actually fit all my going out necessities and day-time necessities! What did you buy this month?

Peter Pan

Whenever I wear these green tights, I always think that I am being Peter Pan for a day. I have always dreamed of going to Neverland. It would be nice, wouldn’t it?
Halloween Happy Hour

Well it is that time of year when you can wear orange and black together without feeling like you are dressing for Halloween! Why? Well because it is Halloween time right now… yay! I love the idea of orange and black together and what a better time to pull out your favorite black and orange pieces than now?! I am taking today off to bake and get ready for our 2nd Annual Halloween party tomorrow (called Spookify) and I wore this last night to happy hour with the bf. Sometimes there is nothing better than an outfit with a hint of color and of course a sparkle clutch! Double stripes, black blazer, orange scarf and sparkle clutch? Yeah pretty much all of my favorites in one outfit! HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I know it is still a few days away, but I’m sure you all have parties and events to attend this weekend that are Halloween related! Stay tuned for some fun Halloween baking, decor and costume posts in the upcoming days!
Quick, Fun & Easy Halloween Costume Ideas

If you already know what you are going to be share below!
Put a Vest on It

I wore this to work last casual Friday and it was super comfy. I honestly was running 20 minutes late that day so I didn’t have a lot of time to decide what to wear… then my bright gingham blouse looked right at me and said “CHOOSE ME” so I did. But something still didn’t feel right. Too blah, too plain, I needed another layer of course and just as I was about to give up and deal with my outfit the way it was I saw my sleeves sweater vest hanging all by itself. It had been awhile since I had worn it and I knew it would keep me warm, add another layer and be great for a Friday in the office.

You’re the Apple of My Eye
I had an amazing weekend… Friday night and Saturday were a bit “lame” as I stayed in and cleaned to prepare for our 2nd annual Halloween party. I spent 5 hours in the kitchen/pantry area alone. Yeah there was some dusting and re-organizing to be done that took me quite awhile. Anyway, we headed to the apple orchard on Sunday and I got to pick two bags of apples (and completely acted like a kid again… the bf was glad we didn’t bring the pup along because he felt like he was taking care of me… haha). Looks like I’ll be making apple pie this week and eating apples everyday for breakfast and a snack! I can’t wait though, this week is going to rock! Tuesday is the Halloween Pretty Little Liars episode, I am taking Friday off to bake for our party on Saturday, going out Friday night as in my first costume and Saturday is our party! The bf, the pup and I will be coordinating on our costume that I’m pretty thrilled to show you all next week! What are your plans for the week?! Looking forward to any upcoming Halloween events? Have a great one!
