It’s October!! This is my favorite time of year and I’m in full-on basic b mode! The leaves are absolutely stunning, the weather is mild, and it’s no longer oppressively humid. Plus, I get to break out the fall decor and get more creative with my outfits!
I love sharing basically everything I love with you guys, so here’s just a random collection of my favorite things from September!
I got these booties during the NSale, and now that it’s been cooler I’ve gotten a chance to wear them a ton! These got almost no hype during the sale, which I’m still flabbergasted about – they are just so good! They’re comfy enough to go for a walk in and just get better with wear. The color (mine are “Tortilla suede”) goes with everything, and I love how the asymmetrical style and the perforated detail makes them a bit more special. I have wider feet, so I ended up sizing up half a size and they fit perfectly.
This year I discovered that I am very much a paper planner girl – it just makes me feel so much more organized and the act of writing things down helps me keep track of all the things better than any app ever did. So, I decided to invest in an Erin Condren LifePlanner. This planner is pricey, but I love that I was able to customize the cover, the coil, and the layout (I chose the horizontal). The quality is lovely and there’s so many note pages as well. It comes with stickers, but I also picked up some Me And My Big Ideas stickers (note: these are designed to fit the Happy Planner, so not all the box sizes match up, but that doesn’t bother me)
3. My New Hair!
I went to see a hairstylist for the first time in 5 years in September. Vanessa at Hair On Second Avenue did such an amazing job! Definitely the best salon experience I’ve ever had – highly recommend if you’re in the Ottawa area. My hair was quite damaged from bleaching it myself, so we decided to give it a break and let it grow out. She did a shadow root with lowlights to blend my blonde into my natural dark roots, and toned it to a beige blonde. I just love it so much!
If you follow me on Instagram, you know how obsessed I am with this thing. I wasn’t sure I was a hat person, so I wanted to try an inexpensive one that I could return easily. Now, I can’t stop wearing it! I love how versatile hats are, and how they can spice up a basic outfit. Also, this one is adjustable, which is a must for me and my small head!

5. 2 Ingredient Apple Cobbler
So clearly I like cobbler, because in my August Faves I talked about peach cobbler haha. But this apple cobbler is perfect for fall and is the easiest thing ever – just Pilsbury cinnamon rolls and apple pie filling. I can’t take any credit though, the recipe is from Talia Fickel (in her IG story highlights). This is for sure going to be a fall tradition for us now!
