The Perfect Fall Lip & 7 Shades I Can't Live Without

There's nothing I love more than a good fall lip color. I tend to gravitate to the more mauve/darker nudes anyways so the fall is where I tend to thrive. Today I am sharing with you, what I've found to be the perfect fall lip shade, as well as some of my other favorites!

Also, if you have a favorite lip shade that you just can't live without, please let me know in the comments! It'll give me the perfect excuse to go shopping and buy more makeup!

NYDJ-Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale

If you haven't heard of NYDJ, then I really don't know where you've been in the fashion world. 

NYDJ is mostly known for being a jean company tailored to women, but they also offer non-demin pants as well as pair-perfect tops. With the slogan, "Jeans for women, by women", they really place a focus on jeans that are of high quality and jeans that are scientifically crafted to fit the curves of a woman's body. NYDJ aims to make every woman feel confident as well as comfortable in their jeans. With sizes ranging from Petite-Plus, as well as maternity options, they really do have something for everyone.

This is a perfect opportunity for me to share these jeans with you all because on 11/9/18 Nordstrom is hosting their Semi-Annual sale & NYDJ are included! The sale prices are incredible and I'd hate for you to miss out of this!

Below I show you a couple different ways I've styled my very own pair of NYDJ.

Dress these up with a blouse & nude heels! Perfect for date night!

Loving how easily you can dress these down with a t-shirt & denim jacket!

Hurry and snag a pair for yourself or a loved one! I'm sure these will be selling out quickly!

Pretending to be a Model for a Day

When Destinee from Delila Grace Boutique, an online clothing boutique, contacted me on Instagram about modeling her fall collection for her website, I couldn't believe it! It has always been a dream of mine to model. I immediately said YES!

Delila Grace is such a great company and the owner is even sweeter! The shop features trendy plus size clothing, with sizes ranging from a 14-24! There really is something for everyone too. She has great basics and some very on trend pieces as well. The best part of this company.... She offers a buy now, pay later system through sezzle! Sezzle breaks down your purchase into 4 separate payments, every 2 weeks, with no interest! How freaking awesome is that?! For example, if you have an event to go to but are not able to afford a brand new dress or outfit at this time... you're in luck with sezzle! This company is seriously the best and I am so thankful to have had this opportunity!

I wanted to create a blog post featuring her clothing not only to share her pieces with you all, but to also look back on this memorable opportunity.
