Hair Talk

Here's the deal: when it comes to my hair I'm pretty very lazy. I hate to cut my hair, refuse to do highlights (way to much maintenance for this girl) and don't even really know what my natural hair color is anymore. Which is why I fully believe the ombre hair style was made for me. Not only does it cater to my laziness but it gives my hair dimension and it looks super cool. The only time I visit the salon is when I have a big event coming up, look in the mirror and realize my hair is out of control + really ugly. With that being said my brother gets married next Saturday which means I need start working on being wedding photo appropriate. So I'm off to the salon tonight! The plan is to stick with the ombre and I'm thinking something like this. Pretty much gorgeous and the perfect colors for fall. Fingers cross it actually looks like that!

Tuesday's Tune

Haim || The Wire

The three California sisters that make up Haim have got my feet tapping and fingers snapping with their new single The Wire [ps the video is hilarious] off their album Days Are Gone. The album is set to be released this Friday, the 27th [pre-order now!]. I'm also obsessed with their EP Forever released Oct 2012, my favorite song being Go Slow. But honestly, they are all good!

Also you guys, feel free to share any new music/songs/artists/bands/etc!

I love getting recommendations and suggestions and would love to share them in future Tuesday posts!

It's the Weekend!

Happy Friday, friends!

After a busy week I will be spending this entire weekend relaxing and tackling a few items on my to do list. Which for me, will be the calm before the storm since I am booked solid the next 5 weekends! And that isn't me complaining because it's all things I've been looking forward to: the Ohio State/Wisconsin football game, my brothers wedding, Pumpkin Show, and a college reunion just to name a few! Resting will be key if I'm going to survive it all, fingers crossed I do!

What are you all up to? Anything fun + exciting?

Closet Cravings || Phillip Lim for Target

French Terry Sweatpant :||: Boom Scarf :||: Navy Leather Jacket :||: Floral Peplum Tank

Animal Print Skirt :||: Mini Satchel - Taupe :||: Sparkle Sweater

I love when Target brings in a new designer line, although I have a feeling my bank account does not.
And the Phillip Lim line (now in stores) definitely does not disappoint. These are just a few of the items I have my eye on and first on my list are the french terry sweats, almost positive I'd live in these.

Closet Craving || Burgundy Booties

Pennylne Booties

These are pretty and I'm thinking they are a must for the fall.

Paired with a cute pair of skinny jeans, a cozy sweater, a beautiful bag and a messy bun is definitely the way to go.
