October 2015 Boxycharm Box

I LOVE subscription boxes because it’s like Christmas every month. And ever since I decided to cut down on buying makeup, it’s like a free pass right? Cause technically, I’m buying a box of beauty products and if it happens to come with a new lipstick or mascara, then who’s fighting?

Boxycharm is a subscription box where you get 5-6 full sized high end beauty products for $21 a month. Let me just say that it’s definitely worth your money because the boxes often come with products that total at more than $75 dollars which is crazyyyy.

My October box was one of my faves, not only because of the black packaging of all my products that made it perfectly spooktacular, but also because I got some amazing products that I’m gonna share with you right now.

DIY Fall Room Vibes

Hello babes!

Today’s #Falloween video is all about simple ways to get your room (and even yourself) in the mood for fall. There’s also a free download for a cute fall themed wallpaper for your phone and I love how it makes me feel every time I turn on my phone. Hope you like it as well!

Anddddd I also show how I restyled my blogger inspired desk shelves and changed it up from the original decor to one that’s more fitting for this time of the year. Now, I’m not sure if I’ll ever want to go back.

I lie, I lie. I can already hear winter themed styled shelves calling my name…

October Plan with Me | Ban.do Agenda

It’s that time of year when hues of orange fill the world and I must say, since my fall-tastic time in NYC, I’m kinda in love with this colour as well. It’s also that time of the month where I share with you how I plan in my Ban.do Agenda. Right now, I like the word “Falloween” so I think that’s gonna be the theme for this month, since I’ll be doing a cross between fall and Halloween videos.

So first up, here’s my Falloween themed planner spread- and yes, don’t mind the overload of pictures below. What can I say, my planner is quite photogenic. Oh and btw there’s also a Falloween planner supplies haul coming soon so stay tuned for that!

P.S. this PWM (plan with me)  is a collab with my friend Melissa from MelsMakeup88 so be sure to check out her video here and tell her I sent you.
