Places I Want to Visit Before I Turn 21

As another year comes to a close, I realize that I really haven't traveled much at all in my life. I've been a few places, but for the most part school has held me back so much more than I've noticed in the past, and everyone says that traveling is something you should do when you're young- so consider this a bucket list for travel goals BEFORE I turn 21.

1. New York City, New York

2. Santorini, Greece

3. San Francisco, California

4. Oahu, Hawaii

5. Bora Bora

6. Paris, France

7. London, England, UK

Note that this list is to be continued ;)

Fall Outfit Essentials for November

So, it's Thanksgiving Break (finally) and Autumn outfits are everything on Pinterest and Instagram and everywhere else. But, despite inspiration around every corner and summer having ended three months ago, I still see girls in short denim shorts and graphic tanktops everywhere... That's okay if you're in a warmer climate and it's not fall where you are, but if you're in Oregon and it's 40 degrees and pouring outside, then PUT SOME CLOTHES ON. I know November is coming to an end but I thought I'd share some essentials for the end of Fall 2016.

-A cute jean jacket

I have a really nice light wash jean jacket from Old Navy, and it's looks AWESOME paired with some black leggings and a t-shirt. Plus, it's gonna keep you warm when that colder breeze comes through this Thanksgiving break...

 2. Some really comfy ripped jeans

If you're lazy and just not feeling it, then a nice pair of distressed jeans can completely pull and outfit together. The bonus- they look great whether they're baggy or tight fitting!

3. Black leggings

Black leggings are the little black dress of lazy Autumn days- they can bring your outfits from casual to classy with the snap of a finger, and you don't have to unbutton them when you've had one too many slices of pie this holiday season!

4. The coziest sweater you could ever dream of

Recently, I was at Aeropostale and I stumbled across the softest thing I have probably ever felt (aside from probably baby bunnies)- their sweaters. I got one in navy blue, and since everything was buy one, get two free that day, we got some for my sister and my mom too (for free!!!). Unfortunately I couldn't find it online for some reason, so I can't share it on the blog... :(

5. A long cardigan to pair with anything

I have two go-to long cardigans that I would wear every day of my life if I could- one of them is a really light, cute black and white chevron patterned one from H&M, which I couldn't find on their website again, and the other is a really nice navy blue shorter one from Old Navy. They can be paired with anything and bring lots of outfits from casual to classy + cozy, which is the perfect style for these cold Autumn days.

This isn't a fashion blog, but I'd really like to do more posts like this, and more posts in general since I took a super long break recently. I started a new blog that won't be shared to the public for a while, but I'm gonna have a lot of fun writing on it this winter!
