I know I haven't been keeping this blog strictly (or even primarily) about my outfits lately, but know that I have some outfit posts planned for the near future! Until then, here are some pictures of pretty things that I've stumbled across recently. Strange textures and eerie vibes are what I'm all about right now.

Saintly Death

1. I found the best/spookiest candle in the world! It says La Santisima Muerte, Saintly Death. My roommate picked it out for me and that's how I knew we were going to get along very well.

2. My favorite kind of manicure: high-impact, low-effort.

3. My go-to makeup look (when I'm not too lazy in the morning). Strong brows, dark lips, a bright pink flush, and loads of mascara. Messy hair and snake earrings a bonus. My Thor pez dispenser makes an appearance in the background (fun fact: I'm obsessed with Thor and I have pretty much no self control when it comes to Thor merchandise. I'm pretty upset that I left my plastic Thor helmet at home).

Isn't it nice to take a portrait every once in a while? It's pretty cool that I'm getting to the point where I can take photos of myself and like the way I look in pretty much all of them. It's so fun not to be camera-shy anymore! Now I'm just regular shy, which is okay with me.

I hope you all are well, and I hope you're brainstorming some brilliant halloween costume ideas! Now to get back to a towering pile of reading...

Recent Observations

1. Some of my delicate clothes being hand washed in the sink, resulting in an interesting pattern.

2. A bunny at the state fair that is my eyeliner inspo for fall

3. my current manicure. Peachy nude polish with a matte top coat that makes it look kind of like putty, almost kind of medical-looking if that makes sense? Accent nail is Sally Hansen Sugar Coat, which has the most amazing texture of any nail polish I've owned.

4. The sky at the state fair

I've just moved back into my room at school and started classes again. I'll hopefully get back to outfit photos soon, but for now here are some pictures I've taken recently. Good luck to everyone who's going back to school!

Pink and Green

These are the rest of the pictures I took on my trip that I wanted to share here. Pink with dark green is one of my favorite color combinations, so it's no surprise that I was drawn to those colors in my photos. This vacation has made me want to bring my camera everywhere. It's amazing how easy it is to take interesting photos when you have a camera with you all the time! You never know when you're going to stumble across something beautiful. That's photography 101 I guess but I'm still learning the basics.

1. My actual dream house in Kingston, Ontario

2. A closeup 

3. Mist in the Catskills

4. A cross on my grandmother's wall

5. A new pair of shoes and my trusty Frida socks (taken by my sister)

6. Me wearing my grandmother's fur stole that she gave me while I was visiting (taken by my sister)

7. The nail polish that I picked off during a long car ride
