Here it is, November 1st, I’m writing the November 2016 Lust-Have List in a lightweight tee and capris. Where is Fall, already?! Don’t get me wrong, there were a few cool days in October. However, the majority of the month was unseasonable warm. It got up to 86 degrees yesterday, which was Halloween. I actually saw some trick-or-treaters wearing flip flops with their costumes. That’s not right.

All horror and cool weather wanting aside, I’m here to bring you the list of things that I’m eyeing for the month of November. It’s still very fall-sy, because it cool weather has to come and stay this month. It has to!

What?! It’s already time for my Lust-Have List for October? It’s already October, but I’m still looking for August and September, because I don’t recall much of either month. Seriously, I have no clue what happened during those months other than both my brother and boyfriend had a birthday in August and my birthday last weeek. Maybe it’s because I’ve been spending so much time working, reading, and honing my friendships that I don’t remember much of my everyday norms. I’m not complaining, because I’ve been mentally and emotionally soaring. Dare I say beaming? No, a little too soon for that, but I’m soaring and I plan to keep soaring through October, as well.

October is a weird month for me, because it tends to be very chill and relaxing before the upcoming holiday season. The calm before the storm. I’m usually pumpped for the holiday season, because…you know….shopping heavily discounted sales is my thing. However, I’m in this real money-saving mode. I’m starting hate spending money on things that aren’t needed and even some things that are needed, like food and gas. Great time to start this new mentality, huh? Anyway, I can’t wait to see how this goes. *deep sigh*

Well, that’s it for now, because I just worked myself into a mini anxiety attack. Let me go pour myself another cup of coffee to soothe me this Monday morning. Please take a look at the few things that are on my radar in this month’s Lust-Have List!

Yes, it’s September, my favorite month! So, let’s welcome this month with the September 2016 Lust-Have List. In case you didn’t know why September is my favorite month, it’s because the first first official day of Fall (my favorite season) begins on September 22 and then 4 days later is my birthday on September 26th.  Although I’m not into making a big deal for or on my birthday, I’m always appreciative that I’m able to say I made it to another year on this earth. This year, I’m turning 35. OMG, I can’t believe it! Glad to make it to 35, but I really can’t believe it.

So, since it is my birthday month and the welcoming of fall, the September edition of the Lust-Have List is usually a birthday wishlist and foreshadowing of things I’m going to be into for fall. This year is no different. Please enjoy the September 2016 Lust-Have List/ My Birthday Wishlist.

It’s already  August?! Seriously, I feel like I skipped a month, because it seems too early for it to be August. Oh well, it’s here as well as the Lust-Have List for August 2016. I actually low-key love the month of August. This month, a few family members and friends have birthdays, the weather begins to slightly (and I do mean slightly) cools down a smidge, and all the back-to-school sales are popping. Although I don’t have any kids, I love any time of year that allows me to go hard at some sales.

Oh! Someone digitally tapped me on the shoulder and reminded me that I haven’t sent out a newsletter with my monthly eStylist look in a while. I checked and “a while” is about 6 months. Wow. I was so shocked and disappointed in myself when I saw it has been that long. Therefore, if you are subscribed to my newsletter (FYI, you should be!), you might want to look out for an “old friend” to pop up in your inbox some time this week. Probably sooner than you think. If you aren’t signed up, you can easily do so in the sidebar. Hint: Glance to the right.

Here’s to a great August!

New month and new Lust-Have List! July is the first official month of the second half of the year, which means we are half way finish with 2016. Crazy talk, I tell ya! Still, like the beginning of every new month, I get excited for all the upcoming things planned for the month. In my circle of family and friends, from July 9-21, I know someone who has a birthday EACH DAY. Needless to say, I have a couple of birthday dinners and festivities penciled in my planner for the next upcoming weeks. FYI, for gifts, I give gift cards or wine. Pick your poison.

Here’s to a great month full of success, health, and happiness.
