September was great, fast, but definitely great.  I had an amazingly chill and perfect birthday (September 26) weekend that I happily spent with friends and family…and even a couple of pleasant naps on my sofa. No shame and definitely no complaints. Ultimately, I’m just very happy and blessed that I was able to enter another year on this earth.

Hopefully, October will be just as great. The weather has been consistently chilly and I’ve even woken up to condensation on my car. It’s been hot for so long that I almost forgot that warming up my car was still a ‘thing’. Ha!

Let’s welcome October by checking out the things I’m crushing on this month on the October 2o15 Lust-Have List.

• This limited edition red Ombre’ brush set from Sonua Kashuk is probably one of the most illogical items I’ve wanted in a long time, because I practically already have all of the original version of these brushes and would only be buying them for the gorgeous red ombre’ look of them and for that same reason, I wouldn’t even use them. So, I would be buying these for decor…and I’m totally okay with that decision.
• Considering that we just had 90 degree temperatures last, looking for a winter coat is very premature. Still, this classic wool blend coat from H&M caught my heart and potentially part of my next paycheck.
• Leopard print is my favorite neutral for fall and winter. Yes, leopard print is a neutral and these buckled leopard print flats are so cute and can go with any look.
• I’ve recently been slacking on my skincare game and the main area of slacking has been paying attention to my eye area. Fortunately, I don’t have undereye problems, but I won’t to prolong that blessing. The last undereye cream I bought irritated my eyes…TREMENDOUSLY. So, I want to give Origins’ Planscription Anti-Aging Eye Cream a go, because I’ve had great results with Origins’ eye creams in the past.
• I haven’t owned a green handbag in a long time and I feel like that needs to change and preferably in the form of this chic and sexy Cali purse from Rebecca Minkoff archive collection. Unfortunately, it’s only going to be available for a few days. However, I will just have to think about all the memories we could’ve shared.
