Today I made, for the first time ever, PUMPKIN SPICE MUFFINS!

They are SOO delicious...

SO many of my friends were posting pics and statuses about having their first 

pumpkin spice latte of the season

I have had a can of pumpkin pure sitting in my pantry for months and months

& I thought this was the perfect time to use it!

This is a Pinterest recipe that i made a few modifications to!

Easy Peasy Side Bun...

Tried out, for the first time, not just ANY bun... but a sock bun! 

It took me a few tries to get it figured out

but when I did it was quite cute!

I Also did a french braid first to pull all the hair to the side.

And from the ponytail of the french braid, I rolled my hair up into a sock bun.

Def. will be doing this hair style again!

Right now I am using an old sock of Chads haha

so i might need to invest in an actual foam sock bun :P

Was an awkward way to take the picture...not sure why I didn't just point the camera behind me lol!

But hey, it worked! 

New Boots...

I have been LOVING my new Roxy boots!

Perfect for the end of summer and into the fall.

I purchased them at Below The Belt.

& They are really cute to throw on with some leggings!

The leggings I also purchased at Below The Belt...On Sale for so cheap!

They have quite a few other cute boots as well....

Might have to get another pair ;)

Cute Curled Hairstyle...

The other day I felt like curling my hair

Which I don't do very often.

& I had watched a youtube video on this really cute hairstyle

And I just had to try it.

(Youtube channel -- LuxyHair)

Surprisingly it was super super easy

& it turned out the first try!

And I am not someone who can do hairstyles easily!

So I just had to share.

1. Start by curling your hair. Whether you want tighter curls or looser curls is up to you.

          With this hairstyle, you don't have to worry about having perfect curls everywhere either!

2. Back comb the top, middle section of your hair all the way to where you will be gathering it in the back.

3. Pull a little section of hair from above your right ear, pull it around the back of your head, and bobby pin it to the left side of your head at the back.

4. Pull a little section of hair from above your left ear, pull it around the back of your head, and bobby pin it to the right side of your head at the back. 

5. Take a little section of hair from between those two points where you bobby pinned, and twist it around and around to form a little "rose" and pin that down with bobby pins.

6. And VOILA.

Not sure how well of an explanation that was. 

But between the explanation and the picture I'm sure it could be figured out :P
