Fall Shopping Fun

I did some fall shopping today! This is my favorite season and I really love breaking out the warmer clothes, scarves, boots, jackets ...

Fun list of fall things ... now edited to include links for shopping!


1. Arns Boots from Aldo

I have a pair of black boots and I have my trusty, comfy, decidedly un-cute Uggs, but I didn't have a pair of brown leather boots. These look great over skinny jeans and I could wear them under dressier, roomier trousers if I needed to.

I got the Cognac color in the picture, but this style also comes in Black, Dark Brown & Taupe. I ended up going up half a size and will probably need some gel inserts to make walking a little more comfortable. Sometimes there is just no escaping that feeling of "oh my goodness, this heel is 4 inches high."


2. Ultrafine Turtleneck Sweater from Gap

Basic, but nice and warm for my HVAC-challenged office. It's very soft and comfortable. I got one in a deep eggplant color and may (read: will) end up going back for another color or two.















3. MAC Volcanic Ash Thermal Mask

(I got mine at Macy's but it doesn't seem to be on their website. Hmm. Anyway, $20 at the MAC counter at Macy's.)

I've been hearing good things about this and since my skin is in a bit of an uproar, I'm giving it a try! Review coming soon ...










4. Bare Minerals Mineral Veil Buffing Brush

Also from Macy's, this is the holiday special version which comes in a metallic pinky red and is pre-filled with Mineral Veil (and therefore costs you $5 more). I've linked it to the Bare Escentuals main site because, once again, I can't find this particular item on the Macy's website. I love me some Mineral Veil and this way, it can come with me each day without making a huge mess when I try to use it on the go.
