My first favorite of the month is a little coffee place I found called Cafe Nerro. I saw it on instagram and decided I had to go. The inside of the shop is beautiful and it has some really nice features like how the walls are lined with books.The food is fantastic as well haha.


There’s also a book store very close to it so we decided to check it out and it was the best decision. The store was super cute and cozy inside. They had a ‘blind date with a book’ section and I decided I needed to buy one and ended up getting the ghost mystery story. It’s called White Tears and I haven’t gotten to start it yet, but the cover looks so cool.


My next favorite was Troye Sivan’s concert and it was amazing. He was so good (like always), but my favorite part was the fan project where people handed out rainbow sheets of paper to hold up during ‘Heaven’. I also got a super cute Blue Neighborhood pin because I am currently loving pins.


My last favorite of the month is Simply Christmas by Leslie Odom Jr. Yes this is a Christmas album but it came out in November so it still counts. I have been obsessed with this every song on it and constantly have it on repeat. I love how minimalistic it is and he is just such an amazing singer. My favorite is probably either ‘My Favorite Things’ or ‘Winter Song’, but I do love all of them.

And that’s it! I didn’t have very many this month but I really wanted to share these with you. It’s finally Christmas time though and I’m very excited.
Love,
Lexi

Eyeshadow is one of my most favorite things and you cannot get any better than fall toned eyeshadow. I mean, fall is the best season. So, when I saw this palette had so many gold and copper toned eyeshadows I knew I had to have it. This wonder is The Nubian palette by Juvia’s, and it’s my new favorite thing.


I’ve heard so many people raving about this palette and it looked so amazing. It has every warm neutral color you need from light to dark. There’s so many gold, copper, and burnt orange shades, but there’s also some really nice warm browns. I love the combination of mattes, shimmers, and really shimmery eyeshadows. It’s everything you could need.
I swatched a few of my favs and as you can see, the super shimmery ones have unreal pigment. I love to put a shimmery color on for a base, then a really shimmery one in the crease and then a matte color in the outer and inner corner. I prefer to put matte shades in the outer corner because I feel it gives more definition.


What do you think? Any fall eyeshadows I need to know about?
Love,
Lexi

Now all I need is the Autumn weather.


A few days ago I decided that it was officially time to get the autumn decorations out. Yeah I know ‘Autumn technically hasn’t started yet’, but I consider all of September autumn. In my decorations of course I had to include a few candles. Since I burned through all the ones I bought last year, I decided to get some more. Autumn is the BEST time of year and candles just make everything 20 times better, so the choice was clear that I needed to go out and spend all my money in Bath and Body Works.
First off is Flannel, which is one I didn’t have last year. It’s described as having fragrance notes of crisp autumn air, bergamot, heirloom mahogany, and soft musk. This one is more of a fresher scent. A lot of autumn candles usually have a spice sent to them, but if you prefer a fresher more cleaner smelling candle this is the one to get. To be completely honest, this one smells like really nice cologne haha.
Next are two sweeter scents, Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte and Cinnamon Sugar Donut. I absolutly hate really sweet smelling candles but these definitely do not have that sickly sweet smell. Both are fairly sweet, but kind of a muted sweet. A lot of people say they can barely smell Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte which is weird. It has fragrance notes of pumpkin latte (surprise, surprise), toasted marshmallow, creamy sandalwood, white ginger, and praline musk. Cinnamon Sugar Donut is one that I love because every year my family goes to a festival in the autumn and they have the best cinnamon sugar donuts, so it reminds me of that. This one has fragrance notes of crushed cinnamon, sugar crystals, and handmade donut.
Leaves is one that I didn't have last year and is one that a lot of people seem to like. It has fragrance notes of crisp red apple, golden nectar, and warm clove spice, but the apple definitely stands out the most. Then there’s Sweater Weather, which is what I wish it would be, but summer’s just not giving up. This one has fragrance notes of fresh sage, juniper berry, aromatic eucalyptus, and fresh woods. Both of these candles have a fresh scent but also still a spice that makes them autumnal.
Last but certainly not least we have Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin. This has everything you want in an autumn candle and is my absolute favorite. I’m pretty sure the spice in this one is why I love it so much. It has fragrance notes of harvest pumpkin, spiced clove, vanilla cream, and brown sugar. Surprisingly it doesn’t have cinnamon, haha.


That’s it, we’re done! I hope you enjoyed reading about what I spent all of my money on. What’s your favorite autumn candle?
Love, Lexi

Last week I spent some time in one of my favorite places, Disney. I wanted to share with you some of the things I did and pictures I took from my stay, I hope you love them!
I decided to wear my Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick by Too Faced in the shade ‘Lady Balls’ because it went perfectly with the the red bow on my Minnie ears. It was also incredibly hot all week, yet I still chose to wear all black most of the time whoops.

Magic Kingdom is probably my favorite park because it has the prettiest things to photograph. Especially the Festival of Fantasy Parade which I absolutely love. All the floats have such bright colors and you can get some really nice pictures. The steampunk dragon is one of my favorite parts. :3

We ate at a few new places this trip. First of all was Jungle Navigation Co. Ltd. Skipper Canteen, which is legitimately the Jungle Cruise, but as a restaurant. It was fantastically themed, 10/10. Tiffins was the other new place we had dinner at in Animal Kingdom. They don’t have the most normal foods here, as one of the options is a whole fried fish, head and all. Unfortunately, no one would let me order it haha.

Over in Epcot, I spend a lot of time at the Japan Pavilion because it’s my favorite; mostly because of the Rilakkuma section they have. I’m always sure to pick up a few things from there. I really wish they had more Gudetama products, as I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t love him. I also go a little bit overboard with buying Japanese candy, but it’s just so delicious. Some of my favorites are the Matcha Kit Kats and Strawberry Koala’s March.

I also realized that most of the pictures I took at Epcot were of my food, but look at how perfect this ice cream is so how can you blame me. Also, I absolutely love the Peach Bubble Milk Tea they have at the China Pavilion. If you love bubble tea like me, you should definitely give this a try.

While we were there we popped into Disney Springs, as I hadn’t been there since before the renovation and was so excited to see all the new stores. I was surprised as to how nice everything looked. It was a little bit more modern and less ‘Disney’, which is good sometimes. I stopped by Zara, Anthropologie and MAC, and picked up a few bits from there. I also enjoyed the best Italian style Poutine I have ever had. It did have mozzerella, which is my absolute favorite.


I hope you enjoyed my pictures and thoughts once again. What’s your favorite park at Disney? Have a super great day and do something nice for yourself.
Love,

Lexi

Hello! Today I wanted to share with you some of the new lip kits Kylie Jenner brought out for summer. I am obsessed with her lip kits and I keep buying more and more (and she keeps bringing out more, Kylie pls I’m going broke). The three shades I bought are Ginger, Maliboo, and Kristen and when I saw these three I knew I had to buy them. The matte lip kits are so amazing because the pigmentation of all of them is fantastic and they stay on all day. Also, the lip liner they come with is the best lip liner I have ever used. It’s super smooth and easy to put on and just overall absolutely amazing.

Ginger is a super pretty dark brown/orange shade. Normally, I don’t go for orange lipsticks but I really wanted to try something new. Especially since it’s summer and I wear lipstick pretty much everyday, so I want to mix it up with new colors.

Maliboo is a cool-toned nude. Nude lipsticks are always great to have, even though I do love a good bold lip. If you’re doing a more intense eye look, a nude lip is the way to good. So, I now have this matte nude to go with a cooler-toned makeup look, since I don’t have any cool toned nudes at the moment.


Kristen is a brown/strawberry pink shade. I never really thought pink lipstick would look good on me, but I’ve recently been wearing pink lipsticks a lot and loving them. This was a perfect dark pink shade to add to my newly growing collection of pink lipsticks.


I love these summer shades and can’t wait to get everything else that Kylie is bringing out! I’ll be doing a youtube video about 3 looks with these lipsticks so watch out for it on my youtube channel HttpLexi. What’s your favorite Kylie Cosmetics product? I hope you are all doing well and I’ll see you in the next post!

I think nude lipsticks are perfect for summer, especially if you are going for a warm toned makeup look. I’ve been wearing nudes all the time and I figured I’d show you some of my favorite nude lipsticks! First off I have this matte MAC lipstick in Velvet Teddy. This is a kind of rosey/pink nude. I’ve had this lipstick for a while and I love it, though you do need to keep reapplying it a few times throughout the day. Next is a Kylie lip kit in Exposed. This one is a bit darker which I really like and it has a more orange tone. Third, is the Too Faced Melted Chocolate lipstick in Chocolate Milkshake. This one is a little bit more sheer but has such a great color. It’s a pinkish orange tone and this fits so many different skin tones. Then there is a newer one I have which is the Winky Lux & Marzia Matte Lip Velour in Corallo. This is a peachy pink and perfect for summer. The formula is really creamy but looks kind of matte once it’s on, and applies so well. Last but not least is another Kylie lip kit (because I’m obsessed) in Candy K. This is the one I have been wearing the most this summer. It’s a matte, dark pink nude. Usually when I’m going places, I wear Kylie lip kits because they don’t come off very easily and I don’t have to worry about it very much when I’m eating or drinking.

That’s all! I hope you found a few that you like. Have a super great day.
Love,
Lexi
