Things I'm Loving

1. Get Weird by Little Mix

Most of my dramatic Snapchats that include me lip syncing to music have been of Little Mix's new album. I cannot and will not go a week without mentioning these four girls. I won't do it! I love them! I want to be them! God, these girls, I swear, they just get better and better and better and eventually I might just explode from all of my love for them. They knocked it out of the park with their third album Get Weird. It has tracks that make me want to cry, and dance, and just make me feel like a cool confident lady in charge. Buy the album! Stream the album! Tell your friends to get it! You will not regret it one bit.

To listen to: THE WHOLE THING

2. Target Moto Jacket

I can't remember the last time that I bought myself a jacket that wasn't a long, wool coat. I think it might've been a Northface jacket my freshmen year of high school and I would genuinely just not like to talk about it. What a horrible time fashion wise in my life. I still wore it through freshmen year of college too. I made some pretty heinous life choices, didn't I...

I digress, I don't buy normal jackets. I nearly bought a denim aviator style jacket from Topshop in Nordstrom last year but the sleeves were a bit snug and if I wanted to wear it with a sweater, I would be SOL. So I passed on it and decided I would solely rely on my winter jackets to get me through. However, it's just too warm to do that! But it's also too cold to not wear anything at all. I was going through these wardrobe dilemmas where I was more inclined to layer and layer just to keep myself warm outside and then I would sweat bullets by the time I got into the campus buildings.

So I caved. I caved and I bought the jacket I was eyeing at Target about a month ago because it was on sale and adorable. I love it so much. I didn't think I would love it as much as I do because I am stubborn and don't like to admit defeat to mother nature. BUT YOU WIN MOTHER NATURE! And so do I because I feel like a little cutie when I walk around in it.

3. Trader Joe's

I was looking at my list of things I was loving this week and I saw like, three Trader Joe's products on here, so I figured I would just condense everything under this one umbrella because I genuinely have been loving the store. I used to do all of my grocery shopping at Target and Aldi, depending on what time of day I went. Directly across from where I work, there's a Trader Joe's and it has just become my Saturday ritual to go after work and do most of my shopping there. The prices are good, the food is great, and it is just so convenient. My favorites? Obviously the Cookie Butter (and the Cookie Butter cheesecake), their macaroni and cheese, and their peanut butter cups. They also have some incredible apples and their pre-marinated pesto chicken is to die for.

4. Leaves Candle

Yup, I'm going the basic route and declaring this as one of my favorites for the week. I finally started burning this more liberally this week just because the candle is so strong and there is a lot of ground to cover in this apartment scent wise. This is just a classic, crisp fall scent and if you don't like the smell of it then I probably don't like you.

I wish I was joking.
