October is in full swing, and I am loving the fall season trends right now, especially in skin care, accessories, makeup, and scents. Here are 5 of my favorite October items that I can’t live without.
Chandler’s October Favorites
- Vegan Leather Wrap Choker Necklace (link)
- Herbivore Botanicals Jasmine Body Oil (link)
- Fall lip colors
- ROAM Candle
- Numi Earl Grey Tea
- Wrap Choker Necklace
I am absolutely adoring this trend of wrap necklaces. It’s the best of both worlds! You get a layered choker on top, and a simple “necklace”, all in one! Plus, they have an attitude about them that can transform a simple shirt into an edgy look. You’ll be seeing me in a lot of these season.
I sprung for this vegan leather choker from Urban outfitters (ya girl just got paid), though plenty of low cost options exist as well. I suspect this accessory will be the “defining” style staple of Fall 2016.
2. Body Oils
I have practically switched over all of my skincare products to oil-based ones. Oil-based moisturizers seem to work better for me than thick creams, plus I love the way many of them smell. Two of my favorites are:
- Herbivore Botanicals Jasmine Body Oil (link)
- Nourish Organics Argan Face Serum
Can I just say for a second how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE the smell of Jasmine? The body oil has a perfectly light consistency and the BEST floral scent. I would hoard this stuff if I could. As a body moisturizer it’s great- not to heavy, absorbs into skin, and not greasy at all.
I swear by this Argan Face Serum, which is blended with apricot and rosehip extracts. I apply religiously after washing my face before bed.
3. Fall Lip Colors
Let me just say it, I am a sucker for Fall Lip Colors. The rusty roses, the reddish mauves, and bold reds- I’m all over it. I find these 3 colors especially pair well with the Fall color palette (including leather, of course!)
- Mac, “Salon Rouge”
- Rimmel, “Auburn Breeze” 740
- Revlon, “Rose Velvet”, 130
4. Candles
Candles. Oh candles. I never realized how quickly I could become obsessed with you. After a long day at work I love nothing more than to come home, light a Candle, make myself a cup of tea, and relax. Well-scented candles can change the whole atmosphere of a room, and put plainly, smell damn amazing.
I am really loving the ROAM Candles (available at Anthropologie: link) and their unique city-themed scents. My first one is San Francisco, and I am OBSESSED with how it smells. Plus it is long lasting with a 45 hour burn time! I plan on collecting them all.
5. Numi Earl Grey Tea
As a brand, I love Numi tea. They have quality organic offerings of all of your favorites, and their Earl Grey Tea is especially great for October. There’s nothing better than a waming cup of tea on a brisk morning. I actually used my last bag of it for this photo, so I’m due for more! This brand can usually be found at your local grocery store- try some if you get the chance! It is divine.
Well, that’s all I have in store for you today. Those were some of my October Favorites- items perfect for your Fall lifestyle goals. Happy tea-drinking and sweater wearing, everyone!
Thanks for reading!
