Five on Friday: Fall Favorites

I love fall. Since this is officially the first week of fall, here are some of my favorite fall things!

Fall Candles!

I love all of these delicious scents. They are so comforting and make our apartment feel so much more like fall. I need to stock up during the next sale at Bath and Body Works! 

Football! 

Whether it's Friday night games at school, Saturdays visiting our college, or Sundays watching NFL on the couch, football is a big thing this season. I can watch it for hours and I love the time with my husband enjoying it. We already headed back to college (about 5 hours away) for one game and we are going back for homecoming in October. I can't wait!

Booties!

I finally bought a pair of booties and I am kinda obsessed with them. I always said I could never wear them, well guess what, I guess I can. 

Trees!

After moving to the west coast I always felt a little jipped when it came to fall because we have so many evergreens and not the beautiful deciduous trees, but I am starting to find the beauty in it. We have a few deciduous trees and I appreciate them and their beautiful colors even more. 

Pumpkin Goodies!

I love pumpkin muffins and cookies which are perfect for fall. I haven't baked any yet, but maybe this weekend I will whip up my first batch. :) 

This sums it up! 

Have a great weekend everybody!

Five on Friday:

I am trying really hard to not spend money since I'm trying to save for a wedding and honeymoon this summer. I tried to not spend money this month but since today is payday and my birthday is coming up, here are five things I wish I could buy...or receive this month. 

Yoga Pants

The compression capris from Old Navy are my fav! 

Bathing Suit

I want a simple white top to wear with two new bottoms I got on clearance in the fall. 

Tennis Shoes

Dress Pants

As I start to lose weight my dress pants don't fit well anymore and i find myself wearing jeans to school more often. Just because the year is (slowly) ending I don't want to slack off in looking professional. 

A Vacation

I would love some sunshine and time off right now. I'm not sure what it is about this time of the year but even with 3 day weekends and Christmas break just a month ago I am really dragging. I'm dreaming of Disney. 

Linking up!

Happy Friday! :) 

School Clothes

Each year at the beginning of the school year I can't help but want a completely new wardrobe. My school is super casual, there are teachers who wear jeans every day, but I try to dress up a little since I'm young and I like looking more professional. By the end of last year I was so tired of all of my clothes and I want all new clothes, too bad my bank account doesn't agree. 

Here are some of the things I've been looking at and am hoping to get this year:

Some new skinny jeans. These are a necessity && I like the dark washes the best. 

Flowy chiffon tops are my go-to. I have them in so many colors and I love that they are super comfy and I can wear them even when I'm not feeling my best about my body. 

My classroom is like an ice box so I almost always have to wear a cardigan. I like the longer length of this one and that green color is one of my favorites. I wear so much black and grey that I really need to add some color into my life. 

I wear ballet flats almost every day and a lot of my old ones are pretty worn out so some new ones would be a great addition to my wardrobe. I like having ones with some pattern or a little bling. It's a fun way to add a little something to my outfit. 

New boots! I would be happy with like three new pairs of boots but I know I will probably end up with one or two. I love these with skinny jeans or with leggings and a cute dress. They make a comfy outfit look so much better. 

Those are the things on my wishlist! What clothes are you hoping to get for fall? 

All of these looks are from Old Navy, one of my favorite stores and an easy place to find so many cute teacher clothes in my budget! 

Teacher Talk : Teacher Outfits

I'm linking up with Nicole and Jamie for my second Teaching Tuesday post!

One of the things that I love about teaching is that I get to dress up every day! I look forward to my fridays and jeans, don't get me wrong, but I do enjoy the nicer clothes during the week. Here is a sneak peek of some of my favorite teaching items.

I love sheer shirts and button ups, and slacks every day except fridays. My classroom is freezing so I usually wear a cardigan or at least have one nearby for when I'm chilly. I have them in almost every color, it's an addiction. I am also totally a ballet flats kind-of-girl. :] I am on the tall side so I have never tried wearing heels to school but I imagine that they would make me feel like a giant. My lanyard is practically an accessory since I have to wear it every day so I love that I have this awesome bejeweled one! I am not the best at accessorizing so this does it for me.

I like to think that I am fashionable but really, I grab a pair of dress pants and a top && call it a day!

I hope you all had a great day, happy teaching tuesday!
