Y’all. I’d be lying if I told you the last few weeks have been a walk in the park. Time has been strained, but who’s isn’t? So, today I thought I’d just share with you a few of my recent favorites. I’ve discovered these things over the last few weeks and I’m utterly in love. They’re total fall must haves.

1 | Vampy Lips
Vampy lips are a huge for fall and winter. My favorite vampy lip colors are from ColourPop: Ellarie and LBB. Scared of dark lips? Follow these steps for Vampy Lips for Beginners!
2 | A Versatile Cardigan
Good cardigans can be hard to find, but they are so necessary for fall. I have been eyeballing this cardi for months and months. I finally caved and bought it, and boy am I so excited! It goes with EVERYTHING. I’ve worn it with jeans and a basic tee, a skirt and an adorable button up. The possibilities are endless. Casual or dressy, zipped or unzipped. It’s definitely going in my capsule wardrobe. Check out this post for how to create a killer capsule wardrobe. This cardigan is a fall must have.
3 | Boots!
Can it even BE fall if you don’t have a pair of boots to go along with it? 😉 A pair of boots or booties that can be paired with anything is another fall must have.
Oh, hey there #2 – versatile cardigan! Have I mentioned that cardigans and boots go together like peas and carrots?
4 | A Fun Scarf
I bought this fun Knock-Off Zara Blanket Scarf last fall. It’s not “the real deal”, but who really cares… plus it’s a fraction of what the original Zara blanket scarf costs.
Here are some other fun options:
5 | A Multi-Use Bag
Remember the bag from this post? It’s an amazing example of a multi-use bag. I can stuff my laptop in it, fill it full of clothes, toss a couple of water bottles in, or just add the necessities. There are so. many. uses. This bag, or a similar one, is totally a fall must have.
Linking up with Amanda, Katie, and Miranda.
What are your fall must haves? What have I left off?
I love all of these things, but especially that cardigan! I love how it wraps in the front! Does it fit true to size? I always have trouble with buying jackets online because they are always way too big. Congrats on starting a newsletter! I am so excited mine comes out this afternoon! It is the first one 🙂 Have a great weekend!
The cardigan is my absolute FAVORITE piece in my fall wardrobe (post coming)! I read about it a lot before I ordered because I thought it may run small, and it does. So I’d size up!
i love my knock off scarf more than my real one, to be honest! the real one is huge and a bit ridiculous, and i never reach for it! love the lips girl, i wish i could rock that! i need that cardi, and i really do need a new pair of boots in my life.
I am SO happy with my knock off. I can’t imagine I’d be happier with the real thing, so I’m glad to hear that it’s really that great! 🙂
You absolutely CAN rock those lips, girl friend. It’s all about getting used to seeing yourself with them.
In any other state I totally agree with these! Except per our convo, you need to add shorts, sandals and tanks/tees to list list for Texans 😉 But those scarves are seriously cute and I can’t wait for the four weeks out of the year I’ll be able to wear one!
Hahaha! I’m willing Fall to come. Think it’s working?
I’m with you on the time strains thing. I found myself answering with “Omg so busy” whenever someone asked me how things have been. I’d like to stop. Because being busy isn’t necessarily an awful thing. I do believe I’m treating myself to a blanket scarf this weekend!
Right?! Being busy is a nice feeling, most of the time. It’s just consuming when you don’t have enough time in the day to do all the things you want/need to. Let me know what you think of the blanket scarf! I love mine.
A girl can get through Fall with just a cardi and scarf! Love that knock off Zara one!
Right?! They are quintessential.
This list is great! I have a dark purple longchamp and it is the perfect fall/winter bag. I also just bought a new scarf from Amazon and I am loving it!
Longchamp bags are my favorite “carry all” bags. They work in so many instances.
Yes to all of it! I wait with baited breath every year for the first cool day so I can wear a scarf and boots. That’s my happy place.
I can imagine fall is gorgeous where you are!
I love all of this! I bought my first raspberry lip gloss last night!
Ooo! Yay. Do you love it? What did you get?
I am loving it!!! I got the Milani Ravish Raspberry. I want to go back and grab the Black Cherry lipstick too. I wanted to make sure I was comfortable with the darker colors first though…so I have been easing in to it!
Great picks for Fall!!.. you know how much I love your vampy lips tips!!
Kisses,

Thanks, girlfriend! Vampy lips are so much fun.
I bought a knock blanket scarf too, no need to invest a lot of money in a trendy piece. I love my Longchamp bags and they are perfect for travelling!
Right?! I totally agree. Longchamp bags are so amazing and versatile.
The Zara scarf is way over hyped. My friend has one and saw my Amazon knock off and was kicking herself in the butt. I love my Amazon scarf so much I’ve actually purchased an orange and brown one too. (; I really need some new vampy shades this year. I’ve always been afraid to go outside of anything berry or red. Dang it I want a dark plum! (;
I ordered a new bag today. I’ll let you know if it’s a must have, but I’m excited for it. (;

I’m glad I went the knock-off route. I have been trying to find the vampy shades from Maybelline (color blurs) but they’re always sold out! Bleh.
Let me know about the bag!
Such a good roundup! I still need to bring out my dark lipsticks, and I keep going back and forth on blanket scarves– I love them, but whenever I try them on me they just seem way too huge and overwhelming.
There are TONS of ways to wear them. Look up tutorials online. There are definitely certain ways I feel overwhelmed by the blanket scarf.
Perfect round up! I’d add in an easy hairstyle that doesn’t take much time and fun, spicy recipes!
Yes vampy lips! I’m still getting brave with them; but I love it!
