fall in love

michael stars tank, f21 vest, pants, boots, marc jacobs sunglasses, michael kors watch

this past week has been a bit busy and i've gotten a bunch of new things to wear that i can't wait to sport. the other day i scored big at the salvation army and goodwill. most of the clothes i love are those hard to find-never thought-but glad i kept looking-thrift kinds.. mostly bc there's a story behind it which is part the thrill i enjoy in looking for hidden treasures. don't get me wrong i enjoy luxurious and lavish things every now and then but i love to mix it up with inexpensive things.. which speaking of- i also did well at forever 21 where i got these super cute boots and this faux fur vest that's to die for.

anyhow, i've seen a lot of pumpkins lately but none compare to the ones at the petaluma pumpkin patch. it's pretty neat to see a whole field of pumpkins that cause so much traffic each year on 101. and even if they look the same from the ones at the grocery store or at a parking lot on a cement pavement covered with hay, this is definitely an experience to pick your own pumpkin and enjoy the fall fun.

oh and here's one of my favorite pumpkin carvings.. lol

and thank you again everyone for all the love and emails :) enjoy!

xoxo, nikki

when shopping i'm not big on trying things on in the dressing room part bc i'm lazy and would rather buy it and try it on at the leisure of my own bedroom and have the time to decide if i like it or not. that way i can try it on with different things i already have or get another person's opinion. but since i don't frequent downtown as often as i'd like, i devoted a day just for shopping. it's a good idea to wear something that's easy to remove off and on and wear simple basic staple colors that i can easily layer underneath something. and i usually wouldn't recommend heels especially if you're going to be doing a lot of walking, however, these are so comfortable i can walk for days in 'em...

H&M scarf, silence & noise tank, bayo shorts, hk tights, steve madden booties, zara purse, hk black sweater

either i'm getting busier or time is flying faster but tomorrow will be october which means my favorite holiday halloween is just right around the corner.

anyway, i'm not genetically blessed with height so i'm usually in heels and lately these have been my go to pair, part bc i'm always in a rush and haven't had time to play dress up and put things together. i haven't had the chance to swap out the contents of my purse either so i've been using this pouch all the time.. i've rocked this sweater way too many times but i love stripes.. however no matter how often you repeat an outfit never underestimate the power of a scarf- it can automatically transform everything.

oh and my hair is most probably the most asked about question i get on my emails which if you only knew- i hardly wash. i don't even own a comb and i have more makeup brushes for my face. but i do like bedhead hairspray, and yes blondes definitely do have more fun.

a september to remember

american apparel mesh bodysuit, american apparel hot shorts, steve madden booties, timex indiglo watch

here's another cute mesh bodysuit that i scored at american apparel.. it has a very low v neck all the way down to the crotch and since i've been digging that high cut brief look i almost achieved this style with these hot shorts which were perfect since they're almost as high enough as if i wore the suit solo. i tried it on with the black pair but felt the red was too radical that i couldn't resist. I later learned this was also worn by megan fox on the rolling stone magazine.. oh and i attended a fun party at vine last saturday night in santa rosa. dirt nasty performed.. not a huge fan but it was definitely a cool crowd and another super fun night!
