Pumpkin Spice Latte & Sugar Cookie from Starbucks

Fall is officially here for me in Southern California. The cold mornings and with the time changing I find myself craving Pumkin Spice Latte well,anything Pumkin. As you can see the latte must accompany a Pumkin type sidekick. 
When does it feel like fall to you?

Back to School Clothes 101 Hollister Style

Julia (14) entered 9th grade today. Remember High School? I vaguely do at this point of my life-maybe I don't want to remember. It's such a hard time. I can only imagine what it's like today in this high tech fast paced world. 
One thing that stayed the same? Clothes. Well except the prices. I was a jeans and t-shirt kinda girl. Julia, the apple of my eye didn't fall too far from the tree! 
She opted for casual. Real casual. Tom Boy casual. 
Here she is. 
Shoes: Target 
Jeans: Hollister 
Top: Cotton-On 
Hair & Make Up: Julia 

  
 Jansport Back Pack: Tilley's  

Now hopefully her  classes are simple and casual: 
Algebra 
Physics 
Study Hall 
AVID 

Yikes! 
Hopefully she doesn't need help with homework! I am smarter than a 5th grader! Lol

The Deckers: Random Goodies Update

Meet  The Decker's "Ryan & Carly"

Visit them (click here)
The Deckers: Random Goodies Update: Carly described how overcast rainy weather was MADE for her!  Sometimed thinking she could live in London or Seattle.  But then she remembers  how sweet Colorado is ....

Carly's post describes how she can't wait for Autumn! Me either! Love it! I used to always say I was an Autumn by day, Winter by night girl . Not sure why I always said that maybe it had to do with my color season?  I just know when I heard we were in August it gave a skip to my step. The onset of cooler weather.Well, as cool as it can get in San Diego! Fall leaves and cute boots to kick the leaves about.Scarves and little stylish hats adorning our heads. The smell and taste  of cinnamon at the local coffee shop. Autumn is my favorite season! What do you like best about Autumn?

3 Simple Steps to Longer Eye Lashes

Julia ( entering High School in the fall yikes!) was talking about make up for High School.
We are a family of list so,of course,she created her list.

Julia's Make Up List 

1. Face Powder
2. Mascara
3. Brown tone eye shadow
4. Lips Gloss

Sounds reasonable - I guess. Maybe.

She did however  mention how much she loved my eye lash trick so she added Bic lighter and eye lash curler to her list!

Here's the eyelash trick!





Sunny Simple Life: Where is Cozy Little House?

From Elaine @ Sunny Simple Life: Where is Cozy Little House?: Brenda sent me an email and asked me to let everyone know what is happening with her blog. Brenda is working on moving back to Blogger...

Yeah! Glad she will be back! I'm happy I didn't switch over! I almost did! For  years the blogger community raved about Wordpress. Did you make the switch? Any problems? I'm happy just staying home in my cozy end of the blogger world!
