It's almost one of my favorite times of year! Here's a list of some things to get into the spooky spirit ahead of Halloween to decorate your home. Some of these things are great for fall in general, and some I'd even keep as decor year round, but they definitely fit well for Autumn.

If you need ideas for gifts this holiday season (for yourself or someone else), here are my picks of favorites and items I have my eye on this year. I'm in my 20s and believe this list would apply well for post grad young adults who are wanting to upgrade different pieces in their lives!

Sephora's Sale is going on until the 14th and EVERYTHING is on sale! If I were going on a shopping spree, these would all be in my cart. There's some makeup, haircare, and skincare, so you have a variety of options. These products are a mix of what I love along with things that have been on my wish list for a long time now!

I moved to Reston this past fall and fully believe it's a northern Virginia hidden gem! You can access Reston Town Center from the silver line and there are so many good restaurants and fun things to do! I'd love to share a few of my favorites if you ever stop by.

I've been on a health and wellness journey for a while now and have continued to try and find ways to level up my life in ways that make me feel better and live a more healthy lifestyle. These are a few essentials that keep me on track!

Loungewear is my favorite style of clothing for everyday wear, working from home, or just wanting to be comfy. Here are a variety of ideas from amazon inspired by Skims and many of them are available through prime so they'll be delivered in 2 days!

Sometimes you want to have a self care day and feel cleaner than you've ever felt in your entire life. Whether it's a Sunday reset or before a big date night, here are some go to products to level up your shower time.

Ulta is my go to store for all things beauty and I love how they have a range of low and high end makeup products! Here are some of my holy grail items that I use on a daily basis.

My skin has been struggling lately and is really dry. These products are all great additions to your skincare routine, but if you're just getting started all you really need is a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and sunscreen.

My personal DC recs for food in the city! Recs are both high and low end here, so you have a little bit of everything. I've also included options for restaurants participating in restaurant week to include some options for upcoming good eats
