These chillier nights are calling for cozy, candle lit, Netflix binging while snuggled up in a bunch of blankets. With that being said, my favorite time of the year to use and buy candles is here. I have collected a couple new candles to last this season and I literally want to eat them all (calm down Natalie). If you know me, then you know that I have an obsession with candles. It's getting better every year but, more and more stores are creating beautiful and deliciously smelling candles. Who doesn't love 'em as much as I do?
To start, a recent purchase from Bath and Body Works, is this Mahogany Teakwood candle. As my mom would describe it, "It smells like man," she says...as I cringe and slowly walk away. Honestly, it does give off a musky, Lumberjack type scent...and I'm not complaining! I would recommend this candle if you like the more fresh and woodsy smells. Also, Bath and Body has come out with these gorgeous marbled candles so, why wouldn't I buy it?!
I had to make an errand to Target about a week ago and I was strolling past all of the clearance sections, as you do, and spotted all of their candles for 50% off. I tried not to get carried away so, after smelling every single fall candle they have, I decided on the Autumn Harvest candle that smells pretty much...of all things autumn. It's crisp and really fresh smelling; it's pretty subtle in terms of how "sicky" or strong the smell is because sometimes fall candles do have a very potent smell.
Received as a gift from my aunt was this Yankee Candle Autumn Pumpkin candle. It is very sweet and really gives off that desired pumpkin scent. One of my yummier candles, in my opinion. It smells like my mom just made homemade pumpkin pie.
Lastly, my friend Ellie bought this small Scentsational Pumpkin Spice, one wick candle for my birthday this year. It smells very sweet and spicy. Probably one of the best fall candles that I have ever owned. It's small, but mighty.
What fall scent have you been obsessing over this month?

Normally, I do a back to school shop but, this year I didn't have time to do any of it so over the past couple months I have been collecting some new pieces for this season. Fall is my favorite time of year to really express my style; it's super easy to think of outfits because you don't have to deal with oppressing heat and sun all the time. Layering pieces and not wearing flip flops everyday is something that I always get excited about for this time of year.
I haven't worn colored pants since the sixth grade but, boy do these blushed AEO Denim X Jeggings look so cute! I know that pink is not normally a color you would wear in the fall but, I think this shade really works. Especially paired with a black and white flannel, it can add a nice touch of color without making you look like an Easter extravaganza. They're so comfortable and were only $20 at American Eagle!
I have always loved the look of booties and chelsea boots, specifically, look great paired with skinny jeans. I wanted a pair that would have a slight heel and were also a different color other than chestnut or black. The AEO D-Ring Western Bootie is quite the bootie! At first, they were a bit snug, probably due to the pointed toe, but I broke them in and they can really dress up any fall look, which I love. They're classic and timeless--a great fall shoe.
I have been obsessed by the look of a cute, woven pom pom hat lately. This one I actually got a while back at H&M is no longer on the website, but I linked one similar anyway. You can feel warm and snug while looking very cute and ready for winter!
Another thing that I found was this huge blanket scarf from the Target dollar section (of course). Whenever I go to Target they always seem to be out and this one happened to be there one day and I was like, "Uhhh why haven't I ever seen this before?!". It was only $7 and it's honestly one of the best scarves I have ever owned. I love the dark greens and blues in it instead of your usual reds and beige colors you seen in fall scarves; perfect for fall and winter, as well.
I have been loving the fall fashion trends lately and am always up for a change! Let me know what types of pieces or trends you guys have been loving this fall down below.

Only two more weeks until Halloween and I am so excited for all things spooky and creepy! If you are having some type of get together, Halloween party, or just want to send a friend a nice treat and don't want to spend a ton on little party favors like these, the Target Dollar Section has everything you need.
The Target Dollar section has been one of my favorite places to buy all things home and their constant variations and restocks of amazing "crap" is changed every season and I always end up spending like $30 on a ton of cute stuff. I recently had to go buy a Halloween themed raffle prize and knew exactly where to get it! Stuff like this shouldn't be something you have to drop your whole wallet on. Sadly, Target does not have any of these things specifically online due to their constant circulation of product but, every Target will most likely carry these things for under $10.
A couple of the first things I saw and thought were really fun were these Grow Capsules that you can put in water and they turn into really cute pumpkins and monsters. I always used to get these at parties when I was younger and at night we would put every one of them in a glass jar and by morning they would all be huge and fully grown creatures!
I also found this cute Jack'o'lantern bucket and these really adorable socks to go with it. I wanted to include some candy (obviously because it's Halloween) and Caramel Apple Pops are the best Halloween sweets in my opinion!
I really loved this huge, fox eraser and thought it went perfectly with the Halloween theme. Also, I used to have memories of my mom buying us these window clings every holiday season and I was obsessed with how squishy and fun they were to decorate with.
Another fun thing to get are little crafts that your guests or friends can do at your party or at home after the party! I thought that this really creative Character Jar Kit was a fun thing to make and decorate a drab dresser or coffee table. Who doesn't want a kitten jar?
The Target Dollar Section has one of the best selections of party favors and gifts and are always under $10! Most of my background in flat flays consist of products from the dollar section; it's incredible how awesome it is to not spend a fortune on things like that.
Have you guys visited the Target dollar section?
