1- Puffer Jackets: I’ve never been into puffy winter coats, but these slimmer fitting ‘puffer jackets’ have been on the scene for the past few Winters- and I’m finally getting on board! You can find these almost everywhere; Abercrombie & Fitch, Gap, and Express have a nice selection. But I’m in love with this cream, or ‘natural’ as they call it, J.Crew Quilted Puffer Jacket. This style jacket can tend to look casual but the quilting and cream coloring with gold accents make it look a little more luxe.

2- Lucy Hale, Road Between album: I love such a wide array of music. I’m typically a pop, rock, alternative kind-of-gal, but lately I’ve been dabbling in pop country. Lucy Hale recently dropped her first album, Road Between, and saying I’m obsessed is an understatement. She is insanely talented and her album is fabulous. It has a nice mix of catchy, meaningful, and life-lesson tunes. My favorite songs: That’s What I Call Crazy, Lie a Little Better, Kiss Me, and Nervous Girls. Road Between, Lucy Hale.

3- Bowler Hats: Often seen in the media and on celebs, I consider the bowler hat to be the ultimate ‘cool girl’ hat. It became Demi Lovato’s signature look and recently, Taylor Swift has even been rocking one. It has an alternative look to it that I’m loving! Would I wear it? I’m still deciding if I can pull it off! Here’s an affordable one- Amanda Ribbon Band Bowler Hat from Boohoo.

4- Red Band Society: I’m a big TV-buff and I always look forward to checking out the new Fall premieres to see if I can discover a new show to add to my DVR line-up. This year, I noticed the big networks have uploaded the new premiere pilot episodes to their websites for early viewing. I watched Red Band Society and I’m hooked! Starring Octavia Spencer alongside many new talents, Red Band Society is a unique coming-of-age show about a group of young teens that are living in a hospital for a variety of reasons- cancer, eating disorders, and heart conditions. It looks like they took down the online pilot, but be sure to check out the TV premiere on Wednesday, September 17th- Red Band Society on Fox.

5- Burgundy Loafers: Burgundy appears to be one of the hottest shades of the season. It’s everywhere and I’m loving it! I just got these amazing Merona Burgundy Tuxedo Loafers from Target. At first I tried to dissuade myself from this impulse-buy, saying ‘what would I wear it with.’ Good thing I went with my gut on this one because I’ve literally been rocking these daily! What do they ‘go’ with? Try everything!
