Lately the weather in California has been so wacky I am not sure if I should be wearing shorts or putting pants on. While last night we got the first taste of chilly, ready for Fall weather I must say I am excited to break out the dark lips and jewel toned eyes. Besides hello Pumpkin Spiced Lattes {save the date for August 25} and all things pumpkin. Which then turns into Halloween costumes and Thanksgiving and of course, my birthday… just saying…
But anyways- seriously August you have been breezing by- LITERALLY! And I am sad to say that summer is almost coming to a close real soon. There is still so much I want to do before its time to break out the rain coats and prepare for the cold. But with the daily dose of life in the way, sometimes its hard to accomplish everything. By the way, this weekend you will find me being a lazy bum, and of course helping nurse my sweet little Khloe back to 4 legged health- thank you all for the well wishes, she is doing pretty good post hip-surgery.

Anyhow, to give your Happy Hump day a slight slap in the a** before summer ends, here are some of my favorite reads this week…
- I am in dire need of a new day cream, like I am a hole in the head- however this Boots No.7 Beautiful Skin Day Cream that Laura showcases I think I totally need. Do I spy a potential replacement to my favorite CHANEL Hydra Beauty Cream?? Hmmmmm…. My checkbook sure hopes so.
- I love to mix this up in my makeup stash, but this post by Angela has me lusting for these MAJOR and I mean MAJORILY amazing drugstore beauty buys.
- Since Khloe has been a bit of a healing baby thanks to her hip surgery, I have been waking up feeling less than refreshed. This article seriously ROCKS with its 10 ways to wake up refreshed.

YES to Pumpkin Spice Latte – last year it finally made it’s way to The Netherlands and this year I am spending a week in NYC during September so… I know my favorite drink already :D!
Christine C. says
Oh man. The Pumpkin Spice Latte. It’s so, so good!! Oh and that Boots No. 7 Day Cream is really good! I used it for a while and also a night cream and fell instantly in love with that line when they first started making their way over here. Their Gentle Soothing Toner is another must-have for me. I once bought ten bottles because I was scared they were going to stop making. True Story! Thanks for featuring my LUSH Review!! That Bath Bomb is incredible!

August 25th is much to early for pumpkin spice anything. The weather is all over the place in Washington as well. It’s been going back and forth between really hot and stormy and cold… sometimes all in one day. Not sure if I am ready for fall :/
