Top Gun

Hey everyone, and Happy October! This is by far my favorite month besides December because I love fall, Halloween, and my birthday (tehe!)  Anyways, I am back to my blog. Sorry for being MIA for the past couple of days.  Adventuring to New York and college can take a lot of time out of you.  I'll have a photo diary of my wonderful weekend in New York sometime next week.  I apologize in advance for only being able to provide iPhone photographs (we forgot the camera!)  

Obviously in New York, I did some fabulous quick shopping.  For today's post, I am featuring two of my great finds for a Top Gun inspired style!  First, my sweet boyfriend's mother bought me this awesome Urban Outfitters military-inspired jacket for an early birthday present.  This is a huge trend for fall! At first, I had been looking for a hunter green one (which they do have), but in honor of being a blonde and Will's dream to be in the Air Force, I settled on navy blue.  I also picked up this adorable polka dotted Forever 21 sweatshirt.  I got it a size bigger because I like to feel engulfed but not in a way that makes me look wide.  I was inspired by Seventeen Magazine to try the idea of just buttoning the top button only and let the sweatshirt peek through.  Great suggestion 17!  I just paired this with, no surprise here, a light pair of jeggings and some nude heels.  Once again, my Kate Spade look-alike purse makes it appearance.  You would not believe how many times I was asked in New York if it was Kate Spade's.  The reaction to hear it was Francesca's was priceless.  But hey, with this look, I am ready to go fly my own fighter jet (yeah right, tehe!)

Also, as it being the beginning of October, I made a pledge that for the entire month of October I will be make up free.  1 Peter 3:3-4 says, "It is not fancy hair, gold jewelry, or fine clothes that should make you beautiful.  No, your beauty should come from within you- the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit.  This beauty will never disappear, and it is worth very much to God."  As a girl, I hide behind my make up, and let it be my wall.  I am pledging to find my confidence without having to hide my face.  So that I may find the beauty that is worth everything to God.
