Liz On Top of the World






Hi guys! How were your weekends? Mine was soooo good! If you follow me on Instagram than you'll already know that my weekend rocked because of General Conference. For those of you who don't know what General Conference is it's a semiannual meeting of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, held every April and October during which we have the chance to hear the words of the living prophets! It really is so inspiring, uplifting, and comforting. I've never finished a session not having questions answered, fears quieted, and hurt feelings assuaged. If you're in need of any of these things as well, I invite you to not hesitate to stop by lds.org to seek the balm of the words from living prophets. I promise you, you will find comfort! The talks that stood out the most to me were Elder Oaks', Elder Klebingat's, Elder Holland's, and Elder Bednard's! Anyway, my spirit has been replenished and strengthened and I feel SO ready for this week! My spirit is pumped! Also, there's something to be said about spending an entire day in one's house completely make-up free, with sweats on, and a messy top knot. It pretty much rocks.

Guys, I really hope this doesn't sound cocky or anything, but I'm DYING over these photos! Not because of how I look or anything vain like that, but because of the COLORS, the COMPOSITION, the LIGHTING, my gosh! I got to meet up with the stupendous Raquel after General Conference on Saturday and snap these and I'm seriously blown away by how talented she is! Not to mention how incredibly friendly and fun she is! I love being able to get to know and work with fellow Latinas! It really is incredible how technology can bring people together. This year alone I've been able to meet and befriend so many amazing/talented people just through instagram! Sounds crazy, right?! Anyway, one of my favorite things about Fall is mixing and matching traditionally Summer pieces with Fall pieces like pairing a maxi skirt with a sweater! It is seriously one of my favorite things to do. It lets me lengthen the life of some the pieces in my wardrobe and keeps things feeling like they're new! Another one of my favorite things about Fall is wearing booties! Seriously, they're everything. There are so many different kinds of booties in terms of heel or no heel, color, cut, etc. The possibilities are endless! I picked up these nude ones at Aldo's (they were on clearance for $30!) and I've pretty much been wearing them non-stop. They go with everything and the chunky heel keeps them comfortable and practical! If you're in the market for a nude bootie (which, you should be;) I highly recommend these babies! They are unfortunately sold out, though, but I've linked the Target option below that look almost identical!

Much love!
