I think we can all agree that we're all going a little stir crazy staying quarantined at home. Forcing myself to stay inside has given me the push I needed to complete some much needed home improvement projects. As many of you might already know, I love The Home Edit. I'm obsessed with their pantry organization projects.
After my husband got back from stocking up at the grocery, our pantry was a mess. Everything he purchased barely fit in our tiny little apartment pantry. This was my opportunity to do some serious organizational damage. I ordered some bins on target.com, pulled out my label maker and got to work.
I also recommend labeling all of your bins. It makes your products have a home and keeps your pantry organized. I use a Brother label maker. Unfortunately, mine is no longer available, buthere is a newer version of what I have.
Here is what our newly organized pantry looks like. Now it's time to get started on another project. Stay safe! Shop the Post

First impressions are everything, right? Well, I am here to give you my first impression of Pop Sugar's Must Have Box for October. Before today, I have never tried their Must Have Box nor have I seen the contents of previous months. This is my first time receiving this box, as well as trying any of the products in the box. Check out what I received below. The first two items are perfect for the colder months ahead. I personally am not the biggest coffee drinker so I am really excited to try this Dark Drinking Chocolate by My Cup of Cocoa. I'll be able to drink my hot chocolate in my new Rise & Shine Diner Mug by Morning Culture. This is such a cute minimalistic mug plus you can never have too many mugs. We all know that I love trying new beauty products and that couldn't have been more true when I open these three. I have been eyeing the Make Up Eraser at Sephora for weeks now. There is something so curious about completely removing your makeup without any soap and thats just what the Make Up Remover does. I tried eraser the night I received my box because I was so excited. I'm proud to say that it truly works as well as it says. I was also very curious about the Lalicious Brown Sugar Vanilla Shower Oil and Bubble Bath. I have never before tried a shower oil so I was curious if it would still lather as well as shower gel. I'm happy to report that it lathered up to my expectations and it smelled delicious while doing it. Everyone needs an extra eyeliner in their arsenal and I am excited to have the Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen in mine. The tip has a sphere to maintain the shape of your line which is just what I need help with. Let just say my liquid eyeliner gets out of hand somedays. I look forward to trying this one. These last two items were the gifts that I didn't realize I needed. When I opened my box and saw that beautiful Henri Bendel Umbrella, I realized that I have been misssing my umbrella for months. Who knows where it is now? This lightweight umbrella is great to have in your tote for those unexpected Florida showers. I love that it also has a sleeve to keep it from opening or getting damaged while in my bag. Lisa Sugar the founder of PopSugar also included her inspirational memoir. I have not read this book but I look forward to reading it on the plane during my upcoming weekend getaway. It looks like a motivational book filled with career and personal advice. Dark Drinking Chocolate, Henri Bendel Umbrella, Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen, Lalicious Brown Sugar Vanilla Shower Oil and Bubble Bath, Makeup Eraser, Power Your Happy Book, Rise & Shine Diner Mug The total retail value of the items in the box equals $163 and the box is available for only $39.95. I think the price is beyond worthy of the value of the items in the box. I am skeptical for paying $40 and not knowing what exactly you are getting but seeing the value of the October box is over 4 times the price I think it's safe to say you can trust Pop Sugar that you're going to get amazing items. After seeing everything that I received in my October #MustHaveBox, I'm sure that you all are ready to order your very own. To sign up for your very own #MustHaveBox, click here. Pop Sugar gives you the option to purchase a month, three months or six months. Use the code SHOP5 to receive $5 off your first Must Have Box. I hope you all enjoy your upcoming fabuless weekend.

Whether you are a student back at school or you're working full-time, fall gives us an excuse to get reorganized and new school supplies. Shopping for new school supplies was always my favorite part about going back to school. I loved packing my bag before the first day of school and being organized. I thought I would share what to pack in your back to school/work tote.
Lip Balm, Water Bottle, Tote, Pens, Pencil Case, Notebook, Phone Case, Laptop Case,
Planner I have had my Longchamp Large Le Pliage Tote for years now. They are on the pricey side but they are so durable that they are worth the money. They can hold all your books, plus they are water proof to keep all your school supplies safe when you get caught in the rain walking to class. Its always a good idea to throw in a water bottle and some lip balm into your bag for when your stuck in the drafty dry classroom for hours. We all know and love the Tervis Tumbler but have you tried the Tervis Water Bottle? I have this octopus one and I take it everywhere. I always liked having my pens and pencils in a case rather than digging through my bag to maybe or maybe not find one. If you would rather not spend the money on buying a case, just go in your bathroom and grab an old cosmetic bag. They make great pencil cases, plus they are usually much cuter. The biggest question for back to school is which planner should I get this year? There are so many different shapes, sizes and layouts. Do you prefer monthly, weekly or even daily. I prefer to look at my schedule week by week. This year I decided to go back to a Lilly Pulitzer agenda. I used them in college and they never let me down. The last two years, I wanted to be adventurous and tried the Brittany Fuson Paper Planner and the Erin Condren LifePlanner. The Brittany Fuson Planner was so adorable each month but it was just too flimsy to have in my bag everyday. It got pretty beat up by the end of the year. The Erin Condren LifePlaner was amazing. You had the option to design your own planner and layout, but in the end it was just too pricey. Now it looks like your ready to go! What do you like to pack in your tote? Let me know in the comment section below. As always, I hope you have a fabuless day.
Moving into a new home means getting the chance to redecorate and I could not be more excited. There is one decorating accessory that I am truly loving right now and that is coffee table books. There are books for just about everything, including fashion. These books provide inspiration for you and your guests, plus they look super chic.
I have just recently started my coffee table collection. My first book was "Cupcakes and Cashmere at Home" by the lovely blogger, Emily Schuman. She is such a inspiration for myself and all fashion bloggers. Here are a couple other coffee table books that I am loving. Shop Coffee Table Books
Do you have any coffee table books or want to suggest one? Let me know in the comment section below. See you tomorrow!
Today marks a new chapter in my life, I am moving into my very own apartment. Woo. I cannot wait to share this wonderful new adventure with you all. I will see you on Friday after my move in process is complete.
