Enter the giveaway here.  Good luck!

Sarah McCaul of SarahRileyRose

I blog about lifestyle and fashion finds for the everyday fashionista. I love to mix patterns and styles and enjoy edgy looks paired with feminine textures. You'll also find me blogging about some of my other passions, such as my music and volunteering endeavors. My motto is that life can be fun, but it's even more fun when you're wearing sequins!

 My fall fave giveaway item: I’m sharing the Ella Fitzgerald Beaded Wrap Bracelet! This Stunning handmade leather triple wrap bracelet is so fabulous as a fall accessory. Tan leather with black, green and gold Japanese Miyuki beads, combined with two rows of rainbow crystals - it doesn't get much more beautiful than this! Pair it with a cold shoulder dress, a killer wide-brimmed hat and some fun booties and you've got yourself a chic and fall-ready look that’s sure to impress.

What I'm contributing to the giveaway are a few of my Fall Favorites by NYX Cosmetics and Essie. When fall comes around I like to amp up my beauty routine in the form of a bold lip and nails. I have included NYX Cosmetics Liquid Suede in the shade Kitten Heels and Intense Butter Gloss in the shade Tres Leches, along with Essie Gel Couture Polish in the shade Model Clicks.

The Perfect Nude Lip

I've been in search of the perfect nude matte lip, so when Bite Beauty x Influenster sent over The Multistick in Cocoa, Blondie, and Macaroon, I was excited to test them out.

Color: To be fair Cocoa is a bit dark for my fair complexion for a lip or contour, however it looks beautiful on eyes as a shadow. Blondie and Macaroon are amazing; they create the perfect nude and pink lip.  Macaroon also looks gorgeous if you dab it on the apples of your cheeks.

Application: The multistick can be used on eyes, lips and cheeks.  I even used all three Multisticks for my nude lip (pictured below).  The best part is that they are super easy to apply.

Results: This is the only semi-matte lip I've used that's not drying.  I've worn it daily on my lips since they arrived!

The Multistick was gifted c/o BiteBeauty and Influenster, it is available at Sephora.

Costa Rican Adventures

Last month we flew to Costa Rica for a destination wedding.  We made the trip extremely relaxing by locking our phones in the hotel room safe.  We completely unplugged our hectic work lives and took in what Costa Rica had to offer.  The wedding was so beautiful.  Waves were crashing, monkeys were howling, drinks were flowing, and life seemed to just slow down in the moment.

Jon and I had made a pact that we would do something adventurous on every trip we take, otherwise we would just drink by the pool the entire time, which btw no complaints here!  Jon and I had never been zip-lining before, so we took the opportunity to see one of the most beautiful places on earth from a bird's eye view.  I have to admit, that I almost chickened out as Jon and I watched scary vacation disaster youtube videos prior to our arrival.  It ended up being so much fun and wasn't scary at all.  Have you gone before?  If not, would you try it?

Here are some of my favorite moments from Costa Rica.
