As we get closer and closer to the end of August, school and Fall are definitely on the brain. On this new installment of Sunday Afternoon Tea, I'm going over Autumn makeup, back to school clothes, some new desk accessories for a mommy like myself, a crock pot jewel to get Fall started the lazy right way, and of course backpack and lunch bag tips.
Hello, Fall is right around the corner!! Do you know what this means? A shift in my makeup's color pallet.
Hip Hip Hooray for darker colors!!!! I can't wait to put on a deep red lip and some sultry eyes. And, do you know what I love more than Fall makeup? Fall makeup Youtube tutorials. Here are 8 Fall Makeup Tutorials for Black Women from Coloures.

Along with Fall makeup, comes back to school clothes. I love the idea of back to school shopping. But, if you walk into a store ill-prepared, you risk walking out with items that are in-cohesive, and will ultimately cost you more when you have to return to purchase more. This is why I love studying the options from Cardigan Empire. Their guide will have your son looking great every single day, with a few simple pieces.
I don't know if it's the school season, but there's just something about school supplies. I would love some new accessories and bobbles for my desk. Last week I mentioned our family command center, but, what about my work space? Cue in Aerin Lauder's Office Space inspiration by Danielle Marie. I love gold, black, and white (with a hint of peach or blush) to make my desk more inviting.
Another one of my favorite parts of Fall happens to be the fact that it is indeed CROCK-POT SEASON!! Whoot! No need to slave over the stove in the afternoon to prepare dinner for you doting family. Nope! Simply throw a few ingredients in this nifty little magic box, and BOOM SHAKALAKA! A healthy meal for you and yours. Here's a recipe, Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken and Veggies, I've located on Damn Delicious. Please excuse my french.
What's the number one thing you can't forget when going back to school? A back pack!!! I'm a little worried that my little man may lose his head let along his lunch box. I can see it now,
"Tre, where's your lunch box?"
"Um... I don't know."
"What do you mean 'I don't know'?...."
Boom. $30 down the toilet. Thank goodness Cool Mom Picks has done the research for us and found Skip Hop Forget Me Not backpack and lunch bag sets. Phew. Thanks a bunch. Oh.. And their super cute!
Speaking of packing lunches, this is a rather new event for me. I've packed snack for pre-school. But that was different. It was only half day class, and I knew he would eat before or after that three hour gap if he hadn't touched his snack. But, in this case, he's going a whole 7 hours without eating if we don't get this meal down-pat. So, I've found this packing printable to help out with the process from While He Was Napping
