I say it every year but I hate/despise New Year's Eve. I think it's overrated and an excuse to get drunk and I just can't be bothered with it. This year I actually had plans with my friends but then woke up this morning with the worst cold ever so I'm staying local with a few friends. Aside from the ac…

Beauty and books are the two things I religiously review here so it was easy to put them in their own category for 'best of 2017'. This post is all about my ultimate favorites of the year... the items I couldn't live without and just loved to the moon and back. These are the items that made 2017 a standout…

When thinking about what categories I wanted to include for Best of 2017, beauty was a no-brainer... I mean, I do classify myself as a beauty blogger most of the time. This was the year that I back peddled on a lot of beauty purchases and really didn't spend as much as I usually do. I was grateful for that because…

Last year was the year of audiobooks and that continues this year. I listened to more books than I read and I'm ok with that because it allows me to 'read' more than ever before. I can't read in a moving vehicle so this allows me to occupy my time and read as much as possible. I read and listened to a …

I hope you had a wonderful holiday with your loved ones -- I sure did! It was a wild few days and I am for sure exhausted. I napped the past few days for hours at a time and I think I may be getting sick... this isn't a surprise because I did way too much and I always get sick this time of year. It doesn't hel…

This is it! We're two days before Christmas (I'm Italian so our real Christmas celebration is on Christmas Eve) and I cannot wait. I'm off from work and in the true spirit of the season. I started baking last night, I have a Christmas party with my friends tonight, I still have gifts to wrap and tomorrow i…

So I do this post every year and I figured it was time to take a little break from all the blogmas stuff, even though I really am enjoying that. I try to do this post every season because as much as I love the products I recommend, I love to change things up. I get bored very easily so once I finish something, I'…

I was never the hat, glove, scarf kind of girl growing up. I didn't like them and felt they were too bothersome. Now that I'm older and realize the importance of being warm while commuting to and from work, I cannot get enough of these items. When I realized that they were extra accessories that I could make f…

Whenever the cold weather hits, I immediately reach for all my dark lipsticks. There is just something about the cold weather, the holiday season, and the chill in the air that makes me want to wear a vampy lip -- even more so than the fall. Just give me all the plums, purples, reds, berries! I think I speak for most …

It's been a while since I've done a Manicure Monday but I got a few new polishes over the past few weeks and I wanted to share one of them. You'd think that the week before Christmas I'd be rocking red nails and I may change it up this week, but last week it was all about OPI's Iceland Collection. …

Boy, what a week! A lot happened and I'm happy to say hello to Friday, the weekend, and almost 1 week until Christmas! I so need a vacation so I can't wait to lay up on my couch for almost two weeks. Even though the week was hard, I think the blog content was very festive & fun. I really enjoyed writing it…

This can be the brunch lover or the Champagne lover because I am both and as far as I'm concerned, brunch & champs go hand in hand. My drink of choice is now a mimosa and I can always go for a glass of Champagne whether it's morning, noon, or night. I think the reason I love brunch so much is that I like d…

It's no secret that I love the winter and I love winter clothes. I've been blissfully happy that it's been so cold and I can wear my heavy winter coats. As I write this, it's snowing outside and I can't wait to wear a hat and gloves tomorrow. The thing I love most about winter clothes is all the fu…

I swore I wasn't going to do a gift guide this year but then I was inspired by my own imagination and decided I'd do a few, based on a few different personalities that I think are fun. Now, these could be gifts for you, or for anyone else but they're definitely gifts for someone who loves to plan; gifts fo…

Another week is over, the first full week of December and we're one day closer to Christmas. Since I hit my twenties, I feel like Christmas has never felt like Christmas but I make the most out of it every year. I thought this year would feel different because I was REALLY looking forward to it, but I am feeling t…

With the entire blogosphere in the blogmas/vlogmas spirit, I figured I'd try to join in as much as I can. Most of my content this month will be Christmas & winter related so I figured I could name it blogmas and just do as much as possible. I named this day 2 because I went and changed my Hot Drink Station pos…

I've noticed one thing this winter/holiday season and that is that teddy bear, fuzzy coats are having a huge moment. I for one, am all for this trend because I think these coats look very chic and fashionable but not over the top. Anyone can pull off one of these coats and to me, they dress up any outfit. You can …

Around the holidays, my friends & I always get together for fun little parties, whether they're lowkey Friday nights or a more …

Monthly Muse: February 2016 Favorites
We had an extra day in February which means there is an extra day for loving some stuff! I started out the month with a no buy and I lasted 3 weeks, a lot longer than I expected, but then I had to buy dresses for some parties coming up, I bought the new Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly palette, and it just snowball…
