Happy Friday! I'm very excited for the week to come to the end and for the weekend to arrive because I'm going to Florida on Tuesday! It's for a work trip but I'm so excited to travel SOMEWHERE. I'm also going to Disneyworld so YAYYYYYY. It's the first time I've been in 10 years so I'm …

Who is sick of book reviews? I'd apologize but I really enjoy writing these posts. I love talking about books and I'm a reader before I'm a writer -- reading has been my safe haven since I was a child and for not one moment has that stopped. I've become addicted to audiobooks because it allows me to &q…

Hi everyone! Just a small little introduction for my latest unboxing v-log. I opened a FabFitFun box, and lots of goodies from Ulta & Sephora. Come back tomorrow for another book review... and probably one of the most effed up books I've ever read in my entire life.

Smith & Cult is back at it! It's not a secret that this pricey nail polish turned makeup brand has some of the best (in my opinion) polishes on the market. The formula is smooth and glides onto the nails easily; the brush is thin but not too thin so an even application is really easy to achieve. The silver cap…

Hello! It's been a hot second this week but boy oh boy was it a week. I don't remember the last time I was this busy. Let me give you a run down of my week: Monday- Sister's 21st birthday so we went out for dinner after work. I came home afterwards and was so full and exhausted I passed out. Tuesday: Super…

It's 9 PM on Monday night and I'm so full from my sister's 21st birthday dinner, and also from Easter sweets at work, and from Easter Sunday dinner. I cannot even think straight and just want to crawl into bed. That being said, I'm too lazy to go look in my blog planner to see what post was supposed to…

There have been like 4 beauty posts in a row so I apologize but I'm just feeling my beauty stuff lately.  I also know this is the 2nd Manicure Monday in a row but you know how I get when a new season starts ... I get manicure crazy. I mentioned last week how excited I am to start with my bright, spring colors and…

Hello and Happy Easter! I just wanted to pop on here and say that last night I started a Youtube channel!!! It's something I've talked about here quite a bit and it's something that I've been wanting to start for a while so I'm really glad I took the plunge. I did a small intro to my channel but yo…

In replacement on the weekly wrap up post, I'll be *trying* to add a regular post weekly. This was originally on my calendar for yesterday but Wednesday kicked my butt so no post Thursday... and here we are! I think a little behind the scenes is always good; blogging is not glamorous, ladies and gentlemen! *PS: I …

This is a book I actually read and it's a nice break between all the thriller novels I've been reviewing. Aside from thriller & mysteries, memoirs are my 2nd favorite genre. I love learning about people and getting insight into how a person thinks and how they came to be who they are today. I find it super…

I don't think I have ever, in 5 years, talked about perfumes on the blog. That is a pure travesty because I really do love perfume and I have ever since I was 11 years old. When I was younger, my favorite scents were Britney Spears Curious & Fantasy, J.Lo 'Glow' and DKNY 'Be Delicious'. The DK…

As we enter Spring, I'm most excited to switch out my nail polish colors. I love deep, dark colors more than anything but once March hits I start to break out my nudes and light pinks. My nail polish collection has grown and grown and I've expanded a bit outside of the Essie bubble but they'll always be my…

Happy Friday! I'm so happy to see the weekend as per usual. It felt like an unusually long week so I'm happy to have some time to myself. We had a sneak peek at Spring this week but it's back to 40 degrees and I'm freezing. I'm starting to get into the swing of preparing for Spring, even buying a n…

Back at it with another thriller book review. This was not so much as thriller as the rest of them and it was a rather quick read.... er listen. The Perfect Girl centers around Zoe, a teenager who lives with her mom & her new stepfamily. Zoe has a secret that her and her mother, Maria, have kept between them for …

As I've mentioned previously, Henri Bendel has become one of my favorite brands. I've always enjoyed mid lane high end brands like Tory Burch and Kate Spade so when I stumbled upon Henri Bendel and realized that the brand was very old and had a great story as well as a lot of heritage I quickly fell in love. Y…

It's April and the year is almost halfway over. Spring is around the corner and as much as I've hated it in the past, I'm a little bit excited for the warm weather and no jackets. I'm excited for iced coffee and kimonos. March was so-so with some blizzards and rain storms. I got out of my funk and I…
