The calm before the storm.... if the storm if a 4 day weekend! The holiday weekend is upon us and for once, I can't wait. I actually have some plans and I'm excited for some serious down time. I say that every week but it doesn't really ever change, does it? The week was interesting... a very slow work wee…

Since I was a little girl I loved being alone. My mom tells me stories of how I would sit in my room for hours, on the floor, playing with my 'people'. She would call out to me "Briana, come sit with Mommy" and as a 2-3 year old girl I'd shout back "I'm playing with my people!" As I…

I am by no means a really religious person. I went to Catholic school my entire life (even college) and do believe in God, Jesus, the whole thing. I don't go to Church every weekend but I pray every day. I would say I'm more spirtual than religious but that's just my definition. I believe that there is a h…

In the past few months, I have not purchased that much makeup. Nothing was catching my eye and I was pretty much set with everything I had. The new collections weren't as exciting to me as past ones so I was sitting a lot of new releases out. That is until I saw NARS was expanding their Orgasm collection. Orgasm i…

Happy Friday! It felt like a very long week yet short at the same time; I'm very happy for the weekend though, as I always am! I'm off from work today, a summer Friday; I laid in bed until 1 PM and then went to the gym. I was feeling very lazy and unmotivated but once I got to the gym, I felt awesome. That'…

I'm back with another handbag review and we're doing a Kate Spade one! I have (had) a lot of Kate Spade bags in my collection and they are by far my favorite. This is a bag that I've had my eye on for so long and finally pulled the plug when it was on sale at the beginning of May. I did 2-day shipping so …

Since I was little I've been a natural worrier. After 9/11 my parents had to get me a dog to keep me occupied and my mind off of the terrorist attack -- that's how big of a worrier I was and still am. That worry has since translated into stress and anxiety; in high school and college I was stressed about every…

I'm someone who loves paper; books, magazines, planners, notebooks, cards, etc. I love holding an actual paper in my hands, I'm constantly printing out things I could read online or writing down lists in one of my 50 notebooks. I've been that way forever and I've documented that many times before. Sch…

This week's wrap-up is a bit late because Thursday I was at work late, and Friday I was at events in Long Island all day for work. Right now, it's raining outside and I have candles lit and my string lights on. I woke up this morning in a fit of rage (don't ask me why), went to the gym, made myself a nice …

Is anyone else excited to see something else besides a thriller being reviewed on the blog? I am and I'm the one writing/reading! I've been out on my audiobook game for a while and whatever was being reviewed over the past few months were books I finished a while ago. I've heavily been into the podcast gam…

Last week I did a post on my summer must-haves in terms of fashion and one of those must haves were graphic tees. I explained how when I was younger I loved graphic tees and how they went out of style but now they're back. Everyone has their own take on graphic tees and they are definitely my favorite article of …

What better day to share my morning routine than on a glorious, hot Monday morning! I've been wanting to share my morning routine for quite a while but never felt it was worth it. It still may not be worth it but I really did want to share it. My weekend routine is much different, obviously, because I'm not go…

I don't know where the week went but here we are! I only blogged twice and I really was intending to have posted every day... I don't know why I've been slacking lately but I apologize. There used to be days when I blogged 7 days a week but that is no longer. Work is on and off busy and I'm just so tir…
If you read the blog regularly, you'll know that I'm not a summer gal. I much prefer fall and winter to the heated months of June-August. Throw April-September in there as well because I'm not a huge fan of those either. However, I'm not dreading this summer as much as I have in the past. Maybe it'…

As a self-diagnosed beauty addict, I am always trying new products. I am constantly searching for the next greatest product, browsing the new arrivals pages on Sephora, Ulta, and Nordstrom, looking to see what my favorite brands have recently put out. If there is a new product on the market, I usually have tried it ev…

Hello Friday! I'm feeling so much better than I was a few days ago; my cold medicine worked (Alka Seltzer Cold & Flu Nighttime) but it has me feeling very groggy so I apologize if this post is all over the place. It was a very long/short week and it's throwing me off. I have a love/hate relationship with 4…

I have the interior design gene and I get it from my mom. She's always decorated our houses with such detail and beauty. I remember when I was little, we'd constantly be in furntiure stores or Home Goods looking for new pieces to add to the home. Sometimes I'd come home from school and the living room and …

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…
