March was a very slow month and I'm very glad about that. There was a lot of snowstorms, a lot of rain, and not much very Spring. However, today, the day before Easter Sunday the sun is shining and I wore a jean jacket for the 1st time this season and I was thrilled. I hate Spring, I hate Summer and I hate everyth…

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 …

September seemed like an awfully long month and I'm happy about that -- I hate when months fly by and you feel like you accomplished nothing. I love when the months are long because I get to relish every day and of course, I want my favorite season and favorite months of the year to go by at a snail's pace. Se…

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 …

We've discussed books , accessories , and now we are onto beauty. Beauty is my number one love, and I think 2016 was the year that beauty really exploded; 2014 & 2015 were warm ups and this year, the beauty industry took it's rightful place as a booming industry. Working in the industry is very exciting be…

I've cut back on beauty buying lately. My shopping has decreased significantly but I just don't feel the need to shop for beauty items as much as I did a few months ago. I haven't stopped completely; there will always be items that come out that catch my eye, that I need to have, and that I count down the …

I'm always on board for a good beauty trend; bold brows, contouring, strobing -- I love them all. One trend I really have fallen head over heels for is matte lips. I blame Kylie Jenner but Ms. Jenner really knew what was she doing. I love the look of matte lips -- they're so glamorous and really make you look …

I always get sad at the beginning of December because my favorite season is on its way out. I feel like once December 26th comes, I have nothing to look forward too. My birthday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas are gone and it's one step closer to Spring. UGH But November was a good month and I think it went at a dece…

I find myself browsing Sephora's website for new items pretty much at least once a day. On one of these benders, I found the latest Sephora Favorites collection -- a brow wardrobe . Sephora is always coming out with these exclusive kits that feature deluxe & full size samples of products. They have one for eye…

When I heard that Birchbox was releasing Mad Men curated boxes for the big premiere of the next seven episodes, I knew I needed it. I have developed a deep love for Mad Men when I watched the entire series for the first two weeks after graduation, back in May 2014. I love Don Draper, Betty is a bad bitch, and Joan is…

Here we are with another beauty post. I have been accumulating so many products, it's becoming an issue and I don't have enough space to store it all. I need to figure something out soon but for now, I'm going to own up to my problem and share it with all of you. I buy a makeup product at least once every …
