 Happy Tuesday my Fashion Lovers, I hope that all of you lovely people had a great weekend. I got to play in the snow, drink a cappuccino, and just really relax.  I look forward to the day that I'll have a few designer bags in my closet, and Mulberry is one of them. Mulberry has been own of my favorite fashion brands for the longest time, and there is one bag that I want to have in my closet from them that I know that I'll have forever and I can pass this down to my future daughter one day, and that bag is The Bayswater. I remember seeing a stylish woman in London carrying this bag and I thought at first, I didn't love the bag, but as I look more into the Bayswater, I love the size of the bag and the grain leather of the bag.  The Bayswater Bag is their most iconic bag, and its eponymous collection includes new styles inspired by the original.

 Happy Thursday or Friday Eve if you read this beauty blog post every single week. I hope that all of you are doing well and are ready to enjoy your weekend.  I know what many of you lovely people are thinking, ANOTHER EYESHADOW PALETTE AGAIN. The short answer is yes lol, but I promise this one will be good. I feel that Colourpop has a love/hate relationship with us consumers, myself included. But I feel that Colourpop has some good products with a reasonable price point that everyone can afford.  To be quite honest with all of you, I don't go on the Colourpop website all that often, A few days ago, I was on the Colourpop website and I saw a new eyeshadow palette, (New to me maybe not new to you.) and it was the Smoke N Roses palette and I love all of the colors in the palette itself. It’s our sexiest palette yet. Their words, not mine.) Set the room on fire with a soft and sultry mix of rosy and smokey hues to create everything from angelic looks to a rock n’ roll s...

 Happy Tuesday Fashion Lovers, I hope that all of you have enjoyed your long holiday weekend and are having a great start to your workweek. I'm so grateful to be back here with all of you again to share with you all of the things that I've been loving in the Fashion world.  During my Thanksgiving break, I was watching a fashion show by a new designer named Zeena Zaki. Her Spring/Summer 2022 Haute Couture Collection was absolutely stunning, so I went to her website and fell in love with her and her story on how she got into the Haute Couture world. A dreamer and entrepreneur, Zeena Zaki is a self-made fashion designer whose clothes are displayed across the GCC and the Middle East. (She's truly a woman after my own heart.)  Her love for fashion was nurtured in her at a young age as she was a daydreamer. Her immense passion for fashion took flight when she started to design her first pieces for her family and friends. This passion turned into business reality and has continu...

Happy 2022 my beauty lovers, I hope that all of you have enjoyed your holiday season with your loved ones and had a chance to try out some new beauty things that you wanted to try. I've been meaning to put this beauty brand on my blog ever since last year, so to bring in a year of beauty posts, I think that this would be the perfect time to do. Luna Magic was introduced to me while I was on the Wal-Mart website browsing the beauty section (Of Course.) I saw the Uno palette so I went on their website and saw that they had more than just eyeshadow and the story of the company is what I think every young woman can be inspired by.   Luna Magic is an indie beauty & lifestyle brand founded by Afro-Latina & Dominican-American sisters Mabel and Shaira Frías.

Jewelry Brand That You Need To Know About: Kendra Kist Jewelry

Image
 Happy New Year to all of my fashion lovers, I missed you all so much, I hope that all of you have had a great holiday season with all of your friends and family with a stylish wardrobe to match. 2022 is a goal-based year for me, I want to turn my fashion blog into my full-time job and I hope that I can take you guys along for the ride.  I'm from North Carolina and there are so many amazing fashion and jewelry designers. Growing up in the south, I learned that every time that I go somewhere I want to look my absolute best, even if I'm going to the grocery store. My mother always taught me that you are making a first impression on people and you don't even know it.  Jewelry is a finishing piece to any outfit that I put together, I'm not into big, gaudy jewelry. Simple, elegant, and feminine jewelry is what I look for to pull my outfit off. I came across a jewelry line that speaks to my style in so many ways. From growing up in Iowa to studying metal design at East Caroli...

Jewelry Brand That You Need To Know About Farrah B Jewelry

 A new year calls for another blog for 2022, I absolutely love finding new brands to tell you and you can tell your friends all about and I know that you will love them as much as I do.   Over the holiday, I visited my friend's boutique with my best friend and my aunt and I saw this necklace that caught my eye. I look at the necklace and I saw that it was from a brand named Farrah B Jewelry, my best friend saw that I loved the necklace and she brought it for me as a Christmas present. As soon as I put on that necklace, I felt so put together, it was the right length for me, and the chain was comfortable around my neck.  The story behind Farrah B Jewelry is something that I believe in, started in 2009 when Farrah Brothers quit her corporate job to chase her dream.  What started as repurposing vintage jewelry is now a brand sold in stores across the U.S.  Farrah B Jewelry is dedicated to keeping manufacturing in the US mostly handmade in Austin, TX....
