On My Beauty Wishlist: Romi Apothecary Queen Of The Winter Oil

Image
 Beauty friends, I'm so happy that I can be here with you guys again this Thursday/Friday eve. I hope that all of you have worked hard and I pray that all of you will have a great weekend. The Fall and Winter months are coming sooner than we know, and my skin is not looking forward to it at all. While I was reading an article in the February issue of Elle Magazine where American Skier Mikaela Shiffrin said that she uses the Romi Apothecary Queen Of The Winter Oil during the Winter. This formula was born out of necessity, for skin that has to endure cold and challenging weather conditions in the upper Midwest. Thicker, emollient oils nourish and protect delicate skin from the elements and dry-air conditions without the worry of clogging pores. It is soothing, rich, and scented lightly with beautiful floral jasmine and sensual elemi. Minnesota-grown marshmallow root, rich in mucilage, adds soothing, softening, and moistening properties. Cold-pressed organic fruit seed oils add a high

 Happy Tuesday, my fellow fashion lovers. I hope all of you are doing well and had a great weekend and a great workweek ahead of you.  I've been keeping a deep, dark secret, I've been OBSESSED with the Miranda Frye Lisa Ring. I saw Lisa LisaD1 wearing it in one of her haul videos and I knew this needed to be a blog post because I know that some of you would be interested in this ring and because I'm a good friend and sharing is caring.  The Lisa Ring is an eye-catching statement piece. It's named after influencer Lisa Duncan, and it features a stunning baguette CZ for a classic look. This ring is reasonably priced at $86.00. https://mirandafrye.com/products/lisa-ring-gold?currency=USD&variant=40689287495740&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&stkn=85f69bdf5052&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwae1BhC_ARIsAK4JfrwF0IANE01wW2oYMjKwhe22Bhs3ijh2Y0OxFb6RHVORR2t5-AC-YgEaAjTOEALw_wcB  My fellow fashion lovers, I hope that all of

On My Beauty Wishlist: Celine Zou Zou Eau De Parfume

Image
 Hello to all my fellow beauty lovers on this Thursday/Friday eve. I hope your work week went smoothly and you're ready to enjoy your weekend.  Celine is one of my favorite fashion brands, I love the French cool girl's aesthetically pleasing designs and their clean lines. While on their website, I saw the Zou Zou Eau De Parfume and wanted to know more about it because I didn't see anyone talking about it. Zou Zou is the new perfume by Celine, Zou Zou echos the lively and slender allure sported by the '60s icons. The faces from the movies and literature inspire the eternal Parisienne that is constantly being reinvented by Hedi Slimane. It's an addictive balmy accord with caramel overtones. An ambery composition with the powdery trail that sings the Celine Haute Parfumerie Collection. The notes for the Zou Zou are Benzoin, Tonka Bean, Patchouli, Labadnum, Vanilline, and Musk. This perfume is priced at $280.00. https://www.celine.com/en-us/celine-haute-parfumerie/fragr

My Fashion Obsession: Single Breasted Blazers

Image
  Happy Tuesday to all of my fell fashion lovers, I hope that all of you had a great weekend and let us have a great work week.  I can say that I'm over Summer (Sorry for the girlies who love Summer.) I'm a Fall girl and I make no apologies about this at all. I was watching the Dior Fall/Winter 2024 Ready-To-Wear Collection and reading the August issue of Harper's Bazaar and saw that Single-Breasted Blazers will be a big trend for Fall/Winter 2024. The big reason I absolutely love this trend is that it is less bulky and lighter than its Double-Breasted sister and you can wear this as your coat into the deep Winter.  The Fall/Winter 2024 runways for Akris, Loewe, Max Mara, Ferragamo, Givenchy, Proenza Schouler, Bottega Veneta, and Dior (My personal favorite.) were designed so well and many others did a great job doing this trend as well.    Asos and Boohoo have affordable options for the girlies who want to partake in this trend, but without forking over the designer price t

On My Beauty Wishlist: Byredo Animalique Eau De Parfume

Image
  Well hello again, my fellow beauty friends this Thursday/Friday eve. I'm so happy to be here with all of you again talking about the things in the beauty world that I've been obsessed with lately.   I've loved the brand Byredo for a long time, they have products that are aesthetically pleasing to any girlie and have a minimal vibe in their perfume collection. While I was watching a YouTube video by My Scent Bouquet, she talked about the Byredo Animalique Eau De Parfume and how much she loved it. Animalique plugs into the common element in all humanity: our authentic essence and primal instincts. The feeling of euphoric dancing under disco lights, of biological, illogical attraction, of being carried away by the great sweep of vibration. ​​ The fresh top notes of lemon and bergamot give way to a warm floral heart of mimosa and violet before the fragrance takes its final plunge into the feral atmosphere of suede, amber, and tobacco leaf. A scent in which inhibition shatters

My Summer Obsession: Eyelet

Image
  Hello, my fellow fashion-obsessed friends, and Happy Wednesday to all of you. I've been on a roll with giving you guys extra blog posts to read and I don't feel bad about it.  The one thing that goes well with Summer, is Eyelet. Eyelet is a feminine and classy thing to have in your closet for the Summer. I know that I feel so stylish when I wear an eyelet piece out in public. As I get older and wiser when it comes to my fashion decisions, I appreciate some of the fashions that I considered boring or too old to wear as a teenager who was trying to find her own path in fashion.  I went on some of my favorite websites and I found some of my favorite eyelet fashions:  https://us.boohoo.com/plus-broderie-tie-belt-playsuit/GZZ55147-152-352.html?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwiOy1BhDCARIsADGvQnB0qhtr3T1Yb2kUCg5XLbqcZDwqCXgtC4CDwdJ9YLRT-SGsTnEfB_gaArskEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds https://www.eloquii.com/products/eyelet-flare-mini-dress/302586580.html?glCountry=US&glCurrency=USD&

Well hello fashion lovers, I hope that all of you are doing well and had a fabulous weekend. I know all of you feel that the weekend goes by too fast, me included, but we have a new week to make all the dreams that we have for ourselves come true. I'm in my dainty ring era and don't feel any guilt about this. While I was on the Melinda Marie website over the weekend, I saw the Monroe ring and loved the diamond detail that the ring displayed. This ring will work out so well for my girlies who love the stacked ring trend but without the hassle of putting all those rings on. The Monroe Ring is priced $58.00.  https://www.melindamaria.com/products/monroe-ring-gold?currency=USD&variant=40445785112622&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&stkn=119539d0215c&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=CBI_PLA_Warm_Zombies_PM&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwae1BhC_ARIsAK4JfryYV5IN2u8AIYkbwZo1b8sfHKmwH9aHe8olcz325iNcX46XsG2R

On My Fashion Wishlist: Chanel 2.55

Image
Happy Monday to all of you, I hope that all of you are doing well and had a great weekend. Let's all work hard and prepare to have another great weekend on our hands.  We've all seen the Classic Chanel Flap Bag, which every fashion fan/lover has in their closets or has on their fashion wishlist, including myself. However, the Chanel 2.55 gives a different recognition than its popular sister. In the 1920s, Coco Chanel became tired of having to carry her handbags in her arms and decided to design a handbag that freed up her hands. Inspired by the straps found on soldiers' bags she added thin straps and introduced the resulting design to the market in 1929. After her successful comeback to the fashion industry in 1954, Chanel decided to update her handbag. The resulting design was called 2.55 after the date of creation, February 1955. The lining's burgundy color represents the color of the uniforms at the convent where she grew up. There is a zippered compartment at the in

A Hoodie In Fashion, Groundbreaking

 Happy Friday fashion friends, I hope that your weekend is off to a great start. I wanted to give all of you a extra blog post to read over this weekend simply because I don't have NO CHILL when it comes to fashion, and I love you all so much. When I say the word hoodie, what do you think of. For a lot of people, a hoodie is a staple for us to wear in our lounging times during quarantine, to support our favorite sport teams. But for the Spring/Summer 2024 runways, the hoodie was everywhere. I find that something so simple as a hoodie could be so stylish and practical at the same time and I feel that the fashion world is steering away from the overly extravagant designs and go for a more wearable option.  The runways for Tory Burch, Sandy Liang, JW Anderson, and Dries Van Noten are just a few that followed the trend.  Fashion lovers, I hope that all of you have enjoyed this Friday fashion blog post, I love you all so much, and until next time, Stay Beautiful.

It's so popular at the moment, so I figured that I needed to tell you guys about it, but before I tell you guys about this palette, I wanted to let you about the brand itself. Natasha Denona was born in Croatia and raised in Germany, Natasha inherited a love for both painting and science from her mother, a technical illustrator, and chemist who would often bring her to the lab. A student of dance from a young age, her first experience with makeup artistry happened backstage, where she revealed an intuitive ability to create advanced stage looks for herself and other dancers. After a successful early career as a professional dancer and model, Natasha was soon in high demand in the fashion and beauty i

On My Fashion Wishlist: Bally Plume Moccasin

  Hello again fashion lovers, I am so glad to be back here with you all. I hope all of you have had a great weekend and your workweek is fabulous.  Fall is next month, and I couldn't be happier. I've been missing my sweaters, boots, and cooler weather. While I was reading the Summer issue of Vogue I saw the Bally Plume Moccasins and I thought "This would be the perfect shoe to wear during the Fall and the Winter with a long Black coat. These shoes were first presented at the Bally Spring/Summer 2024 fashion show, the Plume moccasin is Simone Bellotti's interpretation of the boat shoe. A masterpiece of comfort, flexibility, and lightness, it features artisanal Goodyear Reverse construction, where the lining is sewn around the welt inside-out, like a glove, before being stitched to the upper. It also comes in two colors and the price for these beauties is $990.00. https://www.bally.com/en/products/plume-moccasin-in-black-leather-6308629/ Fashion lovers, I love that you a
