On My Beauty Wishlist: Cheekbone Beauty Revive Hydrating Lip Balm.

Image
Hello, beauty lovers! Wishing everyone a fantastic Friday and hoping you’re ready to enjoy the snowy weekend ahead. Cheekbone Beauty is an Indigenous-owned beauty brand I discovered while reading an issue of Allure Magazine. Browsing their website, I came across the Revive Hydrating Lip Balm and fell in love with how sheer it is—you can wear it with lip liner or on its own. And because I’m such a great friend, I just had to share this gem with you all. The Revive Hydrating Lip Balm is perfect for those who aren’t big on lip products but still want their lips to look and feel great. It combines the comfort of a balm, the nourishment of an oil, and a soft, flattering tint that enhances your natural lips without the mess, shine, or boldness of lipstick or gloss. Available in three shades, it’s priced at $24.00. https://www.cheekbonebeauty.com/products/revive-hydrating-lip-balm?utm_source=email&utm_medium=campaign&_kx=--n36F3zDH8luH_fhifQ2Q-kbrGv_xfHl2bYnlxU6kbK98GMRr_0wsqlMEEPhA6T...

On My Fashion Wishlist: Givenchy Snatch Bag.

Image
Greetings, fellow fashion enthusiasts! I hope everyone is doing well, stayed safe during the ice storm, and is enjoying a great start to the week. The Givenchy Snatch bag has become my latest handbag obsession ever since I first saw it in an email, and I just had to share it. Unfortunately, it’s already sold out on their website. The Snatch is a study in intimacy—a sensual piece that blends seamlessly into Sarah Burton’s ready-to-wear aesthetic: sculptural, feminine, and molded to the body. Its lines mirror the cinch of a jacket, the curve of a waist, the shape of a bra. The soft leather carries a subtle tension, as the bag pulls, cinches, and embraces. Made from soft calf-grain leather with a naturally tumbled finish, the exterior blends durability with an easy, fluid look. Inside, a contrasting nappa lining shows off an inside-out design, while a pop of colour from the lunetta detail appears when unzipped. An organic metal chain secures to angular zipper pullers, and small metal feet...

On My Beauty Wishlist: Hermes Barenia Eau De Parfum.

Image
Hello again, beauty lovers! Hope you’ve all been doing well, had an amazing week, and are ready for whatever the weekend brings. I feel like the Hermes Barenia Eau De Parfum doesn’t get nearly enough attention in beauty spaces. A few months ago, I was flipping through a magazine and came across a sample of it. The moment I smelled it, I knew I wanted to share my excitement and add it to my collection. Perfumer Christine Nagel has crafted her first chypre fragrance for Hermès, a sensual scent with woody notes and unforgettable elegance. Barénia is a skin perfume that captures both strength and softness, embodying the many facets of an instinctive, captivating woman with a free spirit. Staying true to the classic chypre structure, Barénia eau de parfum blends butterfly lily with the delicate miracle berry, wrapped in oakwood and rich patchouli. Designed by Philippe Mouquet and inspired by the Collier de Chien bracelet, the bottle combines the boldness of domed pyramid studs with smooth e...

Fashion enthusiasts, I hope you’re all doing great, had a fantastic weekend, and that your work week is off to an amazing start!   I came across the shoe brand Jude in an issue of Harper's Bazaar Magazine and the September 2025 issue of Elle Magazine. I absolutely love the stylish, minimalist vibe of their shoes, so I just had to share this brand with you all—maybe you'll become as obsessed with it as I am. JUDE, founded in 2024 by Jurgita Dileviciute and Denitsa Bumbarova, combines their rich expertise in designing footwear and accessories. Their style is a blend of beauty, modern minimalism, and sleek sensuality, offering designs that are subtle, wearable, and feature unexpected twists. The silhouettes are crafted through creative use of proportions and custom-made elements. Every shoe is made in Portugal using top-quality Italian and French leathers.

Well, hello again to all my favorite fashion friends this Monday. I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend and feeling ready to take on the week ahead. In honor of MLK Day, I wanted to talk about a Black-owned business that I fell in love with the moment I saw their bags, and that brand is Brandon Blackwood. I love how his bags make a statement while still being simple, and if you read my Christmas wishlist from last year, you know the Jemma Bag is on it (hopefully, it won’t sell out before I can buy one for myself). While browsing the website, I came across the Jada Bag and instantly knew it belonged on my ever-growing fashion wishlist. It’s a seasonal showstopper with a sculptural silhouette, crafted in Tan Cracked Leather that pairs its unique shape with a spacious interior perfect for makeup, daily essentials, and everything needed from day to night. Finished with polished gold hardware and dual shoulder straps, it adds a refined yet playful touch to any outfit. The price tag? ...

Oak Essentials has really been impressing me with their products, and I love that they offer options suitable for sensitive skin.

Fashion lovers, it’s such a joy to be back with you all. I’m excited to share the latest fashion trends, designers, brands, and handbags I’m currently obsessed with. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year—let’s stay stylish together. Christopher Esber is such an underrated fashion designer, and I’m not sure why. I was flipping through an issue of Harper’s Bazaar when I came across the Blaze Heel, and the moment I saw them, I knew they’d be perfect for Spring/Summer. Being the good fashion friend that I am, I had to share them so you might consider adding them to your collection. After graduating from Sydney’s Fashion Design Studio in 2008 with a collection that caught the industry’s attention, Australian designer Christopher Esber launched his namesake brand in 2010. Known for blending sharp, structured shapes with soft, fluid draping, Esber challenges convention with designs shaped by his tailoring background, clever use of negative space, and unique sculptural hardware. His work creates f...
