We're hours away from the new year and I'm feeling a little indifferent. I don't feel nostalgic in any shape or form , which is weird because New Years Eve always brings out the nostalgia. Maybe it's because I've been caught up in work or because I am very happy to see 2015 go. This was a difficu…

Let me start off by saying how much I've always disliked soups. A weird introduction, right? But it's true! I never ate soup or stew because the texture freaked me out. What's the point of eating flavored water?? There was only one type of soup I liked and that was Baked Potato Soup (because it's fat…

2015 was a great year for all things lifestyle, beauty, fashion... in my opinion. I think I really came into my own with style and knowing what I like. This was definitely also the year of shopping and boy did I shop. With my first real time job, first real paycheck, I went a bit crazy. In 2016, I vow to slow my rol…

It was almost a year ago that I finally sat down and posted in 101 in 1001 list . A list of 101 things to do in 1001 days. The idea was originally inspired by Mackenzie Horan of Design Darling  and it was something I had been wanting to do for a while. I still have more than a year to accomplish everything and I'…

I love when I start to see new things at the drugstore, Ulta, and in Sephora. It makes my beauty loving heart so incredibly happy! I was browsing Ulta's website the other night and saw all these new items from drugstore (and a few high end brands) being released! A lot of the items I was interested in are from…

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates! I hope you have a lovely day with your loved ones! Remember why we celebrate but enjoy the day nonetheless. I hope Santa brought you everything on your list :)

I think having holiday traditions is such great part of family and the holiday season. I've always loved hearing about what other people do on the holidays and also how traditions that may be common to everyone differ from family to family. Some people open their gifts from "Santa" on Christmas Eve whi…

Where has the time gone? Christmas Eve is tomorrow and New Year Eve is next week. 2016? Is this serious? I cannot believe it. I'm officially on Christmas vacation and it was glorious only going into work 2 days this week. It was a much needed moment of rest and relaxation and I'm really looking forward to th…

Good morning! I'm actually writing this as I post which is different for me because I always write my posts the night/few days before. Last night I didn't get home until 10 PM and was out like a light by 11:30.  I had my first ever office holiday party in Manhattan and it was really great. I felt like a rea…

I don't usually post Thursday Inspirations but it's Wednesday night, I'm exhausted and didn't post on Wednesday and didn't want to not post on Thursday. It's been quite the week at work, and I'm feeling kind of down and just not up for blogging. I hate that...when I have so many great pos…

Ah the final Birchbox of the year. I am unsure if this will be my last Birchbox for a few months but we'll see eventually...I'll probably wait to see the January sneak peek video that Birchbox posts every month on Youtube  and then decide if I'll cancel or not. I just look all the perks of Birchbox :( #…

Since the fall/winter season has started, I've stepped up my mani game. At the beginning, I had almost no good colors in my collection. I love dark reds, browns, and purples but a lot of my nail polish had gone bad. I was in desperate need of new colors and I've gotten them. One of the newest colors I got th…

I'm currently sitting at my desk, in a freshly cleaned room, organizing my drawers and watching Michael Buble's Christmas special. AND tomorrow is Friday...does it get much better than that? I think not my friends! This was an incredibly long week for many reasons; I didn't feel 100% health wise, I was a…

While I haven't been loving my Birchbox monthly boxes lately, Birchbox is still killing the beauty game. They have been turning out awesome exclusive kits lately and on Black Friday, I just couldn't resist anymore. As I've said all this week, I've been obsessed with skincare lately and while brow…

This is a sponsored post but all opinions are my own I have extremely dry, thick, unruly, and frizzy hair. It's always been an issue for me and I've tried every product under the sun. I've had my hair relaxed, had two Keratin treatments, and learned how to manage my hair, but when I was younger--it was t…
