I've done this post in the past and it slipped off my radar at the beginning of 2021 but I wanted to bring it back, even if I am almost a month late. I love keeping track of my most viewed blog posts, my most viewed and/or purchases products across my blog and other social platforms. This year I was accepted in Re…

Fall and winter are my favorite seasons for so many reasons so it's not a surprise that these seasons bring my favorite manicure shades. I love a good berry, a burnt orange, or a crispy, autumnal brown. I love dark, almost black reds and purples, or even a light, snowy blue. There's so many beautiful choices y…

Happy Friday! This was a short work week but my goodness, was it daunting. It was incredibly busy at work, so busy I felt like I couldn't breathe during the day. I'm so happy it's the weekend but almost already anxious about next week. Right now, I'm typing on my new Macbook Air... I ordered it at the …

I received this novel courtesy of Netgalley and wow, am I so glad I did! This was a standout novel and I'm saying it now, might be a contender for a top book of the year. The plot was incredibly interesting and I truly had no idea how it was going to play out. I read the entire book in two days, maybe even less wh…
My skin is dry all year round. It could be 90 degrees and I'm sweating my butt off by the pool and my skin still feels dry, scaly, and tight. I use two body lotions, daily, and my skin is still dry. However, nothing compares to the dryness I feel during the cold, winter months. The part of my body that is dry, da…
Back in the fall, I fell in love with the NCLA nail polish formula . It was beautiful and I couldn't wait to purchase more. For some reason, I felt compelled to place a huge order on their website a few weeks ago and knew I needed more polishes. I wanted a few neutral shades, maybe some Valentine's Day, and I…
The long weekend really got away from me, which is why this post is coming late on a Sunday night instead of Friday morning. I worked a slow day on Friday, then yesterday I woke up after 12 PM and the day kind of got away from me. Today I went for afternoon tea and scones with my friends and it was so cute. Afterward…

Dr. Barbara Sturm is a brand that is intriguing to me. She's a doctor who has a lot of experience with skin and skincare, so she's someone you would trust to buy beauty products from. I never thought about pulling the trigger on one of her products until I saw the Ski Cream pop up on the new arrivals page a…
Winter is here and my candle selection reflects that. I love fall candles more than life but my 2nd favorite is, of course, Christmas & winter candles. The merriest season of all came and went but I still burn a lot of Christmas scents until about March when it becomes socially unacceptable to be excited about win…
For the past few years, I have used my Louis Vuitton MM Agenda and planner inserts as my personal planner. I fell in love with the idea of an LV agenda when I first stumbled upon the preloved market and have been addicted to perfecting it ever since. My Louis Vuitton agendas have evolved over the years. I toyed wit…
Another day, another disgusting tragedy. What we saw on Wednesday of this week was not normal. It was horrifying and I never thought I'd see domestic terrorism play out that way. What is even worse is that not a ton of people were surprised; I'm not sure if that's because we knew it was going to happen or …

2020 was a hard year. I've been saying that for months and it still rings true, however, I am sick of talking about it. It was hard for a lot of reasons: for personal reasons, for the pandemic, for death, for social injustice, for adjustments, for the election, for the tension, for the fighting, for the selfishnes…
I am finally completing my trio of posts about the Lights Lacquer Holiday Collection. If you missed my first two posts, you can read them here and here . I received the package in PR and decided to paint my nails all December long with the collection. I started with the more traditional holiday shades to celebrate C…

Happy New Year everyone! I'm excited about a fresh start and I love the fact that New Years Day was on a Friday... it felt so good waking up in the new year knowing I have the entire weekend ahead of me. I woke up at 12 Noon, drank a glass of hot water and lemon, and savored the early afternoon. I cleaned my room…
