The only reason I try to do anything on New Year’s Eve is for the sequin outfit moment.  Very straightforward with this, no pretending to enjoy a good night out in the middle of dead winter paying premiums for the Uber & tickets to party – I’m here for the dress.

5 Favorite Black Friday Sweaters Still On Sale

The past few years the ONE thing I stalk up on during Black Friday are sweaters.  I find a good sweater to be too dang expensive throughout the year, but at 50% off you can grab a few at very gorgeous pricepoints. I ordered several from all the stores offering sales & narrowed it down to my favorites.

3 Everyday Lipsticks For The Everyday Girl

We can talk about the glitter & glam side of makeup all day, and it’s very easy to go that direction with all the new products constantly coming out.  The dramatic cat eye, holiday glitter shadow, cut cheekbones, ultra-defined brows, & the fluffiest fake eyes lashes are all EXCITING, but how realistic are they for the average girl heading to her office in the morning with -15 minutes to get ready?

The Perks Of Social Media

One thing I don’t understand? Mean people on social media.  The entire act of saying something horrible through a social media outlet, especially to someone you don’t know, is one of my biggest mysteries.  If only I could meet someone who does that & figure them out…

10 Holiday Gifts for Him & Her

I’m the person that looks at every single gift guide because one list doesn’t cover everyone.  Each person has their own twist on gift guides & everyone on my shopping list has their own unique taste – I require all the options.

This is my ultimate gift list for the HIM’s & HER’s in your life!  I based this list off gifts that either Wafiq or I received & we considered to be pretty good. I tried to do a wide price range so you can find something in whatever budget you’re looking for.  Keep in mind, if you’re ordering gifts online, order soon!  You want to receive the packages with plenty of time for wrapping & delivering!

3 Tips To Conquer What You’re Grateful For

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!  There is nothing better than bringing everyone together over food in preparation of the winter months, we should make this a monthly thing.  Call it something else perhaps? I’m into family/friends gathering over a nice meal & hitting pause for a moment to hopefully be together.

3 Must-Have Winter Jackets Under $200

Holy smokes, Austin Texas rolled straight from the scorching heat of summer into the freezing tundra of winter.  Fall?  One thing I learned last year is the importance of a VERY warm jacket.  Specifically, a jacket that you can easily wear with any outfit so you’re never feeling mismatched, rather always put together.

5 Major Tips To Clean Up Your Living Space

I’m the queen of the quote “get rid of it”.  If I have to think twice, whatever it is – is GONE!  I wasn’t this way my entire life, I used to love holding on to every single thing I’ve ever owned because it all had a memory attached.  I don’t know if it was therapy, anxiety, reality, or my having a brutally realistic conversation with myself – but I’ve made improvements.

My Ride Or Die Body Moisturizer

Body moisturizer might not sound like a big deal to the average person, but that’s because they haven’t found the right one. I used to be like them – going about my life worrying about the right color lip gloss for my day, to wear flats or heels, what time I was going to sleep – but then I discovered a key part of my day to day activities: body moisturizer.

Minnesota Eats & Deets | Fall 2018

Listen to me, you’re going to get used to seeing Minnesota more often because I’m planning on visiting… a lot.  Not only is it where I grew up, my family is there, it’s beautiful, has all the seasons, BUT the airline expense has significantly dropped, and I’m talking non-stop flights.  IF that doesn’t get you excited, you clearly have some exciting things going on & I can’t hate you for that.
