So I received a blazer from Sammydress.com that I’m really loving. I’ve heard of them before but I was a bit hesitant to order from them, simply because of reviews I’ve heard about the quality and sizing of the clothing from similar sites. When I was offered the opportunity to choose what I wanted in exchange for my review, I decided to try them out. While on the site I came across this Peach Blossom Print Long Sleeve Blazer that I thought was really cute. I was a little unsure of wh[...]
There's an unwritten rule that says “There's no crying in fashion”, understandable right? Having thick skin when it comes to fashion is a must unless one of the hottest brands decides to collaborate with one of your favorite stores and you miss out completely. Then you can cry, scream, yell and kick all while silently cursing out those oh so lucky people who were able to snag a few goodies. Then you have those people, whose sole purpose was to buy items and sell them on eBay for double t[...]
// // ]]> Clueless is one of my all-time favorite 90’s movies. When it was in theaters, I went to see it a couple of times. Who doesn’t love Cher Horowitz and her BFF Dionne Davenport? By now, I swear I’ve seen this movie over a million times, I own it on VHS and DVD. No matter how much time passes, Clueless will always be a classic, must-see movie. “Cher: Been shopping with Dr. Seuss? Dionne: Well at least I wouldn’t skin a collie to make my back pack.” Both were into layer[...]
I received a 1.7 fl. oz. travel size bottle of Evian Facial Spray. It’s the perfect size to take along when you’re on the go. I’ve used this Facial Spray before (in the 5 fl oz bottle) and I must say, I’m a huge fan. It’s perfect for everyday and year round use. I keep a bottle in my purse and use it a few times throughout day or whenever I need a quick refresher. If you’re constantly on the go or a person who loves to travel and wants to maintain beautiful skin and flawless make[...]
October is finally here which can only mean one thing, Halloween! Every year I try to plan my costume ahead of time but, I usually end up waiting until the last minute to decide who I want to be. Which then leads me to search through empty shelves in the costume aisle, forced to throw together a last-minute look. Last year I had an idea of who I wanted to be, but since I was so indecisive and waited until the night before I ended up being a sexy kitty. The year before that, I threw together a 7[...]
// // ]]> I'm always looking for something to do besides the usual dinner and a movie night, so I decided to share a list of 15 things to do during the month of October. Sometimes it's just fun to mix things up a bit and try something new or just do something you haven't done in a while. It’s Cider Time! Check out your local Cider Mill for all your donut and cider needs. Have fun picking apples, finding your way through a corn maze, and enjoying other fun activities. - To find a[...]

// Naomi Campbell doesn't plan on retiring anytime soon. In my eyes Naomi Campbell is one of the greatest models to ever walk a runway. I recently watched a video, where she spoke to Nick Knight about racism in the fashion industry and the reason she refuses to retire. She’s unhappy with the continuous lack of racial diversity in the fashion industry. Naomi continues to make appearances on the runway because she feels she still has to represent for women of co[...]
