Hey girls!  We are nearing the end of January, thank goodness!  But then we enter February…..ugh!  I am not a lover of winter weather and by this time I am thinking about Spring.  In January and February I get into a rut when it comes to buying things because it’s all sale stuff and sometimes you just gotta take a break! During this break of no purchasing I really like to contemplate what I want for Spring and what I need to get rid of to prepare for that. Keep reading and I will share with you the three easy things that I do to clean out my closet. 1. Evaluate Each Piece First, you will need to evaluate each piece for the season you…

Hello ladies! Welcome to the new Flat Lay to Life-Styled post!  In this post I will show you my real “life-styled” photos of some of my previous flat lays! YAY!  I have been wanting to do this for a while so I am excited to bring you the first one today! I picked some of my most liked outfits from this fall season.  I will also give you some styling tips along the way! Enjoy! This first outfit is with my favorite faux fur jacket of the season.  This one screamed my name as soon as I saw it because it was a bomber jacket in faux fur!  What a great combination.  I love that it looks so casual but makes you feel so chic when…

Hey y’all!  I finally found time to try some of the items from my Play by Sephora December box.  I loved the “Glam Straight” theme of it! So cute!  Deep down inside I wish I was glam but at least I can like glam things lol!  This sample box is focused on giving you the ultimate night-out look. The box contained the following and below are some shopable links if you are interested in looking at any of them. Smashbox Cover Shot Eye Shadow Duo in Golden Hour:  First of all, the colors in this eye shadow duo are AMAZING! They are called Turned On and Psyched. I went straight for this when I opened my box! One is a dark bronze color and the…

Hey Ladies! I found the coolest cosmetic bag for my mother for Christmas and I wanted to share it with you!  Not only is the cosmetic bag really cool, but the company behind the bag is pretty impressive!  They are Ellis James Designs.  If you have ever looked for a cosmetic bag, especially for travel, you will know that there are NOT a lot of good choices. I ended up looking on Amazon and found them there. I decided to go to the Ellis James Designs website to see what they were all about. I was impressed with the company mission and the products looked like they were high quality and functional.  Not only that, but the price was outstanding for the Large Cosmetic Organizer…

Hey Ladies!  Happy New Year! Have you thought about your goals for 2018?  I think goals are really important for everyone and they help give us direction and purpose in our lives.  I just started seriously blogging in the middle of 2017, so I have lots of goals in mind for 2018.  My business has been on a roller coaster ride for the past couple of years and blogging full-time was not something I thought I would be doing (but I am very glad it is!).   My dream is to educate women on how to have a versatile wardrobe without being boring, how to mix and match their pieces and how to make valuable purchases.  I want women to feel confident in who they are…

Hey there ladies!   I am a huge fan of companies that want to provide great quality and service to their customers.  One of these companies that I want to introduce you to today is Ilymix.  They are an accessories company out of China that I have recently had the pleasure of collaborating with.  I will never collaborate with a company or brand that I do not believe in or like their products.  I tested this one out before I would agree to do the collaboration.  I have to say I really like the products and the ordering process was quick and easy.   I can’t tell you how great it is over long term yet but so far so good.  Keep reading to find out more…

Hello Ladies!  I really wanted to do a post on my recommendations for holiday gifts. I wanted to make it fun and different and could not figure out what to do.  As I was laying in bed one night I remembered I needed to get some Chick-fil-A calendars for people for Christmas. We have done this the past few years. I try to get them early because one year they sold out.  This is something that people truly love to receive for Christmas and don’t usually purchase for themselves.  It is so simple and it’s the gift that keeps on giving!  Wow, LIGHTBULB!  That would make a great post for Christmas gift ideas! I decided to round up a list of things that I feel…
