Gold Watches

What is it about a chunky gold watch that makes any outfit seem so much cooler?

In my dreams I'd be sporting Marc Jacob's version. But the DKNY works just as well. 

(Plus it was on clearance at Dillard's for 32 bucks!)

                                

Stylish Necessities

MJ over at Teaching in Heels passed on the Stylish Blogger Award to me. Thanks MJ!

The rules are I have to share 7 things about myself. I thought I would share 7 things that I couldn't live without in the fashion and beauty department. Feel free to play along!

1. Urban Decay Naked Palette. Best. Palette. Ever.

2. Sonia Kashuk Gel Liner. Survived more than one sob fest smudge-free. 

3. Sonia Kasuk Makeup Remover. Life changer. Enough said. Run to your nearest Target.

4. Aquage Uplifting Foam.  All the benefits of teasing without the rats nests.

5. Urban Decay Primer Potion. Shadow lasts all day with no creasing or smudging (do yourself a favor and get the squeeze tube)

6. Cocktail Rings. Forever 21 has the best selection under 5 bucks.

7. Velvet Hangers. Another life changer. They maximize the storage in my itty bitty closet and keep all my clothes in place (even those pesky tank tops).

What are your fashion/beauty necessities? 

City Prints

I sort of have a thing for city prints. I like to collect them when I travel to a new city. I'd love to add these Matte Stephens prints to my collection. 

Do you collect anything when you travel?

Topshop + Leopard = Perfection

Is this not the most divine leopard scarf? It's perfectly subtle and not at all tacky. 

Is it too late to add to my Christmas list? 

Bow Studs

Some days I want to go simple on the jewelry, but it's hard to find cute options. These bow studs by Marc Jacobs are perfect. They come in gold too! These could easily become my go-to earrings.

Do you have a go-to accessory that you are often reaching for?

Ohio love

I think I need this print.

Find your state here.

One Line A Day

I've never been into journaling, but I love the concept of having something to look back on. This One Line A Day book is perfect! It holds five years of memories too. Maybe I will have to start this next year.

State Necklace

I think these state necklaces by Maya Brenner are so precious! Would you represent your state proudly?

Latte Bowls

Ever since Nie described her adorable anniversary tradition with latte bowls, I've been in love with them. At $24 for 6, it's not a bad deal either. I just love all the colors too! Buy them here.

Ici Silicone Tools

These are the best cooking utensils ever! Seriously every cook needs one (or more) of these. They are sturdy, easy to clean , long lasting, won't scratch your pans, and they won't become discolored or misshapen. My parents have all but the slotted spoon and I've been planning to buy some of my own, but always forget! Stop in to Williams Sonoma and check them out, and you will fall in love too! Or you can buy them online here.

LOVE it

I've found myself browsing Etsy a lot lately. I've seen this poster featured on other blogs and I just love it! Here is this fab lady's Etsy shop, and she also has a blog! Wouldn't this just brighten up a room?
