I’ve always been a huge fan of a good scrunchy. I don’t think you could find me without one on my wrist or in my hair, but lately I’ve been really into hair scarves! At first they scared me because I didn’t really know how to wear them, but after some trial and error I…

Gucci Inspired Outfit
Gucci has recently become one of my favorite designer brands (don’t worry Chanel you will always be number one). I’m obsessed with the edgy yet sophisticated style with their signature red and green. (Red and green just happen to be my favorite colors). Sadly, I am a college student and cannot afford to be dressed…

I think we can all agree that this palette is STUNNING. There are so many beautiful bright colors and a few unique ones.

Lash Extensions… Are They Worth It?
A few weeks ago I decided to make the plunge… I got lash extensions. Now we’ve all heard the horror stories of lash extensions where people leave with swollen red eyes and their lashes fall off, but thankfully this was NOT my experience. I actually really enjoy my lash extensions and am going to explain…

It’s almost March which means spring is coming (even though it’s still below freezing here in Massachusetts). I am ready for warm weather and for the grass to grow again. In honor of this, I put together an outfit that is perfect for the transition from winter to spring. The items are on the pricier…
The Perfect Valentine’s Day Look
I really wanted to play off the whole “red for Valentine’s Day” idea but with a little twist, so I went with a monochromatic burgundy look. I paired a casual winter sweater with a chocolate brown leather zip up skirt. These paired together look so great because of the contrasting fabrics. I also love how…
At Home Gel Machine – Does it Work?
If you’re anything like me you HATE painting your nails with regular polish because you are too impatient to wait for them to dry, but you also HATE going to the salon and spending around $30 every two weeks for gel nails! Because I no longer wanted to spend money to get my nails done,…
