Cold Weather Essentials

“If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.”
-Maya Angelou 


Hi guys!! Happy New Year!! I’m very excited about this being the first post of the year! Let me just say that 2014 felt like a blink, it was an amazing year, but I’m excited to see what 2015 is going to bring. I have so many ideas and goals for this blog and I’m so so excited for you guys to see them.

Since its still January I decided to share some items that I find to be most important during the cold weather. We are having a pretty unpredictable Winter here in LA, there are days where a warm jacket is needed, days where we have to bundle up just enough, days where we have to pop out our rain boots, and there are also days where we have woken up in the middle of the night in sweat. For those very random cold or chilly days I usually reach for a beanie, an oversized sweater, leggings, and some boots.


Beanie
I usually like to wear crochet beanies to keep my ears warm, this 
one here was around $5, you can find these almost anywhere
for around the same price.

Sweater
I like to wear light weight but warm sweaters. This one is the cutest 
and warmest sweater ever and I absolutely love the pattern. I 
bought this one at a local clothing store, I can’t remember 
the price but it wasn’t very expensive.

Leggings 
The leggings I like to wear have fleece inside, which are great for 
keeping legs warm. They were about $5 at a local store.

Boots 
My favorite boots are by Michael Kors, they’re very comfortable 
and they keep my feet nice and warm. 





How are you enjoying Winter? What helps you stay warm?

Winter Makeup

“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself”
-Coco Chanel


Hi guys, Isn’t it so exciting? Christmas is just around the corner (excited fist squeeze)! I am overwhelming myself with all the Holiday things that are coming out everywhere, although I refused to decorate and listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Im not quite sure why, but there’s something about waiting until the Friday after Thanksgiving to pile on all the Christmas music, sparkles and things! December and its cold weather is my absolute favorite month, not only because it’s Christmas time, but also because I can wear fluffy hats, warm coats, and dark and red lips everyday with no shame (not that I’m ever ashamed...but you know what I mean). A dark or red lip with a bronze eyeshadow is my go to makeup match for December.

What is your favorite Winter makeup look?




Products
Here's a list of the products I used on my face. There are also links to the Tarte Palette
and the NYX Palette below in case you're interested in seeing them up close, so feel free to click on those.

Tarte Rainforest After Dark
(I mixed Don’t Turn A-Brown and Make A Mauve for the creese, used Park Ave Princess to lightly contour my face, and used Champagne as the highlight)

NYX Love In Paris Eyeshadow Merci Beaucoup Palette 
(I applied the Bronze on the eyelid)

NYX Eye Pencil SPE903 Dark Brown

(I used it instead of a black eyeliner for a softer eye look that wouldn’t
over power the bold lip)

Sally Hansen Plumberry Prune Blush

Mac Amplified Tribalist lipstick 


Rimmel London Kate Lipstick Kiss of Life #111
