Pantyhose that don’t run or rip? YES!

When I think of pantyhose, the first thing that comes to mind, are rips and runs. I have never owned a pair that didn’t eventually get a run in them or holes- I feel like it’s inevitable, because they’re so delicate. UNTIL NOW! Sheertex is changing the pantyhose game! Yesterday I wore mine all day and you better believe I was pulling on them to see if the claims were true. I was literally trying to tear them and nothing was happening, I also tried poking my finger through them and… nothing. They held up and are seriously strong! Another great thing about these pantyhose is the sustainability factor, most pantyhose usually last 1-3 wears before they rip, tear or run and you have to buy more. With Sheertex, they last so long that you’re saving precious landfill space and money. WIN WIN!

There are many different sheertex color and size options to choose from, I chose the polka dot version.

Fall Nail Color Favorites!

21 Nov

I love beautiful rich dark shades for fall and winter and thought I’d share my favorites colors with you. They are both by Essie, but most polish companies make these shades or similar shades. I do favor Essie when it comes to darker shades because their formulas are super thick and don’t streak.

Stylenomics is a deep green shade.

Carry On is a dark deep burgundy wine shade.

Wedding Heels (Under $100)

7 May

CALLING ALL BRIDES TO BE>>>> Wedding season is right around the corner and if you’re a bride to be, you may already know that searching for the right wedding heel can be a daunting task. I have been asked numerous times about my wedding heels so I thought I’d share them with you and a few more styles that I love- all under $100. My 4th wedding anniversary is fast approaching and I still remember the last-minute STRESS of finding the right heel. That all ended when I stumbled upon this picture on Pinterest! I had to have these heels! After searching I found out they were by Nina shoes. It was a breath of fresh air finding a brand that had so many wedding heels at decent prices. Your wedding heels should accent your dress without stealing the show and the price shouldn’t break the bank! Nina shoes also come in a variety of colors so they’re perfect for bridesmaids or for the bride looking to wear a pop of color on her special day. Hopefully this post will help you find your perfect heel. Cheers! And congrats on your upcoming nuptials! Below are some of my favorite wedding heels starting from lowest heel height to highest. Nina Culver Heel Height 2.5″ Nina Forbes Heel Height 3″ Nina Vinnie Heel Height 3.5″ Nina Vianna Heel Height 3.5″ Nina Electra (my wedding heels) Heel Height 4″ Nina Cabaret Heel Height 4″ Nina Cosmos Heel Height 4″

I can’t get enough of Bitter Buddhist, a milky greyish green shade from Smith & Cult. I first spotted this shade on Eva Chen when I saw this picture on her Instagram and I went on a HUNT for it. I received it recently and LOVE IT!!!!!!!!! It is different from any green I’ve seen and is perfect for Spring and Summer. I will be living in this color!!!!! Shop this gorgeous green below.

Smith & Cult ‘Bitter Buddhist’ $18

I also came across this dupe at Ulta for $8 if you’re on a budget. I swatched it at the store and it’s totally the same.

Teal Heels!!!!

17 Oct

Every Fall & Winter a slew of gorgeous rich colors make their way into our wardrobes. Most of us turn to our black, grey, brown and navy pieces throwing the occasional burgundy and camel in the mix and call it a day. This year however, I’m already seeing much more color- tons of reds, greens, oranges and purples but my favorite color of all is TEAL! I love how luxuriously fun teal is! The emerald meets deep blue hue is so pretty and pairs well with many other colors like black, grey, camel and gold! I can’t even express how much I love gold and teal together!

A great way to incorporate this divine color into your wardrobe is to start with a heel! Check out these styles below!

1.Boutique 9 heel $105 available HERE.

2. Asos diagonal strap detail heel $50 available HERE.

3.Boutique 9 snake embossed heel $98 available HERE.

4.Dorothy Perkins heel $44 available HERE.

5. Nine West heel $69 available HERE.

While we’re on the subject, a teal nail polish never hurt nobody either!!!!!!!!!

Essie’Go Overboard’ $8 available HERE.
