Heaven In a Bottle! I Am Obsessed!

7 Sep

Let me start by saying that I am not one to buy a lot of different perfumes. I own about 6 total but have steadily used Versace Red Jeans and Vera Wang Princess for the last 8 years. I never thought I would add a third fragrance to my main lineup until I smelled Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium! WOW!!!! It is as intoxicating as a perfume can get. The scent is unique and bold, yet warm and sweet. It has vanilla, floral and coffee notes with some musky undertones. (not overpowering musk though) I think of it as the perfect blend of spicy and sweet and will be wearing it throughout Fall & Winter.

Side note: Black opium is an Eau de parfum so a little goes a long way.

Black Opium comes in 4 sizes ranging in price from $25-$115.

How gorgeous is that bottle? Also available in a blinged out version ($300) if you’re feeling really fancy.

Must have Handbag!

17 Mar

The title reads right, I think if there should be at least 1 handbag every woman owns it would be a top handled structured bag with it’s classic silhouette. The practical shape is so timeless that you can go with a wild print or keep it simple and it will remain on trend for as long as you own it.  I’m a handbag addict and I still go back to my top handle structured bags time and time again. Wear with anything from jeans to dresses and it will never look out of  place. Shop my favorite splurges and steals.   YSL navy & beige bag($1,995) available at Nordstrom.  Louis Vuitton multicolored Speedy 30 with pocket detail shown in black and in white($2,670)available at Louis Vuitton.  Bold zig zag print bag in camel($50) available at Lulu’s. Tory Burch black Robinson bag($550) available at Tory Burch.  Brown bag($24.95)available at H&M.  Black printed bag($41.40) available at Urbanog.  Aldo coral Dockwiller bag($50) available at Aldo. Brown Louis Vuitton Speedy 30($775) available at Louis Vuitton.

Crazy for Clutches (Splurges)

22 Feb

Clutches may be small, but they can make a HUGE impact on your look.  Clutches are my favorite accessory, I’m kinda obsessed actually.  They  transition from day to evening easily and come in a variety of sizes so you don’t have to worry about limited space.  Clutches are a perfect way to experiment with a color or material you would never wear and still feel comfortable.  If you want to try the latest neon trend, start with a clutch. Spikes, studs, animal prints and wild colors  are doable when they’re a clutch.  If you don’t have a clutch, I suggest you get one, I think you’ll be hooked too:) Pink Jason Wu python embossed($895) available at Nordstrom.  Navy Yves Saint Laurent clutch($845) ,Woven Burberry Prorsum clutch with buckle detail($1,295), Fendi fold over clutch in lemon($840), Alexander McQueen skull box clutch($2,295) all available at Saks Fifth Avenue. Orange Hermes clutch($2,500) available at Hermes.com. lavender Balenciaga clutch($1,065) available at Barneys.com
