online window shopping

holy smokes. ANTHRO. DRESSES. give me them all. these dresses - the cuts, the patterns, etc. - let's just say they were made for me. AND i only picked out one dress that was black! eeee. haha. but the down fall is before any taxes, shipping and what not this little collection of six lookers was a whopping $1400.00. yeaaahhh. a girl can dream.

what are your favourites on their site?

covet, purchase, obsess: favorites

covet: cathy waterman jewelry. 

she has the most beautiful stack rings. they also come at a pretty penny. 

a girl can dream.

purchase: i think that every girl should invest in a monogram necklace. not sure how you could be any more classic than this. i have seen them at $500 and i have seen them as low as $125 (at a local boutique). find that bargain and enjoy. it will never go out of style. 

obsess: this beautiful dress is designed by the equally beautiful katie ermilio. 

she is an extraordinary designer based out of new york city and i am OBSESSED. she is a style icon of mine and a continuous inspiration.

weekend wear: work event

 this past weekend was a working weekend for me! the only redeeming quality of working on the weekend is that i got to bring out my little black dress. i wore an outfit very similar to this one. sporting some black nail polish, red lips, and that exact necklace that i bought over christmas. it is the best addition- dresses up even a basic tee and jeans.

what did you do this past weekend? 

 i hope that you had a lovely weekend. 

enjoy the little things,

christmas wishlist no.1

i've been listening to christmas music non-stop since thanksgiving. its gotten me in the christmas mood for sure.

here's my wishlist. what's on yours?

-adair

1--2--3--4--5--6--7--8--9--10--11--12

julep

y'all there are two things in this world i will never tire of: 1- diet coke 2- nail polish. i am 100% obsessed with nail polish and i will never ever have enough.

and recently my obsession has grown-- all because of this wonderful place called julep (thank you anna waldrop for introducing me!). I LOVE JULEP. basically, you sign up and get a box full of nail posh sent to your door each month. its just about the best thing ever. BUT to top it all off, not only are their products amazing, but so are their employees. i talked to them on the phone -which i really dislike doing- and i felt like i was chatting with one of my girlfriends.

so, if you aren't one of julep's mavens well you should be! click here to sign up AAAAND you can get your first box 50% off  -- even better right?!--just use the code MAVEN50 at checkout!


ok, so this past month julep sent me a golden box -- which is basically the majority of that month's collection. and boy did i luck out-- look at all the loot:

here are some of the other months that i've received. -- also one of the best things is you can pick and choose which months you get a box. we all have those months where things are a bit tighter than usual money wise -- which for me was september -- so i just opted to skip that month no big deal.

and these bad boys are on my wish list!:

ps. and just to let you know how much i love nailpolish :) --

love + lust no. 1

here are some of beauty products i love and i lust... catchy right? haha. from left to right:

1. love: this sonja kashuk brush -- its so awesome for applying creme blush!
2. lust:when i ordered some make-up from sephora online -- which i love to do for the freebies--- i got this as one of the said freebies. this hairdresser's invisible oil is so awesome. it feels like you've taken months of damage away with one application.
3. love: this rusk hairspray. smells. so. good. and holds well. and you can get it at target. bonus.
4. lust: i've tried other morrocan oils before, but this one is said to be the be all end all of them. need to get my hands on some. 
5. love: let me just just say it: I LOVE BB CREAMS. and this one is the best. hands down. bb creams were first developed in korea and this is made by koreans. so the know what they are doing.
6. lust: i tried this because mary bought it -- and i almost stole it staight from her make-up bag. this mascara is for your bottom lashes and works wonders.
7. love: i love julep. like a lot. and their mascara makes my eyelashes look miles long. and i'll take that any day.
8. lust: i've never bought this rosebud salve, which is ridiculous. 
9. love: i bought this hair dryer recently and absolutely love it
10. lust: this mac brush is perfect for applying eyeliner. and a girl can never have too many brushes.

what are some of your favourites i should check out? have you tried anything on my lust list? let me know!
