Muted + Listening. #BlackLivesMatter
Image Source: Sacree Frangine I will be taking a break from my usual content to self-reflect, educate myself, listen to Black voices and focus on how we can make permanent, meaningful change in the fight against racial injustice and inequality. I am pausing all personal and sponsored posts for the time being to empower, amplify, and create space for those that need to be heard. Right now there are important things to be addressed, conversations to be had, and news to be spread. Human rights always take top priority over anything else. It doesn’t feel right to be posting my usual content right now. It is crucial to keep this…

Back to School w/ VS Pink
I wanted to get some cute but comfy clothes for the upcoming semester, so I went to VS PINK as I usually do when getting ready for back to school. VS PINK always has such adorable, trendy pieces to create outfits with! My favorite part of VS PINK’s clothes besides how stylish they are is that they are made from super soft materials and flattering on me. The first thing that I wanted to share with you are these Flannel Sleep Boxy shorts. They sell for $19.95 each or you can get or 2/$28 ($14 each) or 3/$36 ($12 a pair)! I think these are an amazing price for someone on a budget, especially…

I got a fetish… Pat McGrath’s Skin Fetish: Sublime Perfection Foundation
I’m a first-timer when it comes to trying Pat McGrath. I was very excited when I found out that I would be recieving their product complimentary for testing and promotional purposes, as I heard such positive things about this brand and finally had the opportunity to see what all the hype is about for myself. I’ll start off by saying while this product was different from my expectations, it did not disappoint. This foundation is described as “a long-wearing, customizable foundation that builds from sheer to medium coverage in a wide range of universal hues that manifest the ultimate sublime skin standard” on Sephora’s website. It is also worth noting…

Candlefish Candles – Scents Crafted in Charleston
I usually always have a candle lit when I am hanging out in my apartment. I love how they give off a refined scent, making my home smell good for myself and any visitors. In my opinion, candles make a more welcoming atmosphere (think about when you walk into a restaurant or shop with a lit candle). It’s always such a pleasure to light a candle when you come home from work or when you are trying to relax. Some even believe that lighting candles can have other positive benefits, such as an increase in focus and positive feelings while also decreasing stress. Certain scents even bring me back to…

The Governors Ball Music Festival 2019: Good times, music, eats, & more.
Governors Ball is basically the Coachella for NYC peeps. Governors Ball is comprised of 3 different days (Friday, May 31st -Sunday, June 2nd) and different acts perform each day. This year, I decided to go to The Governors Ball Music Festival on only Saturday. This is my 6th year going. I used to only do one day when I first started to attend, but for the past 2 years I did all 3 days. I honestly would feel so tired and dead by the 3rd day, so this year I decided to only go one day – Saturday. I also liked the line-up for Saturday the most and had the…

New Summer Bag: White GG Marmont Matelassé Leather Super Mini Bag
I was honestly debating getting this bag for a while, but I decided to finally go in and get it! I didn’t know about getting a luxury bag in such a light color, if it would stain, if I would get use out of it, or if the size was practical. However, after further consideration I decided that this would be a good bag for me to invest in! I love the Marmount collection, I have the Small Shoulder Bag in Dusty Pink and the 2.0 bag in red. This bag retails for $890 + applicable tax. It has a softly structured shape and a flap closure with Double G…
