I recently visited Minneapolis, Minnesota, and got to spend roughly 48 hours in town. You already know ya girl was looking for three things: food, fun, and shopping. The Best Place to Stay In Minneapolis I stayed at the Minneapolis Marriot City Center (check out my room and the view in my idea pin below), and I highly recommend you check it out if you're looking for a place to sta[...]
I recently ordered a sample set from Maison Francis Kurkdjian, so I could try Baccarat Rouge 540 (Retail $325). It's often hailed as one of the best luxury perfumes for women, and I've wanted to try it for ages. The only issue is that we don't have any luxury stores in my state, where I could check it out. So when I found out that I could order a sample set of 4 from MFK for $16, I was h[...]
Did you know you could order 4 perfume samples from Maison Francis Kurkdjian (including Baccarat Rouge 540) for $16? You're welcome. I've been really curious about the perfume Gentle Fluidity Gold, and I wanted to know what Baccarat Rouge 540 smelled like (v.s. Cloud, IFYKYK) so I ordered some samples. For about $16, you can order 4 of the 2mL perfume samples of your choice from Maison Fr[...]
One of these blazers is $25 from SHEin, and the other is $70 at Zara. Can you tell which is which? Neither could most people on Instagram and TikTok when I posted my video lol (check it out below). When I saw this SHEin dupe for the Zara blazer I had recently purchased, I had to order it and see how they compared. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Theresa[...]
The SKIMS Soft Lounge Long Slip Dress has gotten a lot of hype online, and I wanted to see what all the buzz was about. When it finally came back in stock, I ordered it in size small in the color Onyx (Retail, $78). Girl, when I tell you it was worth ALL 78 of the dollars. I have yet to be disappointed with any of my SKIMS purchases, I love both of my waist trainers and skirt slips. ![...]
I wanted to try doing a jumbo braid ponytail on my lace front wig (well technically, it has a frontal), and I'm so glad I did. Firstly, I want to see if I could pull it off before I attempt a traditional frontal ponytail (and buy a frontal and bundle). Secondly, it's really inexpensive. If you already have traditional styling tools at home, you can pretty much get this look for about $6-$[...]
The official scent of hot girl summer has arrived: Utopia Vanilla Coco by Kayali (Retail: $100). This new perfume by Kayali is a beautiful, sweet, and luxurious scent for the summertime. It literally smells like a luxurious beach vacation in a bottle. The notes in this fragrance include pear, jasmine, coconut, sandalwood, and vanilla bourbon. For me, the standout notes are the coconut (as[...]
Looking for versatile pair of sneakers that will go with everything? Here's what you need: a low white platform sneaker. I'm slowly embracing the sneaker world, but I've always kept a pair of these in my closet. They're a wardrobe essential for me because they will literally go with any outfit. If I want to add a casual touch to an outfit that I'd normally wear heels with, I can throw on[...]
I've seen the Tom Ford Velvet Disco Platform Heels everywhere online and simply put: they're fire. They retail for $1,250 USD, and my budget tapped me on the shoulder and said "maybe we should sit this one out sis" haha. Thankfully I'm really good at finding designer-inspired pieces. I came across these $45 heels from Ego Official, and they are the best affordable option I've seen if you'[...]
One of the biggest things I've learned while creating my oily skin care routine is that the focus should not be on using products to try and "dry it out." There was a time where I'd go into the store and hunt for whatever promised to keep my oils under control. This only lead to my skin feeling dried out and then getting super oily later on. Whew chile, the stress. After a lot of resea[...]
