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[...]
Brunch is one of my favorite bougie recreational activities. Especially when there is french toast casserole on the menu. I love getting all dressed up to grab brunch with my girls, and I decided to put together some brunch outfit ideas featuring my favorite designer-inspired heels. I put together 4 different looks featuring these heels, and created a mini lookbook on Pinterest. Check[...]
Zara is one of my favorite stores, and I've been working on shopping for some new spring clothes for a hot minute. It always feels like there's this weird point in-between seasons where you can't find anything cute ANYWHERE, but it's looking like spring has finally sprung. Recently some cute spring pieces have started to drop at Zara, and I picked up a few while I was shopping. Here are s[...]
I promised myself that when I achieved a few of my goals, I was going to treat myself to the Louis Vuitton 26 Monogram Toiletry Pouch. Well, baby that day has finally come, and I'm so excited about my first luxury purchase. This pouch has been on my wishlist forever, and it's really tough to get your hands on. Why This Is A Great Starter Piece For Me I'm just starting to dip my[...]
Over the weekend, Beyonce dropped another Ivy Park x Adidas collection, called Icy Park. From the white knit catsuit to the camel latex bodysuit (sold out everywhere but on StockX) and pants, this collection gave us FASHION. This is the first Ivy Park collection that had pieces I couldn't pass up, so when it dropped, I was ready. !function(w,i,d,g,e,t){d.getElementById(i)||(element=d.[...]
Do you ever feel like you have nothing to wear? Because same. I quickly learned that when I feel this way, it's probably because I don't have enough basics in my closet. Here's the tea though sis, basics don't have to be basic. This is the principle that I have built my elevated capsule wardrobe on. A capsule wardrobe is simply a collection of pieces that you can mix and match to make[...]
