Whether your stingy, able to share or your thinking gifting - you can never go wrong with a Beauty Bundle. Beauty Bundles is a term that means beauty gift sets (or at least to me). If I love a brand I like having more than just one of something and even if a few shades may not work for me, then you can place them in a gift for someone else. You're not only passing on the gift of beauty and good taste but it's just good Girlonomics! Whether this means that it goes in as a stocking stuffer or becomes a thank you when you're staying with one of your girfriends half way across the country (I'm know as the person who when packing, I pack up a lot of product that I'm sent to my friend who I'm staying with during a trip).
Today's goodies are brands that I could not go without! You know that I'm super passionate about Purple Lab's Huge Lips, Skinny Hips gloss as my lips stay super moisturized and the smell is so yummie - you feel like a glamazon just applying it!. I became obsessed this time last year with the 24/7 Eyeliner from Urban Decay. My eyes are ALWAYS lined with their Kohl color. If I happen to go to a Sephora and they have run out of that color, I will stalk every Sephora in the city to get it! Nars Cosmetics is another passion that I have for almost 2 years! I love their body polish which keeps me glowing, their eyeshadows, gloss and more but I also love their nail colors as well. Any shade that has a pop of vixen in it, I'm all over it. Finally, when it comes to Sephora, I could spend all my hours in there with so many brands to play with. In addition, I love their private line as well. Many times when I'm unsure of a color I start with their brand as they have so many colors!
Whatever your reason, buying a few things here and there and having multiples is an awesome way to build your beauty cases or massive trunks - whichever way you organize it! Start thinking about gifting yourself and others this holiday season!
Yes the economy may not be where we want it to be but there are perks (purely on the consumer side). Last night, I was at Lord & Taylor who was already having a sale and low and behold, I received an additional sale. I was so pleased and wondered if I should have gotten a couple of other pairs! On that same note, Neiman Marcus is having a massive sale from now through Dec 24th! For you lucky ducks that are in the area, you can enjoy between 20 - 50% off on various items and then an ADDITIONAL 20% off! This isn't just for gifts but you can also boost your wardrobe for a fraction of the cost! Take some time to check out your local stores and websites to see what's available!
If you need ideas for gifting, make sure that you think about Jennifer Creel, a New York Socialite who shares some of her ideas with Vogue.TV! I love the fact that you may be able to get items that you had questions about as many times we send gifts to those that we may not know as well but would like to let them know that we're thinking of them! Whatever your reason, check them out!
I love this time of year! Although I am resting from coming back from Atlantic City last night, I am still hard at work thinking about the holiday season and so I wanted to share two of my favorite things with you! First off, I am a fan of Crate and Barrel - I love that they have so many pieces that so eye catching that you feel they must be in your home! In addition, who doesn't love a gift from Crate and Barrel? In addition, I love cookbooks! Here are some great cookbooks that are perfect for this wintery season and all the holidays. These are great dishes that could be made with friends and can be given as gifts. Don't forget the cookie book that has been included as well - a great way to gift your office, doorman, etc! Take some time to check out these books and of course they have a lot more of these availabe online and in stores as well!
Someone who has yet to be covered on this site but will be as we get closer to the holidays, will be on HSN tomorrow morning at 1am (yes this is Saturday) and hosting will be Rachel Huber who will do the Host Pick Show! I love her pieces which have a lot of glam in each one and a great array of colors. Make sure that you check out Amanda Jaron's jewelry and look for her to be covered here! I do love seeing great pieces right before the holiday season so that you can buy for you, your parties and for gifting - it's such a win win!
I love t-shirts! Those with graphics are even better! I think they're perfect year around and they can be layered as well. I love this shirt with the pops of yellow on it. What a sunny shirt to wear when you're out and about with friends on a weekend brunch, when you're traveling and want to wear something comfortable. I love the 60/70's "Love Theme" that seems like something Beatles oriented. The best thing about this shirt is that for under $9, it's all yours - what a great way to build your weekend wardrobe or your vacation one if you're about to head out on a trip. You have to love Forever 21 and if it's not in your area, you can shop online which is always a good thing! Check out more pieces on Forever 21 for you and others (great gifting).
We love hearing from you! Suggestions, ideas and thoughts are always welcome.
