Who Doesn't Love Shiny Things!?

I adore sequins, sparkles, diamonds, rhinestones, crystals, metallic, and every type of shiny embellishment out there- trust me, I own them all! I have been embracing this trend since I was born, and have been doused in shiny things ever since- I can't help it, I just always gravitate towards extra embellished fun shiny things!
Sequins have been quite a big trend for awhile now, and this Fall they are still in full style; however, the trend has evolved a little bit. This Fall, designers are still showcasing sequins, but they seem to be on the much more muted side- the sequins have a less bright shine, and more of a dull matte appearance.
My first experiment with this new muted sequin trend was with my purchase of this flounce tbd Sequin Jacket (pictured). I purchased this mesh jacket in the silver version because I thought it would fit in with my jewelry and wardrobe best (although I REALLY loved the gold color available as well). The matte sequin color is great because it adds that bit of shine without being obnoxiously too much!
This light 3/4 length sleeve mesh jacket can be dressed up or down depending on how you style it. You can pair it with some dark denim and a black tank for a chic and casual vibe. Personally, I pair this mesh jacket with a simple and plain black dress and flats for a casual look. You can also dress it up by wearing heels or a more fancy dress underneath. I think this jacket is the most perfect accessory!
Verdict= FABULOUS!!!

You can purchase the flounce tbd Sequin Jacket at Nordstrom.

Water Marble Nail Art

Have you ever heard of "water marble" nail art?? Well, neither had I until a fabulous friend tipped me off about it. Water marbling uses a very unique process to make your nails look like the picture above!
Water marbling is such a different nail art process because you actually put drops of nail polish into a cup of water (crazy right?!). After putting a number of drops in, you use a toothpick or wooden stick to create a design within the polish, which is floating on top of the water. When you are done with your design, you dip your finger nail into it and push off the extra polish with the stick. Voila- there is your uniquely different water marble nail design!
Here is a great video that I found on YouTube that shows you exactly how to do water marble nail art- Also, you can just search for 'Water Marble Nail Art' on YouTube or Google and a ton of videos/pictures will come up.

Both me and my friend separately attempted to do water marbling on our nails after we explored the many YouTube video tutorials we found- Unfortunately, it was a lot harder than this talented woman makes it look. It also took a very long time just to do one nail (with the set-up and everything); however, I do think that it would become easier with practice (because we really had no idea what we were doing lol). It was a lot of fun to try this extremely interesting process, and I thought I would share it with all of you! Thanks for reading!

Excuse Me, Do You Have the Time?

I can't stress enough the importance of wearing a watch everyday- It has become an absolute staple and a necessity in my day-to-day wardrobe! The best thing about watches is that there are so many styles and brands to choose from- from super trendy and large to classy and discreet- it would be impossible with all of the options out there to not find a watch that didn't suit your every fancy!
Whether you are a man or woman, listen to this advice- Wear a watch everyday! It is not only fashionable, but also very functional. In my future profession as a business person, wearing a watch is especially key- in a meeting you can't just whip out your cell phone to check the time (you don't want to seem rude do you?); Rather just discreetly glancing down at your wrist to check the time is key when you are at meetings or presentations and do not want to seem rude or as though you aren't paying attention by taking your cell phone out.
This love of watches all started on my 18th birthday when I got the most amazing watch of my dreams as a big present from my parents- Ever since that day I have not left my house without this watch on my wrist. I love it so much and it is so special to me- it means so much and it makes me feel super special everyday!
Just a few weeks ago though, I cheated on my favorite watch ever and bought a new one! Not because I didn't love my watch anymore (which I 1000000% still do and still wear it basically everyday), but rather because I needed a less expensive watch to take traveling with me. I also wanted something a bit less classic and sophisticated, and more youthful and trendy. This led me to purchasing this fabulous Michael Kors Twin Row Crystal Chronograph Watch. Its big face and bold crystal design is so stunning and different from my other watch, I can't help but love it!

Do you wear a watch or can you live without one? Let me know in a comment on this post? Thanks for reading!

Want It Wednesday

Holy moley!!! These boots are the definition of fierce! When I came across these Christian Louboutin Toundra Coyote-Fur Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots I died- These are so edgy and different, and they're Louboutin which makes them extra fabulously amazing, of course!
These fabulously luxurious bootie is made of suede and covered allover in coyote fur, for a completely all-out luxe look! The heel measures in at almost 5 1/2", but these shoes have a great platform (1 1/2"), making the bootie comparable to a 4" heel= easier to maneuver in. The shoe boasts a slightly pointed toe and wide leather buckle straps that peek through the fur. And as always, this fabulous Louboutin has the classic and iconic red sole.
Although it is still summer (and I love the summer, don't get me wrong), I can't help but fantasize about doing a fierce diva stomp in these heels come Fall/Winter! I am obsessed with these shoes and wish I could have them! PS- they also come in black- LOVES IT!
You can pre-order the Christian Louboutin Toundra Coyote-Fur Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots at upscale department stores that sell Louboutin shoes (such as Saks, Neiman Marcus, etc)
Retail price: $2,095

YSL Touche Éclat

I'm back again with yet another beauty review- I just can't get enough makeup, I love it! This review is on the infamous and classic Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat.This product is a favorite of celebrities, socialites, models, and fashionistas worldwide- so of course, I had to give it a try myself!
The Touche Éclat is an award winning highlighter pen. This instant highlighter leaves your skin looking luminously radiant, while also helping to banish signs of fatigue and shadows on your face- it has been coined as "8 hours of sleep in a pen", and who doesn't need to look as though they've had some extra sleep?! I know I do!
The first thing that really stands out when purchasing the Touche Éclat is the fantastic packaging (I guess YSL figures that you're paying an exuberantly overpriced amount for this product, so they better make it pretty lol). The Touche Éclat is no different than other YSL products- it is packaged in the most stunningly shiny golden container- it looks so luxurious and beautiful! YSL definitely gets an A+ for their packaging of this product, it is gorgeous and I love it!
This pen is the perfect size to take with you anywhere, just in case you feel like you need an extra bit of glow! For best results, you should apply this product around the eye area, in the hollow of the chin, above your eyebrows, the contour of the lips and the sides of the nose. Choose which areas you think need some extra glow for you personally, which will normally change daily, and apply here- you can't go wrong!
Touche Éclat is available in four color choices ranging from- luminous radiance (light with a pink-ish undertone), luminous ivory (light with a yellow-ish undertone), light peach (medium warm beige color), and luminous toffee (rich brown toffee color). I personally chose the luminous ivory color and it matches perfectly on my skin tone- it was between radiance and ivory, but my skin has more yellow hues than pink. If you are unsure I would go to Sephora or a department store makeup counter and test it for yourself to get your perfect match.
This pen is NOT a concealer- do not be fooled of that, although it may look like one. It is a highlighter, designed to add light and glow to specific areas of your face, allowing you to look more refreshed. Unfortunately it does not really erase super dark circles (something that I suffer with). However, I have found that this product works best when used over your regular foundation and concealer regime- after you are done with that, then apply the Touche Éclat on top for best results.
Overall, I really do like this product- it looks great on my skin and gives me an extra glow. Everytime I take it out to use it I can't help but smile, since the packaging is so lovely- I will definitely be purchasing more from YSL because of this fact. However, the Touche Éclat is quite expensive compared to other similar products because it is by YSL. Also, I really do wish that the Touche Éclat was a concealer as well so I could eliminate one step to my makeup regime, instead of adding another one.

Verdict= Love it! (4/5 stars)

You can purchase YSL's Touche Éclat from department store makeup counters and Sephora.
Retail Price: $40

Manly Monday

It is Monday, fashionistas, and you know what that means... it's time for another Manly Monday! This week we have Tony Lopez here with us as a guest blogger! So without further adieu, here is Tony :) Thanks everyone!

Look at that. Do you feel inspired? That is a blueprint from the archives of Man Legend Tim Leatherman. A man's purse is his multitool, and my multitool is my Leatherman.

The attractive piece of metal you see above is the Leatherman Wave, my permanent accessory. You make a statement when you wear one of these on your belt. People look up to you. They look to you to open things. And while you will excel at opening things, applications are endless. With this unassuming piece of steel I have replaced my cell phone's capacitive touch screen, fixed a leak in my motorcycle's carburetor, trimmed down the leg of a table, and repaired my girlfriends tangled necklace (I also used dental floss for that one).

For me, and for many men, utility as well as fashion plays a role into what is worn and what is carried. It has happened to me more than once that a group of men gathers and notices the others' Leathermans (Leathermen?), nodding knowingly. And there are many different models, each with timeless advantages and nuances that mirror the individuality of he who chose it. The Leatherman is much more than an accessory, and more than a fashion statement. It is a symbol of ingenuity: a token which through its resource and reliability becomes a friend.

Man picked up stone and shaved it into a knife before he donned his first scrap of clothing. The power of a tool is so deeply rooted in a man's psyche that they continue to be revolutionized today. The outrageous practicality of a multitool often masks its secondary function as a statement of worth. What is the point of fashion, but to enjoy one's own expression? A multitool like a Leatherman is just such an expression, and it will be for millennia to come.

Thanks for reading everyone!
