Winter Wonderland Tag: 1|24|16


Happy Sunday everyone! Being from NYC, you're used to snow every winter. We have an occasional storm every few years and this year we sure had a storm to remember! We got about 20-25 inches of snow over the weekend here, and I've been cooped up in my house watching Netflix and stuffing my face with food (which is bad I know!) While I'm stuck in the house, I was searching the internet for a winter tag to do and came across the Winter Wonderland Tag. I thought it would be a fun tag to do and hope you all will do the tag with me. I tag each and every one of you that read this post! Have some fun!

Enjoy!

What do you like best about winter?
My favorite thing about winter is being able to layer clothing and wearing giant, blanket like scarves to keep me warm. I love winter fashion because you can layer and be super warm and cozy while looking stylish at the same time. 

Scarves or beanies?
Scarves, for sure! I love all kinds of scarves, but my favorite are the giant blanket scarves that can be worn a multitude of ways.

Favorite Winter Nail Polish?
I love muted,neutral colors for winter. I love wearing gray or mauve tones on my nails.

Favorite Starbuck's drink?
My favorite Starbuck's drink to warm me up is a hot green tea latte. I'm obsessed with anything matcha flavored!

What are your top 3 winter essentials?
My top 3 winter essentials are:
-Chapstick because no one likes dry chapped lips
-Body butter to help lock in moisture as skin tends to be drier in the winter
-Scarves to keep warm

Must have winter lip product.
I love using lip scrubs to get rid of and prevent future dry, flaked, or cracked skin on my lips.

Favorite Winter Candle Scent.
I love anything that smells like cookies or baking. I'm currently burning a Yankee Candle scented Almond Toffee and it smells AMAZING! Thanks to my co-worker for gifting me this ;)

That concludes this Winter Wonderland Tag!

Favorite Song:


I was so excited when Coldplay came out with new music. I am a huge fan, and this song just puts me in a good mood!

Favorite Drink:

This week, I'm obsessing over my regular drink from Starbuck's, a green tea latte. It is such a delicious pick me up and a great alternative to when I'm not in the mood for coffee.


Favorite Quote:

"Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom."
-Aristotle

Being it is a new year, this quote resonated with me. I am always trying to work on myself and it is a big challenge. I try and do subtle things each and every day that'll make me happy. 

Favorite YouTuber:

Desi Perkins

Desi has always been a favorite of mine, but this week she wins the top spot. When I first discovered Desi, she was a blonde bombshell doing amazing makeup week after week. Recently, she started a vlog channel with her husband, Steven. Their editing skills are amazing and it makes me appreciate their work so much. And also, Desi went brunette this week and I am DYING at how beautiful she looks!




Favorite Brand:

I have obsessed over Club Monaco for as long as I can remember. I've always wanted to be able to afford their clothing, but it was always too expensive for me. Recently, I went on their site and noticed they were having a sale. I finally can say I own something from their store and I am super excited to style it. I bought the Lindy Soft Trench in olive and I am so in love. The coat is so soft and lightweight, and I cannot wait to layer pieces with it and wear big chunky scarves. 




Enjoy!
