A blog entry of things that I love and constantly use, that no one asked for. 😉
TOM FORD LIPSTICK
Tom Ford lipstick is the essence of who I am. Slightly overdone, but exactly what you need.
My Tom Ford beauty experience began on a whim. I was a recent high school graduate on a self-confidence high looking to spend my graduation money on the most ridiculous things. This included a $55 lipstick.
That is right. $55 for a tube of lipstick. More than a tank of premium gasoline.
I fell in love with the texture, color, and scent of the "Spanish Pink" & "Blush Nude" shades. I wear Blush Nude almost everyday of my life. *trigger warning* I have over 14 tubes of Tom Ford lipsticks. Why? Because a beauty advisor once told me Blush Nude was being discontinued (it wasn't) sooo I drive to different Nordstrom the buy the tubes of it that each one had to stock up. That is how dedicated I am. YIKES.
For along time, I was anti-Ugg. I have no idea why, but the college life has hit me and I FELL in love with their recent slippers.
My bff bought them for me for Christmas (isn't she sweet) and I can not take them off. I have worn them everyday since I had them around the house. As soon as I come home I put them on. They are pricey ($100, ouch) BUT look out for sales/use your rewards at retailers on them if you can!
Honestly, when classes start back up, catch me in class with these bad boys on. You can not tell me anything in these. 🤩
SMARTWATER
I am the worst water drinker, ask my friends. However, when I do decide to drink it, this brand is one of the very few I like to.

I could type a corny paragraph about water, but you get it. It is good water, okay?!?!?! 😂 🤣 I despise Fuji, Deer Park, Dasani, and much more. Ahhh I digress.
But this is my favorite. 💧 💦
PRADA SUNGLASSES

I love designer sunglasses, but Prada remains #1.
They have an amazing array of styles for anyone.
Out of all the designer brands I have seen over the years, Prada is consistently on top in the sunglasses department.
Unmatched.
Price points have a good range as well. I have had some of mine as far back as 6 years now.
I blame my mom for loving Prada. She bought me for my 16th birthday a Prada wallet in my favorite shade of blue and just instilled the love for the brand in me ever since.
SLIP SILK SCRUNCHIES & PILLOW CASE

Silk. Pure bliss. My biggest excitement comes from 3 things and those are silk, cashmere, and face masks. Slip is a great company who is known for their silk pillowcases used by the biggest celebrities. Kardashians, Jenners, Drew Barrymore, Cindy Crawford, everyone uses this brand!
As I enter my 22nd year of life, I dabble in the infamous self care trend. I constantly worry about wrinkles, hair health, and bad skin. Unlike cotton, silk helps to retain moisture. Silk does not pull on your skin or hair either. So therefor, superior to cotton.💗
I have multiple silk pillow cases (all soft pink related of course), eye-masks, and the scrunchies as well.
My hair health has done a 360 since my freshman year of college, hallelujah. I would like to pay tribute to this brand for making that possible.
This is definitely a brand that is more an investment.
Hair ties are $40 for a box.
Pillowcases are $85
Eye-masks are $50
I really think this is a good way to bring joy in yourself. I am slowly working on that aspect of my life and I have been so happy having these little luxuries.
APPLE AIRPOD PRO

$250+ apple care? I was scared too.
I NEVER have been into wearing headphones.
Buuuuuut I like the hands free aspect of these.
I like how Siri reads my texts to me while my hands are safe and warm in my coat.
When in a large crowd, or simply taking the bus, I can flip them to noise cancellation and forget the world.
I can leave my phone downstairs while still on the phone with my family and friends.
Wireless charging gives me endless hours of use.
Everything about these headphones I love. They are significantly better than the regular airpods, the pros are worth every penny.
