Sweet Little Nothings

Bon Weekend!

This weekend, I’m doing a major fall cleanup around the apartment and attempting to restart my fitness and clean eating regimen (wish me luck). In the mean time, I just wanted to share a few things that are making me smile as of late. Enjoy!

Faux Fur Collars

The weather’s finally cool enough to break out my stash of faux fur collars. They’re really the best way to add an instant touch of glamour to any ensemble.

Ralph Lauren Cableknit Sweaters

Ralph Lauren Cableknit Sweaters! I’ll admit, I’m a little obsessed. This is only a sampling of my collection, and I try to add to it every year. The navy blue number on the right is the latest addition to the family.

Silver Polisher

Polishing my much-neglected silver jewels is a necessary chore. Luckily, I picked up these Carbona Wipes at the grocery store that makes the task a bit more bearable.

Lanvin Knee High Boots

My new Lanvin boots have already made their debut on the blog, but I love them so much I have to highlight them again. I’ve been wearing them NONSTOP for the past few weeks since they’re the perfect blend of style and comfort.

Yardley Baby Gentle Soap

My skin was starting to freak out a bit with the weather change, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and find the gentlest soap (with NO SULFATES) possible. I’ve been using this Yardley’s bar (followed up with a teensy bit of coconut oil) for the past week, and I’ve seen an immediate difference.

Sweet Little Nothings…

This weekend, I’ve made absolutely ZERO plans! Instead, I’m hoping to clean up my entire apartment from top to bottom and catch up on some reading. In the mean time, here’s a visual highlight of things that made me smile this past week…

As I scamper off for a short and sweet weekend getaway, I thought it would be fun to do another round-up of things that are making me smile as of late. Happy Memorial Day weekend, peeps!

A vintage Coach purse (in mint condition!) that I thifted for just $40.

Trying out a few products from Kiehl’s to help keep my oily skin at bay.

Becoming completely addicted to Sally Hansen Insta-Dry nail polish.  This stuff WORKS, and is great when I need to do a quick and dirty pedicure before stepping out of the house.

These funky-soled sandals from Forever 21 that are surprisingly comfy for having such a high heel.

Daydreaming about redecorating my apartment and creating my wishlist from the CB2 catalog.
