My advice to you on lucrative piece splurging+Beat of the week

Lucrative basics

            Three pieces of advice I always remind myself about:

           

           1. Originality: Whenever I shop for that certain really high quality piece I research on that specific brand and for what it stands for along with its essence.  For example: when I look and think of Acne Studios I always am reminded of its versatile like aesthetic and I tend to look for jackets, basics, and sometimes even tennis shoes when I go on a dreamy-online-clothing-adventure.

          2.  Longevity: For me, the amount of years or even decades I’ll be using that piece that I’m trying to anxiously buy is an important factor because I don’t want to spend on something that I’ll end up throwing away in a matter of months. I want to look at that specific piece that I’ve been eyeing for about a month to make me happy when I see it, wear it, and hang it or fold it back into my closet until the day I die… I mean not until the day I die but you get the point.

          3.  Versatility: Depending on what you currently have in your closet also can contribute to what you splurge on. Will the piece that you’ve been looking at for quite sometime fit in with your other pieces in your closet? Will the neo-green Prada high heels that you’ve been eyeing fit in and coexist with your earthy toned wardrobe? Maybe yes, maybe no, you be the judge.

A holiday gift idea

What are you getting your loved ones for the holidays?

            As many of you may know, the holidays are approaching and for many of you it means vacation time! Or it might also mean “time to pull out the Christmas decorations again…” or if you're one of the few “O.M.F.G what am I going to get my mother in law for Christmas?" so you get the gist.

             I want to dedicate this post to the lost souls in this gift filled abundant holiday and so I came up with three essential but also lucrative pieces that would make an amazing gift for that special someone or loved one.

1.     Perfume/Cologne: Personally one of my favorites, I love giving away a scent because in a way you can describe someone by just a mixture of aromas.

·      Unisex: (depicted in above picture) Byredo GypsyWater

2.     Candle: You can never go wrong with a candle as long as the gift receiver doesn’t have an extreme allergy.

·      For my pick I chose Vanille from Diptique aFrench candle company. The candle both unique and aesthetically cute to look at is one of my favorites and I’m hoping to buy one for myself for the holidays, a little “treat yo self” gift.

3.     Watch: I feel as though a watch just brings up the level of sophistication for any outfit and that is why I incorporated it into the list.

·      For the longest time I’ve been admiring the Daniel Wellington watch’s and I just adore the whole design of them, the bands are also interchangeable which means you’ll never get bored of the watch itself.

And like always, here I have a playlist of my current music favorites:
