Today is a beautiful ice day here in Dallas. The temps changed over 50 degrees this week- just craziness I tell you... I thought I would share a couple of my recent beauty purchases that I am now obsessed with.

If you follow me on Instagram you know that I am a hoarder of many things- especially curling irons, flat irons and hair dryers. Well my friends those days are over. I recently purchased a Babylis hair dryer and my hair is forever grateful. My thick, fine, curly hair is now smooth and shiny and the ends aren't splitting with every use. Worth. Every. Penny.

 Yesterday I went to the dermatologist (my favorite doctor to visit!) because my Rosacea has been really bothering me. She recommended I use Cerave moisturizer and I have to tell you in 24 hours my skin feels almost 100% healed. Miracle worker in a tub for $18.

 One last product that I am now also hooked onto is Blinc Mascara. I LOVE this product for everyday use- it doesn't coat your lashes like regular mascara- it tubes them and is SUPER easy to remove. Now it doesn't give you lashes that look fake but it gives plenty of coverage for everyday use and when you wash your face at night the tubes just wash away so no dark eye circle.

I am not good at keeping secrets. Anyone who even kind of knows me knows that you should never tell me anything that is not shareable (and if you don't know me you have been warned for when we do become friends, ha!) I have known a pretty big secret most of the year and with that being said, we found out at the beginning of the year that we would have a BIG addition to our line packages this spring with the release of Kate Spade stationery and gift. Now I feel like Kate and I have been friends for a long time- I own a black nylon bags, wallets, moved into black and white stripes with her and really feel like this is a brand I identify with season after season. This week the collection is going to be hitting the stores and it is really awesome to get to see how excited everyone is for it! All of the collection is actually pretty affordable and I think brings a big bang with it's price point.

One of my favorite lines that I sell is Karen Adams Designs. She does an amazingly beautiful calendar that we sell so many of sometimes I am sure every person in Dallas must have one. During the New York Stationery Show in May she released a series of Cabana Striped notecards that just make me happy. I love the bright colors with the sweet sayings in gold foil... really anything gold foiled wins my heart these days! I love cards like these because they are perfect to write a quick note but they could also work as a birthday card or thank you or congrats with just a couple of lines written on them.

Newest Obsession

{Some of my favorite flower pins from pintrest}

I am sure that many of you have caught on to the latest "it" site for social media- Pintrest. I love love love Pintrest. It is such a great place to get ideas and find inspiration. When it comes to wedding planning and "seeing the big picture" it has been extremely helpful! There are so many helpful and useful blogs out there that we are all now connected to through Pintrest. I also love Pintrest for recipes, fashion and home decor!

In Love...

I spent a lovely (rainy) weekend in NYC for NYIGF and I fell in love with- Macrons. We went on a food eating mission on Saturday night in the Lower East Side when we made our 3rd stop (I believe we made 6 food stops that night) of the night at Bisous Ciao and sampled 6 different- all amazing. Lemon was hands down my favorite but Raspberry was a close second. Now that I know about these little amazing treats I have to find an awesome place in Dallas- any suggestions for a wonderful french bakery?

Things I Need...

I love all things Diane Von Furstenberg and naturally when she started to release tech accessories I would instantly be attracted. I love this ipad cover. It is super chic and completely functional and would stick out in anyone's LBB (large black bag).

Slightly Obsessed

I am slightly obsessed with the Gold Body Oil from Niven Morgan. Chances are if you were in Atlanta and came through the showroom I made you spray it on- and then you had to hear me talk about my obsession ( I apologize but not really bc the stuff really is awesome) It makes your skin feel like silk and Gold is one of my all time favorite scents! (Buy the Gold candles as well- you can thank me later!)
