Y’all know how much I love my tags so of course I had to do the Winterlicious Tag! If you’re unfamiliar with this tag then first, where have you been? Second, definitely head over to YouTube after this and check out some of my favorites do this tag.

Now, let’s get in to it.

1.      Favorite winter nail polish? Anything red! I wear a lot of dark cranberry and maroon colors during the winter. Right now I have on Red Carpet by Sally Hansen, it’s a true red shade with glitter- perfect for the holidays! Also, Field of Greens by Wet n Wild is a beautiful green glitter polish with flecks of gold. I’m wearing that on my accent nail.

2.      Favorite winter lip product? Caramel Crème lip butter from Nivea! It makes my lips smooth and soft and it smells AMAZING! It’s the perfect winter scent and it protects your lips.

3.      Most worn winter clothing piece? Oversized sweaters and my fleece vest from L.L. Bean.  I love being comfy and warm and I’m a sweater junkie! They’re so easy to style so they work with just about everything. My fleece vest is so warm, I love pairing it with my red flannel.

4.      Most worn winter accessory? SCARVES. I have a bunch of scarves, in many colors and I still can’t stop buying them. Especially blanket scarves- so cozy!

5.      Favorite winter scent/candle? Favorite scent to wear in the winter is Sensual Amber from Bath and Body Works. It’s a warm, musk scent that just makes me feel so comfy. I love darker scents all the time but specially in the winter. Candle- Twisted peppermint! Perfect holiday scent!

6.      Favorite winter beverage? Caramel Brulee frappes from Starbucks. Dear Lord, those are delicious.

7.      All time favorite holiday film? Home Alone, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, A Diva’s Christmas Carol aaaaand The Nightmare Before Christmas. Perfection.

December Style Spotlight

Nicole Guerriero

November and the beginning of December were absolutely hectic. Preparing for finals, writing papers, finishing up projects all while having like five mental breakdowns a day can really wear you down. Ah, the joys of being a college student. But, now that that’s over with, let’s get to my pick for December Style Spotlight: Nicole Guerriero!

Nicole is a YouTube beauty guru with amazing style- seriously. Girl rocks a top bun like no other *insert hair flip emoji*. Also, can we just take a moment to appreciate her brow game? Cause it’s strong. With her ever-changing style and electric personality, Nicole’s videos are a pleasure to watch. Her tutorials and “get ready with me’s” are fun and easy to follow which makes following along a breeze. I’ve followed a number of her tutorials- especially the hair tutorials (seriously, can I just have a fraction of your fabulous-ness?).  She explains things in a way that’s easy to understand and tells you about the products she’s using in order to give the viewer a complete inside look into what’s happening. Nicole has an intense collection of lip products, a girl after my own heart! When I’m in need of some new products for my collection, I go to Nicole, it’s like she’s my beauty bestie.

I can already tell you I plan to recreate some of her looks for the holidays. Her obsession with all things glitter comes in handy quite often but especially around this time of year when you want to glam up your look. Definitely check her out!

Because quite frankly I'm tired of hearing about them.
When you tell someone that you're not interested in getting into a relationship you're often met with disbelieving looks and someone saying "oh honey, that'll change."
Like...no.
The last thing on my mind is getting into a relationship, I don't how many other ways to express that. So now, I'm going to list a few of the reasons why relationships are not high on my "to do list."

1. I'm too busy.

Okay, I know how that sounds but seriously, I run out of energy faster than my character on the Kim K Hollywood game. I'm already stretched ten different ways with class, extracurricular activities, my business, and trying to fit in time with family and friends all while trying not to lose my head. Adding in a significant other just doesn't fit into my schedule. Whenever I see free time, that turns into "me time" which means= nap time. 

2. I'm focused on other things.

I have a dream career, a dream house, dream vacation spots, and more. One thing that's not on my mind is finding a "dream spouse." Literally everyone around me does nothing but talk about being in a relationship, getting married, and having children- which is fine...for them. I'm only 21, I have plenty of time to worry about finding the "right one." As for right now, I have other things on my mind, like working towards my goal career. Some want to focus on their future career and that special someone- more power to you! Do what makes you happy. I have other things on my mind and that's totally okay.

3. I'm just not looking for a commitment.

Finding a man is not on my list of "things I need to do." Now, not being interested in commitment doesn't mean I have commitment issues, I'm just genuinely not interested in boyfriends. This is not one of those "I'm a strong independent woman who don't need no man" situations. I'm a truly difficult person to get along with. I'm selfish, opinionated, sarcastic, impatient, stubborn, and slightly neurotic. My personality is for those with an "acquired taste" and I understand that it's going to take some time to find someone who I can stand to be around for longer than five seconds and vice-versa. To be honest, I've never been one for relationships. Even in cases where I've had "crushes" it was mainly me forcing myself to "like" people just so I would have someone to talk about when my friends got into one of their "boy-crazy" moods where they did nothing but talk about potential boyfriends. Even regarding those I actually thought I was interested in- I wasn't. I just don't feel a romantic attraction to a lot of people and that's totes cool. 

4. I kind of hate...everyone.

Now, this isn't some attempt to seem like one of those people that are like "omg I hate everyone because I'm super cool," like no- get out. I just can't find anyone that doesn't make me want to poke my eyes out with scissors. Everyone that I could have potentially been interested in lose their appeal after five minutes. I'm honestly really picky, and it only takes me about two seconds to find something wrong with someone. Like is it that hard to find someone that enjoys Doctor Who, horror movies, and Marvel? Yes? That's okay, I'll wait.

5. I'm perfectly content with the single life.

Seriously, I'm good. People are always under the impression that just because you're single that you must not be happy, as if the only way to be happy is to be with someone else. I can't tell you how many times someone will say something along the lines of "when you get into a relationship you'll understand," or "being in love is so much better," or some other bullshit about being in a relationship. Let me break something down for you: I'm perfectly happy being by myself. If I was that interested in a relationship I would be in one. I like the freedom of the single life, there's so many things I want to do before I worry about finding a partner. 

Seriously, If I have to hear another comment about being in a relationship, I'm going to spontaneously combust.

6. My true love is Netflix and YouTube.

Seriously, I can binge watch a show like nobodies business. I can finish a series extremely fast, like embarrassingly fast. Also, I'm addicted to YouTube. Why date when I can spend hours watching Hannah Hart on My Drunk Kitchen? So unless someone's gonna come sit with me while I watch a marathon of Scandal or Game of Thrones- it's gonna be me and Netflix 4Ever.



Hello lovelies!

With the holidays rapidly approaching you're going to be invited to many different types of holiday parties. A popular theme is "Ugly Christmas Sweaters" or "Tacky Christmas." I've already been invited to about three already and Christmas hasn't even happened yet. Last night was the end of the year Christmas party for my cheerleading squad at my college and we had an ugly Christmas sweater contest (I won!). So, I decided to show you all how I made this Christmas tree sweater. It's really simple and it's an easy and cheap way to create a fun sweater for your holiday parties.

What you'll need:
Green sweater (I got mine from Walmart for $6)
Safety pins
Tinsel (I got mine from Dollar Tree)
Huge Bow (Again, Dollar Tree)
Tiny bows (Dollar tree)

How to make your sweater:
1. Lay your sweater out on a flat surface
2. Cut your sweater down the middle. This step is optional, I wanted to make mine into a cardigan but if you want a full sweater, don't cut yours. 
3. Lay out your tinsel in the direction you want it be. I laid my tinsel in a diagonal direction to give it a Christmas tree vibe. I also alternated between colors.
4.  Begin to pin your tinsel down, one on each end of the strand. Since mine was a cardigan I had to cut mine in sections. 
5. Pin your tiny bows in between the tinsel strands like tree decorations. This could also work with actual ball ornaments.
6. Pin your big bow at the top near the collar. This serves as a tree top! This doesn't have to be a bow, it could be anything you want to top your tree sweater with.

And you're done! Now you're ready for that tacky Christmas party. Deck those halls!
If you recreate this or have your own original creations send them to me! I'd love to see what you come up with.

Also: If you're wondering, the red and green Christmas hair bow I'm wearing came form Target.

Makeup:
Eyes: Naked basics pallet
Mascara: Make Up For Ever Smokey Extravagant
Brows: Elf Brow Kit
Liner: Maybelline Line Stiletto 
Lips: Rimmel London Kate Moss lipstick in #10

It’s that time of the year ladies, the holidays are approaching and fast. Time to put down your gingerbread latte from Starbucks and pick up a hot glue gun because it’s time to get ready for the Tacky Christmas Party you’ll inevitably be invited to. Time to prepare yourself and get to work crafting the perfect tacky party ideas because, just because the theme is “Tacky Christmas” doesn't mean it can’t be cute. Here are some fun ideas to help you get ready for your party.

 1.    “Holla” if you love Christmas.

2.  “Bow” down. *insert hair flip emoji*

3. "Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree.”

4. On Dasher, and Dancer and Prancer…”

5. Wrapped to perfection.

6. Tinsel Town

7. Channeling your inner Frosty.

8.  Ornament headbands are all the range in the North Pole.

9.  Rudolph, the red-nosed top bun.

10. Hobby Lobby’s gonna be running low on green tulle this year but it’s so worth it.

Bonus: Tacky Christmas Lever: Expert.

Hope these can spark some inspiration for you at your next Christmas party. The only star in the room won't be on top of the tree, it'll definitely be you *hair flip*
