Jingle Bellllllllls!

I LOVE this holiday look book by Glamourista16, she is super adorable!  What are you guys wearing to your holiday parties?  I also really love how the video is shot and edited.  What do you guys think?  Share your thoughts below or send me a tweet so I can hear your thoughts!

Under the cuff? No, under the collar.

Today was an extremely mild day.  I can't believe how warm it actually has been for the past couple of days.  Over Thanksgiving it wasn't the coldest either, but it was a little chillier than it has been the past couple of days.  While I do speak the truth, I went to work dressed nearly for winter today.  I don't know why because I could have probably gotten away with dress capris, but this necklace seemed more fun to wear if I dressed it with a darker shirt for fun.  

I love the look of statement necklaces under collars, they just look so good.  I was unsure about how professional and appropriate an under the collar necklace would really be for the office but this one is perfect because although the colors are really bright, I paired it with a black top and a gem toned pair of green pants, which tones down and matches with the other green (the mint) in the necklace.  I should probably mention that I did pick this necklace up from Old Navy!

Have you guys ever been a fan of the bib necklace/a statement necklace for under the collar?  I know I'm obsessed and I probably wont be able to get enough, EVER.  I found the burried bauble on BaubleBar for today but I don't know if I necessarily want to take advantage of it, I might like the next one better.  If you don't know what I'm talking about, sign up for BaubleBar's e-mails so they can inform you when specials and deals are going on.  You don't have to pay for anything and they are a super adorable jewelry company that is full of fun statement pieces.  Thank you so much for reading today!  Send me a tweet or leave a comment below and I'll see you tomorrow!

My MINT Magic.

Please excuse any errors in this entry because I must admit.. I am listening to Timber by Pitbull and Ke$ha.  ANYWAY.  I had originally planned to post a video today that had an OOTD because I wore something adorable the other day to for shopping with some friends, but I've been having issues with my phone lately bringing my footage to the computer.  I really must invest in a nice camera to film videos with so that I can try and step up the production value on my videos and I do plan to do that.   Especially now that i have a job, I can make that purchase and I am so happy about it!  

So instead of being able to show you guys my outfit, I bring you my current obsession.  Every year around this time, I start to get obsessed with candy canes, naturally.  All year round I am a fan of the Eucalyptus Spearmint candle from Bath and Body Works, so I WOULD use the lotion.  I actually scored this lotion on a Black Friday sale and I couldn't be more excited about it being that I normally buy everything anyway so it was nice to pick it up at a sale price. 

The only thing ISSSS.. I don't know if you can see in the picture, but it is missing the spout part of the glass bottle.  I was trying so hard to open the bottle that I tried a little bit TOO hard and completely broke it off.  I am too obsessed with the lotion to bring it back so I am going to just use it and probably end up buying another one, like I always do with the ES scented stuff!  I love the lotion because of the therapeutic/relaxing smell and how soft it is.  As opposed to the other lotion that I have at my desk at work, this lotion is so soft when you apply it and it's like a small trip to the spa every time you use it.  Another thing is that this lotion is good for sensitive skin (on the hands).  I, of course you know, DO NOT trust anything on my face just yet.

Moving on to the next minted obsession are my Twisted Peppermint candles!  I love this scent and for probably about three years now, this has been in cahoots with the Winter Candy Apple scent for my favorite holiday aroma to have going in my room.  I can't decide which one I like more but I must admit that Twisted Peppermint might be beating out WCA just because it molds so well with my ES lotion and is so relaxing for the evening after a nice long work day.  I have two going here because the smaller one was almost done and fading fast, so I didn't hesitate to start burning another 3-wick.   

I won't be making any promises, but I hope that perhaps tomorrow I can have some sort of video up for you!  I really want to get some of my work outfit videos up so I can show you office chic, because it is so exciting to be able to bring my style into a professional setting and do it correctly.  I will talk to you guys tomorrow and I hope you are having a great day!  As always, you can leave a comment or send me a tweet if you would like.  Thank you for reading and I will talk to you tomorrow!  

Manicure Monday: Bewitched by Revlon.

Hi everyone, hope you all had a fantastic day.  So I have a Manicure Monday for you today that I'm pretty pumped up about.  I must be honest, I have a ton of red nail polishes and I didn't really need to go out and get another one but for some reason I was really in the mood for a Revlon red that I didn't have.  I know, shocking.  I have, I think, three Revlon reds in my collection but none of them were exactly what I wanted so I decided to go pick one up.

I hadn't purchased nail polish in a long time to be honest so i wasn't feeling extra terrible about this purchase, especially sense this is a drugstore polish and I already know I'm going to like it and get a lot of use out of it.  Revlon is always the way to go if you're looking for a great polish that will work the first time.  This is the first time I am trying the pictured top coat, but I have a ton of different polishes from Revlon that I love.  Normally, the first coat is pretty opaque but you guys know that I always do two anyway.  

This color is called Bewitched and I like it for a couple of reasons.  Reason number one is the color.  The shade is a gorgeous berry red hue that just looks so perfect on the nail.  I think this is just the right holiday color to wear on your nails in the office without looking like a big, bright red flashing lightbulb or a gold disco ball.  I think sometimes red nails can look a little tacky, especially in the office but I definitely think this is perfectly fine.

Reason number two that I like this polish is because I just love the formula.  The polish glides right on and basically dries in two seconds.  Granted, you are going to want to wait the ample amount of time after you apply polish, but this dries amazingly fast and it's not all over the bottle "FAST-DRYING," because those are the ones that usually don't work.

Anyway!  I hope you guys are doing well and enjoyed this Manicure Monday post!  Send me a tweet and let me know what you are wearing on your nails today or for the week?  You can always leave a comment below if you'd like as well!  Thank you so much for reading and come back tomorrow!

Intergallac...tic Black!

Hi everyone!  I had meant to post this yesterday but I ran out of time.  I've had this top coat for a while and have done some pretty cool stuff with it but I know that black as a base coat would probably look awesome so I decided to give it a try!

Thanks for checking out the blog today!  Send me a tweet and let me know what you think and what you've had on your nails lately!  Talk to you all soon.

Xoxo-Brit.
