Deux Lux

So today I decided to go shopping on my day off. I ended up go to M.A.C., Bath & Body, and T.J Maxx. While at T.J Maxx I came across a beautiful purse, but the best part was the wallet that caught my eye from the end of the aisle. Best of all it was a Deux Lux wallet! Deux Lux is only sold in a few boutiques across the country, online too, but is exclusive. I didn't even think twice about buying it!

Here are a few pics of Deux Lux  and their beautiful handbags and wallets.

The sun is peaking out....

Even though its winter, the sun peaks out here and there. Sometimes not strong enough to wear sunglasses, but I'll wear them even when there is no sun at times. My favorite thing to do when running errands is have my messy bed hair look, a little but of blush no other makeup on, and my sunglasses on.

 My favorite sunglasses to sport, aviators!

Top favorite videos...

Lately I have a few songs that I am in LOVE with! I'm into dance music and the mix with a instrument called Cimboi ( also known as a Romanian bagpipe), accordian, acoustic guitar, flute, and with the beat programmings, makes these songs stand out even more to me. 

The videos are quite beautiful too!

Happy Friday!

Have a great day & a great weekend! Today is my day to relax!

Anthropologie favorite picks...

Woke up this morning and decided to to some online "window" shopping. Anthropologie came through my mind & I decided to browse through the website. It had been a while since I've step into one of the stores or shopped online, but found myself coming across many things I want! Can't have it all, but ooh I love!

Here are a few snapshots I came across as I held my coffee mug in one hand and browsing with the other, beautiful Friday it is too!

Start of a new week...

It's Monday, I can't believe how fast this month has gone by. Most of you 

have the day off today, I'm here getting ready to go to work, but it's always 

nice when 5pm hits and I get to come home and relax the rest of the evening. 

Happy Sunday...

It's Saturday night and in bed already, left work sick earlier today. I'm hoping that tomorrow

I feel much better. I have a baby shower to go to, but not sure if I'll be going or staying in

again trying to get better. 

I wish all of you a happy Sunday and take the time to relax outdoors or on your couch, 

(hopefully more comfy than this one). 

Appreciate your day off or the hours before or after work.

Whats in your "medicine cabinet"...

You visit a friends or family members home and see a medicine cabinet when you go to their bathroom, do you peek or don't care? I use to peek but as I got older I realized I have no business looking. It is a curiosity thing yet private, time has changed, its not just a medicine cabinet these days, different things go in one now. Have fun with yours!

Here is mine, I'll share it, there is nothing that I wouldn't care if someone saw them.

Lotions, makeup, perfume, etc. 

no medicine.

Garnet is January...

January's birth stone is the Garnet, It symbolizes faith, truth, grace, and sincerity.

The name Garnet appears to originate with the Latin granatum malum which means pomegranate. 

My favorite! I love to eat these with lemon and salt mixed together

Victoria's Secret, my mother has a picture with a leather

jacket just like this one, I need one for myself.

Saw these on Bluefly, love the detail with the bow.

O.P.I nail polish my color for the month of January on my nails

Birthstone of the month!

I have decided that this year I will feature the birthstone color of the month each month. I will gather pictures to introduce the color in clothing, accessories, & gadgets that might appeal to you on your month, or better yet any month. For today I will show the color, meaning and name I will post in the next few days.

Stylish Office Space...

On Sunday my boyfriend and I are going to rearrange our office space and change them up to really go with our style. The desks we have is a pretty rich dark cherry wood, so no need to buy new ones. 

We both will have our own instead of one big one. 

So, I have inspired to go pick up a few accessories this week and these beautiful rooms might inspire you to add certain touches to your own.

1. Pier1 Gold Faux Crocodile frame
2. Flowers are always a must for a desk
3. Book box for accessories from dadcando.com
4. Pier 1 Beige Embroidered placemat for my macbook to sit on
5. Target Antique Bronze lamp
6. Pier 1 Bronze square ceramic sphere for papers.

My desk is pretty much the same color and length as this one.

                                                 This is the chair style I'm looking for!

Splash of Zebra...

I have never been a fan of animal print except for one, Zebra print. Even though i'm a fan of this print, I won't wear it, but my rooms can! 

About 2 months ago I started to put together my guest room in our home, and decided to add some Zebra accents to it. I think if your going to use a Zebra print, it shouldn't be to much, just a few pieces here and there. It will still make the room look fresh, functional, and classy.

Here are some beautiful rooms that can inspire.
