Over the years I’ve learned that merely a change of curtains or an update to bedding (linens, comforter, duvet) can bring bigger welcome changes to one’s room than one would imagine. If you are on a tight budget or find it inconvenient to have your bedroom painted, give these two simple things a try first. …
Like Walking on a Cloud
I’ve gone back numerous times to my local chain drugstore just to pick up yet another Crescent’s World’s Softest Socks. Yeah, they’re really that nice =)! Hehe they honestly do give me that warm fuzzy feeling no matter what kind of day I may be having… *Photocredit: World’s Softest Socks
Pop Hairuwear & Hairdo
Pop Hairuwear and Ken Paves’ Hairdo make some of my most favorite hair extensions. I never would have imagined how much fun styling my hair could be =). I even love my Crayola Color Hair Flair Clip-Ons in funky bright colors like neon pink and sky blue from Rite Aid! Also check out Rickys NYC. …
Life-Savers: Bookends for Heavy Duty Standards
My husband found these bookends online for me. They are a real gem of a find too because I was using regular metal bookends (which can be purchased at Staples, etc.) for my shelving. Honestly they didn’t work out too well due to the large number of binders I keep and were also less appealing …
La Fiorentina Fashion Phones
For Christmas I received a cute and useful pair of black earmuffs + headphones from my husband’s family. I really like them =)! Not only do they keep my ears warm, they also allow me to listen to my favorite songs on-the-go. The description states they are compatible with any standard 3.5mm jack socket. They …
Salpy, Pretty! Pretty!
Salpy brand makes the prettiest shoes; however, it’s VERY expensive at regular price. I waited too long and missed the Salpy sale at Simply Soles =(. The Larita style reminds me of higher fashion clogs and mules, but are described as slides or slip-on heels. At one point Simply Soles stocked, navy, black, and pewter …
Round A Belt
While walking around The Container Store one Saturday, I lifted my gaze and spotted the perfect belt organizer to suit my needs. It was the Round A Belt organizer by Evriholder Products LLC. I wish I had known about this holder years ago! I normally wear belts to adjust my jeans but over the years …
Vox
I love pens but not quite this much… I admit it’s a gorgeous case for an avid collector of writing instruments… P.S. I do love Mount Blanc, Cross, and Parkers (not quite the same, I’m well aware, but no matter)! *Photocredit: Pens & Leather
Leather Backpacks
Many years ago when I first began my graduate program, I carried a very handsome and dependable Perlina black leather backpack. I remembered one snowy night, quite like today, I decided to walk home rather than to wait for the bus (which was uncharacteristically delayed). The backpack had survived my walk through the harsh weather …
Other Noteworthy (Luxury) Planners…
My three favorite personal size planners other than those by Filofax are from Anya Hindmarch, Kate Spade, and Louis Vuitton. They are a bit pricy (some more so than others) but if you are a serious planner-keeper or “Filofaxer” looking for something a little different, you can consider these a worthwhile investment that you’re bound …
