8 Most Worn Things Tag

Hey guys!

I was recently tagged by TheParisianPout to do the 8 Most Worn Things Tag and you can see her responses here.


1. Most Worn Lipstick/Lipgloss
I have way too many lipglosses and lipsticks, so of course I had trouble only choosing one.

L-R: Revlon Ginger Rose, NYX Femme, MUFE N50 (I think this one is discontinued)

I think these are pretty much my primary go-to colors although I have a few others. NOT pictured is Mentha Lipshine - I usually use this to top of a lipstick I want to tone down.


2. Most Worn Earrings
Seeing as I don't wear earrings that often, I'm putting my most worn RING. I actually never take this off. I got it from Tiffany as a graduation gift from my bubbe. I absolutely love it and think it's classically chic, yet fun at the same time.


3. Most Worn Top
Summertime for me is the time to wear dresses every single day, so considering the time of year it is, I am showing my current favorite dress. I got this from H&M back in May for around $13 I think. I am actually wearing it right now as I type this. It's super cute for my super petite figure (5 feet or 152 cm). 


4. Most Worn Nail Polish
Again, so hard to choose just one! These are the ones I seem to come running back to more than others. I have so many nail polishes that I don't wear one more than the other I think.

L-R: Essie Big Spender, ELF Moonlight, NYC Chelsea, Essence Walk of Fame


5. Most Worn Shoes
You may recognize these from my Recent Purchases post. I did buy these not even two weeks ago, but they have become my most worn shoes already. I'm in love with these. Rien à dire.

(Urban Outfitters 2/$20)


6. Most Worn Hair Product

Frankly, I do nothing with my hair. I wash/condition it in the shower and let it air dry. I do not dry it. I do not straighten it. The only products I use are Tresemmé shampoo and conditioner, and my brush. I don't find it necessary to include a photograph of these items.


7. Most Worn Perfume


At this point, I'm just trying to use up all the old bottles of perfume I have so I can get one big bottle of my favorite perfume for everyday. The first purple bottle is Mariah Carey - it smells nice, I just don't like her. The next one is Black Amethyst by Bath & Body Works. And below is Paris Amour by Bath & Body Works, which I do like a lot and hope to get more of for my birthday this Friday.


8. Most Worn Bag/Purse
This is my beloved Longchamp that I waited in a long line at Galeries Lafayette to buy last summer. In the US, these cost around $120 at Nordstrom and I got mine for 69 euro which is definitely cheaper. If you like this bag and you know you'll be in France, get one in France!!! 

I can't wait to get another one the next time I'm in Europe. This is my favorite bag. Fashionable, classy, versatile AND it fits my 11 inch MacBook Air!!! :)


Now I tag:

Some Recent Purchases

Hey guys!

I have been quite a busy woman lately, but I have had a little time for shopping. So getting away from makeup and going more towards FASHION - I'll share with you what I got!

Sadly enough, about two weeks ago, my favorite mall in town had major flooding and part of the roof collapsed after a hefty summer store. I had to wait almost a week after I had initially intended to go shopping to get some shoes at Urban Outfitters, although they had no damage.

My roommate (for college) had suggested Urban Outfitters for shoes because I needed just some everyday kind of shoes for walking all over campus. I don't buy shoes very often, and usually it's just a couple pairs of cute flats from Target that work with any outfit so I don't have to worry.

This time - cotton Mary Janes! My mom said she used to wear these back when she was young and so I guess it was cool for her that her daughter is wearing the same kind. These are just the ones that are made in China and have that rubber on the bottom with the Chinese writing.


These are 2/$20 at Urban Outfitters, so I bought 4 pairs to start off with, but there is an UO in the town where my college is that is right across the street from campus so I can walk to it. I'll maybe by some more.

They are SOOOOO comfortable and super adorable, so I would definitely recommend them.

NEXT - earrings :)

I have mentioned how much stress my family is under at this time and what not and I will get into more details later, possibly, but during this past week, retail therapy was indispensable.

My aunt wanted to go to Dillard's and turns out they were having a major sale on earrings, so I went ahead and treated myself because I don't buy earrings very often, I don't have many pairs, and I'm going to college, so I need new things. Right?


So I got four pairs. Who could say no to Givenchy on sale for $13? I mean really?! 


I also got these, ($5 I think) but I was wearing them when I was taking the pictures. The stud that I'm wearing in my second hole is a pair that I got last year at Francesca's but they're pretty crappy - all the metal has oxidized and they hurt my ears.

And some more retail therapy was to be had at World Market. I LOVE that place! They have an awesome selection of everything, accessories included!

My aunt treated me to these two scarves :)


These will definitely come in handy when I want to make a fashion statement while suffering in the cold weather (cold is better than this hot and humid weather I'm having where I live!). 

So since I've never really done any fashion posts before, I hope you enjoyed that. If you want to see more about fashion or OOTD's, please comment and let me know! I would love to hear your feedback.

Thanks again for reading and supporting :) It means so much to me!
