Holiday Gift 2019

It's my favorite time of the year!
*cue the Christmas music*
Gift giving is upon us and whether you are finding a gift for a bestie, sister or a gift for yourself- look no further!

This year I've compiled a few of my favorite things that I have grown to love over the year. 
To give the best gift to someone all it takes is a little bit of thinking and a personalized touch. 
With all the gifts I buy for my loved ones I always try and think of something that the would absolutely love/need and write a festive note to go along with it! Remember, it doesn't have to be something big and flashy. A weekly planner or a comfy beanie goes a long way!


Pixi Beauty Eye Heart Palette

weekend by the river

Two weeks ago Danny surprised me with a trip to the Delaware river.
It was our first time in that area and we had a really, really lovely time.
Seeing the foliage pop this time of year and canoeing down the river was such a treat!

Here are a few snapshots from our weekend!

I'm trying to get back into blogging again so here it goes!

Here are so links and images to my favorite outfits this summer. Summer came and went and now we are in full FALL mode but before I start shooting/documenting Fall looks I thought it was only right if summed up my Summer first. 
 Shein dress

Bag from Colombia

Loeffler Randal slides


 Urban Outfiters dress

Jumpsuit bought in Colombia

Urban Outfitters dress
Nautralizer sneakers

So as you can see my favorites this Summer involved a lot of baby doll dresses and puffy sleeves. 
I'm such a Summer girl that even looking at these clothes again it makes me want to go somewhere warm soon. 

Nice to see you guys again,
Maria

Holiday Gift Guide 2018

It's that time of year againnn!
This is my 3rd annual holiday gift guide... and honestly this is getting funner to do each year.
Christmas is one of my favorite holidays- I love getting to spend time with my loved ones and picking out the perfect gift for them. It's something I take pride in and some of my friends would consider me to be one of the best. *takes a bow*

I'm sharing my top picks with you this year so that you can hopefully find the perfect gift for that special some one in your life or maybe just to treat yourself this holiday!

Here's some tips if you want to make a gift a bit more special:
1. Add a personalized touch by DIY'ing a card to go along with it 
2. Make your own gift wrap by using stamps, paint, or stickers
3. Spray the gift topper or tissue paper with your favorite scent

Hope this helps & Happy holidays!


Charlotte Tilbury has a great selection of luxury skin care and make up.
My absolute favorite is Charlotte's Magic CreamMagic Eye Rescue and the Gilded Goddess Kit.
There's a gift that will make anyone feel G L A M O R O U S!

If you don't know by now, I'm a big fan of Pixi Beauty and I have been featuring them since my first gift guide!
This year I'm sharing with you my favorite matte lipstick EVER.
Their Mattelast Liquid Lip is simply amazing and doesn't leave your lips dry. Win!

Also by Pixi Beauty their famous Glow Tonic is a favorite in the beauty community.
And the new Rose Tonic is quickly becoming my favorite!
Winky Lux launched 3 new eye palettes for the holidays and they are just dazzling!
I got my hands on their Royal Kitten Palette and I'm in love. Their Kitten Palette was the first eye palette I fell in love with and I found was so easy to use. 
Great gift for cat lovers and makeup lovers alike!


This is is the perfect gift for the make-up loving friend who is always going on Vacay.
 The packaging just screams beach time!
 The new Lip Vibes from Almay would make great stocking stuffers. With cute names like "Insta-Queen" & "Girl Boss" you'll be sure to find the perfect shade for your bestie!

The New Urban Decay Backtalk palette was one of my favorites this year!
Perfect for the person in your life who is obsessed with ALL things pink. *ahem me*
Why not a palette for the cheeks and eyes in these lovely pink hues? 
Sounds pretty perfect.
Skin Medica is perfect for the skin care lover.
The Night and Day serums are my go-to's when my skin needs a little TLC. 
This makes a perfect gift because it's great for ALL skin types! 
Flesh is a new brand that I'm really excited about and want to share with allll my girlfriends.
Breaking the boundaries of what the color "flesh" is considered... this new make-up line is all inclusive and sending out messages of self love and confidence to all women!
Check out their wide array products (like these Fleshy Lips) and you will be sure to find something for someone who wants to try something new!

Know someone who is always down to host a gathering?
I would suggest getting them copper housewares. 
They are perfect statement pieces and will catch the eye of any hostess with the mostest!
Found these at Kohls (they have amazing housewares!)- Copper Shaker and Tankard set 

Styling Tools- give the gift of good hair days!
I live by these two Amika: products. I have been using them for 2 years now and honestly I wouldn't use any other styling brand on my hair. I think any hair obsessed girl will fall in love with this hair dryer and hair straightener. I sure have! 

Stay tuned! I might be adding more gift ideas this week!
