Fashion Wonderland

Tis the season to max out the credit card! The holiday months have arrived so here's to cherishing the fashion trends I'm grateful for...

Cat Eyes
Maybe winter isn't exactly considered the prime time to be indulging in gorgeous sunglasses, but how else can you fiercely shield your eye rolling during the family fun times?! Ever since Nicole Richie circa Simple Life in 2004, I've been a huge fan of the big sunglasses look. In fact, if there's one thing about those Olsen twins I can fully support (besides the flawless masterpiece that was Holiday in the Sun) it's their "bigger the sunnies, higher the cheekbones" style. Recently, I've totally fallen in love with the cat eye styled sunglasses but was apprehensive on how to pull them off. With this beautifully crystal studded Tiffany pair, problem solved. The shape is clear, yet subtle enough.

M.A.C. Liquid Foundation
Hola winter, aka the worst skin season ever. Need a nice stocking stuffer to clear up those flaws? This foundation is the perfect fix. I've never been a foundation user but this product has been like discovering magic. Take the smallest dab, spread, and bam! Sure, it made exfoliating a little scarier and truth baring. However, it gets the job done if you're really looking to clear up your complexion. 

Metallics
Instead of sticking to the basic dark colors, metallics are a great way to add something special to your outfits. The eye catching material easily sharpens up appearances. 

Bold Colored Peacoats
The pop of color trend that just won't die--not that I'm complaining. Hustling through the snow and wind in the city is not a fun, or glamorous, task. So while bundling up and trying to stay warm, I've personally opted for a red peacoat from Express. When feeling physically defeated, it's the easiest and most consistent way to up the appearance a little.
