Lately

Elin Hilderbrand novels are my guilty pleasure and I read Winter Street in about a day

My sister gave me this monogrammed tote for Christmas which is my current go-to for running errands

The mild winter weather has allowed for afternoon runs in these pants

I've been logging an embarrassing amount of time in these jammies (now on sale)

All in all, "too much of a good thing is wonderful"

This is the cutest little itty bitty crossbody and I am in love! Totally reasonably priced at $195 and certain colors are on sale. It goes against my natural proclivity to bring lots of little things out with me in my bag. It is just big enough for a wallet, phone, and lip gloss. Now I just need to choose a color. I'm debating between green and black. Hmm what to do?

Lash Lengthener

via

I've been using a lash serum that I love called Grande Lash. It's a clear serum I apply nightly to enhance lash length and it works! I started using it at the beginning of September and have waited to post about it. Admittedly, I am not someone who's big into beauty products. The last time I posted on makeup was when I got Gypsied at the YSL counter. Nevertheless, I have always curled my eyelashes and religiously used mascara. I love big full lashes so I took the plunge and purchased Grande Lash as a little experiment. I saw that it was working within the month but wanted to wait until I had some unsolicited feedback that confirmed my belief. A few people have now commented on them and my stylist asked me who does my eyelashes when she was cutting my hair. She actually thought I had eyelash extensions! SUCCESS!

If you're interested I would highly recommend this product. I pair it with a great mascara and love the results. My two go-to mascaras are Dior Blackout and YSL Shocking.

I'm really happy with this little beauty secret so I thought I would share with you all.

Happy Tuesday!
