“Gifts for Guys”
Splendid Mills. The perfect gift for a male… whether he is a boyfriend or your best friend. Comfortable, and not too expensive. If your sick of doing jewelry or cologne… the next best thing would be clothes — and what guy wouldn’t love a comfortable piece of clothing suitable for everyday wear!

Bright thread wraps these Hoist + Lee necklaces in a brilliant spectrum of color. Ranging from bibs to earrings - the mesh and thread on each piece evokes a feeling of power.
A stunning statement necklace piece true to its name. Perfect for a winter vaca get away!
“A Good Deal”
A pair of faux suede platform booties featuring a lace-up top with high polish accents. Under $40. No excuses.
“Meetings.io”
I thought this new website was pretty cool, and may revolutionize the way we meet with people - whether it be with a teacher, with another business, or for an interview with your dream job.
With Meetings.io you can meet face to face with anyone from around the world within your web browser. Meet with a client, a customer, your project team or your co-workers in person without ever leaving your desk by simply creating a tiny meeting room link and sharing the link with anyone you want to meet with.
You can re-use your meeting room as many times as you want and you can have people drop in and out of the your room anytime. Because there’s no sign ups or user registration needed to drop into a meeting room you can use Meetings.io as an online hangout for real time in person hangouts or as a telepresence system to attend meetings remotely.
Could this possibly be the the next big thing?

“What to Pack”
Thanksgiving break might be your first trek back to home in awhile. Turkey Day vacation offers the perfect amount of time to catch up with your family and high school friends… and of course exchange all those pieces of clothing left at home, for the things you don’t need.
Here is a list of what you can pack for home, what to leave at home, and the trends to bring back to school!
To Wear At Home: One light jacket. There’s no need to bring home your cutest bomber jacket, military style parka, AND trench coat — just pick the one that goes best with everything.
Just one or two pairs of jeans, & leather pants?
A nice casual dress. It’s always fun to have an excuse to get a little fancy. (For me, I’ll probably stick to a dressed up sweater and leather pants.)
A cute pair of sweatpants, or lulu’s… something casually cute to hang with home friends.
A cardigan. - Or sweaters to layer with.. Chances are you’ll have a lot of catching up to do and you’ll need easy outfits.
To Leave At Home: Summer dresses. Or anything that is pastel, floral, or patterned. (New clothes for a new season!)
Sandals. There’s no chance you’ll be rocking strappy footwear in the middle of January.
Denim cutoffs.
To Bring Back: Scarves galore. Nothing makes the chilly walk to your 8 a.m. class more bearable than a big, cozy scarf. (gloves, hats?)
Boots. If your parents offer to do a little shopping before you head back to school, boots are the perfect necessary splurge.
Graphic sweaters. Oversized, retro prints are the sweater trend for fall, so raid your mom’s closet for awesome pieces from the ’80s.
Winter coat?
AND…Leftovers. If you can find a way to keep them fresh on your return trip, stock up! Your roommates will thank you!!

“Tis The Season for Dark Everything”
In a gloss, stick, or balm - dark lips are the hottest makeup trend this fall! Try pairing it with jeans and a sweatshirt to liven up a casual day, or with leather shorts and a blazer for a night out! Whatever the occasion, the dark shade adds instant glam to your look.
Different colors work better with certain complexions… Try some of the ones I mentioned below!
1. Shideido laquer rouge in drama
2. Nars pure matte lipstick in Amsterdam
3. YSL glossy stain in violet edition
I am an identical twin with an insider's perspective when it comes to the "double take." With the perfect outfit and a twin sister in hand, you can somehow always notice a few! Everything I blog about is either my own creative outlook or inspirations from my favorite bloggers... Enjoy!
