Review: BoxyCharm Oct. & Nov. 2016

Hey Guys,
Today I'm going to share my thoughts on the October and November BoxyCharm boxes. I decided that I am going to cancel Ipsy because it just doesn't excite me enough to keep getting it. I signed up for BoxyCharm because it seems like you get way more bang for your buck. For those of you unfamilair with BoxyCharm, its another monthly beauty subscription like Ipsy. The difference is that you receive 5 FULL SIZED products each month instead of samples. The subscription is $21.00 a monthly and like Ipsy, they have featured products each month that everyone gets, and then other items that are varied from customer to customers. Check out my video below to see what I got in my first two boxes. Keep reading to see my thoughts on each product!

Holiday Gift Guide: 88 Handbags*

Hey Guys,
This year I am going to do something a little different for my holiday gift guide. Instead of focusing on beauty I am going to focus on fashion. Also, Instead of listing a bunch of different products, I am going to feature some new brands/companies that may not be as known to my readers. Today I am going to talk about the brand 88 Handbags. I did a post about 88's Natalie Block Tote back in the summer which you can check out HERE. 88 Handbags is company that sells vegan handbags and offers them in a large assortment of different styles, colors, and shapes. They also offer extended straps on some of their bags for plus size women. 88 offers affordable and reasonable prices on their high quality handbags.  They also donate a % of each sale to a charity called Care International that assists in education women around the world. 88 Handbags would be a great holiday gift for any woman. Check out the video below where I talk about some of their bags and give some details on each!

Ash & Rose Boutique

Ash & Rose

Hey Guys, 
Today I wanted to share more info with you on a unique local boutique located in the SoWa neighborhood of Boston's South End. For those of you hearing of Ash & Rose for the first time, I recently uploaded a Fashion Haul where I talked a little bit about them and about a project I was working on with them. You can check out that video HERE. Just to give you a background on the company, Ash & Rose is owned and operated by a mother-daughter duo Nea and Mary Savoca. Nea is also the designer of their A&R private label collection. I had the pleasure of meeting Mary and learning a little bit about the company. They started of as an online store then opened up in their current location about a year or so ago. All of the items in the store are ethically made. Many items are either made in the U.S.A., eco-friendly, or vegan. I found these things really unique and also really great! Below I wanted to share some pictures I took of the shop. Keep scrolling to check out this adorable boutique and all that it has to offer!

One thing that I noticed about all of the pieces at Ash and Rose is that they were all excellent quality. From clothing and outwear to jewelry, handbags, and other accessories; everything looked carefully made down to the smallest details.
