Winter/Snow day Essentials!

This past month I've gotten quite a lot of snow where I live. I love winter time; snuggling up in front of the fire with a good book and cup of hot chocolate is my ideal snow day! Here are some of my winter/ snow day essentials!

These are two of my must-have winter perfumes: Taylor Swift Enchanted Wonderstuck and Burberry Brit. The Taylor Swift fragrance is filled with berry, floral, vanilla notes with a musky, woodsy undertone. It's a wonderful scent for both day and night. Brit is much stronger with notes of vanilla, mahogany, amber, pear and almond. Brit is definitely my go to fragrance for a night out!


 Winter days out in the snow leave my lip feeling cracked and super dry. I love the using the Nivea Lip Butter in Raspberry Rose Kiss to keep my lips moisturized. It's creamy texture isn't sticky at all which is something I look for in a lip product. The flavor is amazing too! My favorite lipstick this winter has been "Rebel" by MAC. It's a creamy dark plum color with a beautiful matte finish! 


Keeping your skin moisturized is so important in the winter. With the cold and wind outside and the drying heat inside it's easy for skin to become flaky and dry. To prevent dry skin I use the Aveeno Positively Nourishing Whipped Souffle on my body and the Clinique Moisture Surge for my face. The Aveeno cream is thick and creamy and leaves a smooth nourished feeling to your skin. The Clinqiue Moisture surge is a gel consistency and is absorbed so easily! I love that this cream doesn't leave any oily residue on my skin but is still so moisturizing.



My favorite nail color this winter is "A Affair in Red Square" by O.P.I. The rich red color with a slight shimmer is perfect for the winter season. Texting gloves are a must have too! These grey and black gloves are from Pac Sun.

And last but not least, no snow day is complete without a yummy cup of hot chocolate! I love the Classic Hot Chocolate from Williams-Sonoma (with marshmallows on top of course!)
