Nail Polish for New Years Eve!

Hi everyone! I hope all of you had a great Christmas! (Or Hannukah or Kwanza!) Now we all start to think about the ball dropping and the new year beginning, so I have brought to you my favorite nail polishes for New Years Eve! Enjoy!
The first one is "Sparkle- Icious" from Opi. From faraway, it looks like a shimmery bronze color, but up close, you can see flecks of bronze, yellow, pink and blue. This would be a gorgeous color to wear and sparkle is always a go-to on New Years Eve.
(Opi Sparkle-Icious, $8.00, www.opi.com)
 
I love this color from Essie. It is called "Butler Please" and is a beautiful royal blue color. I love this because it is so unexpected and it will make your nails stand out in a crowd.
(Essie Butler Please, $8.00, www.essie.com)
 
Now I know that Hot pink is very expected, but this one from Butter London is spectacular! This is in the color "Primrose Hill Picnic." This color would be perfect for going out with friends and then going to watch the ball drop. It shows that you're not afraid of bright colors and that you can totally rock them.

I hope you all enjoyed this post and that you like my ideas for great New Years Polishes! Have a great day! Bye!

Last Minute Holiday Gift Guide! ❄

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a little while, but it's ALMOST CHRISTMAS! I'm so excited to spend the holidays with my family. Today's blogpost is a Last Minute Holiday Gift Guide just incase you still need to buy a little gift for your friend, mom, sister.. etc.
Look at how cute this bracelet is! It's from Baublebar and it is rose gold colored. I love this because it's very dainty, but still has lots of sparkle. I also have been loving the rose gold trend so this would be a great gift to give to any girl who loves accesories.
(Rosegold Disco Wrap, www.baublebar.com, $22)
This is the travel sized roll bottle of the Marc Jacobs perfume. Travel sized perfumes are a great thing to keep in a purse or in a makeup bag while travelling.  This is a very popular scent and it's a very sweet smell, this would be a perfect gift to give to the perfume-loving ladies.
Daisy by Marc Jacobs Rollerball trio, www.sephora.com, $38)
 


This is a less expensive gift option if you just need a small gift or a stocking stuffer to give to someone. These socks are from Bath & Body Works and they are very soft and snuggly. They are fused with shea butter and have tiny grips on the bottom to keep you from sliding. They come in lots of holiday patterns and prints, but I personally like these because they could work year-round.
(Red Striped Shea Infused Socks, www.bathandbodyworks.com, $7.50)
 
The last gift idea I have is to Make It Yourself! The internet is jam-packed with cool DIY gift ideas and I reccomend www.pinterest.com because this site has got the coolest, niftiest, most original craft ideas I've ever seen! Check it out and I'm sure you'll find some great gift ideas for everyone on your list.

Weekly Loves- Twilight, lotion & Chex Mix?!

Hi everyone! Sorry I am behind on my weekly loves post- again! But I am here now to tell you about my favorites of the week! So lets get started!
I just saw this movie and I absolutely LOVED it! It was definitely my favorite one in the whole series! I won't give any spoilers, but I have to say I was so suprised by it! I definitely didn't expect what happened.. If you haven't seen in yet, you need to! It was simply incredible.
 
I recently bought this from Bath & Body Works and I love this lotion! I know Sweet Pea has been at B&BW for a while now, but I just smelt it for the first time and it smells so good! The scent is very sweet and has a strong floral smell.
(Sweet Pea Travel Size Body Lotion, $5.00, Bath & Body Works stores and www.bathandbodyworks.com)
 
Ok, so I know this a little strange for a weekly favorite, but I have been loving this Chex Mix! It is chex covered in peanut butter, chocolate, and powdered sugar (so practically puppy chow) and it is so delicious. It is very sweet and is a great treat.
(Chex Mix Muddy Buddies, $2.88, Walmart)
 
I hope you all had a great weekend and that you enjoyed this post! Bye!

Hi everyone! As you can probably tell from the title of this post; We've changed our name! No specific reason for changing it, just think CC Fashionista will fit the site better. However, I will still continue the same fashion, beauty and Weekly Loves posts as I did before. Thanks for sticking with me! Our new web adress: www.ccfashionista.blogspot.com

Winter Essentials!

Hi everyone! So sorry I didn't post at all this week! I have been super busy and went on a small trip for my birthday, but now I'm back and ready to blog! I saw on elleandblair.com they had a Winter Essentials post, so I decided I would make my own! So here it is! 
This first look is just comfy-cozy for winter. It features a slouchy, oversized sweater, black leggings, an infinity scarf, brown leather lace up boots and a brown leather cross-body bag. This look would be perfect for cold days where you want to bundle up (but stay cute!) before leaving the house for some errons or a cup of coffee.
(Beige Long sleeve Deer print Loose pullover sweater, $32, www.sheinside.com, Lysse Leggings Black leggings, €56, pamelascott.ie, Start with the Basics Scarf in Mustard, $25, www.modcloth.com, Taupe Faux Leather Lace up Fold over Combat Boots, www.pinterest.com, Brown Vintage Shoulder Bag, $41, www.udobuy.com)
This second look is a little fancier than the first look. It features a sheer, button down shirt, a pair of black jeans, suede black heels, a red shoulder bag, and a gold heart ring. The red purse adds a fun, unexpected pop of color which is adorable! I wouldn't say this is a full on party look, but you could wear it to a dinner or even to a day at the office.
(A.L.C. Gillian Blouse, www.farfetch.com, Maison Martin Margiela 1 Womens Five Pocket Jeans, $438, www.ln-cc.com,Giuseppe Zanotti Suede Exaggerated-Platform Slingback Black, $750, www.bergdorfgoodman.com, Chanel Quilted Red Leather Hangbag, www.chanel.com, Gold heart ring, $40, www.jcrew.com)   
 
This last look is edgy and girly at the same time. It features a lace cream, belted dress, a brown leather jacket, brown leggings, heeled boots and a velvet red clutch. The dress topped with a leather jacket has a very cool feel and is an alternative from the typical sweater.
(Love Milly Cream Sleeveless Lace Dress, www.awear.com, Leather Biker Jacket, $398, www.levi.com, Woolrich Womens Holly Spring Leggings, $59, www.woolrich.com, Brown Leatherette Chunky Heel Mid Boots Shoes, $63, www.udobuy.com, Karen Millen Satin & Suede Clutch, $99, www.karenmillen.com)
 
I hope you all enjoyed this Winter Essentials post! I spent a lot of time and had a lot of fun making it! What are your Winter Essentials? Bye!
