Nike Free 5.0 v4 Sneaker

Since I have been going to the gym and doing Pilates every day, aka "Sweating For The Wedding", I have been really amping up my gym fashion game! I needed a new pair of sneakers and when I came across these, well I mean hello.... I had no choice they screamed to me- I had to have them! 

Introducing the fabulous Nike Free 5.0 v4 sneaker! These shoes offer the strengthening benefits of barefoot training but you don't have to sacrifice the underfoot protection or traction of typical athletic sneakers. These give great support and are super comfy. And on top of all those great features, they are cute as could be! I always love a good cheetah print, don't you?!

Urban Decay Lip Junkie Gloss

I am always on the search for a new lipgloss- I must have hundreds- but when I came across this fabulous lip gloss by Urban Decay, I had to share with you all: Introducing the Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lipgloss! 

This decadent lip gloss has a fabulously delicious vanilla-mint flavor that I adore. And unlike lots of other glosses, Lip Junkie allows you to get all that shine without the sticky hangover. If you want a super-shiny gloss, but can't stand the sticky texture, then Lip Junkie is definitely for you.  The soft and smooth texture stays put much longer than other glosses.

The key ingredient, Maxi-Lip™, plumps the appearance of lips an average of 40% when used daily for a month. (Lip Junkie uses non-irritant plumpers, unlike other glosses that use stinging ingredients to inflame your lips.) The Maxi-Lip actually helps your lips become better defined, super-hydrated, and full.

My go-to shade for this gloss is Midnight Cowboy- a fabulous sheer sparkly nude that is beyond amazing over some of my favorite lipsticks.

What do you think? Do you love a glossy pout? What is your favorite lip gloss? Let me know in a comment on this post!

You can purchase the Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lipgloss at Sephora.
Retail Price: $19

Tinted Love Shellac

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Obsession

I can never get enough of the Neverfull bag by Louis Vuitton. It is the most perfect bag for anything and everything, comes in an array of colors and special edition prints, and best of all - it is super durable and perfect for every day wear.

I got my first Neverfull (LV classic print, MM size) about 5 years ago now. It immediately became one of my favorites and my go-to daily bag. I loved it so much that about a year later I purchased another! This time the Damier print in GM size. This bag, although a bit too large at times I will admit, has also become a staple. It fits SO much inside, and I love the contrast of the red interior, such a fun pop of color.

Next, because my love affair just couldn't end, last year I had a custom LV made for me- Mon Mono. This bag Is actually one of my favorite purses in my entire collection, I love that it was custom made for me and that no one else has one! The amazing blue stripe, monogram and stunning interior really make this bag stand out. Check out my post on Mon Mono here: Fab-YOU-lous: Mon Monogram Louis Vuitton Neverfull

I just purchased my fourth Neverfull last weekend, and of course, I continue to be obsessed. This is a print that I have wanted for quote some time- the Damier Azur. I purchased it in the MM size, which is what I've found to be the most practical and best size for day to day use.

The one deterrent for me, which is why I waited so long to buy it, It that the bag is super white both inside and out so I am being crazy careful because I don't want it to get dirty!! I know that the leather canvas is super durable on all of my other LV bags, so here's hoping that my new baby stays white!

What can I say- I love myself a LV Neverfull! Always have and always will! Do any of you fashionistas have Neverfulls? Which color and size? Let me know in a comment on this post!
