Happy almost 2018! 2017 was such a great year for me professionally and personally. In the blogging world, I really felt like I was able to take my blog to the next level this year. I have loved writing and posting more consistently and I have been so overwhelmed by your responses. You all have been THE BEST, so extremely supportive and motivating me to keep going, so THANK YOU!

Once I finish writing this post, I’m going to jot down a few things I’ve learned, a few highs and some lows from 2017, then look forward to 2018 goals. I always like to reflect on the year and make sure that the next is even better. Do you do the same at the end of a year?

I love styling outfits and have found a bunch of great pieces in 2017 that I will take along with me into 2018. Below are some of my absolute favorite purchases in 2017.

MOST LOVED LAYER:

This Blank NYC leather jacket has been my favorite purchase all around! Its such great quality, price point and perfect fit, I’ve been wearing it wayyyy to much! I also absolutely love this suede moto jacket. Both a staple in my wardrobe.

BEST INVESTMENT PIECE:

This Gucci belt has been so incredibly popular on social media and I can see why! It really makes any outfit come together and adds the perfect finishing touch.

MOBILE MUST HAVE:

I’m on my phone a lot, and my battery used to die around 5pm everyday. It was so frustrating to find a charger or have a dead phone on my hands. This Mophie case has been life changing! Its a bit heavy, but to have a charged phone all the time makes it worth it.

WARDROBE STAPLE: 

Because every girl needs a cute off the shoulder sweater, this one is perfect. I love the neutral color, the looser fit and material. Such a classic, sexy, effortless look.

IT BAG:

 This Cuyana bag was a gift from Jeff, and my most used bag of the year. For an evening look, I have been using this Rebecca Minkoff bag over and over again.

DREAM FIT DENIM:

 I have been really into high waist, crop denim with a distressed hem. These Paige jeans are the PERFECT fit. I have bought them twice because I love and wear them so much. If you are looking for a blue denim, this pair has been another favorite this year.

FITNESS FAVE: 

Hellloooo favorite leggings! These are my most worn pair, along with this Nike crop sweater.

BEST BASIC: 

A white tee is a must have, and Ive actually bought this one in many colors. It’s under $20 and such a great fit.

COZY UP: 

I have been lounging quite a bit, especially with the holidays in full swing. These sweatpants have been perfect. I’ve actually been wearing them year round since its a bit cooler here in San Francisco. They are soooo cozy, the perfect pair of comfies.

PRETTIEST POUT:

 I’ve finally found my perfect lip combo. I wear this Marc Jacobs Le Marc Lip Creme in Sonic Truth + Poutliner lip pencil every single day, I love it! I am a big fan of lining my lips and this shade is the perfect neutral. The lipstick is nude with a light pink tone, my favorite shade of all time!

SHOE CRUSH:

How to choose just one?! These Steve Madden heels have been a lifesaver. They go with EVERYTHING year round! I also love these nude pumps and these over the knee boots.

BEST BAUBLE:

I also received this David Yurman bracelet as a gift from Jeff, but I would definitely purchase on my own. I wear it daily, its such a classic piece of jewelry that I will wear for years.

MOST WORN ACCESSORY:

 I am a big hat person and this fiddler cap is one of my favorite purchases. I’m sure you’re sick of seeing me wear this one 😉

LASH GOALS:

Hellooooo voluminous lashes! I am obssessed with this velvet noir mascara. It adds sooo much volume I haven’t found another mascara that even compares.

HEALTHY LOCKS:

So many products are used for a good hair day, am I right? If I had to choose one, this Oribe Texturizing Spray has been a must have. Ok, If I had to choose two, this Alterna treatment oil would be my next recommendation. I can’t live without it!

2017 SCENT: 

I have a bunch of different perfumes, but my favorite this year has been the Jo Malone English Pear and Fresia. Its refreshing, energizing and will most likely be wearing it into 2018.

 

Happy New Year friends!! Love you all! xo
