Obsessions and Confessions....

I decided I'm going to be posting a series of blogs, which I'll be calling [Obsessions and confessions] hence the title. If you missed my first confession of the year. You can read it on the Current Life and obsessions post. I'll link it here

My current obsessions are earrings. Not just any earrings, I'm loving exaggerated earrings. Tassels, long beaded strands, fluffy long feather-ish looking earrings. I used to have a collection of earrings, but I grew bored of wearing them. & I got rid of all of them! Currently only have three pairs. 
These are some of my favorites I found on the inter-webs. 

I bought these on poshmark, because you know I love supporting small businesses.

You can purchase the Loved earrings on @Notbillionaire's poshmark closet.  To find tassel earrings on poshmark, simply search for them on the search bar. There are many, many options at affordable prices. 



I own these Sugarfix by Baublebar in Cobalt. Which by the way the Cobalt color is currently on clearance. Shop them here.

 The rest of the earrings are from topshop. I'll link them all for you to shop; I love them all.

My confession today, is.... My son is five years old, and we still use baby lotion for him. I just love the baby powder smell. Although, it might seem that I want to keep him as my baby. (Even though he'll always be my baby!) I am happy that he is growing up and becoming more independent as each day passes.  Also I still use scent free laundry detergent for his clothes!!!! As a first time mom, I made the decision to use scent free laundry detergent.  I didn't want his sensitive baby skin affected, if I washed his clothes with regular detergents. However it's been 5 years already and I still can't seem to make the switch! Am I the only crazy mother doing these things. I have managed to switch to kids shampoo from baby shampoo.  That's a start, right?!? Feel free to let me know in the comments about any recommendations for lotions you prefer for your children. 

Also he has not shown any symptoms of rashes, overly dry skin, or sensitive skin. 

Thank you so much for reading my obsessions and confessions!

Getting comfortable in my own skin...

This year I will be turning 30!!! Where and how that happened? I have no idea,,, What I do know, is that it has taken me a very long time to accept myself.  As a matter of fact, I'm currently still working on it.  Through the years I have struggled with learning to love myself.  Never completely content with my appearance.  Whether it was my teeth, face, features, body.  You name it!  In the past I have even contemplated getting surgery. What stopped me? The money of course! As well as the scary stories told by friends.  Which often times they hear from others.  Postpartum, I suffered from weight gain.  It took me years to loose the weight.  Even then, my body is not perfect.  Does that define me? Do my looks define me? Of course NOT! I know that; However that doesn't change the fact that I obsess over my weight, and constantly weigh myself. My point with all this rambling is, that it's never too late to learn to LOVE ...

Play! By Sephora September box...

This is a really late post/review for my Play! By Sephora box. I apologize but I have been swamped. School & life have been getting in the way. Adulting... amirite?(insert side eye) My first box arrived September 16. The second box arrived October 17. (I will be uploading the October box in a separate post) September box review: I was excited to open it, even though it's not an actual mystery box. (I also saw many posts spoiling the box contents) My favorite product is the perfume sample (of course, since I'm currently obsessed with perfume samples) check my searching for the perfect scent post here . The Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow Volumnizing Fiber Gel is also something fun for me to try. Since my eyebrows are light & thin. This is definitely a product I could be interested on in the future. All in all, I was content with the box. Although I'm starting to think that I may only keep the subscription for 2 more months. I'm not entirely sure yet. We shal...

Florals for spring, groundbreaking!

Spring break means spring has arrived. (& that my son got a week off from school) <help!> T o celebrate and to get some much needed adult time, I went out for dinner with friends.  I also wanted to secretly take my new purse "out to town".  I mean, what better way to complete an outfit, than with a "spring-y" bag.   I paired this beautiful  top with jeans and nude ankle strap low block heels. (Also, I previously wore this top for my son's 5th birthday party ). The top can be worn off the shoulders or as a loser relaxed shoulder style. (As previously worn) It features bell sleeves and is a perfect transitional top. These shoes are slowly becoming one of my fave pair. I'm a big fan of the ankle strap heel look, and the fact that these have a low block heel make me very happy!  I also love that the heel features a cork look. Yellow is such a fun color for spring.  It will brighten up your look and day.  My top is a ...
