February Wish List














Quick post...here is a small collection of things that I have been really, really lusting after lately, very spring-themed...pastel colors, fresh, healthy, and sophisticated.




1. Pastel Nailpolishes
Some sample lemming colors are Essie's Mint Candy Apple, Nubar's Lemon Sorbet, and American Apparel's Summer Peach. ToDieFor.


2. Tangle Teezer
After reading Nouveau Cheap's review of this product and realizing that we have practically identical hair types, I decided that I need this IMMEDIATELY!


3. Wildfox Brigitte Baggy Beach Jumper
Currently sold out on Karmaloop, what beauty junkie doesn't want this?! Also available in a bright coral if that's more your speed...


4. MAC Lazy Day Lipstick
This came out most recently in the To The Beach collection to the best of my knowledge, so why is it that I want it now??? Such a goregous coral take on the "your lips but better" shade!


5. Aquolina Pink Sugar
I've owned (and used up) this sugary-sweet scent in the past, and am dying to repurchase...especially since the scent is literally an aphrodisiac for my boyfriend! I recently saw the huge 3.4 oz. size on Overstock.com for a measley $26! I can vouch that the hair perfume is awesome, too!


6. EZ Pass
When you live in the tri-state area (where NY/NJ/CT meet, for those of you who don't know), you feel the pain of paying tolls to take major highways, cross state lines, and especially commute into/out of NYC. I recently moved back to the Westchester area (a born-and-raised Jersey girl at heart) after a five-year stint in south Florida and owning EZ Pass makes paying tolls super-duper convenient without having to dig around your purse or car for spare change multiple times a week!


7. Dry Scalp Remedy
Either I was living in blissful ignorance before, or my first real "winter" in many years has taken a serious toll on my poor skull! Gross as it sounds, my scalp has been suffering from tiny scabs, flakes, and some serious itchies. I don't want to go down the line trying every dandruff product on the market in sight, so if you have a good recommendation for a worthwhile remedy, please let me know below!!!


8. Tea Bag Organizer
Ever since my big health kickoff for 2012, I have acquired a great deal of teas to wholistically address different problems--sleeplessness, bowel movements, skin detox, and lots of other "good" stuff. This little acrylic guy would make it super easy to keep the various teabags visible and organized!


9. Cleansing Conditioner
I recently heard about Wen's stellar cleansing conditioners on various YouTube gurus' channels but don't love the fact that I can't go pick it up in a store...I guess I'm a bigger fan of instant gratification than I realized. I'd love to try it though, or maybe go for some newer drugstore alternatives, such as options by L'Oreal or Salon Grafix.


10. Best Glue Ever
Apparently, the name doesn't lie. This is renowned for making amateur nail artists look like Asian masters of the craft.



11. Contemporary Bold Graphic Bedding
My boyfriend and I recently bought a 1 bedroom co-op and are in the process of furnishing it before we officially move out of our rental apartment. We both love modern-yet-cozy interior styles and are in search of fun, bold graphics to dress our beautiful new soon-to-be-delivered white sleigh bed.
