1. The lob
So, quite much the very best haircut ever! I saw somebody with it on Instagram someday last summertime as well as understood I had to try it. It’s basically an a-line shape, somewhat shorter in the back as well as longer in the front. great method to go shorter with your ‘do without having to go full-on short, if that makes any type of sense. You get the feeling of having short hair without actually…you know, having to chop off most of your hair.
2. Oribe dry Texturizing Spray
BAH! perfection in a bottle, however why does it have to be so costly ($21.50 for a little 2.2-oz. bottle)?
ΔΙΑΦΗΜΙΣΗ
You can utilize it as a dry shampoo, to lift your roots, to add volume, or just as a light hold hairspray.
Really, the only thing it doesn’t do is address the meaning of life.
OK, well, I’m exaggerating…a little.

Anything as well as whatever you can picture for your house/apartment/igloo/condo — they most likely bring it, at a steeply discounted price.
It is SO fun. every time you go you’ll discover adorable stuff.
4. The MAC Brooke Shields Gravitas Palette

5. Laura Mercier perfect Fluide Foundation
For me this is the. Καλύτερος. foundation available right now. basically a Hogwarts-caliber makeup miracle, as well as I like it so much that I would have a full-on breakdown if Laura discontinued it.

9. The Progressive Wedge & Pop apple slicer doohickey
One of the (many) things I got at HomeGoods this year. It’s just this thingamabob that cores your apples for you, all nice as well as neat.

10. Gamma Ray computer Glasses!
Yet one more thing I utilize daily. El Hub got me these one nice, random day to assist my eyes, which ache sometimes from hours as well as hours of staring at the computer screen.

But they definitely assist my eyes.
11. Kate Spade Studs
I will permanently keep in mind 2014 as The Year of My Kate Spade Studs ($38). I started using them earlier this year, as well as they’ve quite much ended up being the only earrings I want to wear.

They’re likewise offered in different colors, go with virtually everything, as well as when I wear them, I don’t have to concern about Tabs swatting at huge ol’ dangly hoops.
