Christen's 10 Favorite Things

Everybody has specific things fashion or beauty items that they love. I'm not talking about the cute shoes you bought and wore a few times. I'm talking about your favorite jeans that you've worn so many times that they have a hole in them but you love them so much that you can't throw them away. One pair of my Calvin Klein sandals are falling apart but I can't seem to part ways with them because I love them so much. Now, I do have them in another color but I'm still throwing them out. When I find something I really like, I'll buy it in multiple quantities and every color so I will have enough for the future. 

Enough of my rambling, here are my top 10 favorite intimates, clothes, shoes, and beauty products that I will buy time and time again. If any of these get discontinued, please check on me.

Winter 2018 Must Haves Under $75

We are smack dab in the middle of winter and temperatures throughout the US are hitting record lows. This may a be a little late but we had to come to y'all with the must-have items for winter.  Got to make sure our readers are keeping warm all while serving a look. Keep in mind you don't need these exact items. You can adjust them based on your personal style. 

Velvet Puffer Coat || Oversized Blacket Scarf ||  Sweater Dress || Black Jeans || Fur Robe Coat || Sock Boot || Patent Boot || Over The Knee Boot

1. Blanket Wrap Scarf - This is the winter accessory you most def need and the bigger the better.  It's the drama you need to add to a boring outfit. Get creative with it like Lenny Kravitz. 

2. Sweater Dress - The perfect cute and cozy thing you can wear this winter is a sweater dress. Pair it with your favorite boots. We recommend a sock or OTK boot. 

3. Skinny Jeans - Jeans are perfect for the winter and every other season honestly. But quality denim will keep you cute and warm during these low temperatures. 

4. Puffer Coat - A puffer coat is an absolute must. They come in a bunch of different styles, shapes, and lengths. Also, they can be fairly inexpensive so you can experiment with trends in your puffer. 

5. Statement Coat - Your outerwear is the most important part of your wardrobe, in the winter so why not make a statement? A statement coat will add that oomph to any outfit. 

6. Ankle Boots - Ankle boots are a wardrobe staple and you probably already have some in your closet. But incorporate more trendy styles this season trends with patent, bold colors, and metallics. 

7. Over The Knee Boots - Outside of outerwear, your footwear is the next most important thing you need for winter. Over the knee (OTK) boots are another staple.  OTK can be dressed down with jeans or glammed up with a skirt or mini dress at for a night.
