CHOOSING THE RIGHT PURSE Starting at the top with a popular brand that is expensive, but well worth their product is the Birkin bag by Hermès.This brand is known for the quality of their bags and it’s also a status symbol of class and wealth. These bags embody luxury and have to have a limit on how many a client is allowed to purchase in a year. This reason is to preserve the exclusivity on the collections this company has with a value increase of 14% per year. This handmade leather is not all the same price and ranges from $9000 to almost half a million. Specified bags have different prices and escalate depending on if exotic skins were used. These bags have so much value, but the variety and sizes of these is what makes this brand so popular and used to actually be one of the rarest handbags you could recieve. On the other hand, spending this much on a purse seems overboard to some, but the numbers don’t lie. Now let’s get to the details of how to really choose a good purse:
4
Selecting the right handbag is a crucial accessory to looking stylish and appealing. When picking out a purse, how it will be used and what it’s being used for is something that needs to be taken into consideration. Handbags are very versatile, but matching them with more than one thing can be challenging if they aren’t neutral. When hand-picking a bag you need to consider whether it’s going to be used as an everyday work purse, an evening bag, an event, or used only once or twice. Work styles are more functional and practical yet continue to be outstanding if you pair the purse with the right outfit.
1.Investing in a high quality bag is crucial because it will be used
and thrown around. This quality will matter futurely helping it stay in tact and looking brand new after years of using, so spending a little more will actually save you money. Bags may be expensive at some times, but it’s a main accessory to any and every outfit no matter what the location.
2.
Choosing leather is the best option due to the fact that it ages so well. Purchasing this will make it easier when trying to clean it if it gets dirty. This product is one that looks even better as the years go by and is the reason why people love it.
3. Make sure the bag you get is a structural handbag, it’s the
best type to invest in. After a long day of wear and tear the bag will still be in the same, beautiful format because of its fine structure. The last thing you want is a saggy purse, so opting for a sleek structure bag will guarantee you a longer lifetime condition.
4. The color matters more than you think. The color black is one
of the best colors you can get because it will coordinate with almost every outfit. Fun, crazy colors aren’t a bad idea to purchase because you need more than just black, but choosing out neutral shades will be helpful.

10 BEST SHOPPING SPOTS FOR
BLACK FRIDAY
Everyone’s favorite day/night of the year is Black Friday. Unbelievable deals like this only come once a year! When going shopping on this day, it’s like going hungry grocery shopping. You never go along with the list that you made and the budget ends up getting thrown out the window. If you’re doing black friday the right way, you’ll create a schedule before the day even starts, this consists of making a list of the things you’ve been wanting but can’t get yourself to buy full price, researching what stores have the best deals for those items, and figuring out what time each store opens. Making a “must have’’ list and a “just want” list is also not a bad idea, especially if you’re ballin’ on a budget. Even so, making a list helps you get the main idea of how to search the store accordingly and quickly.

TARGET
It’s no secret that target has been poppin’ off in their apparel section, but it can get pricey. This is the perfect opportunity to get a variety of items in one place, they have all sorts of makeup brands, skin care, hair products, you name it. Getting your day to day things from here at a lower price is helpful futurely since you aren’t paying full price. Target also has amazing deals when it comes to electronics, if you’re looking to buy a gaming system or games to go with it, this would be the perfect time to purchase a nice christmas gift! This store is usually up to maximum capacity this time of the year therefore, trying to be there early will definitely lend you a helping hand to get first dibs on all the best items.
Altar’d State Altar’d state also has amazing deals, if we’re being real $75 for a skirt is ridiculous, but the quality is just so good. So for all you vsco girls out there, make sure you check out their sales! When trying to find a nice gift for a woman or maybe even for yourself, purchasing items that promote quality beauty or enhanced quality material will make their eyes sparkle. It is the store with all the glitz and glam that any girl at any age dreams for. With black friday, you can snatch the perfect dress for the holidays at a price you won’t believe. People with think you spent a fortune, but really you didn’t pay full price (they don’t have to know that though).
A pro tip: Try going
to your favorite stores a couple days before, sometimes they start the deals early plus you dodge all the lines and crazy, sleep deprived people! Some people out there take this day of shopping seriously and can get aggressive, it’s best if you try to scout your items out before they get taken. Figuring out your size for garments is a way to assist yourself efficiently. Doing so means that you are not having to go through the hassle of returning back to the store to find the right sizes for you.

Men who like to get the nicest of colognes can also purchase wonderful sets as well. You can even buy two sets feeling like you saved more money than you ever have in the cologne department. But what Macy’s really has to offer for all ages and sizes is deals on clothes that you’ve never seen before.

TIMBRLAND
For people who live in areas with an actual winter, there’s no more perfect time to escape. Unfortunately, warm vacation destinations prices are usually at their highest during this season. But if you know how to avoid the typical tourist traps, you can get to a beach and enjoy it, without taking out a loan. From the Caribbean to the Gulf Coast, here’s where you should book your winter getaway so you can soak in the waves and the heat while your friends shovel snow.

TROPICAL VACATION SPOTS FOR WINTER
Key west, FL
One of the most popular places to vacation, is Miami. But vacationing in Miami comes with all time high prices. So do yourself a favor and travel just south of the city, to not so well known, Key West. While the Keys suffered destruction from Hurricane Irma, Key West has been rebuilding quickly. Grab the signature seafood sandwich and hang with the locals at the Hogfish Bar & Grill. A travel tip: Fly into Fort Lauderdale instead of Miami for significantly cheaper flight, since you’ll likely want to rent a car anyway to get yourself down to the Keys. You can find round-trip tickets from New York City for as low as $151 around this time, around $200 from Boston and Chicago. Even nice hotels can be reserved for around $200 a night during high season
Galveston, TX
You might consider Texas best for barbecue and blues bands. But locals pointing you to a beach will recommend Galveston Island, just an hour drive from Houston, on the Gulf Coast. Its 32 miles of shoreline off both nature, including lots of cool birds, as well as live music and parties. In the winter, the temperature is moderate compared to the heat Texas experiences most of the year. Flights into Houston in winter go for under $200 from New York, for around $100 from Boston and Denver, and even less from Chicago. Hotel rooms go for around $100 or even less per night.
Myrtle Beach, SC
Don’t overlook the Deep South for a sandy getaway when it’s getting too cold to stay up north. Myrtle Beach has all the typical attractions of a beachside town (boardwalk, ferris wheel, golfing, ice cream with temperatures in the high 50s and 60s). And you can munch on some true Southern cooking while you’re at it. The best part? You can practically steal round-trip tickets for around $100 from New York, and get them for around $200 from Boston and Chicago.
“A vacation is what you take, when you can no longer take what you’ve been taking”
Sarasota, FL
Sarasota is a long way up from the Keys but the city is located on the Gulf Coast. It has some of the most crystal clear waters and white-sand beaches you’ll see in the United States. While the town itself may seem dull, it is marked secretly with great restaurants and hangouts—and even better deals. Round-trip flights can be found for around $200 from New York and Boston, and for around $400 from Chicago. Hotel rooms go for under $200.
Half Moon Bay, CA
One of the world’s most challenging surfing spots, Half Moon Bay’s becomes insanely, challenging in winter, when waves can get as high as 50 feet. In conclusion, casual surfers will want to leave those waves to the professionals. You can watch their brave attempts during the Mavericks Challenge competition held around November and March, depending on when conditions are right. Other nearby beaches, bluffs, and forests, such as the Purisima Creek Redwoods Preserve in the Santa Cruz Mountains, supply additional chances to appreciate the area’s stunning coastal beauty.

LETS TALK ABOUT SKIN CARE Skin Care Advice and How To Lessons Having great skin doesn’t come easily and sometimes you have to work for it. Skin in general is sensitive and has to be taken care of gently and cautiously. Your daily habits play a huge role on your skins reflection and learning to notice those bad habits can help keep your skin healthy. When caring for your skin, it’s more personal because everyone’s skin type is different from others. One of the first steps to taking care of your skin is to make sure you’re receiving enough hours of sleep. Getting good, restful sleep is an important factor to healthy skin because rest helps rejuvenate skin tissue. Clearing the mind before resting is helpful like powering down your cell phone/electronic use before because this can contribute to how you sleep. You may not know this, but the type of food you eat and the drinks you consume can be the cause of breakouts. This can be a huge reason on why your skin may be reacting badly. Here are some categories of foods and parts of the face it effects: Dairy: Eating a lot of this can cause breakouts around the chin so if possible, limiting the amount of yogurt, milk, ice cream, cheese etc. will help with not breaking out a lot around the chin. Junk Food: Every now and then, splurging on the food that is the worst kind may feel so good that you fall out of a healthy diet. In reality, it’s worsening your body and skin silently because high glycemic index products cause hormone levels to spike, which alters the quality of oil, potentially causing breakouts. Carbonated Drinks: Soda pop and other high-sugar beverages can damage the formation of collagen, the connective tissue that helps skin firm. Trying to change your unhealthy drinking habits into consuming a lot of water will be one of the best things you can do. Staying hydrated gives your skin the ability to flush out your system of toxins, keeping your skin clean. Rather than clogging your pores, water will factor into pushing out bacteria giving you a more radiant glow. It’s always best to try to stick with eating whole foods, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains rather than a lot of trans fats, sugars, white flour and fast foods. Implementing a healthier diet can clear and benefit not just breakouts, but your body as a whole. This makes you feel more energized maintaining your health, leaving you to feel good about being in your own flesh. Your skin will ultimately look and feel better if you have a more balanced diet. Starting your day off right begins with cleansing your face with a gentle, non-toxic cleanser as well as at night when it’s time to go to bed. Doing so, ensures that breakouts are less likely to happen. It’s vital to get the right cleansing product for your specific skin type. If one has more of an oily skin type, then you want to use a dry cleansing face wash that will help reduce the amount of oil your skin produces. On the other hand if you are fatal to dry

This perfume is perfect for a girls’ night out or whenever you feel like you need something bold and different.

It is a beautiful blend of green tea, bergamot, jasmine, freesia, rose, and orchid. The base of this Viktor & Rolf fragrance is what makes it so unique.

Even its gorgeous bottle will look chic on your dresser. If you love the smell of patchouli, this classic fragrance is for you.
Tom Ford Black Orchid For all you ladies who like strong, musky smells, Tom Ford’s Black Orchid will be your holy grail scent. This one’s a blend of black truffle and ylang mingled with a little bergamot and blackcurrant. It is not for you if you like light, subtle smells. You only need to apply this sparingly as it goes a long way, even on a hot summer day. Be careful not to over-apply this.
