November 19, 2014

17 Comments

Happy Wednesday Lovers! I am officially freezing here on Long Island…the winter weather has arrived and with winter weather comes prepping for the holiday’s and how does Missy do that? By creating custom gift guides for you of course! If you haven’t seen my Tech Guide or my first Gift Guide check them out here + here! Today is time for another gift guide and this one is perfect for the leading lady in your life…whether it’s your boss, your mom, grandma, daughter, sister or friend…every gal loves a great quality fragrance or beauty product and Elizabeth Arden has got you covered…PS So do I because YOU can enter to win Elizabeth Arden’s newest fragrance ‘Untold Absolu’ below…read on for details :*Elizabeth Arden has been a brand and company I have longed to wear since I was a little girl. The fabulous packaging, sophisticated look and killer products made me beg my mom to purchase them so boy was I surprised when I attended the In Style Magazine ‘Celebrate In Style’ event in NYC a few weeks ago and discovered Elizabeth Arden’s newest products…looking stunning as ever.

Elizabeth Arden has two products I am currently obsessed with…1) The brand NEW Elizabeth Arden ‘Untold Absolu’ Fragrance and 2) The NEW Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick…both of which are perfect gifts for the upcoming holiday season. The new ‘Untold Absolu’ fragrance (which you can enter to win below!) has hints of fruity accents mixed with bits of Vanilla Bourbon and Cashmere Woods…all the scents and aromas one lusts after in the fall and winter months. Just imagine this fragrance staying on your nice cable knit sweater from a day at the office to dinner with the girls…long lasting and unique, you will instantly prompt ‘What are you wearing?’ from everyone you pass by! I swear it smells delicious…my kind of fragrance.Ok, so I am really becoming a fan of the ‘Red Lip’ for fall into winter. I was always convinced I ~~couldn’t~~ pull it off but this Elizabeth Arden Lipstick isn’t only adorable in it’s packaging (instagram worthy anyone?) but it is long lasting, not too bright and it doesn’t over power your lips…a concern I often have when wearing a colorful lipstick. The best part? This lipstick also moisturizes your lips…something every gal needs this season…moist, supple, kissable lips! So now is your chance to shop my favorite Elizabeth Arden beauty picks below…the perfect way to get a jump start on your holiday shopping!

Gift Guide Vol.2 – Tech Toys

November 12, 2014

4 Comments

Happy Wednesday Lovers! As the holiday season is fastly approaching I decided to share a little gift guide for one of the best gifts to give to any one on your list…tech toys! Every year my brother, sister and I always end up asking for some tech related item from our parent’s whether it’s for one of our birthday’s or for Christmas…we always want a gadget, headphones, a speaker or maybe even a case or accessory…the possibilities are endless and 9 times out of 10, anyone who receives one of these items are usually a happy camper 😉 (I know I always am)My go to tech must have’s? My iPhone 5s along with my Bose noise canceling headphones. I swear by these Bose headphones…they not only provide crystal clear sound and superior quality, but Bose has the best customer service I’ve come across in a while! I’ve gotten multiple headphones, speakers and sound essentials from them and anytime I had an issue or question, they answered it right away and provided excellent service.

And yes I have a love affair with Apple products…I know everyone always tries to plead their case on why a Galaxy or some other brand of phone is better than an iPhone, but hey I like my Apple products, they all sync perfectly and I have yet to encounter a virus or problem…that’s always a win in my book!

Leopard Lady…

November 11, 2014

Happy Tuesday Lovers! So I am freaking out because today I am going to meet one of my biggest inspirations and the only man who can make me laugh and smile on a daily basis…Andy Cohen! He is signing and promoting his newest book ‘The Andy Cohen Diaries’ at a local book store near me…I have butterflies and can’t wait to be a total fan girl and snap a picture with him for insta…hey if it isn’t on insta it didn’t really happen right? haha I digress…I had no idea he was heading to the Island until I was talking to my brother and I said the word ‘Mazel’ which my mom who was listening to our conversation right away responded with…speaking of mazel, Andy Cohen will be here tomorrow…love how my whole family is familiar with the WWHL logo 🙂While I still haven’t chosen what I am going to wear tonight to meet the fabulous Andy himself, I have put together a little leopard look for ya’ll today. Everytime I wear leopard I feel fierce…my animal instincts come out but don’t worry I always act like a lady…well sometimes…oops.I scored this faux fur leopard vest on clearance from Karen Kane at Lord & Taylor…while it was purchased last year, I found a similar one for under $30 at Forever 21 here. Whenever I wear animal print I like to keep the rest of the look neutral like I did here with my black dolman sleeve top (here) and my black pleated skirt (here).My black strappy sandals are the ‘Lavania’ sandal from Coach (available here) or you can shop them on my Poshmark closet here. Although sandals are traditionally for summer, I like to transition them into the fall as well (as long as the weather permits).So ok maybe I lied about wearing more than one animal print…I paired this leopard look with this Michael Kors python clutch…it’s subtle, chic and reminds me of a Stella McCartney bag (always looking for an affordable version of luxury items). My perfect fall bling? A signature black leather bracelet, like this one from Vince Camuto and a great ‘nailed it’ bracelet available for under $5 here! (Yes…under $5 people and it’s even blinged out!)I’m contemplating a side pony with a touch of leopard tonight for Andy…what do you guys think (anyone who loves Andy Cohen and WWHL as well as me knows how much Andy loves a gal with a side ponytail!)| Click To Shop My Look |

Mixing Moto…

November 7, 2014

Happy Friday Loves…or should I say happy feisty Friday! I’m feeling a little feisty today with my mix of leopard print and faux leather in this outfit post. I always associate moto jackets, faux leather and leopard print for fall…mix them all together are voila…today’s look is born!I wanted to make your Friday a little sweeter with a friendly reminder that you can still enter to win a piece from the Dora Landa NY collection (including this fabulous leopard print dress I am wearing here)…who doesn’t love the chance to win a gorgeous piece of clothing (that normally retails for around $200!) I know I sure do 🙂I decided to take this cute little dress and make it a bit edgy by adding a moto jacket (this one is from Karen Kane but I found a similar one from Blank NYC here). Instead of opting for heels…time to add a chic little bootie like this Nine West one here. I feel like this look is a mix of biker chic and girly girl…the best kind of looks in my opinion.My brown envelope clutch is from SuSu Handbags and is definitely unique and a must have for fall (shop it on Poshmark here). It’s an easy everyday clutch to hold your keys, wallet and lip gloss or you can dress it up with jeans, a blazer and pumps for a fun night out.I loved this shot with a few little roses (perfect for Melissa Rose…get it haha my middle name is Rose…a little fun fact about me!)| Click To Shop My Look & Enter The Dora Landa NY Giveaway HERE |
