Holiday Wish List

Its never too early to begin a wish list for the upcoming holidays! And with Nordstrom's amazing holiday gift sets, I've been in the spirit since early October :)

1. Makeup

I am loving the YSL Rouge shine formula, So I'd love a few more in my stocking, like No.48 (plum) and No.49 (Rose St. Germain). You also can't go wrong with this trio of glosses from YSL so add that to the list. Finally, I'd like this concealer from Cle de Peau, which I can't buy for myself with its $70 price tag. When the baby arrives Ill need the best under eye concealer money can buy.

2. Body

Who doesnt love Kiehls? I would love the large size of this body lotion which is worth every penny of its $48. My pregnant skin deserves it.

3. Accessories

On the daily, I lug my LV never-full, and I really do love it. But I'd like a new tote for 2017, with a more palatable price tag, like the Tory Burch Perry Tote in a fresh color like navy. Id also like another gold bar necklace with our new son's name engraved, like I have for my Tuck.

In My Bag

I've parred down what I tote around on the daily, since I'm also carrying multiple snacks, hot wheels, and at least 1 box of crayons at all times (the joy of having a 5 year old!). My essentials include my Louis Vuitton wallet, Marc Jacobs sunnies, Tory Burch mirror and business card holder (gifts from my hubby), and a few beauty items which I rotate periodically. Currently, I'm loving: 

YSL Oil In Stick in No. 47 'Beige Blouse'

Mac satin finish in 'Faux'

Clinique Chubby Stick in Roly Poly Rosy

Clinique intense lipliner in Sassafras

Tory Burch's roller-ball perfume

Nars gloss in Dolce Vita

Nivea balm for all day hydration underneath any lipstick

City Work Wear

City Work Wear by christina-villecco 

On bitter cold New York days in January, I find the days commuting to client appointments and meetings in the city to be a challenge. Between the windy train platform, the slushy subway stairs, and the whipping wind coming off the water down on Wall street as I head to my office its entirely too difficult a day for a fancy heel. So I opt for flat riding boots, tights, a different dresses layered over a classic white oxford shirt. The look is still pulled together, yet also practical for the elements and the schlepping around town.
