Well, back to reality! What luxury items are you lusting over for this new year?

A fun fact you may not know about me is that I am an avid watch fan! Maybe it stems from my years working in a watch retailer, but there's something about a classic timepiece that I find captivating. I actually have quite the collection (21 watches to be exact), but I'm always looking to add to my stash with the latest and greatest styles. Here are three watches that are catching my eye this season.

The Carry-All That's Easy To Clean:  If you're like me and you squeeze your gym time in between college classes, than an easy-to clean, easy-on-the-eyes backpack is a gym essential! Opt for one that is nylon, which is almost impossible to ruin with sweat and grime at the gym. It will keep your belongings safe and still add to your athletic appeal!

The Patterned Player: Everyone knows that black clothing is your best bet for a slimming effect, but don't forget to incorporate some fun pattern into your gym get-ups. A bright pattern will keep your spirits lively and will add the perfect touch of pizzazz to your workout regimen.

Ok ladies, we've all been there. After a long day, there's nothing more satisfying than setting the girls free from their designated boob cage. This euphoric event is a feeling of relief that is unlike any other. But why do we find it to be so? It's because we all know what it's like to suffer, not from just any problems, but from Bra-blems. Oh yes, bra-blems: those problems only caused by the source of bondage us and our tatas fall victim to. Since these unspoken struggles are endured by all women, I thought I would share a few of the bra-blems i've faced and my solutions that make wearing a bra almost, dare I say, enjoyable! Here we go...

Spillage

As a bustier gal myself, (I wear a 32D for reference) there is nothing more annoying than spilling out of your bra. I mean c'mon bra, you have ONE JOB. I've found that in the past, spillage is 100% due to two factors: wearing the wrong style of bra and wearing the wrong size. To avoid spilling out of your bra, make sure that you are wearing a bra that is the correct cup size AND correct band size. We often neglect the importance of a well-fitted bra band, however, the band of the bra provides the base of support. If your band is too small, spillage is likely. As far as bra style is concerned, avoid "demi" cut bras if you are prone to spilling out of your cup. Look for a style that is full coverage support. This means the cups are cut higher and provide more coverage!

The Strapless Do-Nothing

Another common bra-blem I have faced is the ever annoying strapless bra that seems to leave all responsibility at the door. What is the point of wearing a bra if it's not going to do it's job of supporting and staying put? I always find myself hiking up my strapless bras, praying they will stay in place. I've found that the best solution is to choose a strapless bra that has a fuller cup instead of one that just serves as a shelf-style bra. Also, try to opt for a strapless bra that has a wide band. This will provide extra support to help keep the girls in place!

Comfort vs. Cute

The last bra-blem that seems to commonly arise is the intense battle between finding a bra that is sexy and finding a bra that feels good! Why must we choose? In the past, I've found that many bras designed to be visually appealing don't perform well when it comes to support and comfort. Likewise-the most comfortable and supportive bras tend to be pretty bland in style. My solution for this bra-blem is to find a brand of bra that fits you well and offers the support you need and from here, explore the different silhouettes and details they offer.

It's officially August, which means it's only a matter of time before I (and many others) will be heading back to campus for University. As I leap into my junior year, I feel more confident in expressing my style on a day-to-day basis. It's easy to get caught up in the college grunge uniform (aka sweatpants, workout tanks and tennis shoes), however I am a firm believer in the "dress well, test well" attitude. Plus, in a place as overwhelming as college, it's nice to feel true to yourself in style. Here are my must-haves for this upcoming season!

It's official-June is here and once again, the previous month has flown by. I wanted to put together a little "series" on my blog that would highlight a few of my favorite items of the month. You could categorize this kind of post as your typical monthly favorites, but I'm hoping you will see it a little differently. Instead of highlighting a group of products from the month before, I just wanna chat about anything and everything that made an impression on me during the time. I'd love your feedback, so feel free to let me know what you think in the comments!

Today's post is something a little out of the ordinary but also pretty exciting! Lately, I've been on a huge mission to clear out my closet of anything and everything that no longer has a place in my day-to-day life. Whether it's an item that doesn't fit or hasn't gotten much (or any) use, I have decided to list some of my items on Poshmark, for those who might be interested!
