The Perfect Make-Up Bag?

My eternal struggle, trying to find the perfect make-up bag. I have never been able to find a makeup bag that is small, yet fit all my make up that I need. I mean I don't wear much makeup, but its when I travel I need all of the little things that I might need.

There are certain things that I need in a make up bag.
1) It has to fit in a suite case.
2) It has to be able to clean up well.
3) It would be preferable if it was pretty.

I don't think that my requirements are to much to ask, do you? Here are a few make up bags that I have found:

Kate Spade Shelby Drive Large Marit

Tory Burch Travel Nylon Double-Zip Cosmetic Case

Ralph Lauren Gallaway Cosmetic Case

Longchamp Le Pliage Cosmetic Case

Ted Baker Cosmetic Case

(Psssss. This one is my favorite one! ;) )

I have pretty much given up hope for finding a perfect makeup bag for me. But I am always open to suggestions. I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year! Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

Christmas!

Hello, beautiful people! Its that time of year again. Happy Hanukkah and merry Christmas! Christmas is a very busy and stressful time of year for everyone. Now just image getting married on Christmas Eve. Well, that is exactly what my parents did 23 years ago. Saying Christmas is a big thing in my family is the understatement of the century. Christmas is the thing that my Moma, Daddy, Nana, and I all look forward to all year long. It is just so magical, and special.

While we are sitting at home tomorrow with our family and friends around us, one thing that I hope that we all think about is how much the people around us mean to us.

Thank you for reading and have a preptastic Christmas tomorrow! Merry Christmas!!

Driving!!!

I got my learner's permit last Tuesday! Driving has been really fun so far, scary at times, but mostly fun. I studied a lot for the test, I am one of the last people in my grade eligible to get my learner's because I am born in May. I mean yes, I can learn from the people who cam before me, I know how to do my driver's ed online since I go to a private school, and where to take Behind-the-wheel, all because I was one of the last ones. All I know is that when and if I get a car, it will be the preppiest you have ever seen!

Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

Fall Favorites

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. The leaves are turning, the weather is getting cold, but not too cold. The down sides to autumn is that when the leaves fall, the allergies start, and I have to play tennis is the freezing wind by the end of October. Since tennis is over and I am only playing tennis two days a week, I promise to blog more. Honestly, blogging relaxes me and I have been missing it.

Before I share my Fall Favorites, Happy November!

Now for my Fall Favorites.

L.L. Bean Bean Boots // 1989 by Taylor Swift

L'Occitane Shea Hand Cream // Lumiere d'Hiver Supper Comb Prep & Protect

Camping Socks // S'well Hot/Cold Bottle

Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

The Undeniable Report Launch

Back in May I stumbled upon an online magazine called "Undeniable Magazine." I wrote my first article for the magazine in June; and by July , I had become the Vice President of Undeniable Resources (well, really Human Resources). Through this experience, I have met so many wonderful people from all around the country and the world.

Undeniable Magazine changed mediums, going from an online magazine to a website, over the summer, and turned into The Undeniable Report. You might be asking "Who? What? Where?" First for the who, in May I contacted the woman who started it all Anna, from Undeniably Anna. Over the summer, we became steadfast friends. :)

Now for the "What," here is what the description is on the official Undeniable Report Facebook Page, "Undeniable is an online, interactive lifestyle magazine written by a community of bloggers from around the country. We include articles from style, beauty, and health, to empowerment, school, and media. Through our community, we create a positive space for bloggers and readers from all around to come together and celebrate every aspect of life." Yep, that sums it up.

The question you have al been waiting for, the "where". Pop on over to The Undeniable Report website right now!! The site officially launched October 1st!!

Follow the Undeniable Report on Social media!

I hope that everyone enjoys the material that so many people worked countless hours on, and spent so many sleepless nights working on. Thank you for reading, and have a preptastic day!

New Favorite On-the-Go Hydrating Lipstick

NYX Chunky Dunk Hydrating Lippie in Cherry Smash

I have been on an eternal search for the best moisturizing lipstick, and I think I have finally found one! The NYX Chunky Dunk has such long wear moisture that it makes putting on chap stick before you lipstick obsolete. But to every good product comes a down side, it doesn't have the long wear characteristics. Meaning it won't last you all day, or at least until lunch. I highly recommend this product because of how small and easy to put in a hand bag or clutch. It is great on the go or when you just need a little touch up. This has to be one of mu favorite lipsticks of all times! What is your favorite lipstick? Thank you for reading and have a prepstastic day!

It's That Time of Year Again

I start my Sophomore year of high school today. One year down and three more to go. I must say that this past year has flown by, it felt like yesterday that I was getting ready for Freshmen year, and now I am getting ready for Sophomore year! It's crazy!

Going back to school, to me, means not being able to go to bed at 1 or 2 in the morning and getting up at 11. It means going to bed at 11pm and getting up at 5:45am. Ugh! I don't like getting up in the morning!! But going back to school also means getting to see my friends and play lots of tennis is 90 degree weather…

School also means getting new clothes for school! My Moma and I went to the outlets last weekend and bought some clothes to start school with. My Moma also bought me 5 dresses from the Lilly Pulitzer end of summer sale! I have the best Moma in the world! At the outlets we went to Talbots, Nautica, and Banana Republic. I wanted to hold off on J.Crew and Ralph Lauren until they got more fall stuff in. So here is what I bought!!

Blue and Green Polk-a-dot Dress from Banana Republic

Bicycle shirt from Banana Republic

White Lace Shell from Banana Republic

Navy and White Polk-a-dot Blazer from Banana Republic

Fox Sweater from Talbots

Nautica Striped Anchor Intarsia Sweater

Janice Shift

Delia Shift in Lobsta Claw

MacFarlane Lace Detail Shift

Janice Shift in Resort White

Wish me luck on my first day of school! How has been doing there fall shopping lately? Thank you for reading and have a preptastic day!

Instagram Round Up!

A lot of bloggers I have found are doing Instagram round ups. I thought why not give it a shot. So basically what an Instagram Round Up is is that it is a post of the Instagram pictures you have taken in the last week. Since I was in Disney World last week I thought it would be a good time. Here we go!!
