BILLIE EILISH HAPPIER THAN EVER // ALBUM REVIEW

Image
Billie Eilish's sophomore release is finally here and I'm happier than ever about it! In some ways, the album is quite a departure from her debut, but in the best way possible. When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?  set the stage for what this decade in music is going to be because it was truly unlike any other modern release in recent memory, one whose success and impact will likely never be fully replicated again. She has never tried to be anyone other than herself, which makes her journey of monumental success at such a young age so much more inspiring.  With that being said, the idea of a follow-up release must have come with a lot of pressure to make something just as good, if not better, than the last one. Happier Than Ever is a chronicle of the events that followed her meteoric rise to fame since 2019, from her perspective. There has always been so much talk in the media about the way she dresses, her body, her relationships, whether or not she "deserves" a

CELEBRITY HALLOWEEN COSTUMES 2018: BEST DRESSED

Image
Happy Halloween! In today's post I'm going to be sharing a few of my favorite celebrity costumes from this year! Enjoy! Credit:  Kevin Mazur // Getty Images for Casamigos My favorite from this year was Harry Styles dressed as Elton John at the Casamigos Halloween Party. He wore a custom Gucci Dodgers uniform to replicate what Elton John wore in 1975 during his show at Dodgers Stadium. This costume actually suits Harry's style so well, I hope he wears more outfits like this on his next next tour ! Credit: @bellahadid on Instagram This year Bella Hadid & The Weeknd went as Beetlejuice & Lydia - it was one of the best couple costumes I've seen this year. They have had so many iconic fashion moments together and this is one of my absolute favorites!

KKW BEAUTY LIP LINER REVIEW

Image
Ever since KKW Beauty  launched a few years ago, I have heard incredible reviews of their lip liners and was so excited when I had the chance to try them for myself.  These retail for $12 each, which is the most affordable product from KKW and a relatively good price when it comes to a high end brand. They are sold on KKW's website and in-stores and online at Ulta. I bought these when they were 50% off at Ulta a few months ago, which is a great deal and makes it more comparable to drugstore prices.  There are over 40 shades available on the KKW website, ranging from Nudes, Reds, Pinks and Peaches. All of the shades aren't available at Ulta, but they do carry a nice range in store and online.  The names are based on a gradient system correlating with the tone of the shade ranging from 0 to 5, for example I have the shades Nude 2 and Red 4. I haven't really seen any other brands have a system like this when it comes to naming the shades, but it makes it so easy to find the pe

KKW BEAUTY HOLIDAY 2019 DUO // REVIEW

Image
I've been eager to try out KKW Beauty, Kim Kardashian's brand, for a while and I was so excited when it was announced that they will be sold in stores and online at Ulta! Ulta carries a wide range of her products from the permanent KKW line, in addition to a few Ulta exclusive holiday sets. I picked up the Crème Lipstick & Highlighter duo, which retails for $29 ($38 value). The set includes a crème lipstick in the shade "Enchanting" and a powder highlighter in the shade "Tempting". Both shades are exclusive to this set. Both of these products (and many others in the KKW line) come in clear acrylic packaging, which is so simple, chic, and very true to Kim's personal style.  Enchanting // Crème Lipstick  "Enchanting" is a beautiful blue-toned mauve shade and is an exclusive to this set. It is a moisturizing crème formula, which feels very comfortable and moisturizing on the lips. Since it's a crème finish, it definitel

HARRY'S HOUSE BY HARRY STYLES // ALBUM REVIEW

Image
After Harry Styles ' record breaking release of his sophomore album Fine Line in late 2019, he is finally back and better than ever with his new album Harry's House ! It was written, produced, and performed primarily with his frequent collaborators Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson - along with Sammy Witte and Mitch Rowland on a few - at the start of the pandemic in 2020 up until he embarked on the US leg of Love On Tour last Fall. This album opens up a new side of Harry that we haven't heard from him before, while still incorporating many of the same musical elements we all know and love from past work. "I wanted to make an acoustic EP, all in my house, and make it really intimate. It’s named after the Japanese pop pioneer Haruomi Hosono, who had an album in the ‘70s called Hosono's House . I immediately started thinking about what Harry’s House might look like. It took time for me to realise that the house wasn’t a geographical location, it was an internal thing,&
