Who else is ready to start fresh in 2017?

This year has been a busy one to say the least and I’m excited to see what 2017 has to offer!

Here’s my top 16 of 2016 countdown of my personal favorites from this year that will be sticking around in 2017 as well…
1. Velvet

Velvet is IN. I’ve seen this material in dresses, tops, accessories, you name it. I’m obsessing over the mellow shades they come in.

2. Blush Shades

This color is very feminine and really compliments any skin tone. It looks great as outfit prices or accessories to compliment neutrals.

3. Chokers

Chokers are the perfect peice to dress any outfit up or down. They pair with any style and are an easy way to make your outfit bold.

4. Dior Nude Skin-Glowing Makeup

This fall I went to sephora and had my color IQ test done to find the perfect color/foundation for my skin type. I’m not a fan of matte products, I like illuminizing products that make my skin glow, so this was the perfect fit!

6. Malin + Goetz Clarifying Face Mask

I got this face mask in my November BirchBox and now I use it every week. It really exfoliates your delicate skin in. Gentle way as well as detoxing and evening my skin tone.

7. Davines Sea Salt Spray

I cut my hair short in October and this sea salt spray is the perfect product to give your hair that texturized look while holding your hair in place…plus it smells good!

8. Vans- High Tops

I’m definitely the girl to reach for my vans or tennis shoes before heels. I love being comfortable and looking good so Vans high tops are the perfect shoe. I will never stop loving them.

(^I got these pink ones for Christmas and I’m obsessing)

9. Pharmacia Eau De Perfume – Fleur D’oranger

I originally bought this perfume for my sister for Christmas and my friend went and bought me the same one for our secret santa…and it’s my favorite. It has a clean flower smell to it and comes in a little pretty bottle!

10. Makeup Forever Hydratig Primer

This primer makes my face a smooth flat canvas for my makeup. It evens my skin tone and really keeps my makeup in tact for the night.

11. Mario Basescu Rosemary Spray

I use this everyday and I’ve talked about it in other posts. I spray it on my face before I do my makeup, after I do my makeup, in the morning, before bed, on a hot summers day, you get it…I use it ALL the time. It’s one of my all time favorite products and it’s at a great price too!

12. Bucket Bags

I’ve been eyeing bucket bags for over a year now and everytime I find one I like it’s either way over my budget or I find little things I don’t like about it. I finally found one that wasnt expensive but gave me everything I was looking for. I love the way they look and the easy access style it brings.

13. Alba Acnedote Deep Pore Wash

This face wash really helped my skin. I was having minor acne on my chin and cheeks and after using this wash for about 6 months my face is completely clear. I can’t go a day without using it.

14. Loafers

I love how clean these shoes look. You can really wear it with anything you want and they’re perfect for the upcoming job interviews this year…

Shop Here
15. Knockoff Designer Shades

This year I bought my first pair of Dior sunglasses and as much as I would love to wear them everywhere I like to mix it up and I also get missing sunglasses anxiety #lol. So knock-off shades that look designer are always the answer!

16. Ripped Denim

I will forever and always love ripped denim whether it’s my jeans or a jean jacket. They never go out of style.
