"No elegance is possible without perfume. It is unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory.
- Coco Chanel

Every gal or guy has their go-to everyday perfume or cologne. It's, like Coco Chanel says, the ultimate and most important unseen accessory one can wear. To me, perfume can embody your personality. Your perfume can change based on the season, your look, or much less your mood! It represents the look your trying to achieve just by a smell - and I think that's incredibly fascinating. 

My go-to daily perfume is Pacifica's Vanilla Perfume. It's young and sweet and lifts my mood up every time that I put it on. It lingers after I leave, so that I am often remembered, and to most...I smell like a walking vanilla cupcake. Who wouldn't want to smell like vanilla cupcakes all day long? When I'm not going through just an ordinary day, but rather going somewhere a little bit more upscale, I reach for the all time classic Chloe. It's light and flowery, but has a trace of a bit more maturity. Not the mention the bottle has completely captured my heart.

My love of my countless (seriously, my perfume collection has gotten a little out of hand...) scents led me to slip on this River Island Perfume Bottle T-Shirt. It's got all the elements that I adore. From perfume, minimalism, graphics, to sparkle! I love how the perfume bottles are inspired by the classic Chanel perfume bottles, it gives it a much needed fashionable and girly touch. The minimalism and graphic elements go hand in hand. I am all for a good ol' basic graphic tee - and this one fit the bill. Lastly, and most obviously, this shirt has my love of sparkle all over it! The small rhinestones were the perfect touch, making it not just a run of the mill tee.

After keeping it simple with my go-to pair of jeans, I decided to dress up the look a little bit with my suede Burberry black boots. These boots are basically the love of my life (under the winter shoes category of course, one can never love just one pair of shoes!). I know that spring is here, but the weather hasn't really shown much recognition of the season yet, but suede isn't just a winter fabric anymore. From it's debut on the runway, suede is coming back full force this spring and summer. I'm sorry, it's just, these shoes are literally so classic and chic that I just can't even.

Onwards now to accessories! Along with my perfume, I obviously had to wear my Luxe Perfume Bottle Clutch from The Shopping Bag! This purse has become my prized possession ever since I got it at the beginning of the year (which you can see in my New Year's post!). It's black, it's shiny, and it's the shape of a perfume bottle! What more could one expect for this outfit? It was the final and the perfect last missing piece for this outfit...with the exception of actual perfume of course.

What's your favorite perfume? Let me know in the comments and make sure to check out more of my favorite perfume and River Island tops below!

Lavender Royale

Cupcake Royale, Lavender, spring, spring cupcake, vanilla, cupcakes, blogger, recipe, baking, cupcake recipe
Happy first day of spring, everyone! To start of Spring on a sweet note, I thought that I would introduce to the easiest way of making incredibly tasty and incredibly cute decadent lavender iced vanilla cupcakes! I'm not the best type person (or rather patient person...) that can go through all the motions of baking. I love the idea of baking, but when it comes to measuring and actually doing it - well, that's where I fall short.

Luckily, I came across Cupcake Royale, known for their out of this world cupcakes! For the impatient bakers like me, Cupcake Royale offers a complete Cupcaking Kit. It comes with everything that you'll need to make cupcakes that everyone will be dying to know how you made. 

The kit includes an all measured out Vanilla Cake mix that you can easily just dump in with your liquids - and voila! You've got a beautiful batter to put in the oven. Cupcake Royale has the icing covered for you as well. I chose their Lavender Icing which to my surprise actually has full bits of lavender within the icing. It's indescribably delicious! Also included in the kit is a gorgeous and rustic looking box that can hold a dozen cupcakes, so you can transport your cupcakes around easily to let all your foodie friends try!

To give mine an added look of spring and an added scent of spring, I placed a twig of fresh lavender on the top of each cupcake. Honestly, these cupcakes are the perfect way to make your spring start off sweet!

Lucky Spring Statements

Leave a Comment
Step Inside My Closet - Lucky Spring Statements Featuring The Shopping Bag and Nine West - statement necklace, spring dresses, statement jewelry, st. patrick's day, lucky, green

It's the month of luck with St. Patrick's Day coming soon, so to help you get prepared I'm showing you how to style up a spring themed St. Patty's outfit to remember. Like I always say though, the accessories can make or break and outfit - so of course I'm turning to The Shopping Bag to help me out in giving a basic outfit a little Irish kick! Don't worry, you can get festive with The Shopping Bag's new March accessories by using the code LUCKY at checkout for 17% off all items now until midnight on St. Patrick's Day. Now that is what I call a lucky deal.

Not only did I decided to wear this super cute and dainty gold Heidi Bib Necklace, but I decided to pair it with The Shopping Bag's white Crochet Lace A-Line Dress. The dress is so spring and summer time friendly because it has a cut out in the back which I've been seeing pretty much everywhere lately! This pairing was the ultimate spring and feminine type of outfit, which went perfectly with the lovely flowers that I received!

For shoes I decided to keep it simple, but wanted to make the outfit look a little bit more mature with these nude and black Nine West heels. These are super comfortable and super chic - and are a go-to minimalist pair of pumps!

To get you more inspired for St. Patrick's Day, The Shopping Bag just posted an incredibly cute and easy St. Patrick's Day themed recipe on their blog that incorporates the Faux Bois Porcelain Tray that I even used in my Drape Me In Sparkles post!

I hope that the luck of the Irish is with you this upcoming St. Patty's Day!

Driver, Take Me Somewhere Sunny

Leave a Comment
Step Inside My Closet - Driver Take Me Somewhere Sunny Featuring Abercrombie & Fitch, Bella Pierre, Isaac Mizrahi, Loeffler Randall, Wildfox Couture

If you're like me, then you practically feel allergic to the cold you detest it so much. Fortunately, cute and cozy sweaters help me get through this chilly period! Reminding me of spring with its vibrant yellow color, this witty Wildfox Couture sweater reflects my current winter time thoughts. This sweater is incredibly comfortable, just like my Abercrombie & Fitch dark wash jeans. Comfy is key, and it doesn't have to look like you're wearing your pajamas if you want to be comfortable.

My favorite winter boots are these Isaac Mizrahi quilted boots that still look flawless after a walk through the dense snow. To match my boots I added this Loeffler Randall bag that screams minimalism chic. I love minimalist types of accessories and clothing because it's so easy to keep the item casual, or easy to dress it up depending on the occasion.

I wanted to keep the vibrancy throughout my makeup as well, so of course I went with a bright lip! Lipstick is the best way of adding color to your face, and my favorite lipstick shade is this Bella Pierre pink that I featured in my Drape Me In Sparkles post which features the rest of my favorite lipsticks as well!

Hopefully the chilly weather lets up soon and you end up somewhere sunny!

Friyay

Happy, Friday! Although spring is set to arrive soon, snow is still on the ground and a chill is in the air, but I'm bracing the frigid temperatures with all things warm and cozy! Specializing in all things crochet, Magic Crochet by Helena on Etsy makes crocheted items ranging all the way from home accessories, babies, mugs and more, which have added a little something special to what once was an ordinary cup of hot chocolate.

If you follow me on Instagram (@StepInsideMyCloset) then you might already know that I'm a little bit (okay, a lot...) obsessed with cute and quirky mugs. I was incredibly pleased when I found these colorful knitted mug cozys that keeps your warm drink even warmer and your mug looking extraordinarily cute! My drink of choice for winter? Hot chocolate...on a stick. Just give me the almond milk and these delectably cute hot chocolate bars from Popbar and you have one happy...and cold...blogger!

While my mug cozys and hot chocolate made me feel cozy, I was embracing the chill of the snow and the happiness that comes along with Friday in my Project Social T Friyay short sleeve top. Funny tops like this give a carefree vibe that I am absolutely crazy about. I love humor and am the type of person that laughs at everything, so when I have a chance to make someone or myself smile with just the clothes I'm wearing - then I take the opportunity.

I paired this cozy look with basic Abercrombie & Fitch jeans and these cute and functional black quilted Isaac Mizrahi boots that are a winter weather must have! They have the look of Hunter Boots, but with a little added touch of style.

For jewelry and accessories I kept it simple but with a carefree bohemian vibe. For most of my jewelry I turn to The Shopping Bag. They had the perfect gold and white necklace that holds delicacy and style. The last accessory that I added to this ensemble is this cozy and cute Express white beanie. This beanie goes perfectly with the mug cozys - and the endless snow!
