Smitten: Winter Calm

Every once in a while I list the little things that have me Smitten. Enjoy.

The holidays are a flurry of activity, glitter, and sequins, all of which I adore. But in January I like to embrace the Winter Calm.

{edor "two hearts" necklace}

Normally, I'm all over some statement necklaces, but lately I've been smitten with this teeny tiny necklace I won. It's so delicate and lovely.

I'm giving my beloved glitter nails a break and enjoying this light pink shade (my dupe for Essie's Ballet Slippers).

{wet n wild eyeshadow trio in walking on eggshells}

I've been calming down my eyeshadow instead of a heavy smokey eye, and I love these light brown neutral shades.

{makeup forever lip gloss in pearly nude and revlon colorburst lipstick in soft nude}

After wearing red lipstick for my brother's wedding, Christmas, and NYE, I wanted something barely there, and I'm smitten with these lippies. Note: never use "lippies" in a sentence again.

 {annual/party tradition of coffee beans & vanilla tea light candles)

I have a candle for just about every season/occasion. However, it's about this time of year when I need a little scent detox, so coffee beans + vanilla tea light candles it is! The metal tea lights heat the beans for a comforting scent & the vanilla is subtle and calming. Bonus tips: I use this duo or this whenever I host a party to ward off the smokers' scent when they come inside.

{ikea milk frother, $2.99}

My January resolution is to not shop--it'll help save money. Another way I'm saving money is by making my coffee treats at home using this milk frother. It's amazing, cheap, and matches my kitchen. How did I get along without it?

What has you Smitten lately?
