ELIZABETH AND JAMES JEWELRY TRUNK SHOW

Elizabeth and James jewelry has always been a favorite of mine, so when I heard there was an upcoming trunk show at French Cuff Boutique, I got way too excited. (Side note: I now work there, so get ready for a lot of fun inside scoop!) 

Swing by French Cuff Woodway next Wednesday and Thursday, June 10th and 11th or French Cuff Bellaire next Friday and Saturday, June 12th and 13th, for first grabs of the latest Elizabeth and James jewelry. Can't wait to see what's to come? Check out this sneak peek!

Do you have any Elizabeth and James jewelry?

FAVORITO FRIDAY: ELIZABETH AND JAMES NIRVANA

Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen have done it again. Their first fragrance, Elizabeth and James Nirvana is by far, my favorite one to apply in the morning. And in the afternoon. And in the evening.

Nirvana Black is a blend of violet, sandalwood, and vanilla for both a masculine and feminine balance, while Nirvana White has a lighter aroma of muguet, peony, and musk. Seperately, I do prefer Nirvana Black (surprise, surprise), but pairing them together creates such a unique scent that I'm so obviously obsessed with.

It usually takes me a while to get through a whole bottle of perfume, so I opted for just the rollerballs (even though the full size bottles are so beautiful, I'd take an empty one). This Sephora-exclusive will set you back $22 for each rollerball, and $55 to $75 for each bottle.

Nirvana.

I hope there's more where this came from! Elizabeth and James definitely hit it out of the park with this set and I'll be the first in line for whatever is next!

Have you tried Elizabeth and James Nirvana?

Perfect for school, traveling, festivals, and everything else you can imagine - you're silly to not have one right now!
