TAG: Winterlicious

Hey everyone!
So I was tagged by Grace from Preppy on the West Coast to do this tag, and I thought how fun would this be! Enjoy!

1. Favorite Winter Nail Polish?
I have been loving nails inc. 'The Boltons' and I have a NOTD post for it.
 
2. Favorite Winter Lip Product?
For me, it has to be a lip balm. Especially when it's the Fresh Sugar kind.
 By now, you all probably know about my obsession. But trust me, they are amazing.
 
3. Most Worn Clothing Piece?
Sweaters/Cardigans! I wear sweaters and cardigans all the time. I have been wearing
 my LOFT Cardigan a lot, it's a heavy material but still fits lightly and I love it! I also
have an Abercrombie sweater that's a size bigger and a thicker material too.
 
4. Most Worn Winter Accessory?
One word: UGGS. Where I live, my feet feel frozen when I wear
other shoes. They're just so comfy, cute, and warm!
 
5. Favorite Winter/Candle Scent?
My mom doesn't trust me with candles, haha, probably smart, but I have been using
B&BW Vanilla Bean Noel and love the scent!
 
6. Favorite Winter Beverage?
I have been drinking tea about every morning, but I also love this Candycane
Cocoa Mix my mom got.
 
7. All Time Favorite Christmas/Holiday Movie?
To be honest, I don't watch a lot of Christmas movies, nor do I have a favorite.
But I'll just be my obsessive weird side for a moment and say The Hunger Games. :)
 
8. Favorite Christmas/Holiday Song?
Hmmm.... any of the originals like Frosty the Snowman or Winter Wonderland. It gets me into the spirit more than the modern twist of the songs.
 
9. Favorite Holiday Food Treat?
Angel Pie. Third favorite food. I don't know if it is a family recipe but it's so good!

10. What is your favorite decoration this year?
In my room, I hung 4 little stockings on my headboard which I love. I will probably
do a post showing you all what I did to my room!

11. What Tops Your Christmas Wishlist This Year?
A Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC in soft gray! And I got one... because I may have, may have not, looked at a Christmas box with a SHIP FROM: REBECCA MINKOFF.... oops?

12. What are your plans for the holidays this year?
What I do every year! I spend time with my family and it's so fun. :)

I TAG ALL OF YOU.

My Top 5 Winter/Christmas Products on 'Preppy on the West Coast"

Hey Everyone!
Sorry I haven't posting regularly, school is so hectic! But I do have a special treat for you all! I did a guest post for Grace on her amazing blog, Preppy on the West Coast. In this guest blog, I share with you my top five favorite products for the upcoming season and Christmas! Some of you will be able to name them already though (Sugar Rose Lip Balm? Yup!) You can see it here and while you're there, make sure you check out the rest of her blog. It's so awesome! Honestly, it's one of my favorites! And if you're feeling extra generous, you can follow her blog too! I had so much fun making the guest post, and if any of you are interested in doing one for this blog (or my book blog), let me know in the comments or check out my contact page and email me. Thanks again. Bye for now! -Kait

My Top 5 Winter/Christmas Scents

Hey everyone!
I absolutely love this time of year, so I will be making a bunch of posts related to winter/Christmas! Today's post I decided to share with you are my top five favorite scents. You can actually find all of them at Bath and Body Works, except the last one which is by PINK. B&BW does have PINK products, and I looked online, but they didn't have the scent I wanted.

1. Vanilla Bean Noel
This scent to me smells exactly like roasting marshmallows. It's sweet, but not overly. It's a cozy type of scent if that makes sense to you.
2. Twisted Peppermint
Of course, this scent is very minty smelling. It has a little bit of a sweet side to it, but it's mostly just minty!
 
3. Winter Candy Apple
I've never smelled a candy apple before; however, I'm assuming that is what this scent smells like. It smells sweet with a little twinge of something else.
 
4. Moonlight Path
This scent is part of B&BW Signature Collection, not the holiday one. It's a musky, floral scent that I really like for the fall/winter time of year.
 
5. PINK's Soft and Dreamy
This scent also reminds me of Vanilla Bean Noel in a way, but they do smell different. This has a whipped cream type of scent. (I had to look this one up :P)
