Happy New Year! I am excited for the start of a new year. With every new year, I always reflect on the events of the year - the highs and the lows (both were plentiful this year). In addition to life events, I also think about those products or items that weathered the year with me; the things that I continued to reach for and those that never let me down (yes, carbs should receive an honorable mention).

I decided to share some of my favorite products from the past year!

(click the links below!)

1. URBAN DECAY 'Perversion' Mascara ($22): Absolutely amazing. My eyes are pretty sensitive and I've tried a lot of mascaras. Throughout the year I tested drugstore products and luxury ones - this middle of the line mascara kept my lashes hydrated and didn't irritate my eyes.

2. ADIDAS Superstar Athletic Shoes ($80): I rocked these as long as Chicago weather would allow me.  So comfy!

3. TIFFANY & CO. Pearl Earrings ($225): I always reach for these earrings - I think there is something about pearls that brighten the face. Not a scientific deduction though ;)

4. RAY BAN Aviators ($175): forever and always.

5. APPLE iPad Mini ($400): love love love

6. AVEDA Air Control Hairspray ($30): gives great hold and doesn't make my hair crunchy...win-win

7. L'OREAL Voluminous Smoldering Eyeliner ($10): the only thing I'll use on my waterline and the product lasts forever

8. NARS 'Matahari' Blush ($30): my favorite blushes, the color in the pan looks TOTALLY different on the face, don't be scared - bonus points for the cheeky name!

9. DW Hand Poured Candles ($12): try to find these babies at a TJ Maxx or Marshall's for a slight discount

10. ONE TEASPOON 'Bandit' Shorts ($107): couldn't take these off in the summer - these are the best jean shorts, I've ever owned, well worth the higher price tag!

11. KAT VON D Contour Palette ($46): blends better than the other palettes I've tried, and the colors aren't too harsh...this palette comes in a light and dark version

12. VINCE CAMUTO 'Malaya' Boots ($300): Loved thigh high boots this year - I even wore them in the warmer months with dresses

13, LULULEMON 'Align Pant II' ($98): check out my blog post on these babies

14. TIFFANY & CO. Diamond Necklace ($500): I love dainty jewelry and this necklace is perfect and I never take it off! (#thanksdean)

15. SAINT LAURENT 'Sac du Jour' ($2890): favorite bag that I can't put down, I never thought I'd love such a structured bag!

16. ANASTASIA 'Brow Wiz' Pencil ($21): #eyebrowobsessed


Cheers to a great new year!
