Collector of Coffee Table Books

I don't "collect" many things but I am obsessed with coffee table books. They are literally all over my house! I use them to decorate on shelves, tables (obvi), kitchen counter, etc.
I typically buy ALL of my books on Amazon. Their prices are SO much cheaper than boutiques and with Prime you get free shipping in two days.
I have compiled a few of my favorites above. All are available on Amazon.

Totes Amazing!

 

 

 

 

 

Summer=Totes! I literally carry everything and anything in my tote! From pool/beach towel to sunscreen, having a large bag this season is a must!

I put together some of my favorites for you guys!

Rodan + Fields Essentials Foaming Sunless Tan

With the temps nearly hitting triple digits here in Tulsa, OK....it officially feels like summer. That being said...I need pool/beach/Hamptons type accessories, clothes and makeup.
The items above are what I'm currently "summer lovin'"
In my opinion, when going to any type of summer event, whether at the pool or outdoor, I want to be tan, have by make-up look shimmery and bright (and long lasting), and to wear pops of color.
The cream shadows from Bobbi Brown are unreal amazing! You are literally go swimming underwater and your shadow will still look in place and perfect when you come up for air. I call this shadow my "mermaid" shadow b/c it's so shimmery and pretty! My favorite color is Goldstone.
The Chanel lipstick color I use every day is L'Exuberante in Rouge Allure Velvet. It's gorgeous and looks stunning on tan skin. Like the BB shadow, this lipstick does not move ALL DAY. It's magic!
Rodan and Fields is my skincare regimen of choice and their sunless tanner is in HIGH demand. Dries within minutes, unscented and does not make you look orange. It's in my makeup bag ALL summer.
Need a good book for by the pool? Check out Luckiest Girl Alive! Comparable to Gillian Flynn's novels and also a favorite of Reese Witherspoon.
I hope to be poolside all weekend daydreaming of more summer goodies and purchasing everything else above that I don't already own!
 

Moving On Down The Road (literally)

 

 

This week I am doing what I consider to be one of the most dreadful things known to woman...moving.

 

Kitchen? Packed

Living Room? Packed

Bath Room? Packed

Bedroom? Packed

Closet? .......

 

The closet is the last item on my ever growing list of things to do and I'm now facing the question of what to keep and what to donate.

 

 

Can someone please send me the SATC gals (and several bottles of champs) to get me through this headache of a project?!

 

 

The BIG actual move is in two days and I am hoping and praying to have things in semi order by next week. That being said....there are SEVERAL new additions coming to The Holliday Experience and I can't wait to share them with all of you! 

1. / 2. / 3. / 4. / 5. / 6. / 7. / 8. / 9. / 10.

 

 

 

It's that time of year again!!!!! The Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale ! Shop jewelry, clothes, shoes, and home goods up to 40% off from now until May 31st.

 

I have picked out some of my favorites and let's just say that my shopping cart is full! I'm going to have to find the strength to whittle down my list a bit...or not. With these prices, stuff goes FAST so don't wait too long to buy!

 

Happy shopping dolls!

I'm a total sucker for all things beauty. Cosmetics, hair supplies, facial regimens, nails...you name it, I love it! 

I want to give you all a brief little comment of everything above (in order of images) so you can rush out and buy them...b/c this is something I would totally do.
 

-Eos lip balm: I honestly have one of these in my purse, desk drawer, nightstand, gym bag, car console, and bathroom. I can't get enough. They are the perfect size and the best moisturizer for my lips. My favorite flavor is the coconut milk.

 

-Bliss Body Butter: I never run out of this stuff. It is amazing and hands down the best lotion I have ever used. I usually buy the HUGE size at Nordstrom Rack.

 

-Catwalk Fashionista purple shampoo: I'm a recent blondie and the thought of having brassy locks terrifies me. This shampoo is magic..no really. It turns my color from blah to gorg, making my blonde light and shiny.

 

-Moroccan Oil treatment: I use all Moroccan Oil products, but this is my favorite. Makes my coarse, naturally curly hair soft and manageable. I use it on both wet and dry hair. Plus it smells like heaven.

 

-TIGI Masterpiece shine hairspray: I am not a big hairspray user. Mostly b/c volume is the last thing I need. This spray is amazing. It holds hair in place and makes it glisten without causing hair to be stiff. I LOVE.

 

-Urban Decay All-Nighter setting spray: I have raved about this product MANY times on the blog. It is my absolute favorite product. Spray this of your face after make-up is applied and it will literally look the exact same HOURS later. I don't run out of this product.

 

-Bobbi Brown Metallic Long-Wear Cream Shadow: This is another product I swear by. My favorite shade is Goldstone. I especially love this in the summer b/c it seriously won't crease or come off...even in water.

 

-Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet lipstick: I have this lipstick in several colors. Favorite: L'Exuberante. It says in place for hours and doesn't ever crack or give lips that chalky look. Worth every penny.

 

-Sally Hansen Gel polish: I literally DO NOT have time to get my nails painted with shellac every 10 days. I found this polish at Target, gave it a try and am now HOOKED. With no light needed, you apply this polish and then the clear gel top coat and BAM...shellac nails in 2 minutes. I have found it to last a minimum of 10 days. It's amazing and a real money saver. Favorite colors: Birthday Suit and All Chalked Up.

 

-Remington hair wand: I bought this wand at Ulta 2 years ago and believe it gives my hair the most beautiful curls. So if you wanna look like a Victoria Secret model (obviously just their hair) then get this tool.

 

-Rodan + Fields Amp MD System: I'm only 31, but I owe Rodan + Fields for keeping me without a wrinkle thus far. This system is incredible and I will sing it's praises every day. Use this noninvasive roller over face and then apply night renewing serum with Retinol to give your lines/wrinkles a filler without the money or pain. Link: hholliday.myrandf.com

 

I hope you guys love this stuff as much as I do!
