KISS Confident with KISS Lashes


This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of KISS Lashes. All opinions are 100% mine.

KISS Lashes are so natural and easy to apply.

When KISS Lashes reached out to me to try out their latest false eyelashes, I was a bit hesitant. The last time I wore faux lashes was for my wedding! Honestly I wasn't sure I could pull off the look. Still I agreed to give them a try - I know so many fashion bloggers who wear lashes almost daily for that beauty "wow-factor" that makeup can't really achieve. And I knew they'd be great for the holiday season, too, when you want a little something extra for your look.

You'll Never Guess Where Gabrielle Union Got Her Amazing Winter Coat

Gabrielle Union stuns in a winter coat from her collection for New York & Company featuring a mix of colorful faux fur and tweed.
If I'm being perfectly honest, I see a lot of celebrity looks I love, but realistically know will be impossible to recreate on a budget. Take for instance Gabrielle Union's amazing faux fur and tweed coat look. Layered over luxe neutral knits and paired with the prettiest purple ankle boots and leather bucket bag, it's the epitome of winter chic.

Judging by the detail and unique mix of fabrics and fur, I figured her coat was Dolce or Miu Miu. No way I could recreate this on a budget.
