Best of The Year 2016

2016 has been a crazy year, I wanted to make a post of some of my favorite things from the past year. I started with my accessory favorites, my Apple watch and card cases stand out as my absolute favorites. Next I highlighted my favorite makeup, skincare, and haircare favorites. The NYX brow pencil and the Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil line where my top favorites. Next up where my television and movie favorites, if I had to pick one absolute favorite from each category, Game of Thrones and Arrival would be my picks. Finally I made a play list of my 2016 music favorites, I honestly can't pick just one favorite album...I like them all so much 😫.

December Favorites

Milani Easy Brow Pencil

This brow pencil is super pigmented and glides on easily to create the perfect fleeky brow. 

L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation

I love the light weight formula and how easy it is to apply. 

MICHAEL Michael Kors Safffiano Card Case 

I adore the color and MK now also offers complimentary monograming, so I had to have SRJ stamped on the card case in gold of course.

Smells so good and keeps your lips soft and hydrated. 

Tala

I randomly discovered the artist Tala on my Spotify discover weekly playlist and instantly fell in love with her song, Talk To me. 

Bruno Mars - 24K Magic

This album is amazing! Versace On The Floor, Perm, Chunky, & Too Good To Say Goodbye are on constant repeat.

I've been a fan of The Weeknd for years, Rockin, False Alarm, Secrets & I Feel It Coming are my fav songs from the album. 

Grace Eleyae satin lined caps

I can't begin to tell you how much this simple satin lined beanie has changed my hair life, its a definite must have!

Bring plenty of tissues for this one! Lion is moving and heartfelt it's a definite tear jerker, Sunny Pawar who plays young Saroo is so cute and an amazing actor. Dev Patel's heart wrenching role deserves a Oscar nom for sure!

November Favorites

MICHAEL Michael Kors Ginny 
Compact crossbody bags have become one of my favorite styles of bag. The Ginny was a Black Friday purchase that quickly became a fav of mine.

Apple Watch Series 1 38mm
I've been wanting to get the Apple watch since it came out last year. But I could never justify getting it because of the expensive price. So when the Apple recently released the new series 2 and the series 1 price lowered, I decided to take the plunge. The watch has became a serious fav of mine I love buying types different straps that reflect my mood plus I never miss a notification. I definitely advise buying the watch only when it is on some type of sale or discount, paying full price is not worth it.

Henri Bendel Round Coin Purse
I wrote a review on this coin purse back in October and I'm still loving it just as much as the day I got it. Check out my post on the coin purse here.

Common Black America Again
I have been a Common fan for years, this new album has made me fall in love with his music all over again. My favorite songs from the album are Love Star, Red Wine, Home, Pyramids & Letter To The Free.

Carols Daughter Black Vanilla Leave-in Conditioner
Keeping my hair moisturized is a high priority for me. Being able to simply spray the conditioner on my hair is really convenient, plus it smells amazing!

The Sass is Strong Compact Mirror 
Star Wars + compact mirror = must have!

Simple Micellar Make-up remover wipes
I really like the Simple brand of products, this makeup remover takes off all my makeup with ease and is hypoallergenic making it great for my sensitive skin.

ASOS Cat Velvet Zip Purse 
I carry my phone charger and other random stuff in this cute velvety goodness. It's just one of those items in your bag that you love to look at.

Arrival
Going to movies is one of my favorite things to do. When I went to see Arrival I really did not have any high expectations I thought I was going to see a typical alien invasion movie. Plus I needed something to take my mind off the horrific US elections.  The only way I can describe how I felt after seeing Arrival was shock. I was shocked at how easily and seamlessly this movie expressed the importance of communication, living life to fullest, empathy, patience, and love all in a alien movie. I could go on and on talking about Arrival, so head to your nearest movie theater and see this movie!
