Moving into a new place is really exciting, but it can take time to make a new place feel like home. Many people may feel like they’re living in someone else’s place for a while, or they just can’t feel comfortable in the new space even for weeks after moving day. The feeling of unfamiliarity can be even worse if it’s a rental home which you won’t be able to make fully into your own home. However, it’s not impossible to make a new house feel like a home that’s warm and inviting. Below we have a few easy tips that can help you make your new place inviting and homey in a flash.
Handbags can be expensive, I know. Since a big chunk of our salaries gets allocated to purchasing purses and handbags, no one can blame us if we decide not to get on the trend wagon. Don’t despair yet. The great thing nowadays is that there are so many great options of handbags from all price points that it’s easier than ever to find purses of good quality which are also in trend. Then we can invest the more significant money on classic bags that will never go out of style, but for now, we’ll focus on the purse trends this Fall.
All in all, we aren’t really trendy if after evaluating Fall’s best fashion trends, we fail to do the same with the accessories that will spruce up those outfits. We got our everyday ankle boots covered; now it’s the time for our purse collection to get equal treatment. This season is offering up bags in unusual shapes, in many different materials from chunky chain handles, lucite and fringes. The belt bag is still a must for the fashion lady who prefers hand free bags. A pretty saddle with fringe is always fun and comes with an excellent price tag.

I’ve been studying Interior Design and chic spaces on my own and school, for years. On my own I love to try to understand the spaces I’m interested in and talk about most of them in this blog. As good design has historically proven, design style is pretty much adjusted by region or state. Even though in some cases this traditional thinking doesn’t apply. Take the proximity between New York City and New Jersey for example. Two states one cotton ball throw away from each other, yet they could not be further apart in design aesthetics. Chic spaces for me are spaces where things juxtapose with tension and friction, where according to conventional thoughts, things are not supposed to work, but they do. A Luis XVI chair upholstered in black liquid leather and placed next to a Jacques Adnet side table would create that ambiance. Add an abstract painting on top, and the whole feeling will get stretched out a bit more. Like someone once said, It’s like having a tension cord about to pop. A classic architectural home with modern art and edgy modern furniture pieces would also create a very chic outlook. New York, in my opinion, is the City that best codifies chic spaces. Maybe it’s because of New York’s own diversity, and dynamism comes seeping into its interiors? Of course, chic spaces are all around us. Below are images with distinctive styles that give us a glimpse into what makes a space chic and most importantly how to make a home chic.

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme
Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme hair treatment is by far the best hair product I’ve ever used. I find myself eager to wash my hair to compare the improvement in texture every time I use this hair product. The instructions say to wet your hair, apply the elasticizer and leave it on for about 10 minutes. It also recommends applying some heat for a better result. I take it a step further and apply it on my damp hair at night and sleep with it on. It’s really amazing to see how the hair gets softer, and more manageable every time I use it. Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Extreme is not for fine hair though. I’ve also noticed that my hair detangles much easier, as a result, there is less hair breakage, my ends are healthy, and I can’t say greater things about this hair product. If your hair can use more moisture, then this is the product you should try.
Vital Proteins Organic Bone Broth Collagen
I’m not a big fan of collagen supplements because I get the weirdest reaction to it, from headaches to little bumps under my backhand skin. Yes, freaky but true. However, this organic bone broth from Vital Proteins has only 9g of natural collagen, and I can tolerate it very well without those strange side effect. If you are not familiar with the benefits of nutrient-rich bone broth, these are only a few: protects joint, good for the gut, maintains healthy skin, support immune system function, boosts detoxification, aids the metabolism and promotes anabolism… (source).
I’ve been wanting to start consuming bone broth, but the idea of having to make it from scratch was very discouraging. Lucky Vital Proteins bone broth powder is easy to use, just add it to boiling water, add lemon and salt and it’s done. You can also add it to tea, soup and sauces. ” Vital Proteins Bone Broth Collagen is the first USDA Organic bone broth powder and is Whole30 Approved, MSG free, and low in sodium. Supplementing our diet to ensure that our bodies are enriched with collagen is an important key to good health and a full life.” VP. I try to drink a cup every week.
Z: The Beginning of Everything
While I’m anxiously waiting on the second season of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, I’ve been watching the witty and glamorous series Z: The Beginning of Everything. If you would like to see the flamboyant Jazz Age of the 20’s, glamorous interiors, period fashion and the smart acting of Christina Ricci, this is a must-see biography show. Christina plays the role of Zelda Sayre, a smart, forward-thinking young woman from the South who was way ahead of her time, who dreamed of leaving her little town. She meets the unpublished writer F. Scott Fitzgerald (David Hoflin), marries him and moves to New York City. “They live through a turbulent love affair, and their marriage-made in heaven, lived out in hell as the celebrity couple of their time. The series travels through the wild parties, the wicked jazz, the dissolute artists of the era, as well as the alcoholism, adultery, and struggle with dashed dreams and mental illness that characterizes their later years.” IMDb.
