My Vanity, A Work In Progress

I am the worst at decorating. Oh, I have pinterest board after pinterest board of ideas I’d like to implement, but when it comes to actually doing them, I’d rather tuck into a good book (or youtube makeup tutorial) than figure out what I need to get to make everything come together. I’ve been at the new place for roughly four months now and it still looks like I just moved in. Except for the piles of clothes just outside of the photo that is.

The good news is that I did finally get a stool for my vanity. Now I just need to recover the seat so that it matches the rest of my color scheme. I also have plans to either repaint the current mirror or find a slightly smaller one. Not to mention getting better lighting. And storage. More storage is probably the most pressing issue at the moment.

But the little details do make me pretty happy. I reused the glass container from a previous Bath and Body Works 3 wick candle as my makeup brush holder.

The little ring dish is a great multi-tasker for blog photo props as well as containing my selection of midi rings. Oh, how I love midi-rings. I’m slowly working my way through another 3 wick candle, where I will probably end up storing my eyeliner pencils so I can have better visibility of them.

I also really want to get some wall art, a soft and cozy rug, and something to hang necklaces from. Until then though, this will do.

If you have photos of your vanity setup, please feel free to share. I need good ideas to bring this space together.

I feel like each chapter in my life has had its ow I feel like each chapter in my life has had its own collection of signature scents, and every time I smell them it takes me back. High school was all Lucky You, college was Lovely, start of my career was Black Opium, then Givenchy and Flower Bomb, now on the hunt for this next chapter’s signature scent - Whisky is a key contender but would love to hear some of your favorites so I can check them out 🥰
