It’s always fun to find local shops which offer both fashionable and local products. When I learned about The Perfect Provenance in downtown Tiburon, I was thrilled to learn we had a fabulous shop right here in the Bay Area which offers exactly that!

The Perfect Provenance offers fabulous and fashionable men’s and women’s clothing. They carry amazing brands which are on trend, and also offer quality as well as good fit. In addition to clothing, The Perfect Provenance stocks cult favorite accessories such as Perrin, Vanessa Bruno, and Elena Ghisellini.

I was also amazed to see jewelry from local designers, fabulous shoes, and so many perfect pieces for the home. They stock everything from home décor to books. In addition, they also have all-time children’s favorites such as “Madeline” and “Babar.”

I was also thrilled to find amazing gifts which are not only great for the holiday season, but all year long. They have small batch olive oil and vinegar made in Italy; which as someone with Italian ancestry, I can attest is absolutely authentic and fabulous- a must-buy when you stop in the shop or place an order online!

Products with a cause are always something I fall in love with, these adorable tee’s are exactly that! Sales from the tee’s, pouches and entire “Smile Collection” directly benefit Operation Smile. Love that! There is much more information on their website here.

One thing I find amazing about The Perfect Provenance is that their entire stock is also online. If you are not local to the Tiburon area, or you aren’t ready to venture out of quarantine just yet, you can shop it all online at ThePerfectProvenance.com. Love that!

As far as safety is concerned, everyone inside The Perfect Provenance is wearing a mask; and as a customer, you will too. It’s very clean and safe; and fun! You will love browsing and shopping in-store, just as I did. It is full-scale retail therapy. Love!

I enjoyed trying on clothing in the dressing rooms. It was safe and fun to see which items from the store I wanted to leave with. I ended up snapping up a top, sweater, dress, earrings, olive oil and vinegar (of course), and a candle. I love getting a few things for myself as well as getting a jump start on my holiday gift shopping! It is a one-stop-shop!

Be sure to check out The Perfect Provenance in downtown Tiburon, and also bookmark the website for holiday shopping-and more!

Thanks for stopping by!

Diorific nail polish holidays 2020

Diorific by Dior nail polish and lipstick holidays 2020: Diorific Red Wonders nail polish / Diorific Golden Snow glitter top coat / Diorific Dark Nights nail polish / Diorific Glittery Rose lipstick / Diorific Dazzling Beige lipstick /

Ah, the Diorific nail polish collection by Dior for the 2020 holiday season is here!  If you are interested in this collection, don’t wait to order! It has already sold out at the original retailer I purchased the collection at. I have linked to a retailer who has the entire collection in stock right now! I highly recommend ordering now so that you will have it in time for the holiday season; whether it is for yourself or you are giving it as a holiday gift.

I am still waiting for my Diorific Dark Nights package to arrive, so I don’t have my swatch photo for you yet. The shop I purchased it from is now sold out, but I have linked to an online store in this post where you can still find the collection in stock. Once I receive Diorific Dark Nights nail polish, I will quickly update this post to include a photograph. Please stay tuned and thank you for your patience!

I am absolutely in love with this sparkling collection for the holiday season. The glittering top coat is festive and beautiful. Diorific Golden Snow top coat took me a little bit surprise. The bottle appears white and silvery, but when you apply the top coat over your nail polish, it turns out to be a medium gold glitter! I guess I should have know it would be gold from the name! You can see the contrast in the photo below where I paired Golden Snow with Red Wonders. It’s the perfect holiday combo!

How pretty is Diorific Red Wonders nail polish from the Diorific nail polish holidays 2020 collection! It’s a classic holiday red which can be worn all ear long if you are a red fan. It has a slightly cherry tone, making it pretty and feminine. Love this holiday hue!

Stay tuned! My shipment is on it’s way-as soon as I receive the bottle in the mail I will add my review and swatch photo to this post. Thank you for your patience.

Isn’t Diorific Golden Snow top coat fabulous! It’s a rich, glittery gold top coat which looks amazing over the Diorific Red Wonders nail polish. I am in love with this holiday combo! I cannot wait to try it over Dark nights. Stay tuned for that photo!

All in all, the Diorific nail polish collection for the holiday 2020 season is beautiful I hope you love this collection as much as I do! I can’t wait to share Dark Nights with you when I receive it!

Lancome La Vie est Belle edp review

‘Tis the season for a warm and sweet gourmand! I was thrilled when Lancome sent me their warm and sweet fragrance, Lancome La Vie est Belle edp. This cozy, floral gourmand fragrance is perfect for cooler temperatures, and the limited edition bottle is fabulous eye candy. Love!

For the holiday 2020 season, Lancome designed a sparkling bottle for their classic La Vie est Belle eau de parfum. The bottle has a sparkling little ribbon on its’ neck, and an ombre, silver glitter finish starting at the base, and thinning towards the middle. It’s festive, pretty, and wintery. This will be a beautiful bottle to keep on the counter, as well as give as a holiday gift to the fragrance fan on your list!

If you are a gourmand fan like me, you will love the heart notes of delicate Iris, tasty spun sugar, and warm vanilla. When you first spray Lancome La Vie est Belle edp on your wrist, the Iris scent will instantly capture you. Roughly five minutes into settling on your skin, a slightly spicy, and very warm scent takes over which balances out the Iris. You can detect the vanilla and sugar wrapped around the soft Iris scent. It’s pretty, warm, and ideal for cooler temperatures. This is definitely a warm and comforting scent for the late fall, winter, and early spring months. Loving it!

Lancome’s holiday 2020 beauty collection is selling fast. If you love gourmands, or have a gourmand fan on your holiday list, I highly recommend shopping early, and snapping up a bottle of this limited edition of Lancome’s La Vie est Belle edp now.
