As you can see on the outfits here. I have all styles for every taste! You can be on the dressy side, casual, edgy, flirty and I have them all for you. Most items here are affordable as you know most of the items I link from Amazon are within a budget friendly once. But for the staples I must say you must get a light jacket, knee high boots, ankle boots, Fall hat. I have linked some items here that are new to the eyes and some are like the older styles but mixed with the new styles.

I am thinking of creating more styles for y’all just let me know which one you want to see, you can live it here in the comments and or just message me on my instagram if you follow me there. I would be happy to work on some styles for you. I will also make some Fall styles from other stores so we have a variety to choose from. I don’t want y’all to be just getting things from just one particular store because we all have something that we really like from those fashion stores.

So I thank you for following along this post.

A Winery to Visit in the DMV

A Winery to Visit in the DMV

SHOP THE POST: SIMILAR DRESS BELOW

If you are looking for a place to go with friends with good view, live music and good wine, this place is a good winery to visit in the DMV. Since my girlfriends and I haven’t been out just girls trip we really enjoyed chit chatting here while sipping some wine.

Let me tell you about the place, in case you are looking for a winery if you live around the DMV. We went here at Stone Tower winery in Leesburg, VA. It is an hour away from DC, southern MD and northern VA area. There was a $6.50 toll fee along the way, but the place was worth all of it!

When we got there, I already thought this will look even better come fall so we surely will comeback! so Before you enter the parking lot there was a staff greeting everyone coming in and explaining where to park and What to do and where to stay and will hand a brochure with their menu.

My friend called ahead of time to see if we need reservations since it was 5 of us. They needed reservation to access the main Stone tower Winery area which was only accessible for their wine club members for now. But for walk ins, they offer their Harvest barn area and he menu was mostly barbecue.

A Winery to Visit in the DMV

So the first place to access was the harvest barn as you can see behind me, this is where you can order your wine and some merchandise, cheese and stuff. You can also sit inside and chit chat there. When we came in, there was a live music in from of the barn facing their outdoor patio were most people sit and chit chat because the view is much nicer outdoors. You can also bring your dogs as I see a lot of dog owner with their pets, such a huge winery. They also offer weddings in case you are looking for one. A Winery to Visit in the DMV

We ordered chicken wings, salt, ribs and Mac and cheese as those were the choices in their barbecue menu. We tried different wines they have 4 items 2 red wines, 2 white wine and 2 rosé. We fell in love with the Rosé so we ended up ordering one big bottle, It was good for 5 people even though it was huge. Good enough to last us for about 4 and half hours chit chatting while sipping.

They offer a tour in the vineyard but we did not do it, as you can see behind me the plus place is huge. And there were a lot of spots to sit down and chit chat. They also have a pop up flower store were you can buy fresh flowers. A Winery to Visit in the DMV

How We Are Saving on Hotel Bookings

How We Are Saving on Hotel BookingsHow We Are Saving on Hotel Bookings

SHOP THE POST:

Before this Summer ends, my goal is to be able to continue to enjoy small perks like staycations for the family.  They have the best price possible compared to all hotel bookings combined!

Now I told you how top save on hotel booking, now let me brag about this Hotel that we stayed in Washington, DC. This is the second hotel we stayed at in the Nation’s Capital, the First was the Kimpton Hotel.

Every time I book a hotel, I always look for the amenities for the kids because it is their happy place. So when I saw Hotel Zena and its gorgeous roof top pool. I booked it right away and it did not disappoint, it is so beautiful. They also offer Z shed where you can rent board games, Nintendo switch which the kids enjoyed as the pool closed early on Sunday. They also have a billiards table were me and Novel was able to enjoy as well.How We Are Saving on Hotel Bookings

As for the The Hotel, it is part Art Museum and part hotel. You can find a big wall art of RBG, it is actually made of tampons and the reception desk has all these fabulous heels. and all around you can see all the beautiful art work. You do not want to come out of the hotel because of its beauty.

They also have a bar inside and roof top lounge but we did not get to enjoy it because it was close on Sundays. They open on Tuesdays were they have most patrons as per the receptionist. The staff also I wanna say was very friendly, helpful and accommodating! That even made our stay lovely!

As for the rooms, we love the bed it is so comfy and also the bathroom! It was al gorgeous and at the same time very functional, we got the city view!

SHOP THIS DRESS HERE!

Around the area, they have restaurants close by but we just had our food delivered through uber eats, we really did not want to come out more than we we are supposed too. We just enjoyed outside to see the surroundings which is the beautiful Thomas circle! They have a park in the middle were we see a lot of dog mom and dads.

We were supposed to try the scooter to ride around DC but we were not lucky to find one that is close to us. We will surely try it on our next staycation adventure again here in DC as I mention because I can save a lot from books through Staypia. You can now download their app through Google play store and apple App Store and it is free, signing up is free as well so you get to enjoy the member price discount which is huge!!

I hope I was able to share to all you who loves to travel and stay in hotel about this website and also to share to you about this beautiful hotel that you may want to check out.

Thank you for stopping by and see you on our next staycation… I promise it will be worth your while if you are planning on staying in a Hotel in DC.

Must Have from My Ulta Beauty Haul

Must Have from My Ulta Beauty Haul

Sharing all the good make up finds I just bought on this Ulta Beauty Haul top help you see if you need to buy it. To be honest with y’all, this is my very first time shopping at Ulta and also my first time getting these many make up in one sitting. But I couldn’t resist all these good stuff that I found that is a must have in every make up bag.

Let us start with…

IT COSMETICS PRIMER

This primer is very good and helps my makeup last longer and evens out the skin tone. Such a good buy!

ESTEE LAUDER LIQUID FOUNDATION

This  liquid foundation gives a streak-free finish and another way to that even out skin tone making my face looks flawless.

ANASTASIA CONTOUR KIT

This contour kit is so good specially if you have fair skin as the color really smoothens the look and defines the contour of your face.

MAC LIPSTICK

I got the red like the one I am wearing here and the nude color so the best of both worlds open neutral and the bold color.

IT COSMETIC GEL EYELINER

Love the consistency of this gel eyeliner and it is really dark close to being black.

SALLY HANSEN SALON GEL POLISH STARTER KIT

This is the best as I usually do my own nails and very rare that I go to the nail salon. This is a total game changer as this makes the nail polish last longer than usual for me. It has everything you need as if you have been to the nail salon.

So I hope you find this post helpful as I want to give insight in case you are looking for new make up to buy to narrow down your search.

Have a wonderful weekend and see you again Monday on the next blog post.
