My ♥ stopped at Whit.




I love every single one of these frames. In fact I want to wear that turquoise dress with the bow every day this Spring. The brown shoes are so chic, I can see why she decided to make them the constant in each pic. Beautiful!

Beauty Heartst♥pper: DKNY Summer.

Luck. The thing that has been coming my way in the last two weeks. I returned home from a day I'd rather forget to find a bottle of DKNY Summer at home waiting for me :) 


The skyscraper design is fun and young and worthy of being displayed in any bathroom. The scent although slightly musky, is definitely summery and makes you want to do a hop, skip and a jump in its honour. 


The perfume opens with notes of pink grapefruit, juicy passion fruit and red berries, followed by jasmine, magnolia and lychees. White musk, creamy sandalwood and teak are the base notes of fragrance.




The fragrance is inspired by life in the city and you can tell. The best part for me is that it stayed on the ENTIRE day (no spice). And it's not one of those perfumes that knocks you over, it's subtle and fresh.


You must try it, and love it, like I do.

Beauty Heartst♥pper: Carolina Herrera 212 VIP.


I ♥ 212. I've been using it for years. So naturally I was very excited to see this little number. The packaging is stylish and chic with the very Gossip Girl-esque "Are you on the list?" down the front. 


212 VIP was created by by the perfumer Alberto Morillas and is “inspired by New York’s young creative people”. Notes include passion fruit, rum, musk, gardenia, tonka bean and vanilla.


I feel like it's more of a nighttime fragrance because it definitely has a sexy side. Imagine Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb, but less sweet. It's ultra-feminine, sophisticated with the musky allure of 212 Sexy. It lasts for hours and every once in a while you'll notice it and enjoy the sensuous decadence it brings. It's clearly designed to be youthful and trendy and well, it is. Huge fan!
