City Girl Savings


For a very long time I've always struggled with the concept of saving money. It's always been a little difficult for me to do. Managing my funds has never been fun for me because there are always sacrifices that have to be made. But as I got older I really started to value the importance of saving money and making smart choices when it comes to spending. Considering the fact that I am a college student and a girl who lives for experiences and loves to eat and travel, I've learned how to live that A-list life on a B-list budget. 
I recently stumbled upon this website that is designed to help women reach their financial goals while maintaining a fabulous lifestyle. I'm so happy that I found this because I feel like it's exactly what I needed to give me that extra push into the right path financially. For a reasonably low price, City Girl Savings allows you to make a personalized budget portfolio. You can decide on your financial goal,  (i.e eliminate debt, saving more, spending better) along with a date that you wish to have that goal completed. When all of the required information is submitted, CGS will analyze all of your goal and financial info and generate a budget that will help you meet that goal. It's really easy!

                               
This website has everything you need. From fashion and beauty tips to financial tips, its all there. There's even a CGS book club. The support system is great as well, every member is there to help the next.I think it's very important for women to be financially independent, especially those who want to live such fabulous lives. There is nothing fabulous about financial struggles or debt, so lets start making better choices in regards to saving and spending. I encourage all my ladies who are currently in a financial rut to click on the link below and sign up! Also follow City Girl Savings on Instagram and Twitter @citygirlsavings for other updates.

Poshmark!

Like all women I have a closet full of clothes, shoes, purses, and accessories. From things I've only worn once to things that I've never worn at all with tags still on them. I used to have a serious problem with parting with old items or items that I never wore. I had this mindset that "eventually" I will wear them again. But eventually never came and all I was doing was hoarding. I realized that the only way to make room for new things is to get rid of the old. That's when I discovered Poshmark, and my life got a little easier. 
Poshmark is an app that allows you to sell your pre-loved items and purchase other pre-loved items (if you want). And it's super easy! All you have to do is post your listing and share it. I started selling items really quickly. The demand for my items and they way people responded to my closet really inspired me and made it easier to part with things I thought would be hard to let go of.
I encourage anyone who is trying to find an easy way to get rid of some of the clutter in your closet to download the Poshmark app and start selling! And while you're at it, Follow Me! :) 
Happy selling & Shopping! 

Bendel Girl.

I have always loved the sophistication and simplicity of Henri Bendel. Everything remains classic while still managing to be up-to-date with today's latest trends. I am currently drooling over the Carlyle collection. Everything is absolute perfection. You can take a look at a few of my favorites from this collection along with a bunch of other things that I have my eye on!

What is She Listening To??


Kyle ft Kehlani- Just a Picture
A lot of people know the love I have for Kyle. I've been a fan for a long time so when I heard that he was putting out some new stuff I got very excited. I am not ashamed to say that this song has been played ever since they released. I feel like I've said these exact words to a certain someone at some point in my life. Listen and fall in love.


Fabolous ft Chris Brown- She Wildin'
Come on, its Fab. Need I say anything else?





Nicki Minaj ft Jessie Ware- Crying Game
I have always been a Nicki supporter and I am so happy that the Pink Print sounds like the "old Nicki". This is one of my favorite songs on this album. 



Diggy-Honesty
This song is just really cute. And I'm in love with how simple the video is. 

The Devil Wears Prada...And So Does Cupid


Now that you've spent tons of time and money making sure your significant other had a Christmas and a New Years worth never forgetting, are you prepared for the next major holiday? Didn't think so. Valentine's Day is approaching and it will be here sooner than you think. V Day has never been my thing, which is strange considering I'm one of the biggest hopeless romantics in the world. Everything about love makes my melt and tear up....EXCEPT Valentine's Day. I don't really have a reason why, I've just always been turned off by this holiday. But that doesn't mean I haven't been spending time coming up with super cute and romantic date ideas for my Valentine and I. 
While my mind was running wild with all these ideas, I realized that I am really good at planning and coming up with creative dates. Not just for Valentine's Day but for any day of the week. I'm always thinking of something creative, fun, and romantic to do with my guy. However, there aren't enough days in a week or hours in a day to do everything. I also realized how hard it is for some people to come up with date ideas. There are people who really don't know where to begin when it comes to planning a date or getting a gift for their significant other. As I thought about those people I thought about how I have all of these ideas and how selfish of me it would be to continue to hold onto all of these ideas and not help another couple out. 
If you are one of those people who don't know where to begin when it comes to dates and gifts, have no fear! I am here to help you out. This year, I've decided to play cupid and help those in need. Those of you who are having a bit of a rough time coming up with gift and date ideas, I am your official date consultant this year! I'm here to make this V Day a little easier for you. 
For only $5 I am offering my services and helping you plan the perfect Valentine's Day. From the activity down to the gift, I'm here to assist you. Click on the link to my fiverr profile and lets get started planning the perfect date!
