PINROSE: A Perfume by Any Other Name Wouldn't Smell as Sweet

Pinrose is a luxury fragrance company that magnificently blends quirkiness and elegance, both in their adorable packaging and their beautiful scents. I got my Pinrose starter pack in the mail a while ago, and have been anxious to do this post because I didn't want to open any of them before I took pictures! Now that that's done, I can honestly say Pinrose's scents aren't like any of the ones I've smelled at the perfume counter. They're each long lasting, distinct, and very unique. So unique in fact, they even have a quiz to tell you which scent would be the perfect fit for you! (I got Cuddle Punk, and I would have to say they were spot on. I felt the name alone suited me!) 

If you love getting cute stuff in the mail, and you love smelling good (and really, who doesn't love those things?) I highly recommend you take the Pinrose quiz here, and order yourself the starter kit. You won't regret it. In it you'll receive 13 adorable fragrances, which are all super easily applied through the scented towelette. Pretty genius, huh? I thought so too.

(Pictured in this post are the following scents: Pinrose, Pillowtalk Poet, Sugar Bandit, Tambourine Dreamer, Campfire Rebel, Surf Siren, Cuddle Punk, Merry Maker, Renegade Starlet, Treehouse Royal, and Lovebug.)

Though Pinrose gifted me this starter kit, I pinky promise they did not gift me a bunch of stuff to say about them. All opinions expressed are my own.

WARBY PARKER: Home Try-On Service

Haskell in Crystal

Carnaby in Blue Coral

Cass in Blue Slate

Daisy in Aurelia Tortoise

Brooks in Oak Barrel
Out of the five pairs, Brooks was my favorite. The tortoise coloration and the large frames give the glasses a classic vibe. Though I love the look of glasses, I don't wear the ones I have now very often because I don't like seeing the frames in my peripheral vision. Brooks frames are large enough to where it doesn't feel like I'm looking through a window. Warber Parker's home try-on service is a really convenient way to get all the choices online eyeglass shops offer, with the "safety" of going in to a store. I have a pretty round face and would have been way too worried about it to just order frames right off the bat. The service also allows you to go about your daily business wearing the glasses, which really gives the wearer a good feel for if the glasses are worth the investment. Luckily though, none of the glasses are outrageous in price; after wearing each pair around, I think I'm going to order two pairs!

WP's home try-on service is simple, convenient, and free! I highly recommend utilizing this awesome deal if you're in the market for a new pair of stylish spectacles.

Warby Parker's Spring Collection


As a girl with a pretty serious eye stigma, I relish the prospect of buying a new pair of stylish spectacles. Warby Parker has been a go-to website for me for glasses inspiration for some time now, and I couldn't be more excited about their new Spring line which just launched today

I love that Warby Parker has released their Spring collection in January - New Years is the perfect time to update just about anything in your life, and your glasses should be no exception! The Spring glasses line up at WP is such a perfect blend of classic and modern, drawing inspiration from the deep sea. I love the titanium, the blues, corals, and sandy tones, and the tortoise finishes that resemble rippling water oh-so perfectly. I can't wait to try on my favorite pairs using their home try on program, which is also available today for the newest spring styles!
