The iPhone 7 is the latest greats phone to hit the market.  Fresh off the heels of Apple’s talk today I had to add it to today’s wish list.  I love all things Apple.  As a true Macolyte I’m required to get this update.  The iPhone 7 has water resistant not proof, has stereo speakers, and has a brand new camera.  No earbuds! Ok I still want one.  The big pink one, lol  apple.com

wednesday wishlist Dionysus GG Supreme embroidered bag

 

In seeing my two favorite things come together I couldn’t help but to add this gorgeous Gucci bag to my wishlist.  I have a real love for purses and lips so this Dionysus GG Supreme embroidered bag is prefect for me.  The shoulder bag is made in Italy and has a textured tiger head spur closure with hand-embroidered appliquĂ©s depicting a mouth and lightening bolts. Hand-painted edges, hand-stitched details, a pocket under the flap and camel microfiber lining with a suede-like finish.  I’m in love.  Gucci.com

#MACTaraji 102

 

I first spoke about the M.A.C. Cosmetics x Taraji P. Henson Collection | #MACTaraji on the blog last week.  Read about the full collection here.  The collection came out yesterday and the Taraji Glow is already sold out online.  The collection will be available at M.A.C.’s pro stores 09/08.  I really want Taraji Glow. Let’s hope I can get my chubby little hands on it.  maccosmetics.com

 

wishlist wednesday nike

 

After attending the Nike Chicago Tech Pack Studio Event I’ve been picturing myself in the fab new Nike line.  I sure I can put a whimsical spin on the athletic gear.  I think it’ll be great for the cold Chicago winter with it’s built in heat saver.  I’m wishing for it but I think the real challenge is what color to get.  nike.com

The stylings centered around Nike Tech Pack collection.  First worn by the athletes at the 2016 Rio Olympics, the tech pack collection offers a warm, light, breathable fleece meets archival design for the next generation of sportswear staples.  The event showcased how you can take athletic gear and incorporate it with your everyday fashions.  Whether it’s hipster look with a metallic skirt or chic coffee run look the Nike Tech Pack gear blended well.  I really liked how Nike used Chicago stylists to bring those ideas to life.   The Nike Chicago store also has made those same stylist available to help people with questions on styling the Tech Pack gear.  You can make an appointment online with them.
