If you love perfume, these atomizers are a must-have! You have probably heard tons about the Travelo. There are many other brands on the market as well. You basically spray some of your perfume into the container, close the lid and bring this with you! It's perfect for traveling and I have already bought a few and loaded them with fragrance!

Mirrored Tray from Target
This is a picture of the tray I purchased from Target. It is not available online, but it is in stores.
It can be used for many purposes, but I will be using it for perfumes.

Updated Make-up/Perfume Storage
Last year, I showed you a few of my storage projects including my closet and my make-up. Well, as much as I love my make-up desk/vanity, I was not getting the proper use out of it. It is downstairs and the lighting is not very good there. So I tried the Sterlite drawers and got tired of that option. So here is what I came up with!
This is a collection of my most used lipsticks and glosses as well as brushes. I used some plastic organizers I bought from both ebay and Target. But it look kind of cluttered on my dresser so I placed the organizers in this basket. I don't use full make-up everyday, but I at least try to wear lipstick, mascara and some blush. My favorite blush, M.A.C.'s Her Blooming Cheek, is hiding between the two lipstick organizers. It's bright pink, but does not look harsh on. Just gives a healthy glow!
The rest of my make-up is in my train case.
This is a basket for towels (it even says the word towels on the opposite side but I turned it around)
It both houses and hides my collection and still allows me to access everything easily!
These are my perfumes still on the cake stand! If you look closely you will see the Juicy box in the back just waiting to be given away to a lucky follower! BTW, did you enter?
I really like to re purpose items for organizing. A towel basket and a cake stand was a lot more inexpensive than fancy organizers. The basket I purchased at Marshall's and the cake stand at Target. Both were a little under ten dollars.

Harajuku Girl and Tote
I bought a few cute things recently. First this Harajuku Girls perfume in Snow Bunnies. I am crazy about that bottle. It's so adorable.
I also bought this straw tote bag. I've seen bags like this by Michael Kors and Coach for a lot more. And I like the built-in ribbon detail .

Cake Stand = Perfume Stand
I love giving a new purpose for things around the house. I was looking for something to place my perfume bottles on and I decided to use a cake stand. The clear glass goes nicely with the bottles. These are my four favorite scents:
Victoria's Secret Dream Angels Heavenly
Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel
Viva La Juicy by Juicy Couture
Can Can by Paris Hilton

Perfume, Nudity and Bowler Hats
I've loved hats forever! I usually wear fedoras, newsboys and floppy "diva" hats. But I decided it was about time to go for this bowler style. At first I wasn't sure if I'd look too much like a NKOTB fan from back in the day (which I was) but you know what, I had to have it! Here is the Coco Mademoislle ad featuring the beautiful Keira Knightly that also inspired me to buy a bowler. My husband also bought me that perfume for Christmas last year and I love it. If you haven't tried it, check it out. It's lighter and fruitier than the classic No.5 and a little more modern.
Here's my take on it. I decided to wear a bit more clothes (although I included a gratuitous teeny bit of my belly)...

Beauty Buzz: Life's Fragrances
It's funny, for every part of my life, there has been a fragrance associated with it. First, my ex-boyfriend and I both wore Escape by Calvin Klein and I thought that was cute (he wore the men's cologne). Then my roommate in college wore Amarige and that's been my one mainstay perfume for years. Then, when I graduated from college, my suite mates bought me a Tommy Girl set to celebrate my independence (the slogan went something like that). My former boss bought me Pleasures as a going away present and finally my husband bought me Coco Mademoiselle after I told him how much I liked it. Does your perfume history tell a story and bring back memories? Share your favorites!
