There’s nothing as classic as the colour of black and white. This is why we see black and white dresses every year. Black and white is sophisticated, classy, refined and stylish at the same time.

When I shop for gifts I try to find obscure or not so popular items for my friends. Sure I get them the latest and greatest gifts and gadgets but then they’ll have what everyone else has and that can get a little boring and expected.

If I were shopping for one of my little nieces (roughly middle school age and younger), I’d pick up this trio of fragrances from Pixi Beauty.
