BEAUTY - Signature Scent

My favorite perfume is Clinique's Happy - I love the way it smells, it's been my signature scent for a couple of years now.

Lately I've noticed that I don't smell it on myself a few minutes after I've sprayed it. I think that I've just gotten used to it, so I don't notice it anymore. So I'm thinking of switching things up and maybe finding a new signature scent. But where to start...

Daily Candy had a video on Finding your perfect scent. They suggest starting off my looking at the bottles and picking one you like, then testing the fragrance. I love the way perfume bottles look- they can be sculptural, like this new fragrance from Jennifer Aniston, I can't wait to smell this
or glittery and cut like crystal, I especially like the logo detail, how it looks like a wax seal



or just fun, this fragrance is from Kate Spade and named flirt, love the name!




(All of these fragrances can be found at Sephora)
What's your signature scent? Any recommendations?
I guess I'm off to find out if the fragrance matches my expectations of the bottle.

Find a Penny

Just a quick word about the purpose of this blog - I wanted to create a space where I could keep track of all the fun, cute, & amazing things I find on the web. You know all the stuff that you see that you would love to do if you only had the time/money. A place where you can easily find the links that people send you instead of endlessly searching through all the emails if your inbox. A place to show off the cute stuff that you create. So I decided that this would be it for me. This is the place! (And it's not even in Utah)

It's like when you are walking around and suddenly look down and there's penny. Pick it up and tuck it into your pocket for luck.
