if it suits your fancy...

as I, Alyssa, had promised, here is the first and fabulous friday post.
(we will try our best to keep this a weekly thing. no promises, though.)
This will be a mix of things that i'm loving this week.

1. my most recent favorite song:
(my favorite song can change on a weekly or even daily basis,
so this isn't really saying much. just a current fave.)


Fairytale by Cloud Cult.
this isn't the official music video, however, the lyrics are the part i'm the biggest fan of. it's basically an intertwined mix of fairytales turned into a song. so good.

2. my current favorite make-up product:
the elf cream eyeliner. it's perfect. good pigmentation, and they're only $3 each.
i have them in black, and today i just bought the coffee brown color.
they go on super easy (especially if you have the elf angled liner brush. it makes winged eye-liner a much easier task...) seriously, a really great buy.


3. my latest favorite thrifting purchase:
vintage etienne aigner loafers. they're the coolest old lady shoes ever. 


don't be too jealous.

4. latest and greatest scent: Boyfriend by Sephora.
this one was a birthday gift. every time i wear this perfume, i get compliments about it. it's a really light, sweet smell, the perfect summery scent. also, my secret perfume trick: the front/back spritz. apparently it's not something everyone does, but that's what i've done for forever. i always spray perfume on my neck, both the front and the back. then you're encompassed in your lovely signature scent. trust me, this plan is fool-proof. 


5. last but not least, and my favorite of the friday five: Cat-eye glasses by Ray-ban. 
my new specs. i just got them today and i have already fallen in love with them. the shape, the color. all of it. 


aren't they wonderful? i feel like a librarian that's an undercover secret agent when i wear them...
shy, quiet, but with a secret life. or something like that.

well reader, i hope you enjoyed Alyssa's friday five, next week it will be mal's turn to share her faves.
but that's all for now. 
-the minds of mal.lys.
