January 2019 Round Up

One month into 2019 and I not only brought back my monthly beauty favorites series, but I’m bringing back my monthly round ups too! I’m not really sure why I discontinued this series, but it doesn’t matter because it’s back with this January 2019 Round Up and it’s here to stay! I love being able to chat about things that don’t make it into a blog post and I missed it over the past 6 months.

First off, I’m hosting a Galentine’s Day Sip ‘N Shop Event at the Jefferson Valley Mall this Thursday, February 7th, and I’m LOVE to see you there! This is the second event I’m hosting at the mall and the third time I’m working with them and I’m so excited! Get all of the details for the event here!

I’m going to start photographing my apartment to share on the blog this month! I really wanted to wait until all of the actual renovations were finished and it was mostly decorated until I did a big reveal and I wanted to take down all my Christmas decorations, but it’s finally time! I’m obviously going to do one big post with the entire apartment, but then I think I’m going to break it down by room and show more details and where I got my inspiration from! Look out for all of it in March.

My Hawaii posts are COMING! I know I know I’ve been talking about getting these up for months…literally…but I’m finally sitting down to write them. It’s just WAY too fucking cold to take outfit photos so I haven’t really been doing too much of that so I’ve been concentrating on getting everything together for these!

I’m partnering with an amazing home furnishings store in Westchester, Fofie & Mia’s, so be on the lookout for that in the next week but in the meantime here’s a sneak peek at some of the store!

I’ve mentioned a couple times that I’m taking a step back from Instagram and honestly since cutting down on the time I spend mindlessly scrolling on there I’m legitimately happier. I know it seems completely crazy, but it true! But one productive thing I did on the platform this month was categorize my content! I created hashtags for all of my home (#homeaftermidnite), travel (#travelaftermidnite) and Westchester (#westchesteraftermidnite) content! I also made all new Instagram story highlights and added a few new categories, so if it’s been a while since you’ve been on my profile you should definitely head over and check it out!

And a super exciting personal news…I paid off my credit card that I put a huge portion of my apartment renovation on and I’m actually in shock. I told myself I wasn’t going to book any trips or really dive into decorating my apartment until I paid it off, but saved every bit of extra income I had over the past few months and barely went out and it paid off (literally!) What’s one big win you had this month?
