My Vanity

Hi Loves! So today I'm sharing my vanity with you all. Having a designated are where I can do my make up everyday is very inspiring and motivating. When I decided do it I had no clue where to start and I really didn't know exactly what I wanted yet. All I knew was that wanted something small, different and cheap. We all know that when it comes to buying furniture it quickly adds up and becomes expensive. So I came across this desk from Ikea which I'm mostly used as a desk and not really a vanity. I thought it was perfect because it had a glass counter top and one large drawer plus it was small. I started off just with the desk because the mirror didn't come with it so it was purchased separately. I didn't come across the mirror until about a year later while shopping at Marshalls. Luckily I have a handy husband that managed to attach it to the desk. It was challenging but it was worth it because it was exactly what I wanted.


So this is the way it turned out. I think the mirror fits perfectly and its the perfect size of mirror. The ghost chair was also purchased at Ikea and the sequins pillow is from Home Goods. 


I like to keep my vanity clean and organized. For the most part all the decor and organizers we purchased at Home Goods. I love flowers I love to have them all over my home. When I saw these flowers I thought they were perfect for my vanity. They are white and come in a rose gold sphere vase. I also love to have jewelry organizers and where I can display my statement necklaces. Basically any items that inspire me.


I also like to keep my current perfume on hand especially if they have a cute packaging because in a sucker for cute packaging..lol Reason why I display anything in cute packaging.


I'm a hug fan of jewelry. I have tons and for the people that know they know I'm not lying...lol. I just believe that accessories give outfits and totally different meaning. On my vanity I like to display my current favorite statement necklace which is this one from J. Crew. I also like to keep a tray to place my everyday watches. These adorable deer head ring and earring holder is my fave this is where i keep my stud earring that I wear on daily basis.


In the large drawer I store all my make....well most of it because I like to display my eye shadow pallets around my beauty room. I used a couple of acrylic organizers to keep my blushes, bronzers, some individual eye shadows and lipstick in place. 

I've had my vanity for almost three year it has hold up pretty good and I can say that I've gotten my money's worth. From time to time I like to rearrange and change the decor to give it a different look and for inspiration.

Well this is it and I hope you enjoyed my vanity tour!


Thanks for reading 😄

Xoxo, Vanessa 😘
