One of my goals for #2019 is to try new things as often as I can. I have decided to get facials more often & simplify & switch up my #skincare routine. Today I walked into a skincare shop I have been wanting to check out for years & was pleasantly surprised to see they offer facials. It was such a magical experience I was so relaxed I fell asleep in the middle. To simplify my skincare I am adding more products that multi task the @doterra coconut oil works as a makeup remover or a moisturizer. I love my honest beauty face spray as a toner or refreshing mist . The most important step for me in the winter is keeping my lips hydrated. Before trying @sarahapp lipslip I had given up ! This stuff is magical 😍😍😍 . It leaves my lips feeling super smooth. Plus it isn't heavy or tacky. What do you do for your skincare routine? Do you get facials ? Where is your go to spot? #selfcare #hydrate # beauty #bloggernotvlogger #copyright https://www.instagram.com/p/BtmwNmnn51r/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1obwb187wc1ma

February 1st is tomorrow 🙈🙈🙈 how , when , what ??? Are all I keep asking myself. I'm not sure if I'm the only one? but I feel like everything from January 2nd till till today was a blur. I had a blank month ahead of me & I feel like I didn't use it to the fullest extent. I don't want to beat myself up because that won't help me in anyway. But I have to confess something it's hard out there and I sort of slacked off. It's very difficult to see former friends of mine moving on in life & feeling stuck in the same place it makes me think why bother trying? It's hard to struggle to rebuild a #socialmedia brand / persona/ carrer what ever you want to name it. When you see former classmates becoming #influencers on Instagram overnight & talking about fashion when you know they are former bullies who made fun of you for loving fashion years ago . It can be difficult to be happy for others & that's okay to admit.With gratitude & positivity being the insta buzz words in the orthodox community it can feel very alienating when you don't feel that stuff every day. Sure I am grateful to be alive & everyone loves postivity but can we be honest & admit that what we really connect to is someone who isn't afraid to share that they don't have it together. Am I a lesser human because I don't look insta worthy everyday or because I don't have dinner at all the hot spots . Or I don't respond to my dms or comments asap No !!! It means I'm human . I used to be that girl who spent thousands ( 15 to be exact) of dollars trying to fit in & be popular by shopping at #bendels & hanging out in Soho because that was the hot spot in those days. Looking back I am grateful that I experienced that pre social media time . I got to discover who I am with out the added pressure of having to document my every move. My goal for February is to let it all go and just be me. I realized if the time flies & I didn't Instagram enough or gain thousands of followers it's okay because it means I am living for me & not the screen. I'm not sure where February will take me but I'm leaving the page empty & I'll see where it takes me. #milkasmusing #realtalk #copyright #life #competition 📷 @picsart https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUs68inQHu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=128oeoahkxy3r

" Whoever said money can't solve your problems, must not have had enough money to solve them." Right ? WRONG !!! When I was a kid I got hit by a car twice in the same year. Everyone used to tell me you are so lucky you got so much money. Well with that $ 20,000 came two scars that I have on my hands for life, plus lots of emotional baggage. The day I got that money I thought all my problems were solved! 20,000 spent at the three B #bendels #barneys & #bergdorfs hoping that retail therapy would help me not need regular therapy . Plus traveling ( running away) every time life got hard & @chanel makeup isn't cheap the money is all gone. I still have my scars & my problems. Sure it's nice having money, it helps in shidduchim, schools , shopping but all it does is make some problems go away but it may bring others along the way. If your using money to mask your true emotions I guarantee you the price of happiness is not the prettiest pair of #redbottoms it's #chanel lipstick 🙈🤣 in all seriousness though , today being #bellletstalk day I want to encourage more people to reach out for help & talk. I'm sure that if I had spoken up earlier instead of trying to ignore the pain I would have saved a lot of #money . I know the new Instagram trend is #postivity & gratitude but even with all that , we all have days where we sometimes feel like life is hard & it's okay to share that. Because yes we all like a pretty picture but I like real people more. Trust me I was the girl who walked around in the designer clothes before being a fashion blogger was a thing they didn't make me any more happy ! All I ended up with was to many pairs of #michaelkors shoes sitting on a shelf & a bunch of designer #beauty products that are probably expired. True happiness comes when you deal with the pain. Than you can go ahead and buy all the swanky things you want simply because you like them , not because your trying to use them to solve your problems. #milkasmusing #thoughts #copyright #bloggernotvlogger #mentalhealth #emotions 📷 @picsart https://www.instagram.com/p/BtSH2Aznr39/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mee0vmzj3zun

#Pesach vacation who's going where & who can leverage their insta fame to get a free trip is the hot instagram topic of the moment. But what about those of us who are stuck at home still feeling like slaves in Egypt? This year was supposed to be the year I was finally going to get to go away for Pesach. The guy I almost got engaged to & his family go away every year with the entire extended family.I dreamt about this kind of holiday my whole life ! We were excited for this holiday since we met right before pesach of 2017. Now it's 2019 & I'm single AF & spending pesach with my parents , which as an only child means one thing constant work !🙈😥 cleaning,shopping, cooking .... How can you celebrate and embrace a holiday when it gives you so much stress & anger ? How do you feel free when you feel chained to the vacum & are constantly dusting and cleaning? Any fellow #middleeastern child can relate to how neurotic parents get when it comes to cleaning for #passover ? I may not be a big instagrammer yet ! But does someone want to sponsor the therapy sessions I'm going to need to deal with the anxiety monster that is Passover? If someone wants me to join their Pesach program I will talk about #shidduchim #anxiety whatever you want day & night. Plus I won't charge a shadchan fee if I make magic happen 🤣 In all seriousness though I'm truly dreading the long days of being reminded that this year I should have been having a meal with 30 + people instead it's three & once they go to sleep it's just me. Yes I know you can't be happily married until you learn to be happy alone. Nevertheless the holidays are the hardest time when you have no one or nothing to distract you, it's when being single feels like a slap in the face. If you have any tips on connecting to this holiday & feeling less anxious over all the work, all tips & advice are greatly appreciated. Thank you! ( if any of you are going to Morocco for Pesach please dm me ) #thoughts #milkasmind #stress #springcleaning #pesachgetaway #copyright 📷 @picsart https://www.instagram.com/p/BtM7y4cnLcN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lyz6awrsb2qg

#selfcare kinda night. To me part of self love is treating my skin right. Every night I will do the basic cleanse & moisturize. When I have time to go all out I add around 7 other steps. Because you can have the best makeup but with out a good canvas it's pointless. How do you practice self love? What is your skincare routine? #skincare #honestbeauty #pink #copyright #beauty https://www.instagram.com/p/Brjj6fvHiqv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i6dqdsvq2pmo

Quality not quantity!! That's what the ladies @mimulo taught me yesterday. I am used to buying a lot of flowers for less from the corner street florist. I was slightly taken aback that 40$ got me such a small bouquet this week. But when I stepped back & took a second look I realized just how unique and artistic this bouquet looked. The mimulo ladies are true artists who take the basics and elevate it into something magical ! Thank you for your quick and dedicated service it was a pleasure shopping with you. #flowers #art #crownheights #bloggernotvlogger #chic #shabbatshalom #goodshabbos #goodvibes #pink #white #copyrighted

A genius at work. I have this thing where I refuse to buy my vintage from stores, I feel like the true vintage lovers sell and unearth their tresaures in markets. I make an exception for Meira though. From the moment I met her 6 years ago, on my first visit to LA I knew I had found a true fellow vintage lover.Everything about Meira is perfection. I didn't know what I was looking for when I walked into her shop, but with in ten minutes she found the perfect pink piece for me, had it wrapped and ready to go. If your in LA you must !!! visit her #goldenagevintage garden shop. If your in the area make sure to visit her collab with one of the coolest designers @houseoflancry & my favorite LA florist @larklosangeles for a fun & fabulous mothers day event tomorrow from 7-10 pm 1436 s Robertson #bloggernotvlogger #vintage #shopping #glam #copyright #nofilterneededforthisbeauty #instafashion #event #LA #Lovelana #lanainla

One of my favorite things to do on a Sunday in #LA is visit the #melrosetradingpost . A massive thank you to one of my new favorite vendors @rojasclothing not only are his clothes perfection so is he. Freddie's devotion to his work shines through with every interaction that he has with his customers. I am loving my star beret and have gotten tons of compliments on it. Make sure to pick yours up at your next #mtp #sundayfunday☀️ or order one online. #Fashion #fun #berets #shopping #copyright #bloggernotvlogger #lanainla #lovelana

There's a cliche that "No one walks in LA" whoever said that hasn't met me. The one reason I love taking morning walks is that I get to see beautiful bushes like this one everywhere. How can you not be inspired to live your best life when you are surrounded with nature like this all around you? #flowers #morningwalk #lanainla #LoveLana #pink #thinkpink #flowerloversofinstagram #flowerlovers🌸 #copyrighted
