#BLOGGERSDOITBETTER: Dream Vanity and Organization Inspiration

Those who know me already know that I have a major makeup storage issue!

If I had it my way I would have a small makeup room where I could get ready in the morning, blog, and maybe even do my homework during the school year. My own little space! However, since living in a small apartment doesn't really give me this option I am taking baby steps in order to create the space I want.

I currently store my makeup on the floor *gasp* haha, but I'm telling the truth, this is real life! I keep most of products cluttered around the base of a floor length mirror where I sit on the floor and get ready. Then the majority of my lip products are in a small organizer and crammed into a few empty candle jars on top of the smallest IKEA dresser you've ever seen. It's a tragedy.

When I have the opportunity (and cash flow) to do so I am going to re-do my space and invest in a vanity, some decor, and most importantly organization. Below I have included some Instagram photos that serve as inspiration for what I would love my space to be.

In a perfect world I would have cute prints; have you seen Joanna Pop's work on Instagram?! To die for, and she's Canadian! A large framed mirror and great lighting (of course). I would have a large white desk, drawers or no drawers it wouldn't matter because sitting on top of it would be a *drumroll please* Original Beauty Box! Which I am ordering soon! Woo hoo! As well as an acrylic lipstick organizer, and a large stylish tray with all my fragrance sitting pretty inside.

Like I said the first step I am taking is ordering an Original Beauty Box but I am still deciding between the Original (four drawer) and Deluxe (five drawer, shown above) sizes! Which do you think I should order?

I'll have to wake up from my day dream now! I hope you enjoyed this post and I would love to know how do you like to store your makeup? What does your dream vanity look like?

{Top 5} Beauty & Fashion Instagram Accounts

Good morning!

For those of you who missed the last one, I've decided to start a mini- series every second Sunday where I share my current favorites; bloggers, their blogs, and other social media outlets. Last time I shared my Top 5 Favorite You Tube Channels, and today I wanted to share my favorite Instagram accounts. This was incredibly hard for me to narrow down to only five because there are so many gorgeous accounts out there.

These girls not only have gorgeous photos, but also post fashion, beauty, and skin care tips on their feeds. Not to mention they're gorgeous themselves. If you don't follow any of them I highly recommend you do!
