The soft sounds of a lana del rey song drift from my speakers as the scent of freshly brewed coffee envelopes the room like a familiar hug. The birds sing outside indicating that spring is around the corner.
hello loves ♡
The sounds of birds singing their spring tunes highlight the mornings and the sun shines in the blue sky for longer — spring is near again. It’s the time of year I find most dreamy. Everything is starting to awaken fresh and renewed, ready for the time to spring to life again after a cold winter. With the beauty of an impending spring comes the feeling of love in the air as well. To celebrate the love of spring, I wanted to focus on the most important love — self love.
Everyone deserves to love themselves and one of my favorite ways to do this is allowing myself to feel closer to the goddess of self love, Aphrodite. Not only will this help you feel good about myself, but you’ll be left feeling like an ethereal goddess too!
♡ Feel closer to aphrodite by lighting your favorite candles, especially pink and white ones, and drawing a comforting bubble bath. Add rose milk to your bath to soften your delicate skin.
♡ In your most favorite tea cup pour fresh brewed tea and add rose petals and honey. Sip it slowly as you think of only dreamy things that bring you joy.
♡ Pull out your fancy stationery sets and pen love letters to your favorite people in your life. Write one to yourself as well for a little self love.
♡ Be sure to surround yourself with beautiful rose quartz crystals. To welcome in more love for yourself, put one under your pillow before drifting off to your dreamland.
♡ Wear your most delicate and pretty of pearls with every outfit.
♡ Feel like the ethereal love goddess herself by putting on ethereal dresses that make you feel romantic and whimsical.
♡ Lastly, write a list of all the things you love about yourself. Read the list to yourself while looking at yourself in a mirror. Remember you are beautiful and lovely as you are. ♡
Wrapped up in my soft pink paris blanket, I type away at my pink keyboard as my creative ideas flow freely. My twisted peppermint candle burns on the table next to me as the scent of the sugared snow and vanilla buttercream fill the room. With my self concept playlist playing in the background I feel content.

hello loves ♡
With spring coming up right around the corner, I have been focusing on self love and having a better attitude about how I think about myself as a fresh start. I thought it would be lovely to share one of my favorite playlist to help achieve a better self concept of yourselves as well! This is also the perfect getting ready playlist to put you in the right state of mind. I hope you loves enjoy it!
Dreamy, calming music flows from my phone as I type away at my pink quartz keyboard. The comfortingscent of freshly baked sugar cookies mixes with vanilla and crushed peppermint, creating the coziest feeling.
hello again loves ♡
The faint sound of morning birds singing drift into the room, alerting me that spring is just around the corner. As i slowly beging to open my eyes, I gently stretch my body after a full night of beauty sleep. Looking toward the window, I bask in the glow of the early morning light; the morning sun still hiding beneath the horizon just waiting to say hello again. Adoring this time of day, I simply take a few moments to feel at peace as I gaze out the window. The sky is a beautiful light grey with the remainder of the previous night sky still lingering; there’s just something about this time of day that brings me so much joy.
While still cozy and wrapped in my furry pink blanket, I reach over for my phone opening my Pinterest app. Wanting a few more moments in a warm bed, I work on pinning aesthetic things I feel inspired by and my affirmations board as a way to start the day off in a positive mindset. As I do this, I make sure to sip on a glass of water.
Once I am finished with my water, I delicately pull back my warm blankets and step out of bed to start my morning. Grabbing my pink satin Victoria’s Secret robe, I make my way toward the bathroom to brush my teeth before moving on to washing my face. Once finished I pick out a face mask – today’s being a peel off one called strawberries & champagne.
As my face mask is drying, I begin to make an iced oat milk coffee. The smell of freshly brewed coffee whirls around the house as I add heart shaped ice to my pink studded Starbucks tumbler. Sipping on the oat milk iced coffee, I savor the soft quietness of the early morning. I just adore being the only one awake on an ethereal morning like this – it’s absolutely tranquil. While I continue to enjoy my delicious coffee, I begin to journal and go over my planner to see what the day ahead holds.
Iced coffee finished, I finally change from my satin VS stripped pajamas and slip into my favorite workout clothes – my aerie flared leggings and my baby pink hello kitty milk bar hoodie. The first thing i start with every morning is pilates as it’s the perfect start to any workout and warms me up for the rest of them. Onced finished with pilates, I move on to my hiit cardio routine to fully wake up. After completeing my morning workouts, it’s time to step into the shower.
The warm water and steam evelopes me like a comforting hug, warming the muscles I just worked.
Feeling rejuvinated and ready for the day, I step out of the shower and dress in a cozy outfit for a day of working from home – the fluffiest of pink sweaters, basic soft leggings from aerie, and comfy socks. I continue with my full morning skincare routine to keep my skin bright and glass like. Skin looking smooth and doll like, I finally style my hair. Freeing my long silky hair from any tangles, I add some loose beach waves and tie my hair up into an adorable half up/half down ponytail and add a pink ribbon for an added cute touch.
My morning routine complete, I make healthy green smoothie and brew a fresh pot of delightful green tea and am ready to go about the rest of my day.
Swirls of sparkling sugared berries dance in the air as it intertwines with the light, airy smell of pink cotton candy. With fairy dust glittering the room and delicate snowflakes falling, the energy feels magical.
Hello my angels!
Fluffy, white snowflakes delicately tumble from the sky; as though they’re doing the dance of the sugar plum fairy. The trees all around the cottage seem as though they’re glittering in the remaining sunlight. Their branches bare and instead covered in winter’s frosting; the scenery is dreamy and peaceful.
It’s the most magical time of year once again. The time of year that makes me want transform into a soft and ethereal angel. Below you’ll find my favorite tips that’ll have you feeling instantly angelic!
♡ Collect dreamy books like magical fairytales and enchanting stories. As well as finding journals with whimsical designs to share your deepest secrets and dreams. Hide away some pressed flowers like delicate, pink roses for added softness.
♡ Wear elegant dresses with light and airy materials. Flowing tulles and soft satins in dreamy pastels will have you instantly feeling angelic. Feel ethereal even when you sleep by choosing silky nightgowns and robes.
♡ Make a dreamy cup of rose tea in your fanciest of teacups and have a darling tea party for one. Pick up one of your favorite fairytales and get swept up in the magic as you sip your tea.
♡ Every angel needs the perfect scent to describe them. With a few sprays of your signature scent, you’ll feel every part the dainty princess.
♡ Gently brush out your tresses, leaving them soft and silky. Add some light curls and a pretty satin ribbon to complete the look.

The delectable scent of cinnamon sugar swirls with the soft smell of churned butter, powdered sugar, agave, and delightful vanilla bean as the stream of smoke dances from an incense stick. The delicate glow of my fairy lights illuminate the room, creating a cozy vibe.
Picture this … the sky is overcast with beautiful grey clouds, theres the slight smell of rain in the air as a crisp chill gently kisses your cheeks, orange and red leaves crunch under your feet as you stroll about and take in the beautiful autumnal landscape around you; autumn is here once again. It’s the perfect scene that puts you at ease and chases away all your worries for the moment.
While it may not be like that right now because it’s still summer complete with the heat, I’d still like to think about those autumn memories that make me happy. With all that’s happened this year, and 2020 continuing to 2020, I felt the need to share that scene with fellow autumn lovers to evoke those same feelings of peace. The best way I figured I could do that was to create a peaceful, cottagecore playlist full of cozy songs that truly make me think of breezy afternoons surrounded by the changing leaves.
The light sound of rain taps on the windows as the scent of fresh baked gingerbread swirls about. With a lavender Christmas sweater on, a delightful iced peppermint mocha in hand, and the sound of Christmas music playing, I feel extra festive.
Hello my Snow Fairies!
The trees outside are lightly dusted with winter’s fluffy white frosting and the ground below glistens with freshly fallen snowflakes, making the scenery look as though it is a whimsical winter forest. Invoking a magical feeling, it makes me dream of being an ethereal snow fairy.
With this dreamy idea in mind, I wanted to share the little things I do during the winter months that make me feel like a snow fairy!
♡ Spritz yourself with Snow Fairy by Lush – This has always scent from Lush has been a favorite of mine for years now. Not only does it have a darling name, but the enchanting scent of sweets make you feel magical!
♡ Use delicate pink lip gloss – What better way to feel like a delicate fairy than to use a pretty soft pink shade?
♡ Listen to The Nutcracker soundtrack – It’s the perfect time of year to twirl around to the music of The Nutcracker while getting ready; making you feel ethereal and as though you’re off to the land of sweets.
♡ Burn a Twisted Peppermint candle in your room –While making yourself feel like a snow fairy, you can also make your home feel like the perfect cozy dreamland fit for a fairy. With notes of sugared snow, buttercream vanilla, and of course peppermint, this candle is perfect for this!
♡ Wear delicate makeup with whispie eyelashes and a simple flick of eyeliner – Simple & angelic makeup is not only adorable, but can instantly make you feel as though you truly are a snow fairy. Dust some iridescent glitter across your eyes for some added magic!
♡ Make a dainty charm bracelet with a snowflake charm your signature – One of my favorite winter accessories has always been a Swarovski crystal charm, whether that be as a pendant on a necklace or a dainty charm bracelet. I’ve always felt a snowflake charm bracelet upon delicate wrists made for a dreamy winter look.
♡ Wear light pink mittens with tiny bows – Soft, fuzzy mitten will keep delicate fingers warm and toasty in the snowy weather. Wearing them in a baby pink shade with little bows will make you feel much more the part of a snow fairy.
♡ Allow a bit of blush to dance across your nose for a darling “kissed by the cold” look – Add some across delicate cheekbones as well for an added fairy feel!
♡ Bask in the stillness of snowy nights as the snowflakes dance and glisten – When the dreamy moonlight is glowing down on the freshly fallen snow making it glisten, take in the angelic scenery. Feel the peace of a still winter night as the snowflakes dance.
♡ Carry peppermint essential oils with you everywhere you go for a quick pick me up – This is the perfect way for an enchanting winter pick me up through out the day. Not only does it smell delightful, but it will put you in the holiday mood as well!

Hello my Snow Fairies!
With snow falling softly outside and the sounds of delightful Christmas music playing, it’s clear that December is here. Being that it is once again the most wonderful time of the year, I’ve been feeling inspired to write dreamy winter posts.
Unfortunately I never finished my Halloween posts due to once again falling into a depressive episode and letting it win. Therefore stopping me from doing something I love so much, which is this blog.
That’s why I will not be attempting blogmas this year, however I am going to post angelic holiday/winter themed posts. Though this time I’m just going to post whenever I feel like it instead of making a schedule. I feel that doing it that way will be much better for me.
Anyway, to start off this magical month, I thought I’d share some of the goals I hope to achieve this season!
♡ Write More Often – As I’ve mentioned in my intro, I’ve been letting terrible mental health affect affect me in the way that I rarely do the things I love most anymore, but I really want to work on that so that I can write more this season. I love creating my blogs, it truly brings me happiness. I also have so many ideas including ones in my drafts I wanted to post last blogmas, but didn’t because anxiety and depression got in the way. I plan on trying my absolute hardest to fight past this so that I can create all of the enchanting posts I dreamed up.
♡ Make the most out of this time of year- As many people know this is the time of year many people dislike because of the winter blues, myself included, however I want to try my best to enjoy winter instead of just wishing it away.
♡ Go Ice Skating – This was a winter goal I had last year as well, however I sadly didn’t get the chance to go ice skating due to personal things going on. So this year I want to actually make the plans to go!
♡ Stick to a Skin Care Routine – If any of you loves have ever felt with depression, then y’all know how sometimes it even causes you to neglect certain things. Unfortunately for me this meant taking care of my skin which caused it to become worse. Luckily I received some new skin care for my birthday and I’ve been trying to come up with the perfect routine that takes care of all my current skin issues. My hopes this winter is to stick with it and not let the depressive episodes cause me to ignore it.
♡ Keep up with my Journal – Earlier this year I bought a darling Marie journal from Hot Topic and decided I would write often throughout the year after being inspired by Anne Lister’s diaries and the show that goes with them, Gentleman Jack. Though I did not write in it as much as I wished to. I hope to start writing in it more often as a way to get out what I’m feeling so it’s not always stuck in my head.
♡ Get back into working out – At the beginning of this year I finally had the perfect workout routine for myself and was seeing results. For the first time I was confident in my body and even spent the summer wearing cute crop tops and shorts. Even though the number on the scale went up a bit, I knew it was due to finally having muscle as I looked better than I had before being underweight. However I then relapsed into my ED, went back to being underweight, and no longer have that body confidence. My goal is to find a workout routine that will be good for me as well as fight past my relapse so that I can not only feel better about my body, but also not be at an unhealthy weight.
♡ Drink more Water – Drinking enough water may seem so easy to some people, but I’ve noticed whenever my mental health worsens, I barely drink any at all. Obviously this is extremely bad as it can lead to health issues. My goal is to drink enough water for my body in order to feel better.
♡ Change up my look – I feel that it’s time for me to change up my look. I haven’t been feeling the greatest about myself lately and my style has been changing all year, so I’d love to play around and find my aesthetic. I’ve already started by dying my hair a color I’ve always wanted, blue/black, and I love how it looks so much!
♡ Start outfit planning – This goes along with changing up my look, I’d really like to start putting more effort into my outfits again. I’d also really like to play with different looks and actually wear all the things in my closet. I used to outfit plan all the time on Polyvore, but sadly that doesn’t exist anymore. With my outfit planning I would also love to do outfit layouts so I can start creating some fashion posts!
♡ Focus on healing myself – Like I’ve said throughout this whole post, my mental health just hasn’t been the best and it’s been this way for years. I really want to focus on getting better and I’ve realized there’s only so much I can do to help myself by myself. So I want to finally put myself and my mental health first and seek professional help as a way to get better and no longer have it stand in the way of achieving my dreams. I deserve it!
Leave a comment below letting me know what you loves hope to achieve this winter!
With the sky painted a pretty light grey, raindrops gently fall and kiss the ground; there’s finally a chill in the air. Autumn has finally come to greet us and it is simply lovely. My vanilla chai latte warming my hands, I’m excited for more days like this.
Hello my Witches!

Hello, Witches!
The days are getting shorter, the air is slowly becoming cooler, and everywhere you turn you see tiny pumpkins and witchy decor. This could only mean one thing; it’s finally spooky season!
With October here and the Halloween season upon us, I’ve decided to participate in blogtober. However instead of doing 31 post for 31 days of October, I’ve chosen to instead do 13 posts and call it ’13 Nights of Halloween.’ I’ll be posting them every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday until Halloween. I’m excited for all of you to see what I have planned for each post!
Also before I get into today’s post, you may have noticed LaVieEnRoseDiaries has had a very witchy makeover! I really enjoyed creating it, so I hope you find it pretty.
Being that October is one of my most favorite months, I wanted to do a fall themed version of my ‘Little Things I Adore‘ series! So below you’ll find a list of the small things that bring a smile to my face during the month of October.
What are some of the little thing you loves adore about October?
The early morning end of summer sun peaks through sheer curtains, casting pretty beams of light around the room. The delicate scent of sweet cinnamon and pumpkin drifts about, setting the mood for the start of the morning.

Hello Beachy Babes!
Welcome back to my darling blog! After a long while of not feeling creative at all, I’ve found some inspiration to write again and what better way to start posting again than with a summer morning routine? However, this routine will be different than any others I have posted in the past. Instead of being a fancy pamper routine, this one will follow my real everyday morning.
Part of me coming back to blogging is that I wanted to show more real sides. Not to say that things I posted were fake, those were very real things I’ve done however, just written in an enchanting fairytale way; I have just being wishing to show more than just the fancy side of things as well. I’ll still be doing my enchanting day in the life posts though as I adore writing them. In fact, I’ll be posting a beach one soon!
Anyway, this post was partly inspired by those ‘Wake Up With’ videos on YouTube as well as Alisha Marie’s ‘Real Morning Routine’ video.
I hope you loves enjoy it!
As the morning sun beams begin illuminating the room, I hear a melody playing; soft at first, but then loudly. Is this the angelic fairies playing their enchanting tunes in my dreams?
Nope, it’s just my alarm blaring the Grey’s Anatomy theme song, letting me know I better get up for the long day ahead.
With a sigh I reach over for my phone, trying and failing to stop the noise, and check to see the time: 6am on the dot. Not super early, but early enough to cause me to go from mellow dreamer to an overdramatic Sharpay Evans type in .05 seconds flat.
Usually a happy morning person, today just wasn’t one of those days; it’s been awhile since those days. Letting out yet another overly dramatic sigh, I reach for my phone (now quiet) and open it to my texts.
I send out a lovely little good morning text, in the form of a darling gif, to my group chat to let them know I care.
That’s what those idiots get for naming me the Chanel Oberlin of the chat
Setting my phone back down, I sit up in bed. My soft Ariel blanket now tossed aside, I glance around the room, squinting at the sun. Wanting to establish a good morning routine and get back into my workout plan, I decided I should start doing at least one workout in the mornings as a way to get me up, ready for the day, and feeling lovely. Today is the start of that and I absolutely couldn’t wait to begin.
I’m sorry I was kidding. I was lying to myself when I said I would actually do that.
With that, I finally drag myself out of bed and into the bathroom to do all of the basics that one does in a bathroom at the crack of dawn; I end this with washing and moisturizing my face. Being that my skin has been acting problematic lately, I reach for my current holy grail product: Phoenix Facial Oil. I thought it would’ve made my face feel terribly gross, but instead it adds that extra moisture that my always dry & dull skin needs. Bonus, it makes my skin look naturally dewy to where I don’t need concealer and highlight!
Before starting on my makeup, I like to light a candle and being that I’m overly excited for fall, I’m lighting my Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin candle. It’s such a cozy scent and it puts me in a good mood.
Now every morning while I do my makeup, I enjoy putting something on to watch. Unfortunately for me this just leads to me taking longer to get ready being that I’ll stop mid-eyebrow just to pay attention to the show.
Recently my go to morning show has been Beverly Hills 90210 and if you’re wondering, I am in fact the president of the ‘I Hate Brandon Walsh Fan Club’ while also being the captain of the ‘Andrea Zuckerman is the Cutest Thing About This Show’ club. Donna Martin is a close second though.
Anyway, on to the actual makeup part.
So as many people lately, I have recently gotten into Euphoria and it’s definitely inspired me and given me new makeup ideas. I mean my everyday makeup routine usually consists of an unnatural eye look anyway (neutral eye looks have never been my thing), but binge watching Euphoria just encouraged me to take it one step further and be even more extra. So shimmery pink and dramatic glitter tears with a blushy nose at 6:30am it is!
I’m not happy unless it looks like I just cried glitter
Though I gotta say, to you beauties out there always doing the neutral looks, y’all look so cute!
As for the rest of my makeup, I’ve been trying to not irritate my skin further so I only use blush on my face, a bit of contour on my nose, and just fill in my eyebrows. I only use the tiniest bit of concealer if I feel I need it. I complete everything with winged liner and my favorite wispy falsies.
Now my hair, that’s a different story. Sometimes I like to switch it up and wear my pink lace front so I have cute dyed hair without the damage, but today I’m going simple with my regular hair extensions as I’ve got sucked into too many episodes of 90210 and I’m now behind schedule. No surprise there.
I simply put my long hair, that I paid for, up into a ponytail. With my dark brown to dark blonde ombré hair cascading down my back, I’m finally ready to get dressed.
If you’re ever wondering if my hair is real, it’s not. Not ever.
Opening the closet, I think about which one of my style personalities wants to come out today: The overly girly, super pink side? The heavily AHS Coven inspired side? Or the laidback femme?
Shrugging, I reach for an outfit that can only be described as the femme version of Kim Possible and decide to run with it. Call me, beep me babes.
no seriously i’m taking wife applications so call me beep me
With that I also grab my new black moto jacket and a flannel (because obviously) despite the fact that the sun is currently outside screaming, “hey idiot, it’s still summer!”
The last thing I do in the mornings is make a delicious full breakfast of one pumpkin spice iced coffee.
i’m just kidding. don’t be like me. pls eat.
ps. this is basically me never being able to sit straight
Well I did say I was giving y’all my real morning routine. I really hope you loves enjoyed it and you liked this kind of post. Like I said above, I really want to show other parts of me as opposed to just the one sided princessy & super girly me.
