I can’t help picturing how cool a large mural/wallpaper would look on the bare wall in your closet room. You could go with any pattern or color you want, literally. So much to choose from.
I gotta be honest and say I am so glad about your closet update ✨ I know you wanted an open closet from the start but I always wondered why the half size 😅 it’s going to look so elegant with the arches now! And the library handles - can’t handle how gorgeous they are!
You were correct 😭😂 thanks so much gal!! Can’t wait for it to be DONE !!
@@allanaramaa me too! ✨🤞 we see it in the new vlog
I appreciate the sun and the warmth every day. Never gets old!
Can’t wait to see the finished closet!
omg cannot wait to see the finished closet!!!!
I feel like this vlog is an analogy for getting older--my mind is just all over the place all the time! Super excited that you're excited about making your house feel more like home. Also, looking forward to your spring make-up vid. xo PS Pets for Meryl!
I lived in countries with no seasons for about fifteen years which was lovely , but I didn’t realize how much I loved and missed the changing of season , especially coming into spring and coming into fall
oh my god the closet is going to look SO GOOD, cannot wait to see it done! As someone who's also been renovating my house a lot, it can be so tough to look on something you've done / decided on and then go "no that was a mistake" and then actually decide to do something about it instead of sucking it up and living with it... when it's something you use every day it makes such a difference to have it be functional, even if you have to live with the costs of fixing it! I have a walk-in closet where I had to swap out the lights and it was such a hassle and I felt so bad but... now it's perfect and I love it!
Hello, Allana!! Your closet doors are going to be Soooo pretty! I'm SO happy for you!! The Side Tables are beautiful! I know, you and Dejan, are very happy, that things are progressing nicely, with your beautiful home. It's always wonderful seeing, and hearing, Meryl in the videos!! 😄 Take care! ❤
I loooove the interior updates, so exciting 🤭
Ah, so happy you reminded me to pull out my NYX concealer and use it more as a foundation! Forgot how pretty and light... loving it!
I love home updates! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous side table! And your library room drawer pull matches perfectly with the Athena table! Meanwhile, Meryl is trying to say bye in the background
Thank you so much 💕 she’s like hello mother where’s my debut 😂
The closet detailing is beautiful! Can’t wait to see the finished result. Hopefully it will be the closet of dreams for you ❤
Thank you ❤❤❤
Girl your biceps be poppin’! Makes me miss when I had defined arms…I gotta get back on it. 💪🏻
It’s going to look fantastic. Can’t wait. ❤
Hey Lan! So excited for you with the house updates. I've never been so stoked to see a closet door reveal. In terms of Retin-A; if you find the flaking and sensitivity too much, you could always try Bio-Retinol or Bakuchiol instead. They're plant-based "retinol's" that have very similar effects to retinol, but without all the sensitivity. The brand Three Ships makes a real nice serum and night cream of this nature, plus they're Canadian and female-owned 💁♀Also, the Canadian brand Graydon has their Fullmoon serum, containing Bakuchiol. Just some options for you! 🦋
That was so nice of Meryl to say bye at the end of the video. The side tables are stunning. After I became permanently disabled I had such a difficult time with getting ready & leaving the house. I was so much slower in every way that I was considerably late every time I had to shower. It took me more years than I would like to admit to get used to the timing & how long it would take me to get ready. If I can get better at that, everyone can.
So much love to you gal I can’t imagine what a whirlwind of an adjustment that would be! ❤❤❤❤
Your style is so classic, i love it
OMG those side tables are beautiful!! Love the mid century modern vibes
Love the vintage side tables! You guys are the best!
love u llana 😘 your style of content is so comforting ☺️
So excited for the closet reveal! The half hangers sound super annoying! The new closet doors look fabulous just like your wardrobe :)
Thank you bb! 🥹🫶🏻
I love interior design content! always a treat :)
Omg, how sweet to hear you mention my country 🇨🇿 great video as always!
Loved this vlog! Especially the home edits. Sending greetings from Prague 😊
I can’t wait to see the new closet done, your excitement is so adorable.

Sun gets me going so I know what you mean waking up to sun. I love and appreciate the sun here in SO CAL. Especially after all the rain we’ve had I’ll take a sunny spring day🌼🌸🌺
I want an update on your sun deck/ backyard project!!
The second wave of design is being done now so hopefully some moment will be happening ASAP 🎉
I think that the new doors are going to make things look beautiful but they will also make the room seem much smaller, I think, I may be mistaken though. I love the light in the room--all of your colors are so pretty there. Spring is here and Easter is right around the corner!😊
Love a good long Allana vlog❤🎉
I love sweater weather from November to January....after January 1st I'm over it and want to move to a place with sun all the time.
Truth - the enjoyment of winter is a fleeting feeling 😂
Skin Cycling has really helped me with getting used to retinal. I have veryyyy dry skin and sensitive skin so I understand the struggle!
My Husband loved the Robert Jordan book and series. You should read it 🎉. Loving the house, Lan. We all make design mistakes. Don’t feel bad. Your home is looking amazing! Enjoy! 😘💋
My eyelids got soooo sore and raw when I started retinol, my doctor told me it migrates under the skin after putting it on, the only way I found to avoid it is putting on way less than I think I need, I get all the benefits without the sore peely skin!!
In my humble opinion-ay, we live in NC where we have seasons, but mild ones. We have a full winter, a warm summer but majority of the year feels like spring/fall and we live by the beach, and we can be to the mountains in hours. I think somewhere like that would make you immensly happy . As a fellow sweater weather, warm sunshine lover ❤️
Love your house updates
How hard would it be to switch the rooms to the one you wanted ? I love your closet and your updates you give us .. I am so excited and can’t wait for your spring clothing haul ! You got me hooked on HM and I need to make a day to go in and try on pants as I am looking for the perfect dressy pair ❤❤ I wanna go snoop your poshmark site to see if you have any updated clothing you are rehoming ❤
Hi Allana! 💖About the peeling in places where you don't apply your retinoid; I've just recently learned that retinoids are cell communicative which means they affect the areas "around" where you actually apply it, if that makes sense. So even though you're not putting the product specifically around your eyes, it still has some effect there. AND since the product you're using is a pretty strong one, I guess that's also why you get flaky there in spite of avoiding the areas... Hope that was helpful at all! 🥰
I’ve had so many people say the same things about their closets from California closets! My fiancé and I decided to go with Canadian Closet Shop (located in Burnaby) but travelled to Langley for us to do a free quote with measurements etc. They were SO good, so efficient and listened to our wants/needs. But also with telling us when a design won’t work well with our space. HIGHLY recommend them! They are so so inexpensive as well which was a total bonus… like, thousands cheaper then the quotes from California Closets.
DEJAN THE TRANSITION MASTER
So love you, down to earth and real ❤️🌺❤️🌺 never change
Omg when I read biggest regret I was like I think it’s her closet because it looks so small and the clothes like you said is bulging out😭😭 I’m happy for you it’s gonna look so much better
You knew it was coming 😂😅
That transition at the end 😮🎉
Sometimes I wish I could post both lol show you guys what my ending was and then what Dejan creates 😂 it’s always a wild difference haha
I grew up near the beach with warm weather most of the year. When I moved to Europe and experienced 4 seasons for the first time, I was like: Ohhhhh, this is why everyone gets really hyped for Spring 😅
Love the house and your overall style.
Thank you so much ❤❤
I feel like the color wheel tests sometimes restrict us, BUT I'd love to see you do a color test and a makeup look inspired by it AND maybe one with the "wrong" colors, EVERYDAYMAY idea right there😘
Love that old makeup console table you have, I definitely remember that piece from long ago. Perhaps it might fit near a front door entry? Haha. Cheers!
in Malta, it gets to around 8°C in January but when March starts seeing 17° and May in the 20° it is still so sweet ☀️☀️
I cannot do winter!
pleeeease could you make a video showing all your perfumes, (both Dan's and yours), I would love that!!!
Ummm that transition at the end coming out of the laptop MAGIC
I love using dermalogica daily microfoliant in the morning after using retin-a. Helps to get rid of all the little flakes. Then I use a nice hydrating serum (love hado labo lotions for this) and a thick layer of skin fix triple lipid cream!
Oh that sounds like a fab lineup 😍 noted on the mini morning exfoliating!
Wheel of Time for the win!! The first book ca n be hard to get into but it's easily the best fantasy series I've read. But it is a big time commitment!
Ok noted !! my bff’s fiancé insisted that it’s the best series in the world so I shall attempt 😅
I’m behind on my RUclips watching but I was excited to see Eye of the World out on the table! I agree that the first book is definitely not the best, and as it’s a long series it does have some low points, but overall it is one of my favourite fantasy series ❤
Oh no Lan!! I thought that when you showed us the wardrobe 😂😂 but I reckoned if you liked it...
I too experienced dryness in the eyes area even when I don’t put my tretinoin cream near there.
I have naturally acne prone oily skin, but since being on trenoin, my skin has been extremely dry.
I am not doctor but in my personal experience what has helped with my overall dryness due to trenoin use has been doing the sandwich method: Moisturize before and after applying trenoin.
I lather moisturizer in the eyes area before applying trenoin on my chics, forehead and chin, and all lather moisturizer over after, and I (again personally) have gotten the same results-remaining acne free.
Also, born and raise in Caribbean, but would not change my current leaving state where I have all four season.
I find it beautiful and a privilege to be able to experience the changes of the seasons 😊
I love all your vlogs and super excited for all the home updates. Your style is wonderful. Also, super pleased that someone else out there is enjoying Hogwarts Legacy the way I am :D :D :D. Thank you for always sharing with us and for your humor. xoxo
Fingers crossed for a full house tour during Everyday May!
hahah, OMG, the fact that your clothes hung out halfway drove me crazy too. I was like ' why do they hang out halfway'. It's nice to know it wasn't just me being pedantic xx
No but seriously WHY 😭😂 when it was first installed I had a meltdown ahhaha
I live in a city in Brasil where is EXTREMLY warm all year round, we have maybe one or two months a year when we can use coats and Im gonna tell you... i miss the cold and having proper seasons
Putting a little Vaseline or Aquaphor Healing ointment (what I use) around your mouth/eyes before applying Retin A will help protect it.
That helicopter tour looks amazing! What a gorgeous area around Vancouver! Who makes the cute striped black turtleneck you’re wearing toward the end?
that transition at 24:31 was SMOOTH!
That’s a really interesting brand event. Tfs:)
You are so stunningly beautiful! I'm so glad you went a little darker with your hair! I think this is the perfect amount if blonde for you!
I mean you will be/are gorgeous no matter what but I just really love this color on you and I thought I would tell you this. LOL is that weird? Maybe a little. Haha
With the running late thing, CAN RELATE in a big way. The way I was able to (mostly) kick it is... when thinking about when I need to leave to get somewhere on time, I figure out when I think I should leave, and then add 10 minutes (earlier). In the same vein, when someone invites me out for a last-minute thing, I add 10-15 minutes to how long I think I need to get ready and get there. It's made a big difference.
Oo, thanks for the reminder that I needed to change the time on my vintage 14 kt yellow gold bracelet watch I inherited from my mother. Pro tip, use tweezers to gently pull out the stem because gel nails won't work😭😭
About the seasons, I lived in San Diego for a few years and really missed having seasons. I just got bored with the weather always being the same and started not to appreciate it anymore. Now I live in the Pacific Northwest and just love being excited every few months for the change. Also…I mean sweater weather
Also now I can take tropical vacations and it really feels special 😅
Occlusive Moisturizer around eyes and mouth before putting on tretinoin will help with the peeling
The only reason I am grateful for in time difference Lady Lan posting just in time to get my steps
History and significance to brands or places or items is always of interest to me too, I’m also an Apple watch girl but I have a Tudor watch that was given to me by my parents. It was kind of a cool story, my dad stumbled on a bracelet on the ground that turned out to be solid gold. He gave it to my mom, but it kept falling off, so they sold it and used the money to purchase this Tudor watch (like the second class brand of Rolex). My dad had a Rolex he bought himself for graduating from professional school, and my mom had this Tudor, but they ‘upgraded’ her watch to a true Rolex and gave the Tudor to my grandmother, who wore it until she was in her 90s and wasn’t moving enough to self-wind it.
It turned out to be serendipitous because they had 2 womens watches, and 1 mens watch. And I’m one of three siblings, 2 girls and 1 boy. So I was given the Tudor, I was very close to my grandmother and so it having been worn by both my mom and my grandmother makes it extra special. My siblings will each receive one of the Rolex watches one day when my parents are ready to let them go.
I love my Apple watch but having my little Tudor watch with all its history on hand for dressing up or when I want to be more formal is so nice, and it’s made all the richer for having that history. A good watch is forever, and so many have incredible stories behind them.
Sorry to leave such a long comment but the TL;DR is: buy a nice watch, create some history, so your kids can have cool watches. It’s truly my most prized possession.
i have a feeling you'd miss the changing of the seasons if you do decide to move to a warm, year-round sunny place
Imagine having no turtlenecks???? 😅
As an Arizonan I do not miss seasons 😂😂😂 they are fun to visit though
I vacationed in Oman in 2019 for only two weeks and boy was I happy to have clouds in the sky again after I returned home. AND RAIN!! 🥲🥹
Come live in South Africa 😂 we have lots and lots of sunshine ☀️

Use painter's tape when you are drilling your holes for the pulls! It will keep the wood from cracking.
Hey Allana! Im in desperate need of new makeup brushes (lol like they be breaking) and i wanna know what your fav foundation and concealer brushes are plssss 🫶🏼
Love you dearly too. Please though ma’am!! I rely heavily on your book recommendations. I need more. Tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow update. TY ILY bYYYYYeeeeeee ❤
Hi the side tables are gorgeous love ❤
Quick Retin-A Tips: Dermatologists don't recommend spot treating with Retin-A. But if the area around your mouth and eyes is sensitive you can avoid them OR put down a buffer first. You can put a thick moisturizer down, wait for it to dry, and then apply your Retin-A everywhere. Always apply Retin-A on a dry surface for less irritation. You can use Retin-A around your eyes if you tolerate it.
Thissss helped me so much. I was told-
Phase 1: moisturiser buffer, retinol, moisturiser
Phase 2: moisturiser buffer then retinol
Phase 3: retinol then moisturiser
@@aamie2389 Yes!!!! Exactly!
I moved to Southwest Florida 20 years ago (from Ohio). If it makes you feel any better, most of us full time residents loathe Summer. Particularly, August & September. It’s hotter than the fire of a thousand suns & the humidity is vile. Some of the afternoon storms can be v scary. My county (Lee/Ft. Myers, FL) was the most devastated this past summer by Hurricane Ian. The thought of cool/“cold” winter weather is what we look forward to all summer but we literally only got a handful of cold days/nights this winter. It is definitely beautiful here.🌴☀️I will say the regular warmth & sunshine help my physical health (autoimmune disease) & my mental health. I don’t think my body could tolerate genuine Northern winters again. 😂 Every place has their seasonal downsides. 🤷🏼♀️
Yeah, you are more than likely a soft autumn on the color wheel. My coloring is very similar to yours and that’s my color ID.
Retin-A does increase the cell turnover in untreated areas like your nose and eyes sometimes! Your skin looks so good but just be careful :)
I wish I could wear a "classy lady" nude like that dreamy Hermes! BUT ... I can't wear mascara or much eye at all, so I need to pop. But wow, that shade is amazing!
I had the same experience with tretinoin, and while I didn´t put it directly around my eyes or mouth, it still migrated. The good thing is after a while the peeling goes away!! :). In my case putting vaseline around the corners of my mouth also helped.
Hi lan! Where is your black and white stripe turtle neck from in the part where you’re chatting about your wardrobe? X
Can you say where to find a floor length mirror like the one in this video. I LOVE the rounded corners!
Now that you have solved the open closet situation, build the one you wanted from Ikea in the smaller bedroom with the morning light. ❤
would definitely get doors! lovely
I’m curious which Benjamin Moore paint you used throughout the house? Great vlog!
Hi! I think the under eye dryness is coming from the Givenchy powder, I bought it and with progressive use my under eyes started to get extremely dry and irritated, red patches of dry skin appeared and it’s still healing maybe 2+ weeks since I stopped using it! It’s a great powder but my under eyes hated it and maybe it’s the same for you too?
brushes forevah!
Can you please review the Lisa Eldridge eyeshadow palettes soon if you ever ended up picking the up!
I did buy them!! Noted ❤
Don't live in a warmer place! No! I moved from a place very close to Vancouver to the southern US and it SUCKS. I hate seeing the sun now because I know it'll make me feel sweaty and sick, so I spend all my time indoors. And trying to be fashionable in sweaty hot weather is brutal. I haven't looked cute in years LOL. I can't wait until I have the money to move back to a beautiful city with 4 seasons. Cherish it friends!
Hello🎉 I noticed in the video that you have many fragrances , me one I will love you to do a video and show all your favs and talk about them a bit . I am in the search for new fragrances😅
I had no idea that your stepdad´s family is Czech - love your videos and hi from Prague! :))
So special view❤❤ best wishes for Ur furniture😂😂❤❤❤
Omg you are not starting the Wheel of Time series 😂 I could not get into those books the first few were so repetitive haha
The hangers sticking halfway out also triggered my OCD lol so I get it girl
Sos I’m sorry 😅
Would you mind sharing who is doing your closet doors ❤
Hubs and I did a consultation with the closet company too. Disappointed to find out that it in fact is not customizable. That they sell units. Or rather just a very expensive ikea closet!
I adore my California Closet but I had lived in my house for several years.
Putting Vaseline around my eyes and mouth before I use a retinoid has made those areas stop peeling!
Currently building a house and I’m taking your advice and not going the California closets route lol.
