September Favorites!

Hello Ladies,

So I'm a little late with the September favorites but better late than never right?

I don't know how it is for you guys, but it is getting extremely cold a little bit too early. I really can't complain because we had a wonderful winter, spring, and definitely hot summer. Yet, I'm extremely scared that this means it will be a harsh winter.
But for now I'm enjoying the cool weather, my heated blanket, and pumpkin flavored goodies!


First on my Favorites list are the Nail polishes;
I absolutely love the colors in Butter London Trout Pout and Sephora by OPI Looks Like Rain, Dear. These two colors definitely gave me the ability to wear colors that transition perfectly with Summer and the beginning of fall. Trout Pout is a Salmon pink color while Looks like Rain, Dear is a sparkly gold, it goes on pretty easily compared to other glitter nail polishes I have tried in the past.

Next is my new Samsung Galaxy s3. Now I was never a fan of getting the Iphone so when it came to looking into a new hone I had no idea where to look. Then came talk about the galaxy s3 and after doing a lot of research on battery life and the phone itself I was hooked. I got it in white and ordered a purple soft case. I absolutely love this phone!! Couldn't be more happier.
Then for my most favorite of September was my new Return to Tiffany™
Heart tag charm and chain ....the best gift I have ever received. I've been wearing it almost every day :)

Lastly, for fall I took a trip to Bath and Body Works and picked up this cute Squirrel Scentportable and they had a buy 4 get 2 free scents. I picked up Apple Crumble, Spiced Cider, Lavender & Vanilla, Cranberry Woods, and Vanilla Coconut. Yummmy
It's definitely Fall :)

Long time, I'm back!

Hello lovelies :) 

IT'S BEEN A WHILE! I had so many plans and ideas for posts but unfortunately those were pushed to the back burner while I tried to get my life all scheduled out. So update on the life: 
1) I started my internship at the district court in the city I live in (Absolutely love!) and I have a possible future working there.
2) I'm currently taking 3 classes at the University and 1 class at the community college. 
3) Working at my new job (Have I mentioned this before? I quit V.S around July and got another job at a International Supermarket as a cashier. Not the best job but I love it and they already have me training people and the only other girls who train have been there for 5 years *pats myself on the back* )
So I'm pretty much doing all the above Monday through Sunday. It's been a little hectic but I have myself in a little routine so now I'm able to breathe once in a while! 

Now enough about me, more about the blog. I will be posting more, which I will be posting my favorites of the week or month, nail of the weeks (because I change them a lot) and actually some neat recipes and holiday fun!

 If you have any ideas also, comment below and let me know what you want to see!

 Hopefully I can get more followers soon too! I'm so happy to be back on here and I hope you are too!

Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox

Hello Ladies :) 
Still busy with work and school so I've been a little behind with the posts, I apologize! But, a couple weeks ago I received my first ever Summer Beauty VoxBox from Influenster! 

What I received:
Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF30
Tampax and Always Radiant Collection
Quaker Soft Baked Bar in Banana Nut Bread
Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color
Sally Hansen Nails and Cuticles Hand Creme


After waking up late I ended up picking out the Soft Baked Bar and ate it on my way to class and I must say not only did it really taste like Banana Nut Bread (and DELICIOUS) but it also kept me full through my class until I was able to get a full meal. I'm planning on using the cuticle creme and magnetic nail polish within my next nails of the week! 

Influenster is a program which allows people to receive, test and review products. To receive a VoxBox or items like these, you can go Here


Disclaimer: I received each product in the Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.

My First MAC Palette

Hello ladies Enjoying your summer? We have been having a lot of heat which I know has been going across the east and southeast recently. We had about 4 days in 100 + degrees which never happens in Michigan. 

 Now I know my birthday was two months ago and unfortunately I wasn't able to do a post about what I got or rather bought myself :) but I ended up purchasing my first ever MAC Pro Palette for 15 eye shadows. I wanted my first eye shadow to put in there to be special so after I was completely empty of the original eye shadow I picked up a pan size of Patina which is a gorgeous gold brown that has a little bit of pink, green, and gold. This is a frost eye shadow but has a subtle tone of shimmer. I use this in my everyday routine so it definitely has a small place in my heart.

What are your MAC favorites or what neutrals do you regularly go to?

Camera Question! Help!

Hey ladies, 

So right now I'm trying to do a little saving as I pay off this tuition for one of my online classes and I hope by the end of the summer I will have enough to purchase a few things. 

1) A new camera! I've been carrying around my camera for forever and although my Canon Elph has done it's job I've been really wanting to get one for more professional pictures and videos. Unfortunately I'm not tech savvy with camera's so I figured I would bring it here to you ladies who not only take beautiful pictures, but videos as well to let me know what you use, or what is you're favorite.  I was looking into Canon, but I'm open to suggestions.

2) I'm also hoping to buy a new laptop. If you were a follower around the time I went to Italy, you would have read about how my Dell Laptop of 4 years died 2 days before I left to study abroad. With little time and absolutely no money, I was able to get an 14" HP laptop. I absolutely love this laptop since my last one, but my heart has always wanted a MacBook Pro. 
So my question for you ladies- 13" or 15" ? 


I hope you ladies can help me with this decision. I can't wait to finally invest in both of these :) 
Also, I finally did my first water marbling and it turned out not so bad. Will be posting pictures soon!
Enjoy you're weekend!

NOTW + Kiss Nail Dress Review

Now that the weather is finally in the 80s I thought Pink would be the best pick of the week. After visiting the closest CVS to me I came across the sale section where I found Kiss Nail Dress stickers for $1.49. Originally they are $6.99, but I since I have yet to try the whole nail polish stickers fad I never wanted to spend the full price without knowing how they would be. After coming across these, I bought the Pink Leopard ones. I figured someone must have opened it or something because there was really nothing wrong with the item to make it on sale.


Kiss Nail Dress are the new nail strips that last up to 10 days, depending on what you do each day. I've had mine on for 4 days and so far it's still in tact and has not peeled once. I decided to only wear in on my ring fingers and fill the rest with Sinful Colors 24/7 which is a bright neon pink.


These nail strips are really worth the price and I plan on going out and getting more because it really does last. With two jobs, 4 days is a miracle for my nails!

I give this product a A- only because there are a lot of colors I want and that they don't have or the colors that are a little too cheesy for me.


Have any of you ladies tried these nail strips or any other's out there you love?

Disclosure:
As I mentioned above, I purchased this item on my own, with my own money. No one forced or asked me to do this review!
