My weekly loves: Lip balm, makeup wipes & more!

Hi everyone! So it's almost the end of the week, so I figured I'd write my "Weekly Loves" post today since I will be pretty busy tomorrow. This week I have been loving certain beauty products, so I'll tell you all about them!
I love eos lip balms. They work so well and they all smell amazing, not to mention 95% organic!They come in so many flavors: Mint, Lemon Drop, Strawberry Sorbet, Honeysuckle Honeydew & more! This week I have been using my (favorite) Summer fruit one alot. I love how it doesn't clump up or get on the outside of your lips. You just simply twist off the cap and roll on. So cool!
(EOS Organic Lip Balm Sphere- Summer fruit, $2.99,Target stores and www.target.com)
Before this summer, I would only use the Neutrogena makeup removing wipes. But then I tried the Yes to Cucumber facial wipes and I love them! Unlike the Neutrogena wipes, these don't leave a shiny residue on your face and they smell amazing! They are good for sensitive skin and these towlettes clean your skin and remove your makeup! I will never go back to the Neutrogena wipes after trying these.
(Yes to Cucumber face towlettes, $2.99, Target stores and www.target.com)
Yesturday, for Halloween, I was incharge of curling my friends' hair. I brought this curling iron and it worked amazing. This is my favorite curling iron I've ever had. It makes beautiful curls and they stay in for hours without any hair spray. It heats up super fast and comes with heat protectant gloves to keep you from burning yourself. I love it!
(Remington textured curling iron, $19.99, Target and www.target.com)
Yes, I know this is not a beauty product, but I had to include it in this weeks' post. Just this week I have started watching the first season of Pretty Little Liars. (Yes, I am a tad late.) And I love it! It is so intriguing and mysterious and you cannot stop watching it. It is a little spookier than what I normally watch, but I still think it is amazing and I can't wait to watch more episodes.
(Pretty Little Liars Complete first season, $31.03, www.amazon.com)
I hope you all had an amzing Halloween and I hope you enjoy the rest of your week. As promised here is the link to Missglamoazzi's GIY Peter Pan Collar tutorial video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeCrjALFOgI&list=UU5zSySQab9SA6Wz569WDgqw&index=1&feature=plcp
Enjoy!

TREND ALERT: Peter Pan Collars

Hi everyone! So lately I've been noticing that a lot of people are sporting peter pan collared shirts. A few days ago Missglamorazzi, one of my favorite Youtube Beauty gurus, posted this photo on instagram:
 
I was really excited because she said she was making peter pan collared neclaces which I think are SO cute! The best part? She said she'll be making a GIY (Glam It Yourself) video tutorial on how to make them! I will post the link to the video on my blog when she uploads it. So then she posted a picture of her finished product:
 
 
Isn't that so cute? I think they are adorable! They are such a vintage trend that looks adorable on t-shirts, dresses and sweaters! They are becoming a huge fall trend. Celebs seen rocking this look? Naya Rivera, Natalie Portman, Emma Watson, Ashley Tisdale & Taylor Swift! You can find this look at places such as Forever 21(www.forever21.com)  and Urban Outfitters (www.urbanoutfitters.com) . I hope you enjoy sporting this fall trend!

My weekly loves: toasty drinks, nail art & more!

Hi everyone! I hope all of you have had an amazing week! I have been so busy this week that I finally had the time to do some blogging. :) I actually tried to write this post earlier in the week, but my computer wasn't acting too well, so it wouldn't post. But here I am now, ready to share my weekly loves! So lets get started!
This week I have been drinking lots of hot chocolate! It's just starting to get colder where I live, so this has been my go-to drink. My absolute favorite is the Swissmiss Marshmallow Lovers. It is almost 100% caffeine free (which is good for a nighttime snack) and it has around 30 marshmallows in every serving! It is delicious and is perfect for those Marshmallow lovers out there.
($1.77, www.walmart.com and other grocery stores.)
 
 
Look at how cute these nails are! I found this idea from MissJenFabulous on Youtube. Her channel is great because she does LOTS of nail art tutorials, which I love! This was from her "Five Cute & Easy Halloween nail tutorials!" video. This was my favorite look of the 5 because these are just the most adorable little frankenstein nails and are perfect for Halloween time. I think I will be trying this very soon.
 
 
Of course I love Taylor Swift EVERY week, but this week in particular I have been very proud of her. If you are a Swiftie, you know her album RED came out this Tuesday. My faves on the album so far? "I knew you were trouble", "22", and "Begin Again." Her song "Red" is now #1 on iTunes in 40 countries! I am so proud of this girl and how far she has come.
(RED album, $14.99, Target. www.target.com)
 
I hope you all enjoyed this post because I had alot of fun writing it! Check back in next week for my next "Weekly loves" post! I hope you all have a great weekend! Bye!

Oversized sweaters trend!

This fall I've been noticing a new trend that has been recurring. Oversized sweaters. When you say that word most people might think of a large, chunky granny sweater. Not anymore! These oversized knits have been rockin' this fall. Especially long, thick ones that look great with black leggings, skinny jeans, fur boots and ballet flats. You can make this outfit sparkle by adding a dainty necklace or a cuff bracelet. Stars seen flaunting this trend are the Kardashian gals, Natalie Portman, and Vanessa Hudgens to name a few. You can find this current trend at Forever 21,Wildfox Couture, and Urban Outfitters. Shop them here at: www.forever21.com www.wildfoxcouture.com www.urbanoutfitters.com

My weekly loves!


 


Hi everyone! This week I have been LOVING fall items! Boots, scarves, candles... I've decided every week (I can) I will post a "weekly loves" post! It will just be an overview of the items I've been loving. So lets get started.
 
These bow flats are from Sole society. They are super adorable and come in many colors (bonus!) My favorite color is the mustard yellow color. I think they'd be great for fall and would make any outfit very cute and add a touch of color. ($49.95 www.solesociety.com)
 
This is a Yankee Candle in the Candy Corn scent. It smells DELICIOUS. I've been burning it in my bedroom and it smells exactly like real candy corn! It has a very strong scent, so if you love strong scents (like I do!)... Go get it! ($24.99 www.yankeecandle.com or in stores)
 
This is an Essie nailpolish in the color "Smooth Sailing." It is a shimmery, lavender blue color that I think is great for fall. This is the only Essie nail polish I own, but I love it so I think I'll be buying more in the future. ($8.00 www.essie.com or in select stores)
These are the Geirard Madden Girl lace up boots. They are super comfy, brown, leather boots. I have been loving wearing them because they make any outfit more edgy and they are the perfect fall leather boot. ($69.95 www.stevemadden.com and in select department stores)

I hope you enjoyed my post everyone and I hope you have a wonderful autumn week! <3

The site that has it all...

I am here to tell you about the most wonderful site for all my creative friends out there.. (you know who you are!) It is is called Pinterest. It is a place for people to "pin" and view artwork, craft ideas, fashion, beauty, recipes, photography, books, travel, gardening tips, and any little handy tricks that you can use to help you with any sort of project. One of my favorite things are all the nail art pictures. It shows tutorials for painting nails as bumblebees, cartoon characters, cupcakes, converse sneakers, and so much more! Below shows some of what you can find on pinterest.com. I am obsessed with it! I suggest you try it soon (or RIGHT NOW) but you have to request an invite first. (They'll normally let you join in a day or two.) So go to http://www.pinterest.com/ and start browsing, viewing, and pinning creative go-to's for you and your friends! Happy pinning!
