It's crazy how fast time flies yet how much you can accomplish. I'm so excited to reach some new goals in 2014. It's been a great year and I'm thankful for every minute of it. I'm especially grateful for graduating college and being able to go to NYC for the first time. 2013 was just the beginning of a new chapter in my life and I can't wait to start writing the rest of it in the years to come!!

Sephora Goodies!

So after about a week of trying out all of these new goodies, I think I can now give a fair review of how everything is working out. I'm going to start with my favorite: Josie Maran Argan Matchmaker Serum Foundation : This is single handedly THE BEST foundation I have ever had. I have been using BB creams or tinted moisturizer lately because I want a little bit of coverage but not too much. This foundation is really light like a tinted moisturizer, but has the perfect amount of coverage. The liquid is white when it comes out of the bottle and then pigments to the color of your skin as soon as you apply it. Literally, the BEST.  Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumper : Lip plumper is my new favorite thing. I have thinner lips and using this gloss gives a little added volume. Beware, there is a tingling sensation that is not for everyone. I happen to like it, but some people may feel like their lips are burning. Use with caution!  BB Thickening Spray : I first started usi...

Fall Fragrance Wish List

There are so many fragrances I want right now!!! I made a list of my top five and where you can purchase them.  I love these scents more than anything right now and could smell them all day. What would be your top five? 1. Viktor & Rolf 'Flowerbomb'- Sephora, Macy's, Nordstrom 2. Givenchy 'Dahlia Noir'- Sephora, Macy's 3. Gucci 'Guilty'- Sephora, Macy's, Ulta 4. Yves Saint Laurent 'Manifesto'- Macy's, Ulta 5. Jimmy Choo 'Jimmy Choo'- Sephora, Nordstrom, Macy's, Ulta I love all of these perfumes because they smell feminine and seductive. If perfumes could smell seductive, these ones would. All of them have a long-lasting scent, too. The biggest mistake I use to make was to buy tons of perfume from Victoria's Secret, which smells great in the store, but fades within the hour. Paying a higher dollar for one of the five above is well worth it and will last you. You get what you pay for, especially wi...

Lady In Red

This season is one of my favorites because you can take any a winter outfit and subtract a few layers and have a Fall favorite!!!! I love this dress because it is one of the most comfortable things to wear. I paired it with some brown combat boots to make it more casual. You can take a pair of heels to dress up the look and turn it from day to night and add a scarf or pea coat for some added layers and warmth. Besides natural colors, red is one of my favorite for Fall/Winter. This shade of red goes perfect with brown tones so you can easily see why it's great for Fall. For my eyeshadow, I used the Lorac Tantalizer Glow To Go collection with eyeshadows in tahitian sand, barbados bronze, and costa rican coffee. I also used creep from the naked palette on my outer creases to blend in the smokey eye effect. I am wearing Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Broad in bisque for my face make up. I love this product because it gives just enough coverage to even out my skin tone and you ca...
