This and That

To start things off, hello. Yes I know, I am bad on this front with updating my blog. Hopefully I will be improving slightly. These are just some of my favorite products I have found at the moment and then also just a few new things I have picked up along the way.

When I was in London I was really wanting some Keds. I had bought some shoes from Primark that were similar, but of course no comparison and were no match for the London lifestyle, walking. I haven't had Keds since I was little! It was a nice flash back!

There is this shop that is dedicated to just selling socks. I've been going here since I was little and they always have the cutest socks!

This is a Lucky Brand shirt (guys) that I have been wanting to get so I could cut out the neck. I'll have to show you the finished product after I'm done altering it, ha.

As a lot of you may have read on my Twitter, I was on a mission last week to find the "Gray's Anatomy" nail polish from Wet N Wild. One of my followers, I forget her username now. She told me she finally saw them at Walgreens and sure enough I go to Wallgreens and there they are. They are $1.99 and the craziest part is this is seriously the longest lasting nail polish I have ever used! These also dry fast!

"Saved By The Blue"

"How I met Your Magenta"

 I usually don't buy many drugstore cover up sticks, but my friend had this one and let me just say it is amazing. This is probably one of the best concealer sticks I have ever tried.

Sleeting Outside and I'm Wearing This?

Elloooooo!

Some of you had asked in my last video if I would start doing outfits of the day and just what I'm wearing and such, so here it is! Not that impressive today I know, lol. I needed to get my SLR out and take pictures, but instead I just used my little camera. It's currently 30 degrees outside and sleeting. I know, some of you northern peeps are probably thinking, really girl, that's not cold at all.

You guys probably already heard me talking about me making soap. Yes, it is my new found hobby now, ha. I've been working at it, because it is taking a lot of practice to get it to the point of perfection. I am thinking about opening up a little store on Etsy so sell some of them, once I feel like I get good at it. You can let me know what you guys think though! I was hoping to get my little peppermint stars to that point before Christmas, but it looks like it might be a little too late now. They feel really good though! I didn't want to just do a normal peppermint soap I wanted it to have that cooling sensation as well, and that's just what I incorporated into it. I had fell in love with this body wash soap they sell at Boots in London, so that was what really had me inspired to try to make something similar to it.



I hope you all are enjoying your holiday!

I was in a black and white mood, ha.
