Chandelier Stickers+FOTD

Hey guys. Well the planets aligned & the universe was on my side this month & I'll tell you why. lol I had seen RoseRusso's room tour video on youtube, like last year & I noticed there were black chandeliers on the walls & they looked super neat. [screenshot] I loved them but I figured they had been painted on the walls & gave up on the idea of ever having them in my room. :c Fast forward to early this year & I see a post from Toni talking about fur stickers for laptops & I click on the website & as I'm browsing around the site.. I see the same exact chandeliers I had seen months ago on the video. They're wall stickers!!!! I had never been so excited to see a sticker in my whole life. =/ Lol quite sad, actually. Haaha but seriously I was so happy! So I ordered & they just got here yesterday & I'd like to show them off now. Haa.

I lovee them!! They're gorgeous! The set comes with 3 chandeliers total. Two small ones & one big one. I only put up the two small ones. (shown above) These came out to $26 & free shipping which wasn't bad for me since I really really really really wanted them lol. Three weeks for shipping seemed a bit long for me though. Probably seemed that way 'cause I was so anxious to get them lol. Overall, very happy with my shhhtickersszzhh.

FOTD:
L.A. Colors Wildflowers Palette & WnW Lust Palette
My favorite color for smokey eye is purple!! No circle lenses today either, yay! Ahhh Lust is so awesome.

 Revlon Matte Lipstick in Nude Attitude & Jordana Incolor Gloss in Peach Sand
Lol @ My bottom lip's "double chin". =/ Idk why I have that.. It's like two lines. it's so weird. lol 

Well, hope you guys are having a great weekend! Mine's going dandy. My man's over there talking zombies with his COD brethren & I'm laying here doing some late night blogging & playing Farmville lol. Life is good.



Also, thank ya'll for entering the giveaway♥!
I'm super excited about it lol I can't wait til Friday! a;ld;alskd

Romantic Eyes+Nail Bummer.

My aunt is so sweet & so thoughtful! She surprised me today with a belated birthday gift. The Two Faced Romantic Eye Palette! I love it! It's so pretty. The shadows are sooo soft & silky & the colors are so pretty; Perfect for Spring! <3

Excuse the huge indenture in "Soulmates".. I had no idea how soft the shadows were; I freaked out. Especially that one.. it was like touching whipped cream. If that makes any sense. =/ I used "Soulmates" on the lid & as my highlight. I placed "Ever After" on the outer corner & the crease. Then used the gorgeous topey color "I do" to blend it into the highlight. I took a little bit of the brownish black "Un-veil" right in the crease just to give it a little more dimension.

Tadaa! The lovely Fuchsia Fever by Mabelline. I've been wearing this everyday since I got it. =/ Lol I think it's such a pretty pink. I think I'm going to get an extra one incase it gets discontinued later. Haa.

Ummm yeah.. THAT just happened. Lol. -_- Yesterday, I got into a tug-of-war fight with my chair & I obviously lost. Lol The nail cracked in half & my finger was throbbing!! My finger had a heartbeat. :( Anyway.. I ended up taking them all off. But my nails are still kind of rough from where they filed the surface down a little. So excuse the groadiness of my nails..

NOTD: Savage!!
IRL, the polish has more of a green tint to it. Idk why it looks so blue on my camera. =/ & Remember how I mentioned that the polish looked like house paint. I thought it was because of the gel in my nails but turns out I guess that's how the polish is. =/ The polish doesn't have that wet look it looks matte? like colored whiteout. Lol I can't explain it, but I've never had a polish like it & I haven't decided if I like it yet or not. (:



Thnx for reading, ladies.
Or at least for taking a glance. Teehee.

Collective Haul+NOTD

 L.A.Colors Lipstick in Sorbet • Mabelline Color Sensational in Fuchsia Fever • Sinful Colors in 24/7
L.A. Colors Palette in Darling • Mabelline Falsies Volume Express • Bling Emery Boards 
Can I just say.. I love the Fuchsia Fever lipstick! I'm so glad I picked it up. It's sooo pretty. If you like pink lipsticks, you'll love this color. It's so bright & pretty.. Ugh I love it. I was going to swatch the nail polishes but I'm wearing gel nails & the polish comes out looking like house paint lol. So weird but anyway, I also got The Falsies mascara after seeing it on Leslie & how pretty her lashes look; Excited to try itttt.

 2 Pairs of Large Flower Button Earrings from Charlotte Russe • Sinful Colors in Savage
I'll admit, I pick up nail polishes because of the color & decide whether to buy them or not based on the name. SAVAGE was a no brainer. Lol Ignore the nail art thing. I got it in the mail from bornpretty.com, it's a template of the nail art stickers they offer. I thought they were going to be actual sample stickers but it turned out to be just a template. :c Minus 5 cool points from me for not reading carefully lol.

 Mabelline Color Sensational in Fuchsia Fever • L.A.Colors Lipstick in Sorbet
The L.A. Colors lipstick.. Meh. I could live with or without it. But the Fuchsia color is now my favorite lipstick I own. I'll showcase it later this week on here. Haa.
L.A. Colors Palette in Darling
Wahh! I suck at swatch pictures lol I swear, I tried. I took this pic like 36 times but the flash was too much. :( I'll deliver better swatches in the future. I love the pink in this palette. Everytime I go to the store I see a new L.A. Colors Palette that I don't have. I had seen this one a couple days ago but since the browns were really close to the browns from their neutral palette (Tea Time Palette) I didn't get it. But I saw it again today & I guess I kind of warmed up to it. Haa.


NOTD: Oasis
Sinful Colors: Oasis
Keeping warm in my man's hoody.
This is actually a NOLW. Nails of last week lol. I got a french tip on my nails recently & I hateee them now. The lady did them too short & too wide.. & they look funky to me. I wish I would've left the Oasis nails longer now.

Happy Valentine's Day!! +FOTD

Heyy girls! Hope y'all had a great day with your special someone! From what I've noticed, a lot of couples took it easy this year & kicked back at home or went out for a little dinner & chilled at home, which is perfect, in my opinion. My man pretty much watched Sparticus all day lol & I watched the last two episodes of Friday Night Lights online. Wahhh! :( I'm so sad it ended. I couldn't stop crying on the last episode. Texas Forever!! Lol I love Riggins. But anyway! My baby got me a dozen roses & a big ol teddy bear lol he might not look it, in the pic.. but trust, that thing is huge. Lol. I hope ya'll had an awesome day & if you didn't have a Valentine this year, es cool.. I'll be your Valentine ♥ lol.


My Vday bear. I named him Tequan after Drew from Everybody Hates Chris. Lol.

Cookies my mom brought me. c:


FOTD: Pretty in Pink.
L.A. Colors Wildflowers Palette • WnW Greed Palette • Show Colors Blush
(Look Ma, no circle lenses!) I used the pink blush as a lid color lol & the pink in the LA palette as the crease color & blended it up. I used the WnW color as my highlight. Then took both pink colors with an angled brush & placed them on my lower lash line.

Show Colors Cupcake Lip Color • L.A. Colors Lipgloss in Pink Pearl.

My Birthday!!+NOTD

Hey guys! Well yesterday (4th) was my birthday!! & even though the weather put a bit of a damper on my day & our plans, it was still awesome & I'm very thankful I got to spend another birthday with my peoples. ♥ I had a bunch of errands & things I had to get done yesterday morning, so I started the day off with a big headache. But after some Excedrin from my little brother, I was good to go. Haha. When I got home I had the lovliest surprise ever waiting for me on my bed. My boyfriend got me a dozen pink roses for my birthday. How sweeeet, right! (: They're freakin beautiful & he left me a note with a little message & some lyrics from one of our songs. He's so adorable. Even when he's playing Black Ops & is cussing like a sailor. Lol. I hate that I can't play with him for more than 30 mins without getting a massive headache & feeling nauseous. I think all the movement of the game gives me motion sickness or something.. which is a shame 'cause it's actually pretty fun. Even though I'm what he calls a "camper". I basically hide out in a room  & shoot people that pass by.. but APPARENTLY it's considered cheating lol

My Cupcake playing..

Small Dots Haul+Ramblings


Hey guys! So I picked up some accessories at Dots (the store). I use to work there maybe three years ago & I know they're mostly located in the south & on the east coast here in the states, so if you have one nearby & have never been there, GO. You'll love it. I promise. They have all the latest styles in clothes & accessories without the crazy prices. Although, I'll admit the prices have gone up a bit recently. =/ Alsooo, if you sign your email up with them, they send you coupons that really come in handy if you shop there a lot. There's really only a handful of clothing stores I lovee & that store has always been at the top of my list. Although.. I hated working there lol I sure as hell still love shopping there. Retail was never really my thing though. I was great with customers & got along with pretty much everyone, even the bitchiest girls lol But I hatedddd that management wanted us to force items on customers. My District Manager at Dots, I swear, hated me. lol She'd cop an attitude with me & would complain to my Managers about me. She wanted us to practically harrass the customers & follow them around like puppies, suggesting every accessory/shoe/pant under the sun. All the while, keeping track of the rest of the 20+ customers in the store & watching our designated zone for shoplifters AND doing go-backs from the dressing rooms while understaffed! That broad was crazy lol I did not get paid enough to bend over backwards for that woman & do double the work just because she didn't want to pay for a full staff. Ohh & she was so bitter. After 2 years of hell with her, I got another job at bebe & when I gave my two weeks notice & she found out I was leaving.. She had my Manager tell me to clean the toilets. Arrrgghhh! lol Cleaning the bathrooms was never our job but she couldn't have me leave without taking one last jab. Lol She was a piece of work. bebe was fun though.. I loved going to work there everyday. It was kind of like high school though lol a lot of drama with our staff. Retail pretty much sucks, end of story. Haha But anyway, here's a closer look at the accessories I picked up+ a new nail polish from Walgreens. [Click pictures to enlarge]

Gold & Peach Earrings ($7) + Stretchy Flower Ring w.Crystals ($7)

Long Crystall Studded Ball Necklace ($9) + Pink Feather Earrings w.Rhinestones ($8) + Charm Pendant Necklace ($8)
Sinful Colors in Glass Pink ($1.99) + My Love University eau de parfum by Dots ($6.50)

I thought the packaging of the perfume was so cute! The description: [Light creamy blends of rose petals, sugared berry blossoms & French Vanilla.] & You can totally smell it. Very vanilla-y & fresh scent.
