I promised on Wednesday that this post would be up but it's just been one of those weeks. My mom is away on a cruise, the snowstorm is still getting to me, and work has been very busy (in a good way). I've been exhausted and last night I was SO SICK. It was horrific. Okay, enough of my complaining.. let us get…

This post was not planned at all, I moved some things around but stay tuned for an exciting post (and possible giveaway for tomorrow!) Over the long snowy weekend, I obviously did some window shopping on the Internet and stumbled across the retailer ILY. I have never heard of this online boutique before (let me know i…

I have been on a huge foundation kick lately. I'm just more attracted to foundations that I have been in a while and I want to try them all. Liquid, cream, powder, cushion -- give me them all, please! It could also be owed to the fact that a lot of beauty brands have been releasing new foundations left and right. …

This was originally going to be a post on my favorite apps but honestly, I don't use many unique apps. I have the typical ones every has: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Weather, a period tracker, some shopping apps, my Jawboneup app, and that's pretty much it. I blame my storage situation -- seriousl…

I'm 95% sure I'm getting the flu. My mom AND sister had it this week and I can feel the effects creeping up on me. I haven't been tired but I've had super low energy and I've felt really weak. That is definitely why I didn't have a blog post up yesterday. I even had half of it written and it wa…

When was the last time I did a Wishlist Wednesday? I can't even remember! I have not stopped shopping and it's really bad. I will say I have gotten better--a lot better than I was but still, maybe February will be the month that I knock my habit! Anyways, even though I shop a lot, there are still some things t…

Another new series I'm going to try out... Brand Buzz. It'll be different than Beauty to Know because it won't just be beauty, and it won't be just "underrated brands". For example, today I'm talking about one of the most beloved beauty brands in the industry, Maybelline. Maybelline is a …

Another week begins, another Manicure Monday to start it off. I'm off from work today and it's a glorious feeling. I love work but I love being home as well. It's nice to have some downtime -- I say that as we just came off Christmas "vacation" a few weeks ago but it's been a whirlwind few we…

Did anyone else feel like this week went at a glacial pace? It started out super busy at work for me, and then slowed down. I thought Wednesday was Friday-- it definitely screwed me up! It was also the first full week of work for me since before Christmas so yeah, it definitely took some getting used too. The good new…

I've been flying through books on Audible lately, as well as reading them. I think I'm reading a total of three books right now. I've definitely gotten into a funk with what books I should listen to, that is until I saw that the entire Harry Potter series was available on Audible. I only read the books onc…

I never thought I'd be traveling so often, especially for work, but here I am! Last week I took my 4th work trip in 6 months and I feel like an old pro. From a very young age, I always overpacked whenever I was going somewhere. I have so much stuff and I want it all with me at any given time. I have not gotten bet…

I have gotten so many new nail polishes in the past few weeks and I just feel the need to use and share all of them. The After Christmas sales really got to me a few weeks ago and while I was browsing the Interweb, I saw that Julep , a brand I have tried but not fully, was having a really ridiculous sale. From my memo…

This is a sponsored post but all opinions are my own Target is always my source of weakness. I mean isn't it everyone's? I avoid going to Target as much as possible because I get too sucked in. Between food, music, books, and of course beauty, Target is my place of happiness. My Target is a 5 minute drive from…

And another week bites the dust! It was the first full week of 2016 and it kicked my booty! I was in Pennsylvania Sunday-Tuesday for a work trip and it really wore me out. I've talked about it here before--once every few months my coworkers & I head down to QVC Studios and we basically stay up for 24 hours whi…

I rarely stray from my traditional brands of polish, mostly Essie. If I do, it's with other well known brands like Smith & Cult or Ciate. Another fun fact is that I will always support, be curious, and buy products made by my favorite Youtube vloggers. There has been Colourpop shadows from Kathleen Lights, Ch…

I haven't gotten a VoxBox from Influenster in the longest time and I've been patiently waiting my turn. Finally the moment has arrived and I think this was a pretty great VoxBox to receive. First, let me ask--are you utterly confused as to what a VoxBox is and what Influenster is? Well, Influenster is a platfo…
