Just dropping by to say...

I love tax season! My refund was more than I expected.

Also, I wanted to say that I want this shirt. It is a Sinful V Neck Tee. You can get it at Buckle. Know of any coupon codes? Let me know, the shirt is $58! A bit much for a tee shirt but it is cool and edgy. I like it.

Anything else? Um yeah, I also want to say that my Flip video camera has yet to come in and I am getting pretty nervous. I'm dying here. If it doesn't come in by Tuesday I will contact Ebay Customer Service.

Nail Polish Lust. That is what I am in. For the new Alice in Wonderland line from O.P.I!

I can't find a picture that will let me drag it but my favorite color is Mad As A Hatter. It is purple and super hot!

Having trouble sleeping so I will most likely be back later to show something else I found.

Beauty MUST HAVES Part one

Beauty Must Haves Part One will focus on the things that I put directly on my skin.


These are the products that I use on a daily basis:

Serious Skin Care Glycolic Cleanser

I have been using this cleanser for years, even through puberty! It seems that no matter what stage my skin is in, this is the cleanser for it.

Clinique Moisture Surge

This is without a doubt my favorite moisturizer out there. It literally feels like your face is drinking a glass of water! I know, weird. 

Mark Xpert Flawless Touch Foundation

This foundation is proof that I am not a make up snob, as I have been called. I know that I use expensive make up sometimes but honestly, there are times that I can't afford it and I use mark EVERYTHING. But other times, I use one or two items in my daily routine. I sell Mark products and think they are great and super affordable, so why don't I use more of the products everyday? Because I fell in love with other products before discovering Mark make up. Old habits dies hard.

MOVING ON:

Bare Escentuals Hydrating Mineral Veil

This is great. It sort of smoothes out your skin and gets rid of any shine that you may have going on. It works well with every foundation I have ever tried it with.

Laura Geller Bronze n Brighten Powder

I am not big into blush and if I do use it, I get a light pink from mark, but usually I am all about the bronzer. This is a great bronzer! If you are unfamiliar with Laura Geller, it is time you two meet. I won't get started on how amazing her eye shadows are, that is for another post!

Honeymoon Attire

In my last post I had a cute Victoria's Secret dress and it inspired me to look for honeymoon attire. My wedding is coming up in a few months and we are going somewhere tropical so I will need beachy dresses and some new bathing suits. Sweet! Everything I am going to post is from VS because I fell in love with so many of their items I felt like you would be tired of looking at pictures by the end of this as it is.


Here we go.....

VS dress in brown and tan = $65

I also thought about the white and black in this style.

$58

Love. Love. Love. Love.

$45

I would have to try this on before buying. It seems like the top could make you appear larger than you are.

$95

Okay, I know, I am a sell out. These dresses are so popular and I have never had one but now, I feel it is a necessity.

Swim Wear:

$49

I have nothing in my closet that is animal print. I feel that this is a good place to start.

$49

I am a little skeptical of this one for one reason. See the little pink band that goes between the cups? Yeah, since that is what goes under the cups that is all of the support you get. I much prefer the style of top in the first pic but I liked this one too. Probably not enough to buy. I need a little more support than this.

All in all, I am sure you get the general idea of how I want to dress. I didn't find any shorts that I wanted but of course, I will get a pair or two of those. I am not a big short wearer though. I mainly wear dresses or capris. Blame it on my parents, who convinced me that shorts were the devil when I was younger..

I love this blog thing. 

Saving is not a fun activity

I like to shop. I like to spend money on random things and then later I wonder why I needed them in the first place. I can not return anything. It feels like a waste. No, I don't need the creme brulee torch that I bought from Bed Bath and Beyond for thirty dollars right now but you know, maybe one day I will. Yeah, I am sure I will.


Purchases that you should know about:
1. Flip Video Camera. I was sitting at home alone and I kept thinking how fun it would be to have a camera to make vlogs with. Totally fun, right? I know, it is not in the b*dget right now, I know.... But it couldn't hurt to check on Ebay and see what kind of deals they have, right? Wrong. Ebay is also a four letter word and for good reason. Normal people think that People magazine and chewing gum at the grocery check out line are impulse buys... My impulse buys are video cameras off of ebay.. There is a bit of a price difference I would say. 


Purchases that I want to make right this instant:
1) Victoria's Secret Summer Dress- $58

Victoria's Secret and their Summer dresses. Gets me every time! I did not let myself browse long enough to get to the bikinis because that is suicide in my world.


2) A Cricut Expression. $350.00

Oh please, Oh please, oh please!

3) Mignon  Faget Tulip Ring- $100.00

I won't complain about not having this ring for a long time because I recently received the most beautiful engagement ring ever!

Purchases of Necessity:

These are just no fun.

1) General Groceries- $who knows

2) Turbo Tax Deluxe Edition- $25 with capital one discount. Score!

My purchases need to be strictly wedding related for a long time but come on, that summer dress it to die for!
