Dare I?

Check these babies out! I came across these fabulous shoes the other day while perusing the internet and instantly fell in love! I am a sucker for studs and anything stylish with some edge. Heelless platforms tend to freak people out but it's all an illusion and they do in fact give plenty of support. I'm debating whether or not I dare purchases these puppies, what do you think?

Let me be straight with you

Taming this curly haired beast can be a challenge. Whether I have short hair or long, to straighten my hair it seems to take foreva! Curly hair is great but sometimes I feel like I want some straight haired swag every now and then, what helps ease the hair straightening process is the Chi. I have used many hair straighteners in my day and the Chi has to be my fav! What I love about the Chi is it heats up quickly and instantly gives you silky smooth hair, it only has one heat setting so you don't have to worry about cranking it to low, medium, high or whatever.

Walk through the Red Door, and see what it has to offer!

Elizabeth Arden's fragrance Red Door is an oldie but a goodie! I first tried this wonderful perfume last August when my fiance surprised me with it for my birthday! Such a lucky girl I am! This classic scent exudes glamour, elegance, and sophistication. I squirt 1-2 sprays on in the morning and it lasts all day! This signature scent is a mix of floral, sandalwood, and honey. It also comes in an adorable red door bottle. Get some and enjoy!

Boom, Boom, POP!

I love my girls nights! Whether it be getting dolled up and going out on the town or keeping it casual and low key by spending some time at the local karaoke bar. Last night was definitely one of those low key nights. Just because I'm going to be keeping it casual for the night doesn't mean my look has to be boring. Here I am wearing all black with a white t-shirt however, I added a POP of color with my neon pink shoes.

It's a Crime Not to Prime

Prior to my daily make up application there are 2 steps I religiously follow; prime the eyelids & prime the face. Just like you prime a wall before painting it, you must prime your face before "painting" it. Primer helps create a barrier between you skin and make up, it moisturizes & refreshes your skin, and helps your make up  to stay put all through out the day, which for me can sometimes last up to 16 hours!

First I apply my face primer, I use Benefit's Porefessional. This product not only comes in an adorable package, it reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines. The translucent formula compliments all skin tones and takes away any dreaded oil and shine that make up foundation can cause.



Second I prime my eyelids, me being the die hard Urban Decay fan that I am, use Urban Decay's Eyeshadow Primer Potion. This primer comes in 4 different shades that can serve the dual purpose of being an eyeshadow or highlighter. This primer prevents your eye make up from smudging or creasing and lasts up to 24 hours! FABULOUS!!

Big Haired Diva

When it comes to hair, I'm all about being bold and making a statement. I have rocked short hair and long hair. Currently I am rocking a longer style, one thing is for sure though, whatever style I sport it's going to be red and it's going to be BIG!
