Swanky Sunday - A Sephora Shopping Spree

Come on, who wouldn't want a Sephora shopping spree? I'm pretty sure if someone came to me and said "You have an unlimited budget at Sephora, have at it, you deserve it." I think I might die. Or maybe just lay on the floor and cry tears of pure joy for at least an hour. Who knows. But, if by some miracle of God, that ever happens, I promise to let you know how I react. Or have Briam film it to sweeten the deal. But for now, filled with only hopes and dreams, I've created a fantasy shopping spree! Basically everything I would get with my shopping miracle. 

makeup, beauty, foundation, concealer, blush, bronzer, highlighter, eyeshadow, mascara, eyeliner, lipliner, lip gloss, lipstick, false lashes, sephora, shopping

 
What would you by at Sephora if you had an unlimited budget?

One of everything please!

A girl can dream.

Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale Haul

I'm a huge fan of semi-annual sales. I tend to go a little crazy during June and December, the most common sale months. I still have wallflower plug-ins left over from the last B&BW semi-annual sale that I shopped. I wasn't going to get any thing this time around. I really wasn't/ But one night I was lying in bed, on my iPad, just creating a hypothetical order, seeing what I could get for my money. And then once I realized I could get everything below, including tax and shipping, for only $50, I hopped out of bed and grabbed my credit card. I had to do it. I just had to.

I love the deep cleansing hand soaps. They are the only hand soaps I've tried that make me feel like my hands are really clean. Apparently, according to my doctor, I'm highly prone to infections so this hand soap has become my best friend. I was kind of nervous about the scents of the soap, online ordering problem, but I knew for sure that I was going to like Aqua Blossom and Dancing Waters. 

Pacific Cool Breeze: Jade Flower & Sea Spray
Aqua Blossom: Ocean Drenched Flowers

Dancing Waters: Cool Water & Flower Fields

I'm obsessed with the smell of honeysuckle. I have body wash, lotion, body spray, perfume, wallflowers, candles, and so much more that smell like honeysuckle. And so of course when I saw that the body spray was on sale I had to buy 2. I even though I already had 2 boxes of honeysuckle wallflowers at home, I had to get one more. Because why not? I only use the honeysuckle wallflowers in my office. The other rooms get any wallflower that tickles my fancy the day it needs changing. But only honeysuckle for my office. It's my happy place.

I have a thing with any and everything 'stress relief' from B&BW. Pillow mist, room spray, shower gel, hand sanitizer (see below), I just want to feel relaxed. I'm trying to work on my stress level and not let things bother me so easily, and having a peaceful, calming scent really helps. As you can see, I got the Eucalyptus Basil and Eucalyptus Tangerine shower gels. All of the aromatherapy scents are amazing. I have a 'sleep' shower gel that I really love. Even Briam uses it from time to time when he's had a long day. The gel just feels so luxurious and bubbles up nicely, leaving you feeling relaxed and ready for whatever life brings you, even if it's nighttime.

Hand sanitizers. I need them. All of them. They were only $1 each. I'm down with that. My little pyramid wasn't too effective though, poor little stress relief sanitizer wouldn't balance properly. It's all good though. I keep these in my car, in Briam's car, in my purse, in my office, on my nightstand, and the rest have a home right next to my desk waiting to be used. Because of my health, I'm all about hand sanitizer. I have a cat, I work retail, I cook a lot, and Briam works outside with cars. I need to be thoroughly sanitized at all times. See how some match my hand soaps? Clever. 

Endless Weekend: Raspberry Lychee Sorbet & Sun-kissed Magnolia
Pacific Cool Breeze: Jade Flower & Sea Spray
Dazzling Diamond: Citrus, Berries, & A Floral Touch (No Longer Available)
Sweet Pea: Raspberries, Pears, & Soft Pink Petals

Fancy Friday: Chloe + Isabel (On Saturday!)

So this isn't really a sponsored post. It is my own business. I work for an amazing jewelry company called Chloe+Isabel that you seriously need to check out! The make the most beautiful jewelry, have a lifetime guarantee, and all of the pieces are hypoallergenic! For this fancy Friday, on a Saturday, I wanted to show you some of my favorite pieces that I've been loving lately!


This is the newest addition to the Chloe+Isabel line, a new perfume! With beautiful notes of peach nectar, bergamot, jasmine sambac, white violet, and vanilla absolute, this scent is perfect for spring and summer! This scent lasts all day and even works well in your hair! I don't know about you but I love spraying perfume in my hair and being able to get a fresh scent every time I tousle my hair! 



This is the Terrace Blooms Toggle Bracelet. and It happens to go perfectly with the earrings I showed you in another Fancy Friday! I love toggle bracelets! I don't what it is about them but they have such a "Tiffany's" feel. The bold yellow and beautiful turquoise make a stunning combination that will surely be an attention grabber at your next BBQ! 



Maybe it's because I'm head over heels in love, or maybe it's just because I love dainty rings, who knows, but I seriously love these "Be Mine" Nesting Rings! They're so cute and make such a darling statement. It could even be used as a simple promise ring! Were them together or separately, getting 2 for the price of 1! 



I've been wanting a charm necklace for quite a while now! It's so elegant when done right, and Chloe+Isabel got it on point! I love Ship Wheels more than anything so you know I was super excited when I saw this! You could hook it onto a necklace, bracelet, watch, handbag, or even use it as a cellphone charm! 



And now for the grande finale, the badass Multi-Strand Signature Torsade Necklace. We all need that one piece of jewelry that makes our LBD turn into a badass LBD. This necklace is gorgeous, elegant, hardcore, and amazing. It is beyond one of the most beautiful fashion necklaces I've ever seen!

Fancy Friday

Buy all the things. The closer I get to graduation the more I want to reward myself. As I pass each final, I want to reward myself even more. I guess when you work so hard at creating a better life for yourself, you actually want to see those efforts become tangible rewards. These nothing wrong with treating yourself after all your expenses have been taken care of. This includes putting away some money into a savings account. I'm a firm believer in taking care of your business before you take care of yourself. But that's also why the rewards are ever so nice.  


I can not say enough about Fossil. I think they are an outstanding watch company at a reasonable price. They are on the higher-end of the watch game, but for the quality, function, and beauty, it's definitely worth it. I bought the Riley Multifunction Stainless Steel Watch in Rose Gold about 9 months ago and it's perfect. The colors, the fact that it holds up to me wearing it everyday, water resistant, there's just so much more I could say. But it is a bigger watch, which is why I've been eyeing the Olive Three-Hand Stainless Steel Watch! So pretty, dainty, and decked out! 


I mean, who doesn't love a good pair of dayboat shorts? The color is beautiful and they have little fishes in a vibrant yellow all over. These are like the perfect quintessential South Florida Girl shorts! When I first stumbled across Vineyard Vines I immediately fell in love. Too bad I don't really frequent the beach or go yachting on the weekends... Nope I chill with Briam and watch Futurama reruns. But I would look super cute at home in these shorts! Check out these Fish Embroidered Dayboat Shorts in Aquamarine here!


Is it really that obvious. I love Pink. I work at Pink. I enjoy the occasional "my friend just turned 21, I guess we need to party" party. I'm also a fan of the "I just passed a test on Strategic Planning in 8 minutes with a 100" party. And even though I'm not a real beach goer, I love a fun beach towel. So when the day comes that I become a real Florida girl and love the beach, you better believe that this Beach Towel from PINK will be in my beach bag! 


If Kesha had a bath bomb, this would be it. And I would happily share a PG bath time with her. Here are the reasons why I need it in my life: 1) It's a bath bomb and I truly enjoy baths. 2) It's exterior layer is gold glitter, I would bath in real glitter if I could. 3) It's called the Golden Egg, Easter is almost here. 4) It's made by Lush. 5) It makes me happier than any other bath bomb. If those aren't all the best reasons why you should get it too, than I don't know how to help you. Lush got it right for this Easter, the Golden Egg is on point!


This looks like an awkward sex toy, I know. But it's actually one of the coolest curling irons I've ever seen. The curls/waves the produce are so fun and beachy that it's perfect for summer. I've seen my friend with hair done to her butt use this and her curls will hold for over 2 days. Legit awesome. I'd be happy with this one from Bed Head or the one from Hot Tools. If we're being honest, this picture was the least awkward of the two. This is called the Rock 'N Roller Bubble Curling Iron Wand. What a  mouth full. 



Obviously I have to toot my own horn here. These earring are from Chloe + Isabel, a jewelry company that I sell for. They are beyond gorgeous, have a lifetime guarantee, are hypoallergenic, and are only $28. Of course I do get a small commission if you buy these, legally have to tell you that, but I wouldn't show you anything that I didn't fully support 100%. check out these Terrace Blooms Aqua Duo Earrings at my exclusively online boutique. 

What are you fancying this Friday?

Lush Cosmetics Haul!

I wasn't going to go to Lush. We weren't even at the mall that sells Lush. But alas, on the way home we passed the mall and I asked Briam to stop so I could go to Lush. And we did. And we bought stuff. I was pretty excited about my experience at Lush. Even Briam got pampered a bit! We go some stuff for him and I got a few things for myself. To see all of the wonderful Lush products we got, make sure to watch the video below!

Splurge and Save: Back to School

It's almost time to be going back to school! I know some schools start this week, but mine starts on the 26th! Only 2 more weeks of summer left! But now is the time to be "back to school" shopping. There are so many great deals and discounts going on that it's beyond amazing. I like to dress a little warmer in school just because the classrooms tend to be so cold! In this splurge and save, you save a grand total of $453. That's a huge savings. That's also a lot of back to school clothes!
