NEW BITS & BOBS!!!

By
Hey everyone!  I hope you are all having an awesome week (:  We had a few BEAUTIFULLY hot days here in SF the last couple of days where Ty and I took advantage and went to the beach to soak up some rayssss.  And now the rain and cold is coming back. :|

Not too happy about that TBH.

Any way!  This post cheers me up because it is some new bits and pieces that I have picked up recently and have been lovvvving.  So let's jump into it!


A little while back I went out shopping with a couple friends and did a bit of retail therapy.  (:  My favorite!  We stopped at a few of my favorite shops; Brandy Melville, PaperSource, Davids Tea, Sephora & a little SF coffee shop called Wrecking Ball Coffee Roasters.

In this photo (starting from the left) I purchased the CUTEST mug ever from Davids Tea which I can't seem to find on their website ):  To the right of that is the Quench Lip Rescue from Tarte in the shade 'nude' which I purchased from Sephora.  I love this!  It's like a glossyish lip balm with a very neutral tint.  Feels so good on my lips and the packaging I die for and I honestly need to collect them all!  Next to that I got the Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal mask from Sephora.  I saw this, and wanted to try it because I love charcoal and I love Origins.  This mask makes my skin feel clean and tight!  A nice mask to use on occasion.  The journal next to that is from Paper Source.  And I mean, I just had to.  It is soooo me.  And I feel like being a blogger and being on Youtube, it's nice to have journals and notebooks around to jot things down and to carry with you in your bag!  You will notice that I purchased some washi tape.  It's a new obsession!  I have a Happy Planner and I loveeee to decorate it with different washi tape and stickers!  So I bought this succulent printed one and this trio of ice cream ones!  These Bando stickers are also from PS!  I love that there are pages and pages of cute stickers in here.  Last thing in this shot is this fuzzy keychain from Brandy Melville in like a deep greenish blue color!  Had to have it.

For a while now I have been wanting my own caps.  Sometimes I will wear Tyler's but they are just so masculine and big for my head LOL so I thought I would buy this adorable one from Brandy Melville.  Next to that is the tea that I bought to go with my new mug!  The flavor is 'Ice Cream Cake'.  I mean how could I not go for that?!  If you know me, you will know that I loveee anything that is like 'cake', 'cake batter', 'ice cream', 'cookie', etc. flavored.  LOL (:  Below that, I bought the Kat Von D liquid lipstick in the shade 'Bow and Arrow' from Sephora and I am obsessssed.  The shade is like a warm nude.  Love love love it and I love her liquid lips.  If you haven't tried them yet, go. get. one.  And then I wanted to try the Chloe Roses perfume because I have heard a lot about it and rose is definitely one of my favorite fragrances ever.  I went with the roller ball to start because I still have so many perfumes!  Already a huge fan of this perfume and honestly, I might buy a large bottle because it's so feminine and beautiful.

Here are the last couple things!  I loveee the brand Compartes for chocolate.  If you haven't tried anything from them, I higgggghhhly recommend it.  They are so creative with their flavors and are based in LA and you can order online!  Simply Delish and the bars themselves are so beautiful!  I bought the flavor 'Cereal Bowl' from one of my favorite Coffee shops here in SF, Wrecking Ball.  The 'Legit' pin came from Paper Source and it's currently on my leather jacket with my other pins and it makes me very happy (: And lastly, the top I got from Brandy Melville.  I am loving this color right now and the fabric is soooo soft!  It is a nice simple piece to add to my wardrobe for spring and summer.


I am sorry if this post felt long!  I kind of ramble on with things I like. (:
Do you guys have any of these items?  Is there any products out there that you think I neeeed to try or buy?  Lol.  I am always looking for new products!
Check back next week for a post on my favorite new lipsticks!

Hi everyone!!!  Sorry this post is a little late....but I have literally had zero time to do anything!!!  BUT good news is that I should be done with school in the next couple weeks!  OMG.  I literally cannot believe it.  I have learned so much the past six months and have grown into a stronger and more confident person when it comes to skin care.  I will be sad to leave my new friends but know that we will stay close no matter what (: ANYWAY...lol lets get into the photos! These were all from Christmas Day.  It was literally perfect.  It was just us and we made cinnamon rolls from scratch and went for a ride and then made an incredible dinner!  Oh and cuddled the cats of course.  Very pleased with everything that I got for Christmas too! Ty and I drove down to OC to visit with family and friends for New Years.  Our first stop was at the Too Faced Cosmetics headquarters ...

Hii everyone!  I hope you're having a great great start to the week.  We are still just packing away up here in SF.  Getting ready to move next weekend!  I cannot believe how quickly it has come.  We are trying to fit in all the things that we want to do here before we move. In today's post, I am sharing with you Tyler and I's 9 year anniversary celebration!  It was the most perfect day.  Beautiful weather and it was just so lovely to spend time together. I got us some sweet treats from Susie Cakes a little early because they were too good to pass up.  LOL On our actual anniversary, we wanted to try 'Mr. Holmes Bakehouse' because we have heard so much about it.  And there were toooo many choices. Clearly we went ham and got almost like one of each.  HAHA Too bad we ate them ALL! We came across this view when driving around the city!  How beautiful. We decided to find a secluded bench ...

10 THINGS TO DO DURING THE FESTIVE SEASON...

By
I am excited to be writing this post because I l o v e doing fun festive things this time of year and now that it is December...it's going to fly by.  And I would hate for it to be all over and I have not done anything fun! Here are a few things you can do with your kids, lovers or friends this Holiday season that will for sure bring you some cheer! 1. Watch Christmas films!  I mean DUH!  There are tons of great movies out there to watch.  MY favorites are definitely the old 'claymation' classics like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer & Santa Claus is Coming to Town.  But there are others like ELF & Christmas with the Kranks that are hilarious.  Another great place to watch films like these is on ABC family.  They have a schedule for when they show certain films. (: 2. Look at Christmas lights.  This has a l w a y s been one of my favorite things to do during the holiday season ever since I was a little girl.  You can hop in the car...

Hi everyone!!!!!  ONLY 4 MORE DAYSSSSS OMG!!! As you can see, I am not excited for Christmas at all. (: This post is one of my all time favorite sugar cookie recipes and they are literally so delicious.  I am eating one while I type.  LOL I love that when they bake, they don't spread and the icing is so simple yet so yummy. Let's get started! You will need: ~1 cup of butter softened ~1 cup of white sugar ~1 teaspoon vanilla extract ~1/4 teaspoon almond extract ~1 egg ~2 teaspoons baking powder ~3 cups of flour + more for when you roll out the dough ~powdered sugar ~milk (This recipe yields approximately 30 cookies-that's how many I made-but feel free to double if need be!) Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line two-three baking sheets with parchment paper. In a bowl or in your mixer, mix your sugar and butter together. Then add in your egg and extracts. In a separate bowl, sift your flour and baki...
