Happy Summer everyone!!!  So sorry that I have not posted in a while...I have had a really busy start to the summer.  I just got back from two different week long vacations!  (which I will be sharing with you soon.) Todays post will consist of my July ipsy bag!  I swear each month they get better!  Honestly, not sure how they will top this months... This bag.  Seriously.  I am obsessED! They sent out 5 amaaaazing products this month and I litereally love all 5.   Firstly, is the Octavio La Playa sea salt spray for your hair.  This is obviously a necessity for everyone's summer bags!  Smells super yummy and I love spraying it in damp hair then doing a braid and after a few hours taking it out and whalah!!  Mermaid hair! Next is the Gel Effect Aurora nail polish .  I literally just put this on in like 5 minutes with a clear top coat and I am loving the color.  Hopefully it lasts a while like gel sh...

Hellllo friends!!! :D I hope you all are having an amazing weekend so far.  Unfortunately I am under the weather and have been working for 6 days straight so I am exhausted! Today I will be sharing with you my June Ipsy bag!  I loved the bag this month.  Not only are the products awesome but the bag is too cute and perfect for summer! So this is the bag.  If any of you have felt the Triangl bathing suits...it feels just like that.  Suuuuper soft and black which is perfect because no stains show!  And then the zipper is this really bright color which I am obsessed with as well. So the first product is the Keratherapy Daily Smoothing Cream which I have yet to try because you use it when you dry your with a hair dryer which I don't have.  LOL.  I just let mine dry naturally. The next product is the Dr. Brandt Pores No More Vacuum Cleaner mask.  This product I actually really enjoyed!  So you are meant to apply ...

Hi guys!!!  HAPPY WEEKEND!! YAYYYYYY :) So todays post I am going to be talking about an app/website called Wanelo which stands for want, need, love.  This app/website is basically online shopping where you create an account and follow stores and you can save products to your profile.  It reminds me a lot of Pinterest because when you click on a product, it takes you straight to the website where you can purchase it! I just really wanted to share this site with you guys because I think it is so amazing and I am obsessed and I think you all should get it :D. Check out my account to see what I have been loving lately! http://wanelo.com/charlotterudd/products PS: this app/website makes awesome gift ideas! I hope you are all having an awesome week and stay tuned for another post in a couple days. xoxo

Hi everyone!  HAPPY MONDAY! :)  I'm sorry for not posting in a while....have been busy and honestly haven't done anything very exciting. lol. BUT!! Today I will be sharing an amazing recipe that you will probably end up using again and again. Fairly easy and straight forward...just make sure to follow the instructions. (: Ingredients you will need: ~1 cup of sugar ~2 tblsp of vegetable shortening ~2 eggs ~3 tblsp of sour milk (if you do not have, just put 3 tblsp of almond milk into a small bowl and add 1/2 tsp of lemon juice and let that sit for a minute or two, and there you have your sour milk!) ~1 tsp baking soda ~1 tsp salt ~1 tsp baking powder ~2 cups of flour ~3 brown bananas (mashed) ~1-2 tsp vanilla extract ~1/2-1 cup of dark chocolate chips/shavings (depending on how much chocolate you want.) First!  You will want to preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.  This recipe can make 1 loaf or 12 muffins and then have a li...

Long time no speak guys!!!  How have you all been?!  GOOD I hope! :D Soooo who has never heard of IPSY before?  Well I am going to assume that none of you have...A friend of mine actually told me about it and I was instantly hooked.   IPSY is this amazing little brand where you send them $10 a month plus no shipping fee and they send you a small little bag/makeup bag filled with a handful of products to try!   When you sign up, you have to answer this "Beauty Quiz."  And let me tell you...I had so much fun taking the quiz. LOL.  You answer questions like, "What color are your eyes, hair, skin etc."  AND THEN!!!!  You get to choose which brands you want to try (based on the ones they offer of course) and what style of products, for example: hair care, skin care, makeup & tools.  (I cannot remember all of them...sorry!) But basically I just got my first bag and I was so excited to open it because what they send you is obvious...

Good evening special friends!!! :D I hope everyone is excited for the weekend and had a great week.  Mine was a little wonky...but I am glad it is the weekend. I had two awesome weekends in a row and I just wanted to share with you! The first weekend was a quick trip to Monterey with Tyler.  We went because there was a bike tour? show? competition? I don't know what it was called. lol.  But it was so fun!  We ended up camping in the back of our truck because there was no open camp sites.  oops.  We watched some of the competitions and took our bikes around to look at some of the tents that were selling cool bike stuff! We had a Japanese dinner the night we got there. Tyler blowing up our mattress for us to sleep in the back of the truck which turned out to be soooo fun and adventurous! Our morning view.  Lol The bike convention was freeeezing in the morning. The back of this car on display had backpacks from Tyler'...
