What's in My Purse Now?

When I first started my blog, I was obsessed with the beauty girls on YouTube. I still am by the way, but I remember watching those gurus and being totally amused by the "what's in my purse" videos. I've always been really nosey, and I love snooping in my friends' bags, closets, and makeup drawers (with their consent of course!) I posted a Purse Blog the second month I started blogging and I thought it was a really fun post. So because I am madly in love with my new H&M bag, I figured I would do an updated version. Nothing too exciting once again, but I have learned one very important thing about myself: I love lip products, and I carry far too many around with me.

♥ Such a nice bag in a pretty color. And roomy too! It comes with a shoulder strap but I detached it because for some odd reason I like carrying my bags on my elbow ♥

Just the essentials. Wallet, sunglasses inside their case, keys, mini MAC rose pouch I use to hold my cards, a notebook with pen to write my life down, makeup bag, mini lotion, and hand sanitizer. I normally carry my phone as well, but it was charging at the moment.

Makeup bag

Why? Why does one person need so many tubes of lipgloss and lipstick? It isn't even a makeup bag, it's a lip bag! Noted.

~Have a beautiful weekend everyone~

Margherita Missoni

I am having major writer's block today readers, so it's the opportune time to feature my celebrity style icon for the month. Sometimes it just happens. Words don't form correctly, I get a little lazy pounding away at the keys on my old laptop. But Margherita Missoni is so beautiful, and so the EPITOME of jet-setter that I'll just let these pretty pictures do the talking. All photos courtesy of google. Enjoy!

Ta-Da!!!

I know only one exclamation point in my title is necessary, but three describes my mood much more accurately.

H&M Red Rosette Dress from the Garden Collection

Happy Face ;)

What luck! I still can't believe I managed to track one down.The dress is even more beautiful in person. This picture really doesn't do it justice. The only downside is that it needs to be taken in a bit at the bust, and I have no idea how much an alteration will cost. I bought this dress from a girl in Orange County, and it unfortunately isn't the right size. I sort of knew that before I bought it from her, but the dress is so dreamy I just had to have it! Even if it just sat in my closet and I never wore it, that would be fine by me. Some clothes are just art, and this is a stunning example. I do plan on altering it though because I definitely want to wear it. I need some advice too:

What shoes should I wear? I am thinking nude pumps would be great. And minimal accessories so that the dress itself is the focal point. Any other ideas girls?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

Wanna Take a Peek...

...In my shower?! Nicole from NV Beauty tagged me and since I loved reading her post, I figured why not? It's a very different tag than what I'm used to seeing, and I like that! But I was thinking, "Is my shower even clean?" Cuz I'm pretty sure you girls wouldn't wanna see a bunch of lime buildup and soap scum ;) Luckily, I just scrubbed my shower so it looks nice and shiny. Anyway, I don't really have much to show by way of pictures so I'm not sure how revealing this will be. But here's where I get so fresh and so clean:

So let's see: An assortment of shampoos, conditioners, deep conditioner, body wash, MAC volcanic ash exfoliator (Love!), a ridiculous bouquet of loofahs, shaving cream (which the bf insisted I use to ensure he won't be rubbing up against sandpaper legs), razor, face cleanser that I want to use up so I can finally buy some Cetaphil, soap, and a sqeegee to wipe down my glass doors. All-in-all, a very small and measly place to invigorate each morning or evening. Definitely not my dream shower. My dream shower consists of marble floors and a HUGE shower head. Or maybe three to get in at all angles. And no hard water, which is what I have. But at least my product caddy is nice.

Oh and one last thing:

A honkin' big bottle of BedHead Superstar Shampoo - sulfate free, the only type of shampoo I will put on my head. I am trying to use only products that are sulfate/paraben free, but am not quite there yet. This bottle is so big, it has its own spot sitting in the corner of my shower.

I tag ANYONE who wants to show me what lurks in YOUR shower!

Happy Weekend!

♥ Noelle
