Alice & Gaga

I know everyone has seen tons and tons of pictures, reviews, and swatches of the Urban Decay "Alice in Wonderland" palette, as well as the new Lady Gaga for MAC Viva Glam lipstick. So I'll spare you a long post. But hey, I just wanted to share in the fun. They are both beautiful products that photograph brilliantly! And they wear well too ;)

For someone like myself who doesn't own a lot of UD shadows, this palette of their 16 best-selling shades (all re-named) is a must.

I was going to buy this regardless! I love her, I love MAC, and it's for a good cause. Later in the Spring, I am going to buy the coral-red Cyndi shade. I think it will look better on me once I am tan again.

Do you own either, none, or both?

The Look of ♥

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine was amazing. The boyfriend and I went to Laguna Beach to celebrate our anniversary. We stayed at a beautiful hotel that was located overlooking the ocean. I really love it there. We honestly spent most of our weekend just people watching, window shopping, and eating! Saturday night, we went out to dinner and here are a couple pictures of what I wore:

He took this one for me ;) I have on:

~Dress: Rodarte for Target (such a smart buy, I love it!)

~Black Cardigan: Express last year

~Wide patent leather belt: Windsor

~Pumps: Kenneth Cole Reaction (DSW, another great buy)

~Assorted Jewelry: All Over The Place!

I also carried a clutch from Express but it isn't shown. And I didn't end up doing red lips a la Penelope Cruz. I was planning on it, but then I went to MAC on Friday and picked up the new Lady Gaga for Viva Glam l/s...it is a fun, super bright pink! I just topped it off with some fashion scoop though to tone it down a bit and make it more wearable.

All in all, I had a great time and our anniversary was the best one we've had yet ;) Oh, and here is a picture from our hotel. It was such a lovely sunset in Laguna.

Thanks for stopping by, and thank you so much to my 100 readers!

Lauren Conrad ~ A Ray of Sunshine

In keeping with my current need for anything non-wintery, I just wanted to share some pictures of Ms. Conrad. She has been wearing a lot of the citrus color lately, and I am loving it! It's a breath of fresh air.

She looks like an old-Hollywood glamour girl.

I'll just wear what she's wearing please.

It's no secret that I love Lauren Conrad. Forget Laguna Beach and The Hills, this girl has style. She's just naturally pretty. And I want to raid her closet. And I want her clothes. I still love my neutrals, but I think from now on, i'll follow her lead and keep an eye out for yellow.

***By the way girls, I hope you don't mind me doing a lot of fashion posts lately. I still love my makeup, but I have been following various fashion bloggers, and I can't get enough. I find myself buying more clothes (and shoes) and buying less beauty products. But I still love both! And I want to continue blogging about both! Variety really is the spice of life. If that's ok with you ;) ***
