How to Achieve Soft Smokey Eyes with Pink Lips




pink nouveau lipstick soft smokey eyes

I haven't worn this lipstick in a very long. It used to be one of my all time favorite colors. I have a couple of other posts you can check out with me wearing it here and here. I love this lipstick because I can use it when I have bolder eyes or something softer. Either way it always looks great. And even though it seems like such a bright color on the stick, it actually works out very well for my skin tone.

Natural Hair Styling

Ok so it's been a while since I've posted. I'm trying to be more consistent but life happens. And on top of it all Blogger was not allowing me to post pictures *sigh* so I had to buy more storage blah, blah, blah.
So here is a short little post on this look I did. I tried a bantu knot out on dry hair, and I love it. My hair was super soft and the curls were pretty defined.

My makeup was extremely simple, with just winged eyes and bold lips (pink nouveau and lady gaga lipglass)

Favorite Beauty Product of The Month!

So I wanted to present to you today my favorite product of the month. Ok this wasn't purchased this month but it has become my go-to lipstick. Any look that I have created this color has gone well with it. I know that Nikki Minaj brought on the whole pink lips thing back, but let me tell you now...I totally understand her love for it. This lipstick looks so beautiful with my skin color. During the summer I am a NW45 (MAC color) and I would say I am a shade or two lighter now, and this color is a great accent. This particular lipstick can be very drying to the lips if not used with caution. I usually put on some lip balm before applying it and when on I like to add a dab of Viva Glam I Lady Gaga lip glass. I definitely recommend this lipstick to EVERYBODY.

I'M ENGAGED!!!!!!

So he popped the question..FINALLY!!!! lol After 4 wonderful years together and a beautiful baby girl later, my boyfriend (now fiance) has asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. I think that like many other girls I have been waiting for this all of my life. Don't we all want to find our Prince Charming? Well I believe I have found mine.

Now comes the hard part. Planning the wedding. We want to do it next summer. I have always been a d.i.y type of gal and it would be no different when it comes to my wedding, but this is proving to be a very difficult task. I had no idea of where to even begin. So my mom and I went to Barn's & Noble and I got a wedding planner binder, which so far has been a huge help in helping me start this process. So here is the color scheme I have chosen:


Isn't it beautiful????? I just love this color combination. It is not a very usual one but it's just me. It embodies happiness and summer in my opinion. I just loved this bouquet as well : )

So right now I am gathering ideas for how I want to do my invitations and all other stationary (which I will be designing myself with the help pf photoshop). And I am also starting to look for venues and possible ceremonial sites. This is A LOT OF WORK!!!! If we could afford I would hire a wedding planner but I got this.

So I will try to update you all on this journey that I will be embarking on. There will be lots of d.i.y happening for this wedding and I will post them as they get finished.

WISH ME LUCK!!!!

First Outfit Of The Day


Hi everybody, since following some ladies on the latest fashion I noticed that blazers are going to be big this season. I had been wanting to get one for a long time, so this past weekend I went to a thrift store (what better place to find great blazers at the lowest price?) and found this great blazer. I love the color and the length is also perfect for me. It goes great with anything. This outfit was more on the casual side but I can also see myself paring this blazer with a really cute dress and heels...Well I'll definitely have a post for that outfit whenever it happens : )






Basically my whole outfit is from Dots, except the blazer which was thrifted and the necklace which was also from a thrift store. Oh and I have fallen in love with M.A.C lipsticks this one is Pink Nouveau : )
