Jordana Powder Blush Review

Its been a little while since my last makeup review and I saved one of my favourite products for it!! Seriously girls, I had read good reviews on the blushes from blogs and makeupalley but I did not think they would be that great considering just how cheap they are. I bought these Jordana blushes from Cherry Culture for a whopping $2.50 each and I think I had a 20% off code so they might have been cheaper than that, crazy I know. These have replaced my beloved Wet N Wild blushes (review here) as my all time favourite blush product. They are finely milled and so pigmented its crazy, all you have to do is tap your brush into the pan lightly to get more than enough product. Sunlit Bronze is my absolute favourite especially right now in summer because it just gives me this beautiful coral/bronze flush which accents my tan so much, I have been wearing it every single day since I bought it. All three blushes have shimmer in them but I don't find it to be very noticeable on the cheeks. I would highly recommend these blushes although the only downside is they are not sold in Canada, but definitely try them out if you live somewhere that does sell them or like to shop online like I do. Have a great day everyone!!

Summer Inspiration Part Two!!!

Hello everyone!! I seriously love putting together these inspiration posts, I get on Pinterest and there are just so many cool photos to look through. This post is actually my first attempt at automatically scheduling posts since I will be away camping and hopefully laying out on the beach when you read this :):). The beach and swimming were the main inspirations behind these photos, it has been boiling hot out so I am ridiculously excited to go on vacation. I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!!

So Wake Me Up When Its All Over

Shirt: Stitches: $7, Tank Top (underneath) Forever 21 $5, Shorts: Boathouse $15, Shoes: Aldo $13

Hello everyone!!! I thought I would take some bog photos of what I wore to work at a sidewalk clothing sale :). These are my absoute favourite shorts at the moment they are just so soft and they were fifty percent off at Boathouse which is awesome!!!! I bought this shirt on the same shopping trip, I need to take a picture of the back next time there is this cool lace cut out on at the top. Stitches was having a killer sale when I went, they had three shirts for twenty bucks and I totally took advantage of that. I don't know about you girls/guys but Value Village and some vintage shops have gotten really expensive lately, I have been finding better deals in the mall and online. My boyfriend and I were down in Toronto for a Blue Jays baseball game and I found these sandals on sale at Aldo. I had a twenty dollar gift card which is why they were so cheap and I love them so much, I am such a sucker for anything studded. I bought a hair doughnut a while ago and it has seriously saved my life this summer, this is definitely my go to hairstyle it is in the majority of my Instagram photos. It has just been SO hot in southern Ontario and I am like the sweatest person ever (lol) I have to have my hair up. I hope everyone is having a great summer so far :).

Bracelets: Urban Planet $5

Rings: Forever 21 $1.80 each

Its Not My Fault, I'm Happy

Top: Stitches $5, Skirt: Fairweather $15, Tank Top: Forever 21 $5, Flats: Value VIllage $4, Belt: Value Village $3, Watch: The Great Canadian Superstore: $10

Hello everyone!!! I hope you all had a good weekend, I caught my boyfriends cold and am now curled up on the couch with a huge roll of toilet paper since I have no Kleenexes (lol) hoping to get better soon. I took these photos a couple days ago before going downtown to hand out a resume. I freaking love the colour of this shirt, I have been obsessed with it recently and it was only $5 on sale, you cant beat that!! The back is pretty cool since theres a cut out with lace straps connecting to the top of the shirt, I will need to take a photo of that next time. I think I have had this skirt for a couple years now if you go way back on my blog roll it definitely shows up in a lot of posts. I got these leopard print flats at Value Village, originally they were about $7 but some nice lady in front of my mom and I gave us 30% off coupons so they were super cheap!! I have never been much of a watch person but I saw this one in the clearance section when I was looking at makeup in the Canadian Superstore and was sold on it.  I hope everyone has a great day!!

P.S I have recently got addicted to Instagram although I haven't posted any photos yet I have been taking lots so there will be a ton soon. So everyone tell me there Instagram name so I can add it!! Mine is prettyniftyandthrifty :)

I Dont Want Easy, I Want Crazy

Shirt: Stiches $10, Skirt: H&M $20, Sandals: Joe Fresh $20, Necklace: Gift

Wooooo finally my photoshop is up working I am so stoked!! I was very unmotivated to take outfit photos when I knew I couldn't do anything with them. I started working at a boutique downtown and it has def been inspiring me to get back into fashion which I definitely have been slacking on before, late nights at uni resulted in the glamorous outfits of yoga pants and hoodies all year long so I need to get back into it. I bought this skirt a couple of years ago at H&M and never wore it since I didn't really like long skirts. I was going to give it away but thankfully I didnt since I really love wearing it now that I am a bit older. My boyfriend got me this gorgeous necklace although I may have helped pick it out lol. It was a old  travellers medallion, so its supposed to bring good luck on the wearers travels, I always like when things have a story behind them so I just love it :). I hope everyone had a great day, it has been such gorgeous weather here in Ontario lately I am going to go outside and enjoy the sunshine!! 

Summer Inspiration

But recently I made a Pinterest account and have found so many inspiring photos there!!! So I thought I would do a inspiration post like I used to do last summer and clearly I am still very into denim.

This is my absolute favourite eye look at the moment!! I am seriously so in love with bright blue/teal/seafoam green colours they just look so awesome and summery. Sorry for the lack of posts I have been having some rather large personal problems, I moved apartments and there has been issues. Anyways I need to get that all sorted but yesterday I was stoked to find my camera in some boxes and took some photos before I met my friend to go shopping downtown. I sent in a order to Elf a while back to get some things I had used up, so of course I ended up trying a few new things. The Loose Powder is fantastic, it doesn't make me break out and controls my oily skin fairly well. The Acne Fighting Foundation on the other hand was a disaster for me. My skin looks so good in these photos but it made me breakout all over my face after a couple hours, it had wonderful coverage though so I am quite disappointed it didn't work for me, bloody sensitive skin!! I have pictures of the outfit I wore yesterday as well but my photoshop has quit working so my personal tech support (the boyfriend lol) is working on a solution so hopefully those will be up soon!! Have a great day everyone :).
