Get Ready With Me: Party (Red Brown Smokey Eye)

Hello everyone!!!!!!!!! I have been so bad at blogging lately I can list a whole bunch of excuses but I will save you from hearing all that and say it wont happen again :). I had my first full week back and university and I am pooped, I am home alone on a friday night and its so great to finally relax after a busy busy week. I will have a couple posts up within the next week hopefully after I get all of my many readings done, how is there homework already when school just started!!! I posted this video on my youtube channel a couple days ago and it is a makeup look I did from last weekend. I promise there will be regular blog posts after this and not just a whole bunch of videos. I hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

This Month On Instagram: August 2013

Hello everyone!!!!! Long time no talk please excuse my absence for the last month. I broke my beautiful Macbook Air back at the beginning of August so I havent been able to upload pictures to edit!!! Thankfully I have bought its replacement so now I can upload some of the photos I have taken the last month and get back on the blogosphere. I am moving to a new apartment, so soon there will be some different scenery for my photos, my new place doesn't have a balcony so I am going to have to figure out a where I will take them there. Ever since I started Instagram I have wanted to do a post on my monthly photos since I love seeing other bloggers posts like that. August was a pretty good month, I went to VELD which is a electronic music festival in Toronto, began filming more things for youtube, and hung out with friends for the majority of the month. I am so not keen to go back to school again but Uni starts later this week. I hope everyone has a great day and wish everyone starting school good luck!!

July Makeup Favourites!!!

Hi everyone!!!!! As you can see this post is a bit different since it includes a video. My lovely boyfriend spent way to much and bought me a camcorder for my birthday since he knows just how many youtube videos I watch, it is a mild obsession. I seriously feel like videos are so much better for anything makeup related since you can include a lot more in a video then in a blog post and then I can get back to doing outfit pictures as well. Sorry I am so awkward but I figure you have to start somewhere also the bloopers at the end crack me up every single time I was sitting on the couch editing and chuckling to myself the whole time. Have a great day everyone!!!

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 :)
