VLOG: August 2012 Favorites and quick OOTD

I know this is super late but I still wanted to share with you the products I loved and tried in August. I didnt have many this month as I did not change the products too much but discovered a few good ones.

Enjoy xoxo

August FOTD (Faces of the Day)

I decided to put this post up as I noticed face pictures in my camera roll. I have noticed that through the month of August it has been all about a clean simple face with just a variation of lip shades and balms. In regards to hair I have to admit that with the weather I have maintained my hair in a back or top bun or straigh sleek with no volume. With this hair regimen I am keeping myself cool and my hair healthy since it has gotten very very limited styling and heat as well as chemicals from products such as hair spray and gels.

Want to look like you spent tons of time getting ready? Want to look different everyday? 

• Use studs, dangly, and various types of earrings (Have them handy for choices)
• Change the position of your ponytail, do the top bun, back bun. Or play with a center or side part it makes a big difference.
• Have a bowl with different lipsticks, balms, or glosses for easy grab and on the go. A new shade everyday makes you feel like a different person and can lift your mood.
• Use scarfs, necklaces to change the look of your top. A simple white top can look totally different if worn with a necklace one day and a scarf later.
• Be comfortable and smile.

I hope you will like this post just a reminder to give ourselves the time of day and display our beauty.

OOTD: Weekday Simple Girly

Hola ladies been away for a little bit due to some work related travels. I thought I may not have anything to post but looking today I was super duper casual and thought why not share this. We don't always have to be decked out in the latest clothes and shoes to feel and look pretty. At least that is my thought on it. This is a very simple laid back but girly look. You can look great at school, work, store, or running errands.

Shoes: Toms, Necklace: Vintage Top: Old Nave Skirt: Target

A small drugstore haul I shared on Instagram

Went to a Mariscos (Mexican seafood) restaurant yummy Coconut with shrimp cocktail inside delish and refreshing.

OOTN: Altitude

Decided to post this outfit of the night that I only had these pictures for very limited. Excuse the quality but it was something quick and evening so it was dark. I found this blazer with cute off white and black stripes to offset the neon Cami and fuchsia lips. What i was wearing on my lips and my outfit reminded me of the club we were in that very night so also included an inspiration picture here.

Blazer: Marshall's Skirt: Charlotte Russe

Inspiration Altitude lighting

Cami: Closet Boutique Mary Janes: Fancy Steps
Green and Black and White Bracelet: Forver 21
Black Ball Bracelet: Fancy Steps

OOTN: Adding neon

Hola chicas neon colors are all the craze right now as well as pastels. Somhow the neon always grabs my attention since it looks like its a lighting struvture so bright on its own.

I have only a few things in this color scheme one was a wallet that my mom had bought me at Marshall's and another was also from the same place but a sheer chiffon flowy top. I really loved this outfit it was edgy a bit of a trendy element and super easy to throw together.

Blazer and Pants: H&M Top: Marshal's

Shoes: Mary Janes from Fancy Steps

Necklace: Rainbow Lipstick: Revlon Lip Butter in Lollipop

Mini CVS Haul

Hola chicas I have not been keeping things organized and track of the things I buy too consistently. Part of this is to blame YOU ladies on the blogs and on Instagram keep feeding my buying when you post some enticing beauty products lol.

Well I have been popping into drugstores during my lunchtime or when on an errand and usually these are FLASH trips about 12-15 minutes in duration that usually consist of grabbing things Im curious about or my good 'ol faves.

I had a 25% off coupon loaded on to my CVS card electronically so this is even more ressure to go on my guilt free drugstore runs.

I picked up:
Broadway Nails that were on sale french manicure and a zebra trimmed tip pair.
Ambi Even Tone SPF Face cream
Studio 35 Buffing Brush (I like the small size and how thick it is)
Sinful Nail Polishes (3 of them green and green glitter flecks, also lavender)
WetnWild nail polish (1 forgot the name)
Jordana Easyliner Retractable Eyeliner (I wear this everyday on my lower lashes $1.99 for YEARS)
Kate Moss for Rimmel Lipsticks in 04 and 01 (These were the last two of the collection I needed)
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Foundation and Concelear (This has been my March foundation I am still using it now to test it out)
Hershey's Milk Chocolate and Almond (Not for me someone else ate it as a pm snack)
Stride Spark with B6 and B12 vitamins (Flacro Kinetic Mint woa)

Oh and almost forgot these Revlon lip butters Candy Apple and Lollipop were on sale $4.49 instead of the usual $7.50 or $8.00 last week at Walgreen's and picjed these up on another trip. I know you can find some great deals at Meijer and their beauty supplies

Even with a small to medium loot I walk out feeling good when I go on these flash drugstore hauls plus they have a great policy about exchanging and returning items you are not satisfied with (which I never do) and coupons to top it off.
