FREE Target Summer Beauty Bag!

I love Target! Its one of my favorite stores to go and browse and shop. 

I also love shopping Target's beauty section since they have expanded and included lots of other brands that are different from the regular drugstore brands. Those include Elf, Jemma Kidd, Pixi, and Sonia Kashuk.

Every season Target comes out with a Free Beauty Bag up for grabs either on their website or on Facebook.  This bag includes deluxe samples for hair, makeup, and body. They also include coupons in the bag as well which is great for me because I love to coupon.

So right now up for grabs on their Facebook, Target Style is giving away their Summer Beauty Bag.  The contents will remain secret until we receive them but I'm sure it will be great as always.  These run out fast, so sign up and get them!

Like them here and request for your bag!!

NOTD - French, Silver, and some Borders?

Yes, I"m pretty late to the Nail Art trend.  So the new thing is the Caviar Nails, by the time I get to trying it, the trend will be over with lol.  Anyways I decided to play with some nail polishes to use and paint my nails.


One of the most recent trends I thought I saw was the two-toned border art? (is that how you say it?) So I decided to try it out. I didn't come out as well as I thought, as I'm not as talented in Nail art. Darn hand kept shaking! So I only have one picture to share.

Used: Zoya Ibiza and Sephora by OPI Metro Chic

The second attempt that night at nail art featured white French tips and a silver/glitter line. (excuse the dark remnants of the previous manicure on my cuticles)

Used Wet & Wild white polish and Milani 3D Holographic polish

I kept the French polish on for some time as I wasn't too fond of the border art. I'll definitely have to try it again maybe with different colors to see if I like it.  For the time being I'll keep practicing! Nail art, even painting my nails can be time consuming! arrhh!

Weekend Finds and Almost Buys!

Its been a long while since I've been on here! I basically disappeared for some time.  Alot of things have been happening these last two months and I've been busier than ever before.  Now when I come home from work, I just want to cook, eat, rest, and go to sleep.  I have yet to find more motivation to do anything.

The man and I have also moved into our new home and with that, it took a huge toll on us.  We are still in the process of moving stuff around and unpacking which will never end from the way I see it, eventually it will get done.  I haven't even set up my office for blogging and pictures, so it was an excuse for me to stay away! Hopefully I can get things settled and come back to blogging.  I definitely need to finish up a few posts I meant to have earlier in the month ready for everyone plus a few new ones.

Anyways, here are some of the quick items I found this weekend at my local shopping spots. When I was suppose to look for house items, I found these instead hehe!

These were my almost buys! I had to tell myself NO!!

Michael Kors bag - I was in love, but the handles were a bit too short for me.

I really had to convince myself to not get this bag. Coach bag - $199

My No Buys:

This looked cool at first, perfect for papers or my makeup, but the drawers were hard to pull out and put back in. Not sturdy for clumsy me.

Some organizational stuff that I passed for now. 

Quick post to get the week started.  I hope to take a few pics of glimpses of my house or at least my work and makeup area. Once I have those two organized, pics will follow.

Did you have a good weekend?

Strawberry Festival - Weekend Fun!

This is a belated post from the other weekend that I did not post up on blogger.  I took a week off just to relax and focus on other things other than makeup and blogging.  I have many more things to share and show, so I hope to keep this up and get motivated to blog.


Strawberry Festival = Yummy Food! 

One thing about fairs and festivals is the fried foods that we get to indulge in just a few times a year.
Here you go!!

Funnel Cake

Fried Pickles

Bloomin Onion

And the reason why we go every year:

Strawberry Shortcake!

We had lots of fun. Just walked around, talked, looked at other people, laugh, sing, eat, and eat. Can't wait until next year to do it all over again.

End of the night:

 

Will be announcing my Giveaway Winner soon! Can't Wait!!

Totally My Style - Casual Pretty

Love Pinterest and Polyvore! My favorite places to find styling tips and fashion ideas!
Here's two looks that are definitely my style. 


Totally My Style - Casual Pretty

 

 

Casual Pretty to me is more on the casual part but with a some prettinest here and there.  I love the added accessories in the pictures above, it really compliments the outfit and give it more of a prettier look than just the jeans and shirt kind of outfit. 
I'm definitely a casual dressing girl. I love to be comfortable and chill but still look like I attempted to put an outfit together.  Sandals and flats are my faves and love all the handbags because they are mid size and still goes with the outfits.  Who can go wrong with jeans? White, dark washed, bleached, as long as they are jeans, I'm cool with it.

What's your Style?

Dreaming of Closets

Lately I've been pretty busy with getting things ready for the home Mr H. and I will hopefully be getting soon.  One main aspect of a house I would consider is the Master Closet.  I currently have a small closet, not a walkin, full of items that are over flowing.  I needed a walkin closet, which the house we like does have and its a pretty good size.

I've done a bit of picture research of what items I would love to have in my closet.  If only I had a closet the size of a bedroom, I could totally do whatever I wanted, however I don't, so I can only dream of the most amazing closets I will never have.

Dreaming of Closets:

I'm in Love with this one below:

This will probably the closest I get to dream closet.

I actually like the last picture design because it looks just about the right size for the walkin closet in the house and it has many different aspect that I need for all my clothing and accessories.  Who wouldn't want a closet like Mariah Carey or Kimora Lee, I sure would love one, but then again I don't have that many items and I would not know how to organize everything. I know that I definitely want space for shoes, dresses, drawers, clothing accessories, and more space. Still looking at different alternatives and seeing what will be most logical and easiest for everyday life.

What would your DREAM CLOSET have?
