I was super excited to start trying all of my new products as soon as I opened my bag, and now I just have to share them with you all! Here is my June Ipsy haul!

2. Urban Decay- Lounge Eyeshadow
3. BOO-BOO COVER-UP concealer
4. Klorane- Waterproof eye make-up remover
5. Vasanti- Kajal Waterline eyeliner in intense black

Lets talk about our dirty little secrets… highlighter!! I never used to use a highlighter in my makeup routine, and some days I still don’t. But when I really feel like getting all dolled up its a MUST. I am super excited about this new highlighter by Dirty Little Secret Cosmetics because its like a highlighter and blush all in one! (and I love blush) The color is Bellissima.

I’ve always suffered from dark under eyes (no matter how many hours of sleep I get). SO of course I’ve been looking for the best concealer out there and had to add concealerto my ust haves on my Ipsy profile. This cover-up is actually very smooth going on!

Urban Decay is celebrating 20 years in the biz and they’re letting us all sample one of their most iconic shades!

Who doesn’t need a water proof eye makeup remover?! Well I am loving this sample from Klorane because its made with soothing cornflower and it helps to strengthen your lashes!

What would life be like without black eyeliner? Well I don’t want to find out! This liner by Vasanti Cosmetics called Kajal Waterline in intense black is AWESOME!

I love fun companies like Ipsy! You can receive monthly shipments of awesome products at a discounted price! Just like mine and Alexa’s company It Works! Let me know if any of you have tried these products and how you like them!

What I Wore Wednesday: Belt it!

Its summer! Which means everyone is wearing dresses to the office, to the beach, or just around town. This summer, boho shift dresses and fit and flare styles have been everywhere. I have been loving the style, but for the office, I think that wearing a more causal dress makes you look a little less professional, but don’t get me wrong I do throw them on when I am feeling the need for a comfy day!

I wore my favorite dress from Brandy Melville, and I decided that I needed to add a belt to it. What I loved about the look was the change from a very large flare, which gives you no shape, to a fitted look that really makes your waist look tiny!

Summer: Our Trip to So Cal

 

I can’t believe that it’s already summer break!

I always say that I won’t neglect my blog, but having two internships and a job, on top of an E board position with ADPi doesn’t leave me too much time! My goal is to keep updating all summer! And I have plenty of adventures to talk about!

Last week I got back from my trip to Southern California, I spent two weeks exploring with one of my best friends!

We packed up a few days after our semesters ended and we were off!

Our first stop was Pasadena with my mom to visit my aunt! Her house is so amazing and I love the city of Pasadena it really feels like home.

Blending up Breakfast

I love breakfast. If I have time to go out to breakfast or whip up some waffles I will.I mean, look at that french toast! I would love to eat that everyday… It wouldn’t be the healthiest choice, but the yummiest!

But during the week I do try to eat healthier and not indulge as much! I also need something to hold me over until lunch! I hate being hungry hours before I can eat. So what’s my day to day breakfast look like?

Feelin’ Formal

This week has been so crazy and fun! I can’t believe that spring break is only 5 days away!

We had our formal last night, it was so much fun! I know that formal season and prom are coming up soon for everyone! It’s such a great time of year.

I love that everyone looks so pretty and all dressed up! We were all saying that picking a prom dress takes forever (finding mine did take forever) but getting a dress for formal happens the week before! Its crazy what a few years can do.

This year I decided to pick a dress style that I normally wouldn’t! I ordered the dress from LuLu’s. I loved the high neck with look with a long necklace. It felt great to rock a look I normally wouldn’t!

A Brownie a Day…

…Keeps the stress away!

I am one of those people that need sweets when I’m stressed! I can eat healthy all day long, but still feel the need to eat a cookie or sundae or something sweet at the end of the day!

But what I really crave the most is the batter! I can eat so much brownie batter! It is the best.

This past week has just been so crazy that sneaking home and playing around in my kitchen was exactly what I needed to do! There is something about baking that makes me feel so relaxed. And when I am stressed my family can come home to a cake, cupcakes, and brownies all over the kitchen because I really needed the break lol.

My Thursday 3: BossBabe Organization Favorites!

When it comes to organization, I would say that my life is pretty disorganized! I can try to be so organized, and then in a week, or two, all my hard work is again a mess!

This semester I am trying to work on my organization of time, and of everything else in my life! Do you ever just feel like there is no time for you too be organized? Yeah me too.

SO! My Thursday 3 is all about trying to be organized and stay that way!

Fit for Break!

I have been working on my new years goals to keep up at the gym and stay active! We all know that it can be tough to stay motivated and go to the gym! So I just wanted to share what I have been up to, so I can be my spring break skinny!

My goals is to lose 8lbs in 20 days! Where am I going for break? You’ll figure that out this week too!

We can all feel this way…

Let’s Talk Lipstick

There is something about popping open your favorite color lipstick and putting a fresh coat onto your lips!

Last year, lipstick was not part of my daily beauty routine, but now it is! There are so many shades of lipstick that are great for an every day look, and I also have some great colors to wear when I go out!

I wanted to share some of my favorite lip sticks with you today! They are my every day go to’s and can look good on anyone.

Staying Toasty!

Finally the crazy winter weather has hit New England! Last month I was complaining that I never get to wear all of my cozy socks and boots, and now I wish that I could move to California.

But this crazy all over the place weather is just New England! So we can make the best of it.
