Manicure Fun: Rose Gold & Mint

Happy Monday beauties! I wanted to share with you a simple manicure that I did this weekend! Lately, I have been really into rose gold accesories, I think they are way more fun than your standard gold and silver jewelry. So, when I saw Essie's "Penny Talk" I sort of fell in love. It is a fabulous color and it reflects really well! So to spice my manicure up a little bit, I added a mint green color to each of my ring fingers'. The color I chose was Maybelline Color Show in the color "Green with Envy." I absoultely adore this color! Mint green is one of my favorite colors! I think this manicure looks as if I have 4 shiny new pennies and one old green penny...don't you think?

Have a lovely week!

California Adventures

Hello beauties! I know what you're thinking, "where have you guys been?" Don't worry, I can explain. Diana and I have been really busy. We are in different states and its difficult to write posts in a non-home environment. I promise that once we get back to Chicago we will try to be full time bloggers! Anyway now that that's clear, I would like to share some pictures with you guys! I have been having a lot of fun in California, enjoying family time and going places. I went to my cousin Ruby's wedding last weekend and had a fabulous time. It was truly beautiful seeing the happy couple enjoy they're wedding day! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

This is a lake where my cousin took her wedding pictures. It was absolutely beautiful!

Some mountains I encountered during a walk.

A beautiful sunset!

What have you guys been up to this summer? Share in the comments below!

Petite Moment: Louboutin Cinderellla Slippers

Your feet have just found their prince charming! Christian Louboutin designed this amazing pair of Cinderella glass slippers in honor of the Cinderella Diamond Edition movie coming out soon. These red-back heels are decorated with lace, Swarvoski crystals, and sparkly butterflies. Only 20 limited edition pairs were made and they will be distributed worldwide in a giveaway. Recently, designers have been designing clothing inspired by Disney princesses and I personally love to see the different interpretations. I think these shoes are fabulous and it would be amazing to own a pair(plus I love sparkles!) I will show you guys below different pictures of the shoes so you can see different angles of these beautiful shoes. What do you guys think of these shoes? Leave a comment below!

Tag: What's Your Makeup Style?

Hello lovelies! Sorry we've been so M.I.A. lately, but we have been very busy this summer! In a couple of days, Diana and I will be on 2 different coasts(her in New York and me in California), so we will try our best to keep up! Anyway, on with the post!

So, I found this tag on www.elleandblair.com , and I thought it would be fun to do! This tag has 8 beauty questions that are made to find your beauty style. I will put the questions 
below along with my answers!



1. EEK! You’ve got five minutes to do your makeup for a date. What’s your minimum?
2. Pick a trend—crazy cat eyeliner, super hot pink blush, or feathered false lashes?
3. If you had to either give up all makeup for two months or give up your skincare for a week, which would you pick?
4. What beauty products are always in your purse?
5. Are there any beauty products that you keep coming back to throughout the years?
6. Smoky eyes or red lips?
7. Lipstick or lipgloss?
8. Are there any products that you never expected to like but ended up loving?

My answers:




1. EEK! You’ve got five minutes to do your makeup for a date. What’s your minimum? That's so little time! But I would definitely apply a BB cream to hide some imperfections without going all out with foundation, put on some mascara, and of course curl my eyelashes so my eyes will pop!
   
2. Pick a trend—crazy cat eyeliner, super hot pink blush, or feathered false lashes? Crazy cat eyeliner! It looks amazing!
3. If you had to either give up all makeup for two months or give up your skincare for a week, which would you pick? Skincare! I love mascara too much :p
   
4. What beauty products are always in your purse? Tinted/stained lip balm, hand lotion, and an eyelash curler.
5. Are there any beauty products that you keep coming back to throughout the years? Maybelline Full 'N Soft Mascara. No other mascara can beat it for me.
   
6. Smoky eyes or red lips? Red lips!
7. Lipstick or lipgloss? Lip gloss.
8. Are there any products that you never expected to like but ended up loving? Waterproof mascara, it stays on so much longer and really wasn't as hard to take off as I expected.

I tag everyone to do this and leave your answers in the comments below!

Have a great week!
