Hello friends! I hope your March is going well so far.  Mine has been super busy which is nice! I have been wanting to tell you about some amazing primers I have been using! One of my goals this year is to bring you more beauty posts like the one on the toiletry bag from last week. I realized that I have yet to write a post on a beauty product that I love using. Really the only beauty posts I have done are about my Play by Sephora subscription.   So, today I want to tell you about two flawless face primers and an under eye corrector that I have enjoyed for the past several months. When I started blogging back in July of last…

Hey ladies!  I am taking a break from my fashion posts today because I want to tell you about an awesome toiletry bag I recently purchased!  We all need a good bag to put shampoo bottles and our daily beauty products in when we travel.  These days most of us have a good many of them.  My husband had one request when we got married and that was to only have a few bottles in the shower and under the sink.  HA!  Fourteen years later and that has never happened! I am overflowing with things under my sink, on top of the sink and in the shower. Poor guy!  I never asked him if he was joking about that but he has not pressed upon…

Hello friends!  I hope all is well with you!  I am seriously glad that February is the shortest month of the year! February just so happens to be my least favorite month so I’m glad it’s the shortest.  It is the month of love and that is just about it.  We get deep into winter, the days are so short and Spring is so close you can smell it!  There is a crazy lull in the fashion world that makes coming up with good content challenging. That is why I am glad I picked the Play! by Sephora subscription to write about.  It is my favorite subscription but more importantly it is consistent and comes once a month.  Well, as long as it makes it…

Hey y’all!  I finally found time to try some of the items from my Play by Sephora December box.  I loved the “Glam Straight” theme of it! So cute!  Deep down inside I wish I was glam but at least I can like glam things lol!  This sample box is focused on giving you the ultimate night-out look. The box contained the following and below are some shopable links if you are interested in looking at any of them. Smashbox Cover Shot Eye Shadow Duo in Golden Hour:  First of all, the colors in this eye shadow duo are AMAZING! They are called Turned On and Psyched. I went straight for this when I opened my box! One is a dark bronze color and the…

Hey Ladies! I found the coolest cosmetic bag for my mother for Christmas and I wanted to share it with you!  Not only is the cosmetic bag really cool, but the company behind the bag is pretty impressive!  They are Ellis James Designs.  If you have ever looked for a cosmetic bag, especially for travel, you will know that there are NOT a lot of good choices. I ended up looking on Amazon and found them there. I decided to go to the Ellis James Designs website to see what they were all about. I was impressed with the company mission and the products looked like they were high quality and functional.  Not only that, but the price was outstanding for the Large Cosmetic Organizer…

Ladies, I am so sorry this is so late!  I have been trying to get to this and things just keep coming up!  I haven’t even had the chance to really look at what I got in the box and try anything yet.  I will say that I have purchased the Makeup For Ever HD foundation from Octobers box and put the Makeup For Ever boosting serum and Becca Shimmer Primer on my Christmas list! All three of these came in the October box and I loved them and will be wearing them.  The color of the foundation that came in my box was not a match to my skin so I had to go get some more samples and when I found one that…

Hello Ladies!  I really wanted to do a post on my recommendations for holiday gifts. I wanted to make it fun and different and could not figure out what to do.  As I was laying in bed one night I remembered I needed to get some Chick-fil-A calendars for people for Christmas. We have done this the past few years. I try to get them early because one year they sold out.  This is something that people truly love to receive for Christmas and don’t usually purchase for themselves.  It is so simple and it’s the gift that keeps on giving!  Wow, LIGHTBULB!  That would make a great post for Christmas gift ideas! I decided to round up a list of things that I feel…
