Tights = Headband?


Hey Ladies! Thats right I made a headband out of a thigh high tight. I had an assignment for my marketing class that we had to come up with 10 ways to creatively use tights and take a picture of your favorite idea.
Being the girly girl that I am I obvisouly did something makeup/ fashion related.
I used a black lace thigh high and tied it around my head and knotted it on the top of my head and turned the elastic band for the top of your high so that the lace was showing through. Looks just like a headband you can buy at the store!
Don't mind the lack of makeup...
Hope you enjoy this little bloggy
Enjoy =)

Work

Hey Everyone!! I am at work at the Research Foundation right now... I was hoping to have time to put up a couple new blogs this week but I don't know how well that is going to work. I have been working until 8pm and have a lot of stuff to do during the day.
I am almost done with work just wanted to share some things I am currently loving
  • Crystal Lite Grape
  • Loreal Voluminous Mascara ( just recently purchased this I LOVE IT)
  • NutriMirror
  • Scrunching My Hair
  • No Eyeliner
  • I hate that is snowed today in WISCONSIN it was like a damn Blizzard outside.
  • Planners ( with my work hours changing so much that thing keeps me on track)

We had 2 people quit at work so I volunteered to work at night sometimes and so far I am the only one that is working at night. I think sometimes I should not of volunteered. Hopefully I will get up some blog posts soon!!!

Nutrimirror

Hello everyone!
So recently at work with my coworkers we have been trying to shed a few pounds and lose some weight. Just in time for summer. We found this really awesome food log online @ www.nutrimirror.com .
This is a great tool that allows you to record your caloric intake adjust your weight daily, add any exercise, and also set goals for yourself. For me I am just trying to take off a couple pounds a eat a lot healthier...
You all know of my Pepsi addiction and I am trying to cut back so I finally went out and got a water bottle to drink more water before I have a Pepsi. This is going to be hard but today I didn't even have a Pepsi and it is already 8:19 pm. I am doing good!!
You should all check this tool out; really made me realize just HOW many calories I was eating and how I was eating WAY more than just ONE serving size. Check it out and let me know!
OH, and its FREE


enjoy =)

I am a bad blogger

So I promised a birchbox post...yeah OOPS. I was just so excited to get the package and open it that I totally forgot to film it! I can at least tell you what is in it!
March BirchBox...
  1. Befine, Night Cream- I have been using this since I got the package and I am not really noticing a difference it claims to make your face more of an even color. Please, not seeing that.
  2. Blow, Thickening Mist- I love the smell of this but it doesn't really last long in your hair. I have been spraying in my hair pretty much everyday and I don't really notice a difference.
  3. myfaceworks, Sheet Mask- I loved this!! The mask was a little large for my face but I loved the cooling sensation it provided. Didn't notice anything different in my skin but is really a great product but for $55 I think I will pass. Great to try though!!
  4. Pangea Organics, Lip Balm- I also loved this, I love my eos chapstick, but this was a little bit too earthy for me. I didn't really love the smell. I passed this off to my mom but I did try it and love it. The consistency was like carmex ( a little thicker)
  5. Birchbox Treat, Brow Brush- this was honestly a little lame, I dont usually comb my brows but I guess I could start. I haven't used it so far.

This month was just alright for me. I actually read that a lot of people thought that as well.

Update, I am still using up those products I used up a Victoria's Secret Body Cream in Love Spell and a tangerine body cream as well!! I did break down and buy a new nail polish and mascara! But sometimes you just cannot help yourself!
Enjoy =)

Slackin'

Hello Everyone!! I have been so busy with work, school, and friends. Recently, I had a family member pass away. It has been crazy since my last blog but enough about that and on to the good stuff!

Recently, I haven't really purchased that many new products. I am still currently trying to use up all those half full used products under my sink. It is SO hard to try and use those when I have products I like better. Ugh, its alright I will suffer for a little awhile.

I have also realized that I am not very healthy and I have not really gained any weight by eating unhealthy but my body is more "squishy" and I am just not feeling that. I am going to try my hardest to eat more veggies and fruit, kick some of my Pepsi habit (I currently drinking at least 2 cans of Pepsi a day and I don't usually drink anything besides Pepsi and coffee I AM HORRIBLE)

Today we had beautiful weather in Wisconsin so I got on a little Spring Cleaning kick and vacuumed out my car and got some new floor mats! My car was filled with Pepsi cans, lip gloss, and wrappers. I am really bad about throwing that stuff out when I get out of my car. I am really really going to try and keep it clean. Hopefully, this week I can keep on this cleaning kick and go through the clothes in my closet. I have a lot of stuff that I don't wear and I don't know if its because it is winter and a lot of it is short sleeves or what. Guess we will have to wait and see.

I have planned to do some blogs reviewing some more products. I am waiting for my March BirchBox to come and I will hopefully get some pictures of those goodies and put them up. I may even review my products from my first birchbox (February) there were a lot of great products. i have seen some videos on YouTube that have March's birchbox and really doesn't really impress me.

I am off to bed, sweet dreams and look for some new blogs and reviews very soon!!
