Lovely Short Fim


I babysat today, and took the 2 little girls to the National Arts Gallery. There, we watched this lovely short film. I truly enjoyed this piece and recommend you watch it. It's a little hard to understand some what the kids are saying because of their accents (which I love by the way), but you can honestly get past it no problem.

Sephora Lip Stain - Review


I LOVE these little things! They are perfect for summer. They add just the right amount of colour.

There are 2 ways I like to wear it. If I apply it once, it gives me a tinted, sheer colour that is nice and subtle. If I want a nice, bold, lip colour, I apply two to three coats of the stuff. You can also apply it over lipstick to REALLY go for it in terms of bold lip, but I haven't had a chance to try that out yet.

When you first apply it, it feels like the product will be really drying to your lips. But it's the complete opposite. It doesn't dry my lips out whatsoever and is creamy and smooth.

Cons: It doesn't last as long as I would like it too, but the stuff goes on so smooth and creamy, I can forgive that (even though it's suppose to last long).


I currently own the lip stain in 06 or forever fuchsia. I will be getting two more of these in 01 Always Red and 03 in Strawberry Kissed. 


06 - Forever Fuchsia

01 - Always Red

03 - Strawberry Kissed

Overall, I RECOMMEND

OOTD - Turban + Floral Shorts


Shorts - H&M
Shirt - Charlotte Russe
Sandals - Urban Outfitters
Turban - Belt from a Dress

Things To Look Forward To

Here are a few things to be looking forward to in the next weeks....

1. A Forever21 Haul
It's probably going to be a lot of accessories and beauty products. I am holding off on clothing shopping until Europe :)


2. Sephora Haul

Can never get enough makeup!



3. Loose Button 


Just ordered a 3 months worth of Luxe Boxes from Loose Button! I will make videos/reviews of each one before I decide if I want to continue purchasing the boxes.


4. Europe Trip


Probably to be expected in a few months, but I will do a whole travel series for my 3-week trip to Europe! What to buy, what to pack and how to pack...what to wear while traveling, what to bring in carryon ...etc.
I will aslo be chronicling my entire vacation with loads of OOTD and other various videos! This will be a BIG series!

5. And finally, of course, loads more of OOTD!

Hope you are looking forward to it :)
