November Recap

Today's the last day of November! I can't believe 2017 is already coming to an end but I'm so ready for it to be over and begin 2018! This past year has honestly just been pretty bad with all the current events that have happened and it's so unfortunate that we live in such a cruel world. One year down of Trump being president and three more to go. *sigh* Aside from the bad, we can't forget about all the good that has happened too.

This month has been pretty overwhelming for me. This year I turned 25 and they don't lie when they talk about a quarter life crisis because I've definitely been experiencing it. From not knowing what career path to take, feeling discouraged to apply to grad school, to looking for a new job. It's pretty stressful but I'm trying to stay positive and know that everything will fall into place when the time's right.

Colourpop You Had Me At Hello Palette

Today I have one of the two newest Colourpop palettes to share, the You Had Me At Hello eyeshadow palette! I received this last week alongside the SHE palette so I wanted to share swatches and my thoughts on this palette too. I've played with it a bit and I like the shades so far! As far as I know it's still in stock on their site as well as their other palettes if you're planning on picking any up for yourself or Christmas gifts. :)

Sephora VIB Sale Haul

The time has come when Sephora has their famous VIB sale and offers 15 or 20% off which only happens twice a year! Whenever the Sephora VIB sale rolls around....I lose all self-control. *no shame* It's like I forget what self-control is but it's okay because I'm happy in the end but my wallet is sad haha. At least I got 20% off so that's what matters! I got a few things I wanted to try and repurchases. Alright, let's get into it!

The Mom Jean

Hello friends and family! I wanted to share another outfit from the weekend. The quality's a little iffy because 1) I didn't have anyone to photograph my outfit 2) they're mirror selfies but that's okay! This was a pretty casual day for me! I did a little bit of shopping (christmas and friends birthdays will be the death of me) I'm trying not to do any last minute shopping this year. We'll see how that turns out, haha. But I hope you guys enjoy this super casual outfit. I really liked how it turned out!

Colourpop Fem Rosa SHE Palette

Hello friends! Many should know that I love Colourpop for being affordable and having quality products. I placed an order a few weeks ago and took the plunge of purchasing two palettes. I love their pressed shadows so I knew I'd love their palettes. I finally purchased the Fem Rose SHE palette since it was out of stock. But alas! I got my hands on it! Alright let's get into this beauty! 

Fall Florals

Hey guys! The weather is finally cooler here in California which makes me so happy! Here's one of my first Fall outfits. It's very simple (something I enjoy!) because not much thought goes into putting together an outfit. I love wearing dresses for that reason. I wore this outfit Sunday for my grandma's birthday. I typically wear florals during the Spring and Summer but the colors of this dress give it a Fall touch! This cardigan complimented the green nicely and I just love to wear mustard. Hope you guys enjoyed this little ootd post!

October 2017 Favorites

October wasn't really an exciting month in the beauty world for me as I stuck to my already well loved products and trying to save money! I didn't purchase too much new makeup or skincare and the ones I did, I'll mention below! I did purchase the ABH Subculture palette with a 20% off coupon from Ulta but I need to try it out some more. This is going to include other random items so I hope you guys enjoy!

October Recap

How is November already?! This is October in a nutshell. October was a really good month to me. I've neglected my blog throughout the month but to put it simply I've been busy with work, figuring out grad school applications, and other events I went to. But I wanted to share on my blog as well. October seriously flew by but it was a nice, humbling (and spooky!) month to me. It's been a month of growth and lots of good vibes all around.
