DIY Autumn Room Decorations

Hello lovelies! Today I wanted to continue with my fall theme and do a DIY Fall Room Decorations post. This will help transform your room from summertime to the fall time with a few simple steps. I hope you enjoy and lets get started!

For the first DIY I drove down to Michael's and bought a bunch of fake leaves and pine-cones. After opening up the packages of leaves and pine cones I took out the stem part of the leaves and took a couple of pine cones and leaves combined and added them on the empty spots on my dresser. This wasn't very hard and it only cost me about $5.00. It also added a ton of color to my room.I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to decorate but not go too overboard. If you want to take it a step further I found this really cool DIY on Pinterest that I think would add a little something to your room.

For the second project I decided to change up my comforter set. I had a colorful one put in for the fall but I took that one out and replaced it with a simple white sheet with a bit of a design on it. I also took out a few extremely bright decoration pillows and replaced them with simpler pillows. Then I took some old fall-themed blankets I had and draped them over the comforter. This gave the room a really cozy feel and toned down my room for the colder months.

Another simple thing that I did in my room was taking out some candles that I had purchased from Bath and Body Works and placed them in dull points in my room. It gave a pop of color to the room and left a delicate aroma. 

The last project that I thought was really fun to do and make was the crayon art pumpkin.

Materials:

A fake pumpkin 

White paint

A Box of Crayons

A Hairdryer

Tacky Glue

The materials should give away most of the DIY but the first thing you need to is to take your white paint and cover the entire pumpkin with it. Make sure there's no orange showing through. I used two coats to make it opaque. You can also use the hair dryer to speed up the drying process. After your pumpkin is white, glue the crayons around the top of the pumpkin where the stem is peaking out. Then use the hairdryer to melt the crayons and voila! You have your Crayon Art Pumpkin. I seriously had so much fun making this it was great. you can do this with friends, siblings anyone really. It doesn't even take very long so you don't have to waste the whole day on one project!

That wraps up my Fall Room decor post I am hoping you guys liked it and I will catch you later!! Byee!

Fall Essentials! My must-haves for Autumn

Hey Guys! How have you all been!? Lately I've been working on revamping the blog and freshening it up. I changed up the style of the blog and it looks so much better now. I was inspired by some famous British bloggers to keep it simple. I think I can still work on it but today I'm here to talk to you about fall fashion. Now I hate letting go of summer just as much as the next person, but the best part of all this: Fall Fashion. Today i'm going to share with you my some things that make the cold season a little better.

To start off with makeup I shift to heavier makeup for the fall. This means making the switch to foundation instead of BB cream and bronzer. I don't know if this is how you do it but I always shift to lighter makeup for the summer and heavier makeup as it gets colder. I also switch back to powder based products from using cream products during the summer time.

     

I think fashion is the part that I am most looking forward to in Autumn. There are so many great fashion trends going on in the fall. One thing I love doing is wearing extremely fuzzy socks inside my boots. I love to get long patterned socks that peek out of my boots adding a unique feature to my outfit. I also LOVE scarfs. They add texture and color to any outfit and i'm constantly wearing them during the fall and winter. Can we talk about Beanies? Oh my gosh beanies are cozy, comfy and definitely a lifesaver when you're having a bad hair day. The compliment most outfits and come in TONS of different styles. These are only a few of my favorite fall styles. I'll give you a link to my Polyvore account where I made my idea of an adorable fall/winter outfit. http://www.polyvore.com/winter_nights/set?id=132199366. Some of the items are way overpriced but this was only for inspiration,

Lastly i'll give you some random favorites of mine for the Fall time. 

Dark Nail Polish is a definite must have for this fall. Darker clothes, darker nails right? I love myself a good plum color or sometimes just a straight out black. Essie is my favorite brand but a cheaper alternative is Sally Hansen Diamond Strength. I really liked the opacity and quality of this polish.

I also am candle crazy during the cold months. I burn candles extremely quick and am back at Bath and Body works every three weeks. It's kind of bad. I think my favorite Fall scent is anything that smells like crisp air or fresh rain. Give me some candles to try out in the comments(:.

One of my favorite drinks for the fall time is the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. Talk about heaven in a cup. The nutmeg and cinnamon add a lot of flavor to the coffee. I also love me a good cup of cocoa with extra whipped cream. I mean who doesn't?

That wraps up my fall essentials! I hope you guys got some inspiration from this post and tune back in for more later! Thanks for reading! Love you all!

Favorite Apps!

Hello everyone today I wanted to take a step back from beauty and show you guys some of apps I have been loving recently. So let's get started!

Luvocracy
Luvocracy is a shopping app where you can find different products and buy the directly of the app. You can also find different people on Luvocracy and see what products they're loving and buy it right off the site. You can do the same, "luving" a photo and then adding it to your main homepage as something you like. It's a great way to find what you need or like without the hassle of having to go out and search for it. I absolutely love this app!

Sleepbot
This is a really cool application that works as an alarm clock. But it's not an ordinary alarm clock. This app measures how you sleep throughout the night based on your movements. It'll wake you up around the time you set it to but it when it measures that your more awake. In the morning, it'll show you a graph of how you slept through the night. It can even record sounds that you made while you were dreaming.

WhatsApp
This is a messenger app good for one on one texting. It provides contacts based on your phone number and lets you use emojis like the ones you would find on an apple device. There's even a fun little background on the message threads! Overall, it's a great app to use for texting.

Netflix
I'm sure many of you have heard of Netflix before. It's a great app that lets you stream your favorite movies and tv shows to your cell phone or tablet. I really love this app cause it's great for travelling, a boring moment and much more.

Hope you enjoyed!

Makeup Update!

Hey guys! I wanted to give you guys a little post on some of my favorite drugstore makeup bag products. Not only do they cost less, but they're still really good quality.

Foundation- Foundation is one of those products that needs to be perfect for your skin and all the good ones tend to be high priced or not in drugstores. For makeup starters much like me its important to find stuff that's manageable with price and material. That's why I love the Revlon Colorstay Foundation. It's got great coverage and leaves your feeling flawless, no cakiness involved.

 Concealer-  This is a very essential step in any girls makeup routine. Without concealer, all of our dark bags and blemishes would be visible to the world to see. That's why I usually use non-drugstore concealers but one that I have been loving is the Sonia Kashuk concealer pallet. I feel like concealer pallets are a lot better than just one shade because you can adjust it to your skin tone during the summer and winter.

Mascara- An eye product that has always been one of my all time favorites is the one and only rocket volume mascara. This mascara does the job by giving your eyelashes a fresh, glossy coat of thick black mascara. It dosen't make you look like a racoon either. The best part, it's clump free and has really cool packaging, 

Eyeshadow- Any pallet with a nude/bronzy theme is perfect for my lids but one shadow that really stays on the lid is the Maybelline Eye Studio Color Plush Eyeshadow. The colors are great for various skin tones and work with any outfit that you could possibly pull out.

Lips- This is my hands down favorite lip product in the history of all other lip products. evre mad. It glides on easy with a smooth texture and is a buildable shade that works. The packaging is extremely adorable and this product somehow manages to moisturize your lips very effectively. It's BABY LIPS!

That's it for my drugstore makeup product post and I hope you guys enjoyed!

Easter Spring!

Hey Everyone! Since Easter is right around the corner i decided to blog some makeup ideas for this Sunday!

Start of with a Face Primer to give your makeup a base and protect your skin. Here, I will be using the Smashbox Iconic Photo Finish Foundation Primer. Next move on to a foundation or a BB cream. If you have big plans for the weekend, you can do full coverage with foundation and concealer. If not you could go lighter BB cream. For foundation, lately I've been loving the Armani foundations. As for BB Cream i suggest Physician Formula's BB Cream. Set the face makeup with a translucent matte powder and a bright pink blush. Next for the eyes i would start of with a loose silver eye shadow as the base. Then, I'm going to take a copper bronze shade and apply it to the outer corner of my eye and blend it in so that there's a bronze-silver contrast. Then using the NYX 5-color Caribbean Collection pallet and taking the yellow color and applying it to the inner corner of my eyes. Lastly i'm taking a blue eye shadow and lining my waterline making sure the line is transparent. For the final touch add a thin line of eyeliner and a thick coat of mascara. Don't forget a bright pink lip stain!

For outfits it varies on your plans but here are some good pieces to give you inspiration.

XOXO,

My secret store

Hey guys! Today i wanted to blog about a secret store. It's a store that is just like one of our top of the line or generic branded stores but the prices are cheaper and the stuff is hotter. My secret store: Icing. Icing I'd a store that sells jewelry, makeup, scarves, bags and much more. Y'all may have seen the store from outside or maybe gone in once or twice but not more than that.  But this store sells amazing jewelry etc. For half the price of Claire's. It also it's just a great place to find gizmos that nobody really needs but wants. Their makeup brushes are fine haired and their foundation brush does the same job as an ecotools brush that's twice the price of an icing brush. So the next time you need some new products, head on to icing.
