Starting Anew!!!

After coming home from a quite unhealthy week in New York, I decided to start a new lifestyle! I always try to be healthy in what I do but sometimes temptation does get the best of me and I end up taking way much more than I need.

Whenever I start these ' cleanses' I always start on Mondays and end up failing by Wednesday, so tomorrow (Tuesday) will be the first day of my 'diet' or whatever I wanna call it. My mom recently ordered the p90x system which I will do right when I finish breakfast tomorrow. Hopefully I can keep up this routine, with exercise and eating better and maintain a healthy lifestyle for quite some time now. Although I always say this, I truly mean it because of how bad I have been doing lately.

Newest Lip Combo Obsession

hey friends,

lately i've been obsessed with mixing lipsticks to create the perfect hue for my emotion or feeling that day. Sometimes one is just not enough and i want the love to be spread. i recently acquired my first beautiful ysl lipstick. it is a rouge volupte in shade 2

ever since losing my MAC hue lipstick, i was lacking a nude lip.  the formulation of this is magnificent, probably the most moisturizing and pigmented lipstick i've ever tried. it applies like a dream and give the perfect sexy nude lip.

sometimes during the day when i'm not full on with my makeup and maybe only wearing foundation and eyeliner, this can be a little much. it is an opaque nude so it can seem a little dramatic for just running errands or even work. this is when i pull out its best friend. MACs new sheen supreme line, in the color Gotta Dash.

this looks more orange in pictures but it is actually a beautiful pinky coral. their sheen supremes are almost the same type of formulation as the ysl rouge voluptes, creamy and moisturizing. i love pairing these two together to tone down the nude. the combo creates a beautiful peachy nude that seems perfect for the changing of seasons into spring. 

bad quality but you see my point about the peachy pink nude. no gloss on that either, both lipsticks are so shiny and creamy that a gloss would be no use. 

anyways, GOTTA DASH KIDS <3

More Snow??

Lately I can't stop thinking about spring clothes and makeup! I'm so sick of this winter that every outfit I try on looks bad. I just can't wait for a time when I don't have to wear a coat and can show off my pedicure in cute sandals (see previous post!)

I have been dreaming of bright fuschia and coral lip colors, and some of the best ones out there are being released by Bobbi Brown.

these are the new Bobbi Brown Rich Lipcolor shades I've been lusting over!

Rich Guava is a light coral-y reddish pink that I think would look good on almost any skin tone

Sweet Nectar

A less red version of Rich Guava with a more pastel quality

I know what you're thinking, don't these look alike? I can't help what I like!

And then there's Soft Coral, the most unique out of the bunch. Essie's Tart Deco nailpolish in lipstick form (drool)

For the more daring girl, there is the bright fuschias that I would reserve for nightime or special occasions

this is Mac's Impassioned lipstick, a cult favorite a a true fuschia color. This is number one of my Mac wishlist right now.

On the same level as Impassioned is Estee Lauder's Wild Fire

The most orange out of the bunch, only for the brave of heart

Once I get my hands on one of these, I'll be sure to let ya'll know!

i want shoes

these are some opening ceremony booties that i've been wanting for so long. i think they're extremely overpriced, as everything is at opening ceremony! i think they're the perfect spring boot, and since they're white they will almost go with anything. this is more of a lust item for me.

these are really cute repetto flats. i have never been a fan of flats but i think that the fabric and the color make these really attractive. i also really like the idea of a pop of color on the foot!

then there are these AMAZING cacharel "flatforms". these are my ideal heel for the spring/summer. if they werent 700 dollars i would probably get them :( 

just some shoe porn lol
