Too Many Shoes?!? No .. Never!!!

Now, I love shoes just as much as the next girl! Why? Are you nuts? If you were a female you'd already know the answer, hunny. I was looking around on a website called Infinity Shoes and stumbled across a brand called Miz Mooz Boots .. cute name huh?

They have some really nice boots, also from flat shoes to high heels. I am in love with many of them! I am very picky when it comes to shoes. Here are a few of my favorites! Enjoy!

 

Miz Mooz Women's Wren Flat Shoe

Miz Mooz Women's Sasha Ankle Boot

Miz Mooz Women's Siri Wedge Boot

They also have a brand called Sebago Shoes I found one there that I just loved. It may not be everyones taste but I love flats like these! The old woman in me was screaming inside when I seen these!

Sebago Women's Felucca Lace SlipOn Loafer

I mean what's not to love? I admit these days I haven't bought a pair for a bit. But thats my fault I haven't been looking. Sometimes I browse here and there but I have a specific taste that I can't find in a small town! I found a pair that I loved loved and snagged them right away! That was before chase was born. >.<

I still have them and wear them when my pants are too long! I love them.

Will most definitely keep this website in mind!

Versatile Blogger Award!!

I got a wonderful comment from Miranda's Makeup & More telling me that I won the Versatile Blogger Award! woot woot

Very exciting! Thank you so much Miranda! You are such a sweetheart!

When I was having issues with blogger she was trying to help! A Big HUGE fat thank you to her! I know that people have their own issues to deal with but its still nice to help others when needed. Or to at least show concern so another thank you to Michelle over at All Thing's Girly

So, on to the award!

So with every award there are the rules!

The Rules:

1: Thank the person who nominated you and give them a shout out on your blog with a link to their blog.

2: Share 7 random facts about yourself.

3: Send on the award to 15 bloggers whose blogs that you appreciate and then let them know that they have won the award.

My 7 random facts:

1. I cannot stand chipped nail polish! I find that it looks very messy... so as soon as mine chips I either take it off or put on crackle nail polish if I don't want to take it off.

2. I miss my long hair! Terribly so! I use to have super long hair.. like down to my ass long. I cut it a little after I started working .. I started getting really bad headaches so I thought that if I cut it would lessen the weight. So I cut it to just above my shoulders!! haha I didn't know what to do with it for the longest time!

3. I am like two sides of a coin.. one side I procrastinate for the lesser important. One the other side I am a dedicated person who will stop at nothing to get the job done. Either way once I start something I finish it.

4. At one point I did and I still kinda do want to do videos but at the same time I think well am I good enough.. I doubt myself just like anybody else. I am only human after all! After hearing about the beautiful Samantha Schuerman deleting everything... it really makes you question.. am I strong enough? I know not to listen to negative things. I've learned that a long time ago. I've had to deal with snarky women for a huge portion of my life... and I still kind of do. I still get those nasty looks from other women. I feel that whenever someone is like to another woman of all genders to bash one another I think is wrong.. women should be empowering other women and commending them.. respecting them.. and to think of them as a role model not tearing them down because they can't do the things that others set out to do!
Sorry this is a topic that I feel strongly about it needs to be heard. If you don't agree thats fine.


5. I am very pro choice on alot of things. I believe that if its going to make you happy then by all means go for it... there is nothing else important in this world than your own happiness screw what anybody says... chances are if they are bashing it, its because they're jealous, can't do it themselves, have low self-esteem.. or just an all around jerk thriving off of other people's sadness.


6.There isn't anything that I won't try once.. if its in a safe environment I will try it! Even if I'm scared to death.


7. I am drinking a coke right now and it seriously tastes like cloves... has anyone else ever experienced this? I think its just odd! I don't normally drink pop but it was on sale at Wal-Mart for like $2.97 CAN. So I bought it. Thought what the heck I don't ever buy pop.

2 Blog Awards

Awhile back I was awarded 2 wonderful blog awards from the lovely Teygan at http://montsergirl.blogspot.com 

I was waiting until I found a couple more blogs because I mostly follow well known blogs and re-giving someone the same one just isn't cool because then its a circle! haha :-P

The first one is the Tell Me About Yourself Award

why is it that every award has something to do with 7 facts? ha ha 

The rules

~*~ Thank and link back to the person who awarded you ~*~

~*~ Write 7 random things about yourself ~*~

~*~ Spread the love to 15 other bloggers ~*~

Facts

1. I have been getting super duper tired very easily the past month or so... its not cool! A lady said to me that it could just be boredom haha because its the same thing over and over again.. I do nothing fun! 

2. I am working out again! Which I am loving... weird thing is, is that I love the burn and I love stretching sore muscles.. weird I know but I do!

3. When chase was 6 months old my cervix was almost cancerous.. it was very very close.. the doctor said that I was lucky that I went in when I did or else a few weeks to a month later I would have had cancer. We kept a close eye on it to make sure that it wasn't going to come back but it was seriously the scariest thing ever!

4. I hate wearing glasses when I have done my eye makeup all nice.. it just covers it up and doesn't look nice at all! :-(

5. I know how to apply a full set of gel nails on myself.. no training what so ever. I haven't done my nails in over a year just because I haven't been able to buy new gels.

6. I LOVE ebay! nuff said! haha

7. I don't like taking medicine at all! I feel that alot of things can helped without it. If there is something that I can do otherwise I will. If its really really bad then I'll take the medicine.

Now, in the previous post I had tagged a few bloggers & I tag them again in this one to keep things simple. 

I also received the Classic Beauty Blog Award from Teygan!

Thank you so much hun! <3 Love you!

Again I tag everyone in this post → POST

Thank you so much for reading!

EOTD - Blue Had Me At Hello

 I bought this palette and I had wanted to do a look using it but everytime I was going to I'd end up reaching for my Greed palette which I love!! So I finally today I was reaching for it and was like no! I need to use it today! haha

The colors are so beautiful! I didn't ever like using blue or green eyeshadows.. I would shy away from them! I shy'd away from eyeshadows in general. simply because I didn't know how wear them.. apply it... etc. 

I was a liquid eyeliner girl plain and simple! Until I started watching youtube videos.. that changed my view on it so much ..thanks to beautiful and talented ladies who blog and do videos... Blue all had me at hello!

So the key to this look is blending and blending and layering and blending some more.. I wanted a nice transition of all the colors. I wanted you to see the sea blues. EVERY one of them.. including the black.

After I put on primer I used a nice flesh tone e/s (brulee) for easier blending. (I find it helpful)

Next, I used the 1st color marked on the palette only in the crease and lightly blend the edges (we will blend more later)

I then used the 2nd color marked and put that in the outter corner creating a V. I then lightly blended it in with the 1st color.

Next, I took the matte black which is the 3rd color and created more depth in the eye. In doing so I put it on top the 2nd color.. lightly blending

I then took a big fluffy brush and picked up brulee (flesh tone e/s) and put it around the edges so that when I blend it makes a nice transition. Then blend the edges out.. this always takes me forever because I'm a perfectionist.

If I over blended thats fine if so i'll go back and add little more.. just a little bit at a time. I really don't like fall out so I don't jam pack it on to my brush.

Then I lined the bottom with the 1st color then the 2nd then lined very closely to the waterline I used the 3rd color. lightly blend. Put on liquid eyeliner, curled my lashes used my fav mascara. Then I was done! :-)

Now I hope that wasn't too confusing. I tried to explain it as best as I could

Thank you so much for reading!

NOTD - I've Got Bieber Fever

 I just love this color its such a dark creamy purple and when you look at it in the light it has this beautiful shimmer iridescence to it!

As you can see you can sort of see the shimmer in this one with the flash

When I seen this at Wal-Mart I had to have it haha Justin Bieber is such a little cutie! I love that little guy!

I am getting more into nail polish again which is bad for me because I use to be hardcore haha

I would seriously sit for HOURS doing my nails.. then I had a son and I just couldn't do them without them getting wrecked. But now that chase is older its a little easier. But it takes me away from doing chores which isn't too bad on those days where i just don't want to. It seems there are never enough hours in the day! haha

Thank you for reading!

Wet n Wild Mini Haulage

I was at Wal-Mart last week and seen that they had the 6 palette eyeshadows and thought that I should get some! haha Since they aren't going to break the bank buying them. I had to get one. I also bought a Trio Palette too!

I decided to get the Blue Had Me At Hello .. I thought that they were just gorgeous colors. Swatches below :-)

I also bought Cool As Cucumber this is a trio palette. I just thought that the colors were beautiful! And why not try them out!

Now onto the swatch fest!

Now I was a little disappointed with this one. It took a few swipes to get the color rich and pigmented. However, the color was rich and pigmented on my fingers haha So we shall see how it looks on the eyes. 

I felt a little better so I decided to do a post! :-)

Let's hope I feel awesome tomorrow so I can show you a EOTD with Blue Had Me At Hello palette!

Thank you so much for reading

Christmas Wish List!!!

First on my list and by far the most wanted! I have seriously never wanted anything so badly since I was a kid!

Sigma's Newly launched Mrs.Bunny Essential Kit

Now, the reason why I want these is pretty obvious but also because the design of the brushes are a little more different than the previous collections. A few adjustments here and there.

Brushes in this kit:

Eye Liner - E05 An extra fine-tipped brush that delivers a precise, firm, even stroke to line the eyes. Synthetic bristles.

Pencil - E30 Precise application of color on the crease, outer corner, upper and lower lash line.

Tapered Blending - E40 Rounded and tapered top. Specially designed to apply and blend color on the crease.

Eye Shading - E55 Soft and dense with a rounded finish. Can be used to apply pressed or loose eye shadows and pigments.

Large Shader - E60 Flat shape is ideal for application of cream formulas and eye shadow primers.

Small Angle - E65 Essential for the application of gel or cream eye liner on the upper and lower lash line.

Medium Angled Shading - E70 Angled, tapered, flat top. Ideal to apply highlight shades underneath the eyebrow and on the inner corners.

Large Powder - F30 Very dense with a rounded top. Ideal to apply powder products on face and body.

Large Angled Contour - F40 The angled shape makes this brush ideal to apply blush or contour shades.

Duo Fibre - F50 Specially designed to generate an airbrushed finish when used to apply blush, highlight shades and foundation.

Foundation - F60 Can be used to apply liquid or cream foundation. Recommended to apply moisturizers and conceal large areas.

Concealer - F70 The rounded, tapered, flat shape makes this brush ideal to conceal the under eye area.

Not to mention the beautiful colors! I just love the combo! 

I would also love to get my hands on one of the cities brush collection too! Just because they are so cute! haha :-P

Is there a collection that you've been wanting?

Stages of Beauty

About a month ago I got some lovely news! I won a giveaway being hosted by 

*** All Things Marie ***

I received it pretty fast which is amazing! I love it when I get things super fast in the mail ... it then means I don't have to wait long! haha :-P

When I opened up the box I was so amazed at how beautiful everything was.. I mean the box itself is just wow... Picture of a close up below

I just love it when companies package their items so beautifully. It makes you appreciate them more! I am a total sucker for awesome packaging never mind the product! haha

I just love how they put little butterflies in every order!

On to the product now! This moisturizer that I got was in Radiance which is their 20 something moisturizer it goes all the way up to 50+ I believe!

Even the bottle that it comes in is beautiful!

For Radiance Treatment Cream - 30ml - $52.99

For a 50ml - $74.99

It is pretty pricey! I was so fortunate that I got a chance to try this out!

Also, right now you can get to try this out on their site for a chance to get a sample. U.S only unfortunately. :-(

So far I am really loving this! It is very light weight it soaks into the skin nicely. I don't feel super tacky after applying this moisturizer. I have only been using this for a few weeks now. 

Their results show that you should see a little result of this.. I really should have taken a picture to see.. silly me. I didn't because I didn't think of it.

My skin feels a little more supple and softer... if that helps.

But I will tell you that I love how this makes my skin feel! I may even like this better than my aloe vera!
