Hello and Happy Thanksgiving!
Today is seriously one of my favorite holidays. Second only to Christmas. This day is a special day for so many reasons. It's wonderful to be able to get together with family, stay cozy inside, and just relax with yummy food and celebrate all of the blessings we have to be so very thankful for.

So I'm posting this and signing off for day.
...and tomorrow, because to me, Black Friday is all about staying cozy inside, wearing comfy pj's, and eating leftovers.

But today also marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season!
So to officially welcome the madness week of a thousand sales,  I'm bringing you my COMPLETE Holiday Gift Guide!
In this post, I'll share with you all my list of go-to gifts for both guys and gals, some store-specific sale info, and some of my go-to shopping tips and sites.

The drugstore got me again, guys.
I go for just a few "necessities" (you know, body lotion and blue mascara), and come out with a bag full o' goodies.

But seriously, some of my all-time favorite products can be found at the drugstore (proof here). So it tempts me every single time. Hey, you never know when you're going to find the next great thing there!
So check out my new video below for all the goods on the... goods.
Hope you enjoy it!

Have you guys found any gems at the drugstore lately?? 

Hello, Loves! Today I'm bringing you a peek at my newest palette, the Lorac Pro Palette.

I picked up this beauty during a recent trip to Ulta where I went to spend my rewards points and pick up some sunscreen.  Well, a full-out haul happened.
Oh, Ulta... Isn't that always the way?

You can check out my newest haul video on my YouTube channel showing this palette and all the other goodies I picked up. But since I found this palette to be so special, I figured it deserved its own blog post.
Full of swatch-y goodness.

The palette sells for $42 and contains 16 eye shadows and one Behind the Scenes Eye Primer.

I'm loving the colors... This is seriously one of the most versatile palettes I've ever seen. EVERY SINGLE color is very pigmented and swatches like butter.
Besides the amazing quality, the color selection is absolutely awesome. I've said this a ton of times, but with palettes, I can't justify spending a lot of money on something that I have to add a lot of other colors to to make it work. This one has a mix of matte and frosted shades that work beautifully together, as well as a great mix of highlight shades, darker shades, blending shades, and some fun colors as well.

What do YOU think about this palette? Have you tried it? Will you be picking it up? 

Hello and Happy Friday, Loves! I thought I'd squeeze in one more little post before the weekend.

So I usually keep my "haul" posts video-exclusive, but I figured I'd share with you all my little shoe haul from Target real quick. No fancy photos... Just snapped a few with my iPhone to share with you guys!

So I'm doing this mainly for two reasons- First, because if you've gathered anything about me at all so far, it's that I LOVE Target, and second, well ,because they are SO affordable! All $29.99.  Plus, I've kind of slacked on my "Target Finds" posts lately. I promise I'm going to get back into those!

Back to the shoes... I love that they have a lot more selection online as well that differ from styles you can pick up in-store. You can seriously find any type of shoe you'd ever need there.  I grabbed some amazing finds... Let's check 'em out.

So this first pair is called the "Susy Strappy Heel".
I love these so much... I was really wanting a nude version of my Steve Madden "Realov" sandals that I have in black and gold (Target has a "Susy" version similar to those too, fyi).  These are a dead-ringer for that style. They're actually really comfortable too. This style is available only online.

This next pair is called the "Pearlynn Chunky Peep Toe Heel". I had been eyeing these at the store for a while, and finally decided to get them during my little online spree. I love the chunky heel and the ivory faux snake print material. You guys know I also love a good pop of gold.

These may be my favorite. I'm obsessed with this color. These are the "Tammy Plank Wedge" in Nectar.  These are online-exclusive too. I've never been a huge fan of the plank wedge. To me, they always sort of look like they can't decide whether they're a wedge or a heel. But these are actually really flattering on. These are just the sweetest little pair of shoes ever.

So which ones are your favorites?? Any amazing Target finds lately?

Funny how picking up a few new and special items can brighten your day. Nothing like heading into Ulta armed and ready with your handy little "wish list" of items you need, only to find double that amount of stuff once inside...

Hey, I have no shame. I found some great and affordable items that I cannot wait to share with you all! I also grabbed a new, (actually an old favorite) foundation to add to the mix again.

Check out my awesome new picks below!

Hello and Happy Friday, Loves! I hope you all are as excited as I am about this 3-day weekend we've begun! Get out and enjoy the sunshine! :)

So today's post is accompanying my new Forever 21 Spring Haul video. I usually have great luck with Forever 21 finds online, but I'm telling you guys.... Seriously, I hit gold this time.  I found some amazing pieces that look and feel like great quality that I forsee becoming some of my very favorite items in my closet. Check out all the goods (complete with item numbers if you're interested in anything I picked up) in the video below!



Here is a look (worn in the video) featuring one of my new items from the new haul!
