♡May Favorites♡

Hello! I'm so glad to see May end. This month was filled with so much school work because of testing and I've been seriously needing some R&R. I would like to apologize for not keeping up with my monthly favorites; I don't think I've done one of these posts since last year (wow). But summer break is already here and hopefully I'll be trying out new things for you guys! So here are my favorites this month:

             

  • Wet n Wild's gel eyeliner in Black. I have always been afraid of eyeliner because my hands tend to not make a good line when I try and line my eyes with a liquid eyeliner and I tend to make a mess. Ever since I started using this eyeliner though I have better precision with it it and it is so much easier to control since I use a liner brush with it.
  • Wet n Wild's MegaLast lipstick in Bare it All. This has been my go-to lipstick the whole month and whenever I don't know which lipstick to go with I tend to reach for this color. It is the perfect pink nude for my skin tone and does not make me look dead at all. I love the formula of these lipsticks, it's matte but it doesn't leave your lips dry. 
  • Wet n Wild's eye-shadow trio in I'm Getting Sunburned. To be honest, I only included this eye-shadow palette for the last bronze-y shade. It is literally perfect. I thought there was going to be a lot of fall out from it but it barely does. I don't use any of the other colors in the trio because I tend to go with earth tones for my eyes. But I have been loving the bronze shade so much that I had to include it.
  • Simple Replenishing Moisturizer. This moisturizer has been so good to me. I've always thought that the alba moisturizer was the only moisturizer I would ever use but I picked this one up when I couldn't find the alba one. I don't regret it at all. Whenever I apply it on my face it feels so refreshing.
  • Burt's Bees Beeswax Lipbalm. How could I not love this product. I've always been a fan of Burt's Bees but this lipbalm is the best out of all their products. I love the tingly feeling it leaves on my lips!
  • bareMinerals Mineral Veil. I have tried several drugstore finishing powders and they all end up making me break out. This powder is seriously God sent. It is so light weight and does not leave me feeling cakey at all. It does not have a complete matte finish but it doesn't have any shimmer so it does allow the glow of your foundation to show through. 
  • bareMinerals Prime Time Foundation Primer. This primer has held my makeup on for almost 12 hours, it's just been a great help. 

                        

  • Chelsea Boots. I got mine from Old Navy (FYI). Even though I usually put away my boots for the fall/winter months because it gets pretty hot in Miami but these boots are so cute that I've been wearing them non stop. On days when it gets unusually cloudy and windy these are great or whenever I go out in the evening because it's not as hot.
  • Gold hoop earrings. Seriously, these gold hoop earrings match with any outfit I wear. These are from Old Navy.
                    

Nail polish shades I've been loving...
  • Essie in matte about you.
  • Wet n Wild MegaLast Nail Color in Private Viewing.
  • Wet n Wild MegaLast Nail Color in Heatwave.
  • Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow.

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡

♡Get the Look for Graduation: Emma Watson♡


Earlier this week, Emma Watson became a Brown University graduate. She posted a selfie on her instagram page and I absolutely thought her look was appropriate for graduation. Remember to keep it simple but also keep in mind that you will be taking picture so you don't want to look completely washed out. Congrats class of 2014!

♡What's in my Purse♡

Hey guys, I've been thinking about doing this post for a while now so I've decided it's time and I'm so excited to show you guys what's inside my purse!


I am so in love with my satchel from Fossil. I received this purse as a gift a couple months back but never got around to using it because it seemed really spacey. But now that school is almost over I don't really carry much around except my purse and my laptop. It's the perfect size for me to carry around everything I need without feeling like I'm missing anything because everything is able to fit in here. 



  1. Of course as you guys saw in my summer reading list post, I love carrying around a book with me just in case I find myself with nothing to do. Right now A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway has been lugging around with me.
  2. I always have to have a pair of sunnies with me. How can you not when you live in Miami? Mine are from Charlotte Russe.
  3. I would truly feel lost without my wallet; mine is from Steve Madden.
  4. My lip products are a must for me, even if it is just a simple lip balm. I usually carry about three different type of lip products (as seen above): a lip balm, a lip stain, and a lipstick. My current favorite lip product is Wet n Wild's Bare it All.
  5. My hands sometimes tend to get dry sometimes so I make sure that I have some type of lotion with me. Right now I'm loving the Bath & Body Works one in Warm Vanilla Sugar.
  6. Last but not least, my compact mirror. Every girl should have one of these in their purse for emergencies or touch ups. I love the design of the little french bull dogs (ahhh!) and I got it at Forever21.

♡Get the Look: Rihanna♡

♡Get the Look: Rihanna♡


I loved the look Rihanna showed up with at the Dior Resort 2015 show so much that I came up with a couple of possibilities of what she might have had on. Rihanna with red lips has instantly become my favorite look on her. In my opinion, she can do no wrong.

♡Resort 2015: Louis Vuitton♡

This years show was held in Monaco and it was Ghesquière's second time showing a collection for the fashion house. I was very underwhelmed by most of the collection. The pieces that stood out to me the most were the pant suits! Oh my goodness they were so beautiful!
