July randomness!

July has been a busy and crazy month for us! I wouldn't prefer to have it any other way though... it was great to have lots of visitors and do lots of activities! To close out the month, here's some of our July randomness...

Cupcake's new favorite dress-up item... a tutu that she found at her cousin's house! I will be looking into making one of these for her & will post up a tutorial on how to do them at home!


Reading to Luna...

Pink polish Wednesday! Zoya Anaka

It's a "berry happy" Wednesday with Zoya Anaka! Even though it is still 1000 degrees outside, I decided to go with a bit darker pink today. I love the subtle glitter and shimmery-ness of the color though!

Zoya Anaka:




Happy Wednesday!

Coming up later this week... my new love - Zumba! Favorite shoe recs for Zumba... and a July favorites with still photos will be a new blog post to go along with my You Tube Channel video as well.

Must have MAC eyeshadows!

These are my four favorite MAC Cosmetics eyeshadows and what I would consider "must haves", if you're only going to own four shadows from MAC... then these would be my recommendations!



My four favorite MAC eyeshadows:

- Era

Dior Fall 2012 Swatches

Here are a few swatches (be forewarned, I'm not the best at swatching!) of the Dior Fall 2012 Golden Savannah eyeshadow palette...



Four Golden Savannah eyeshadow colors in the order they appear in the palette:


With the fifth highlighting color in the center, I feel like it is extremely glittery... I don't know that I will use this particular color much:



And some close up pictures of the Dior lipsticks as well... love these colors!

Wild lipstick, from the Fall 2012 Collection:


And some recent purchases... Extreme lipstick in Cherie Bow, and Addict lipsticks in Palace & Pink Cherie:

Pink Polish Wednesday

I decided to go with Zoya's Mischka again this week, so since it is a repeat I decided to do something a bit different for Pink Polish Wednesday!

I have started doing color wheels (just learning, be gentle!) - and wanted to show a few of my favorite pinks compared to each other...
