The Floral Blazer

I have been in love with Blazers for a while now, always looking for a cute unique looking one to get my hands on. I was recently looking through Karmaloop.com and found this amazing Blazer by Joyrich. I just love the florals and how different it looks. It's a little bold and not your ordinary black or grey blazer and that’s exactly why I love it. I am thinking of getting it but the price is just a little bit high for me right now, although the good thing about Karmaloop is that before making a purchase you can head over to karmaloopcodes.com and use one of the codes provided to get from 10-15 even 20% your purchase. I think I'll keep an eye out for this cutie and maybe in a few days I'll go back and get it.

Been Gone for a While

I know, I have been gone for quite some time, it's been a while since I blogged. I have been so busy and been going through some changes. Not permanent changes of course. Right now I am deployed and away from my hubby and my baby boy. I miss them so much. Due to my job and security reasons I can't really talk about what I am doing and where I am at well I'm in Kuwait but that is as far as I can go without getting into any trouble. I should be going back home sometime next year, again due to the security I can't really say when. I just miss home so much, but I miss my boys more. I hate being over here due to the fact that I can't dress like a girl. I am stuck to wearing just uniform 24/7, and that got boring the second week I hit boots on ground. None the less though I have been keeping up with the latest trends, and the beauty community. It's going to be a long year but well actually, we are somewhat close to going over the hump you know the 6 month mark. My son turned 1 year in September, he walks now and although I am away from him he still can recognize his mommy’s voice when I call home. That's so great, a lot of people would think he would forget and our bond would not be as strong like it would be with a mother that is with her son 24/7, but I beg to differ about that. A mothers bond with her son is stronger than what most people think, and I send videos to my son reading him a book, my husband tells me that as soon as he sees me on TV I have his attention the whole time until it's over. That makes me so happy, that our bond is still the same as it was before I left. Distance makes the heart grow fonder, and that I have experienced. Well, that's pretty much it for me right now; there is not much to say about my life right now. No interesting things happening, but just wanted to update you girls about why I have been MIA. Hope you all have a great turkey day and a good black Friday.
XOXO

A little extras :-)

I have been looking everywhere for a great boyfriend blazer and I could not find any that I liked at a good price anywhere. Until finally I decided to check out http://www.cutesygirl.com/ and I found the perfect boyfriend blazer for me at least it is so pretty and girly I just had to have it. I was also, well my hubby and I have been on the hunt for some new shoes for our little boy, since he is just getting bigger by the minute his current shoes are starting to fit a little tight but still fit him good. We also wanted to get him some white shoes since the ones he has now are black, we all need a pair of black and white shoes right..so we finally found the ones we wanted to get him, Jordan Spizike and they are just too cute...



Forever 21 Picks...

I know I havent been updating my blog and I said I was and do the 365 day project, but I found it hard to do when I'm busy all the time and I don't have much time to take pictures other than of my son. So my birthday is coming up on the 29th woo hoo 23 here I come, anyways, I was planning on getting some birthday presents from the new Mac To the beach collection but figured I would go with clothes instead since I am in need of clothes instead of makeup....since I don't want to spend the extra $$ off base paying the €, and on base they don't have much selection of pretty clothes, I went to my old faithful Forever 21, and like always it doesnt dissapoint...below are a few of my picks...enjoy

Hunt for the perfect foundation

I have been on the hunt for the perfect foundation these past few weeks, I have been using Mac's Studio Fix Powder foundation, Mac's Studio Fix fluid foundation and Revlones Colorstay foundation, needless to say I have problems with all three of them. But I will be doing a review on those on a seperate blog post. Right now I have my eye on two foundations that have had extremely good reviews everywhere. One of them is NARS Sheer Glow Foundation, I have heard nothing but great things about this foundation the only I guess downer about that is that it doesn't come with a pump, but it's no biggie I don't really mind. If it provides good coverage and makes my skin look great then the I could really care less for the pump. The second one which is also alot of peoples favorite foundation is the Makeup For Ever HD foundation. Right now I am torn betweent these too and I don't know which one to choose I really want the NARS sheer glow, but MUFE HD is 2 dollars less lol. I am going to do some more reasearch on both of these see what other girls think about them, compare them and watch more review and will go from there, don't be surprise if I end up with the NARS one... :-)


Makeup for Ever HD Foundation $ 40.00



NARS Sheer Glow Foundation $42.00
