A Little Skin Money Saver I Use...

   I found out this GREAT little secret from Gala Darling. Her blog is fantastic. Use baby wipes, instead of those expensive make-up removing wipes or pads to remove your makeup at night. They do a wonderful job of removing your makeup & feel great.

   Just look for baby wipes containing vitamin E and aloe. This way they will remove your makeup & help keep your skin moisturized. A box of 72 baby wipes costs around $2.50 at big box stores, while a box of 28 Aveeno Daily Cleansing Pads costs $6.47 at the same big box store. Thats almost a $4.00 savings.

T.I.L.T [Things I Love Today] 

<3Watching this:

French Bulldog Puppies
They are so cute! I cant help but smile when I watch them play. :)
<3Loose teas
There are such great health benefits associated with tea. Brewing loose leaf teas is more natural, non-processed way of making tea. It makes a much better tasting cup of tea & increases the health benefits provided by the tea leaves.
<3Survival Bracelet
These bracelets are really cool.
<3Beautiful Headband
This headband is really cool. I am going to try and make one when I have the time. The ribbon used to make these are so beautiful.
<3Bulldogs, specifically French Bulldogs
They are so cute! This breed of dog is being featured in a couple different commercials now, they make me laugh every time. I love to laugh.

                                          Meet Duke!       Hes the coolest bulldog in town. A friend of mine got him from a rescue organization in the Chicago area. He is the sweetest, loving, cuddly dog one could ask for (outside of my Mooser/Fuzzy Face of course!!). He also loves to play & loves water.

<3Dog Rescue Organizations
If you are thinking about getting a dog or puppy anytime soon, PLEASE look into adopting a dog or puppy from your local rescue organization!
Check out Frankie! (I really wish I could bring him home!!)
<3Chatting with new friends. It really puts a smile on my face.
<3Fun Dresses
ModCloth has some really fun dresses that are more ‘individulal’ then you can get at most places. You can go for cute & girly or sultry & sexy. Take your pick.
<3The Neon Museum: Las Vegas
I will go here someday. There are endless possibilities for amazing photographs here. I was so excited when I heard about the existence of this ‘graveyard.’I think it would be amazing to have some of my wedding pictures taken here also (in black & white....perfection). Seeing as I do not see myself getting married in Vegas, it would have to be a secondary photo shoot, oh how glamorous.
<3Kate Hudson
She is amazing.
Her fashion sense is one of a kind and she doesn’t let fame, hollywood, or having famous parents go to her head. She is well grounded & isn’t afraid to try new things (such as her recent fore into the world of directing, Cutlass, in cooperation with Glamour magazine & their readers). She loves to laugh (especially at herself), smiles all the time, is dedicated to her family (specifically her son Ryder), is hard working, & has a deep passion for life. Besides all of that she is gorgeous inside and out.

 

      I LOVE this outfit on her!

Amazing Scent: Juicy Couture

Amazing Scent: Juicy Couture

I have finally found a scent that I LOVE. The ‘Original Scent’ from Juicy Couture is amazing! I wear it all the time. The first time I smelled it I was really impressed. I am not actually I huge fan of Juicy Couture. I go into the store to browse whenever I see one, I am more attracted to the decor then most of the clothes. They decorated with a pale pink suit of armor! Hello, can I buy that?!

I am very opposed to the velour track suits, the only thing I find attractive about those is the comfort. I like some of the purses.

When I was in the store this last time, I found myself attracted to some of their more ‘wearable’ everyday clothes. The brand also has some really interesting sweaters, coats, and vests. I was considering buying a bracelet from Juicy until I smelled this glorious scent.

When I find a scent I like, I spray one of those like perfume cards and stick it in the bottom of my purse so that my whole bag smells of the fragrance every time I open it. Its a great way to find out if you really like the scent & to find out if the scent really lasts or not...if a scent lasts long on paper, it will usually last longer on your skin. When I was laying in bed later that night & I could still smell the scent & I was swooning, I knew this was the perfect scent. Long lasting & I loved it.

The next day (the last day of my vacation), I was happy to find the perfume in a great set lotion, shower gel, & full size perfume at the outlet store on sale.

When I got home I read some reviews of the perfume, I was disappointed that Juicy Couture describes the scent as, “something Barbie might wear.” I totally disagree. I am NOT anything like Barbie & I wear it all the time. I agree with this comment that Tania left on http://boisdejasmin.typepad.com
   

‘Hey, Barbie's a pretty sophisticated girl: she wears couture, goes from work     to cocktails in her     convertible sportscar, owns a mansion, never got married to     the boyfriend she outshines, and is looking pretty good for being almost 50.’
 

Thanks for the viewpoint Tania!
 

The perfume is described as:
‘Juicy Couture includes notes of watermelon, mandarin, pink passionfruit, marigold, green apple, water hyacinth, crushed leaves, tuberose absolute, wild rose, princess lily, caramel crème brulée, vanilla, precious woods and patchouli.’
 

If you have a chance to smell the wonderful scent, do it!
 

One of the things that Juicy Couture does well (besides its perfume & decorating) is its advertising, mostly the photography.
 

Enjoy!

i carry your heart

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
