Haul - Hollister, Express, Forever21, Famous Footwear, & Younkers

(one of the places I went to)
Not much to talk bout here so I'll just show you what I bought!
And, no, I'm not rich! I do tend to have lots of hauls,
but I just save lots of money, then go out and shop! :)
ENJOY

HOLLISTER
My FIRST pair of Hollister jeans...believe it or not!
They're so expensive that's why this is my first!
$25
The back of the same skinny jeans
The back of the other pair of Hollister skinny jeans I bought
$35
lace cami for $10

EXPRESS
Love this quote! It was like on every clearance shirt!!!!
$20
Usually, I'm not into these kinds of shirts,
but I thought that I should buy it since I have nothing like it.
For both shirts the total was $30ish since I went during the buy one,
get one half-off sale during President's Day weekend.

FOREVER21
The first two necklaces are $5.80, the second is $9.80,
and the earrings are $3.80. I bought a long-sleeve lace
shirt too, but forgot to take a picture of it. I didn't buy much from F21
since I went last minute right when they were closing! Darn!
And, no! I'm not like those kinds of customers that shop last minute!
F21 was out of town and I just HAD to stop there! Hehehe!

FAMOUS FOOTWEAR & YOUNKERS
I needed new running shoes! It's almost spring/summer so gotta LOSE WEIGHT!
close-up of the boot design/texture
The Pumas were about $60. The Relativity boots were 85% off!
Younkers was having a huge sale...even on their clearance!
These boots were originally $59, but I got 'em for $10!
EPIC SALE!!!!
Of course, I could've gotten better-looking ones,
but they were all out, not my size, et cetera.
I really wanted the boots that looked like UGGs,
but they were still so expensive. They were only
like 50% off and that was still $50+.

Thrifting + Giveaway Update

Today, I went thrifting and bought tons of clothes...$45 worth of clothes.
I only bought two items for myself, 1 for my mom,
LOTS for my sis, and my brother-in-law.
Below are my findings along with how much I bought them for, etc.



I created a Photobucket slideshow instead of
uploading the pictures directly on my blog
because they're always rotated the wrong way
and it bugs me to death how my pictures look
very unorganized being that way.
Is this better? Let me know!

BY THE WAY...

This Hello Kitty sweater I wore in the video is from TARGET



UPCOMING GIVEAWAY UPDATE:

In my last video, in the description box, I mentioned
that I was going to be doing a giveaway in my next video.
But, I completely forgot about the giveaway because
I don't know what to do/give...yet.

Comment below on what you would like to win
whether it's a gift card, or makeup, you name it!
I'm at a loss for picking a prize or prizes.
Also, give me ideas on WHAT this giveaway should
be for or WHY I should even bother with one.

My first idea was to just do a giveaway for the heck of it.
The prize was going to be a full-blown $50 worth of
assorted makeup such as a foundation primer, foundation,
concealer, blush, bronzer, eye primer, eyeshadow quad, etc.!
I'm not such a fan of gift cards. The free shipping is great,
but a gift card has no meaning to it.
It's like I just dumped something onto someone!!!!

Somethings are for sure for the giveaway:
1) You must be a Youtube subscriber.
2) You must be a follower/subscriber of my blog.
3) ...hm...it'll probably have to be something creative

That's it for my haul and giveaway update.
Comment below if you have any questions!!!!

Uber Cool Car!!!!

EYELASH CAR = PRETTY CAR

The other day when I was visiting Aurora Hospital, or whatever,
I saw this uber, cool car out in the parking lot where I parked!
I have never seen anything like this!
This guy that was right behind me was saying to my boyfriend,
"That's a hint...she wants that car now."
Honestly, I think it's cute and all, but I wouldn't put eyelashes on my car.
Whoever did it is very creative and the lashes make her (or even his????)
car more unique than any other car I've seen.

Any thoughts? First impression?

Thrift Store Haul

Puuurrrddddyyy!

My sister went thrifting today and happened to pick out some
AWESOME American Eagle shirts for me while I was at school.
Unfortunately, they were either small or unappealing on me!
BOO!

Regardless, the shirts are nice and in good condition
so that's why I'm assuming they costed more.
Each shirt was about $7+.
If you're interested in buying them I am selling them
on this Facebook app called Style.ly or something.

Here are the other pieces I got:

My Valentine's Day


Although this is a day late...Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!!!
(whether or not you have a significant other)

Above is my dozen of roses, 2 balloons, and Dove chocolates I got
from my boyfriend for V-Day. He was actually out of town so
he bought them from a flower shop and had them
deliver it to me at work. How sweet! I couldn't stop blushing!

What did you gals get? And, if you don't have a significant other...
what do you do on this day?

I've heard people call it the "declaration of being single day." :)
I think even if I was single I would still send out chocolates 
and make valentines for my loved ones.
It's a day full of love, which isn't just for your partner,
but also for family, friends, etc.

Anyway, I didn't just receive a valentine...
I gave my partner a valentine too!
I know! It's really "girly" looking! I'm really bad at giving guy gifts!
You should've seen me last year; I ordered a dozen roses
and had them delivered to my boyfriend's apartment.
The previous year I gave him two Hello Kitty plush toys.
As you can see, I'm very bad at these kind of things!
I tell him that I would be the perfect boyfriend!

Nonetheless, I did give my boyfriend something 
more masculine for V-day...aside from the bag.
I gave him his favorite cologne Hollister SoCal
and a black tee from Aeropostale.

Below are more pictures of my LOVE present. Hehehe

Physician's Formula pH Matchmaker Lip Gloss Review

Can I just say that I absolutely hate how I cant't rotate my pics on Blogger?!
Me with Light Pink on
Have you ever seen a light-up lip gloss before? With a mirror?
Of course you have! But, this one is a little different!

Physician's Formula has designed a new lip gloss that will
actually match the color of your lips according to the lighting.
It has something to do with the pH levels...therefore,
the name pH Matchmakers was derived.

From my experience using this for several days, I gotta say
I'm in love with this lip gloss: 1) I prefer lip gloss over lip stick any day
2) it's very sheen/shiny and 3) it matches my lip color...sometimes.
Like any product there's gotta be something bad about it.
No product is totally perfect!
Like the packaging stated, this product works under certain conditions.
Even though at times my lip color didn't completely change...

I'm still satisfied with my purchase...because
I GOT IT FOR FREE!

How?

At CVS, this lip gloss retails for $9.99, BUT
it comes with a $3.00 off coupon attached to it AND
for any Physician's Formula purchase of $10+
you get $7.00 in extracare bucks.
So, basically, I got it for free.
Whether I got it for free or not, I still love this product.
What can I say...I'm a lip gloss lover! <3
