COACH purse STEAL @ Goodwill

Sorry everyone for posting late...once again!
But, I really wanted to share my AMAZING steal at Goodwill.
This Coach purse was originally sold for $102.96
and at Goodwill it was sold for $39.99 but it
was half off for this week and I happened to buy it!
So, I got it for $15.74 (with tax).
This goes to show...that you SHOULDN'T
take thrift stores for granted!
You  never know what you can find :)

BTW, you're probably wondering if this purse is authentic
or not. It is, no worries. It has the original tags on it
with the original packaging and everything else!

Haul-ah! #1 - AEO, F21, H&M, Gap, Kohl's, Goodwill

From now on, I will be calling my hauls...Haul-ah! #whatever.
Today is Haul-ah! #1!!!! ENJOY :)
AVENGERS!!!!
Puuurrrrr-feeeccct! Way to start out a blog!
The Avengers rock! If you haven't seen the movie...well, you're missing out!
I found this gray tee in the Men's section of Kohl's and could NOT
refuse on buying it. It was on sale for $8.99.
Who's your favorite AVENGER?
Gap Pink Shirt - $12ish after discount
Originally $19.99 and on clearance for $16.99
I love the sleeves
Lauren Conrad Studded Skirt - $5-$8 (Goodwill - new w/tags)
close-up of the studs and flower pattern
Decree Lace Top - $2.50 (Goodwill)
ELLE Gray-White Sequined Top - $3.50 (Goodwill)
Shirt was on sale so it wasn't $7
WEATHERVANE
Back of WEATHERVANE jeans - Goodwill
These jeans are amazing on! And, they're so unique!
The back pocket, featured above, is quite long on the buttocks.
It like drags down towards your thighs more so your butt looks nice!
I'll post up a picture of me wearing them and showing you how this
looks whenever I start wearing these jeans.
American Eagle Shorts - $24.99 each
This is the tag of one of the workout pants I got from Forever21
I didn't take an actual pic of the pants or
other stuff I got from F21 since they didn't turn out well
That's it for the haul pictures. Hopefully I upload the haul video soon! Thumbs up

2 OOTD - Spring Wear

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already seen these pictures, but just in case...I wanted to post these two OOTDs up since they are perfect for the warm season. And, I just love how they look!
H&M Pink Top - $7.95
American Eagle Blue Shorts - $24.99
 I love them shorts! They're so comfy and I just love the color!
The pink top is comfy as well and so light weight.
I've def. been turning heads since wearing it!
Maurices Black Tank (not easy to see I know) - $9.99
Lauren Conrad Studded Skirt (Goodwill)  - $19.99
The skirt was originally $40-$60, in store, but Goodwill had it for $19.99.
What a steal! I actually didn't pay $20 for it, but rather...$5-$8 out of my pocket!
I had a gift card and discount so...this skirt was def. a must have buy!

Hope you enjoyed my short OOTDs <3

POP of color makeup tutorial


I recently bought a nicely pigmented and long-lasting eyeliner from Milani and I am just in love with it! Here, I am using Milani LIQUIF'EYE Metallic Eye Liner in 04 Aqua. I highly recommend this color (not the black) because it is just amazing! It lasts very long and is quite difficult to take off. It's very comparable to Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On pencils...but better. This eye liner is what inspired me to (finally) film a tutorial. This look is DRAMATIC, so...beware! I was even a little shy to wear this out in public. People kept staring at me!

Below is the video for my makeup tutorial:
(don't hate...appreciate! this is only my 2nd tutorial)
Y'know...I just noticed that the title for this look was derived by Hollyannaeree's Aqua Pop tutorial! Oops! Oh well! The eye liner was called AQUA! : P

MORE PICHAS!
These are all the eyeshadows I used for the tutorial.
All eyeshadows are from both Naked palettes.
Swatch of the eyeliners I used:
Physician's Formula 2-in-1 Eyeliner & Lash  Boosting Serum,
NYX White Eyeliner, Milani LIQUIF'EYE Metallic Eye Liner in 04 Aqua
MyGlam lashes (packaging) from April's bag
Bottom half of how the MyGlam lashes (packaging) looks like
This is how the actual lashes look
Pucker up for the camera! <3 muahs
It looks like a fishy!!!!

Target Beauty Box/Bag


This is the first time I've received the Target Beauty Box/Bag, so I didn't know what to expect. I saw some pictures of the products on Target's Facebook page, but they still didn't seem all that great...until I got them.
I came home one day and just found this Target-printed box on top of my bed. At first, I was like, "WTH is this?" Then, I realized that it was the beauty box!!! I instantly opened it and was amazed at the products. I needed a new lotion and found one. Inside was the travel size Nivea Extended Moisture Daily Lotion. I tried it and it's awesome, much better than the Aveeno one. I haven't tried the other products though. I was too excited to try the lotion. Besides the products, the box also included a Target coupon book with coupons such as $1 off a Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara and $1 off a Nivea lotion, etc.

Did any of you get this Target Beauty Box/Bag too?


Products:
1. Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes (7 wipes)
2. Nivea Extended Moisture Daily Lotion (travel size)
3. Pantene Color Preserve Shine Conditioner (travel size)
4. Neutrogena Visibly Bright Daily Facial Cleanser (travel size)
5. Target coupon book
6. London SOHO New York Mini Makeup Bag

Beernsten's Candy Store

This is the only candy store in town!
Beernsten's is known for it's fine chocolates and designs!
It serves ice cream as well as hot drinks such as coffee and hot chocolate!
Think of it as a mini-cafe!
Today, I had the chance to finally visit it and try out some of the stuff!

Yummy chocolates!

Haha, these are the ONLY Jimmy Choos I could ever afford.
Clever and unique, isn't it?

Rock candy!
Avatar The Last Airbender - fire vs water !!!!

That's all for the pictures. I couldn't take anymore!
My hands were stuffed with candy and ice cream!
