Birthday Outfit/Haul

Hello Ladies! Today I will be showing you what I wore on my birthday (when I went out to dinner with my friends) and what I got for my birthday. Keep in mind that I am not trying to brag in any way, I'm just so excited to show you all what I got =]
Oh, and if you would like a review on any of the products, please request it in the comments section below! Thanks!!!

So this here to the left is what I wore!

It's a maxi dress that I bought from Forever 21 and I felt so pretty in it! It fits me really well and it's colorful and bright, which is perfect for summer!
I was also wearing Black wedges from Steve Madden, but you can't see those. My cardigan is from Bebe and all my jewelry is from Guess.
















Now on to what I got!!! My mom and dad got me a brand new Coach purse and let me just say that I have been wanting this bag for MONTHS and I was so happy and blessed to receive it!
I think its perfect for me, and I'm obsessed with white bags lol.





















Next my parents also got me a new camera, since I broke mine this winter. I love taking pictures with my family and friends, and I am going on vacation soon for the summer so a camera is almost essential for me. Plus, now I can take better pictures of swatches or clothes for you guys =]




The camera is a Sony Cybershot W350 and it has 14.1 megapixels! How awesome is that!

And yes, I just HAD to have it in pink haha













Next I received a perfume from my lovely aunt and it is Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears. It smells so fruity and yummy!! For sure a summer scent!!

















Then from my friends and some family members I got lots and lots of Lush items, which made me super happy!!!!!! There are so many that I will just list them:
Honey I Washed the Kids Soap

Honey Bee Bath Ballistic
Flying Fox Shower Gel
Ma Bar Bubble Bar
MMM Melting Marshmallow Moments Bubble Bar
Rub Rub Rub shower scrub
Sakura Bath Bomb
Rockstar Soap
Gorgeous Hand Creme





One of my friends also had something made for me which was just SO precious!! It's a jewel encrusted star with my name on it! I can't seem to find a photo of it, but it was gorgeous!!

Well, these are the main items I received and I was so happy and blessed to get it all. I am so thankful for everything though, and I'm so glad that my friends and family got such thoughtful gifts!!!

Please comment, request, and follow ladies!! There's more to come =]

It's my birthday!


Hey ladies!
Today is my 20th birthday!! Honestly, it was just the best day ever! My friends and family did SO much for me and I am grateful for it all. My family supports me through everything that I go through in my life, and I can never repay them enough for that. My friends stick with me through my issues and heartaches and I could never survive without them. I am WHO I am because of the people that surround me with good morals and values. So, this might be a short rant but I think it's worth it! I hope you guys can all appreciate the little things in life, the way I have learned to do, and soon you'll be much much happier =]
This is all for now! Please support me by following my blog...and I promise I have new posts coming!

MAC To the Beach Collection

Hello Ladies. Today I would like to share with you a few things I bought at MAC last week. As you all know, MAC's To the Beach Collection came out and I was in love with it ever since I had heard about it! I love summery colors and shimmers and who doesn't love the beach?! So of course, I had to walk on in and check it out for myself at my nearest MAC counter. However, I ended up buying only 2 things from the collection. From the normal line I bought an eyeshadow in Expensive Pink and so far I love it.

I purchased an eyeshadow in Sweet and Punchy and a lipstick in Funbathing.
The eyeshadow is a veluxe pearl finish, so yeah, it's shimmery but not chunky with glitter or anything. I absolutely LOVE it and recommended it 100 percent.

Now the Lipstick that I purchased is a brownish, reddish shimmery color and it is a creamcheen so it applies super soft. I think it's a great color for the summer, and it really flatters my bronzey skintone.

The packaging is super cute for these items and I loved the idea, but overall the colors were not amazing. I was excited for this collection for a really long time, and I feel that it did not live up to my expectations. Or maybe it's just because I don't need to stock up on all of the bronzers in the collection lol. I honestly feel that the colors, for the lipsticks and eyeshadows, were nothing different from the normal MAC products.
Don't get me wrong though, I did love the idea =]

Also, I really wanted Marine Life but it was sold out at my MAC! I wasn't super upset, but I think it would have been a cool addition to my collection.
