Outfit of the Day!

Outfit of the Day!

Hey guys!
I just wanted to show you my outfit of the day! This is a great outfit for the spring time, especially if you will be inside somewhere cold like the mall or a restaurant because of the layers. However, it’s also great for being outside on those cooler spring days.



Today I’m wearing a chambray tank top with white polka dots, along with a blue-green scarf, both from Anthropologie.  I am also wearing black skinny jeans from Kohl’s and a gold Fossil watch. As for shoes, I am wearing pink/nude flats from Target. I have also curled my hair to make this look a little dressier.

I hope you guys like it and keep checking back for more fun things!

May Glam Bag!

Hey guys!

I know I haven’t uploaded an Ipsy post in a while, but here’s what I got in my May Ipsy bag!
First off the bag is really cute, it says “VIP: Very Important Products”








The first product on the left is a lip product from Urban Decay. It comes in a little packet kind of like a booklet. Inside there is a primer pencil along with two different colors, Failbait and Bittersweet. These colors are so beautiful but I have yet to try them out because it is a one-time use product which I don’t really like.













The next product I am going to talk about is the top left CC cream. It is a really great CC cream that I like to use under my eyes to cover up my dark circles.

The product to the right of the CC cream is a product I’ve been using almost every day. It’s a leave in conditioner and it leaves my hair feeling silky and smooth, plus, it smells amazing!! This is probably my favorite product from this month’s bag!

The top right product is a bronzer. I’ve used it a few times and I think it’s a great product and really pigmented. I’m glad they gave me a bronzer because it’s perfect for the summer!

Finally, right above the bag is an eyeshadow brush. This is a product I am not thrilled about because out of the five months I’ve had Ipsy, this is the third eyeshadow brush I’ve gotten. I mean, a girl only needs so many! Nonetheless, it’s still a good quality eyeshadow brush.

That’s everything I got in my May Ipsy bag!
Keep on checking back for more fun things!

Let's Get Crafty! - DIY home decor!

Hey guys!

Today I’m gonna show you how to make your own terrariums!
Here’s what you’ll need:
  • ·         A glass jar
  • ·         Rocks/pebbles
  • ·         Dirt
  • ·         Plants (I used succulents)
  • ·         Decorative objects (optional)

So let’s get started!

The first step is to get a clean glass jar. You can use anything you like. I got mine, along with everything else, from Walmart. Next you’re going to cover the bottom of the jar with a layer of pebbles. You want to make sure to do this step because it’s going to act as a place for the water to drain so the soil doesn't get too wet and soggy.



Next, you are going to put a layer of dirt over the pebbles.
After, you’re going to take your plants out of the pot and plant them into your terrarium. This is the fun part because you can get as creative as you want! You want to make sure the plant is covered in as much dirt in the terrarium as it was in the original pot. 



After that you can add all sorts of decorative objects. And that’s it! This is a super fun and easy home decor DIY and can even be great presents!





I used succulents so if you use these types of plants, make sure to water them once a week!
Come back for more fun things!
