bon voyage! pt.1

I'm off to camp in the morning! Opening day was actually today, but I went to a Taylor Swift concert tonight and am arriving one day late. At first I felt really bad about going late, but that was until Taylor gave me a high five as she walked right by me. Oh my goodness she is so beautiful! Okay anyway, it's very late and I'm getting up early, so I'll see you in 2 months! For those of you who don't know, soon after I return from camp I will be heading off to Israel for four months! Wow so much traveling... see you soon!

every day im shufflin'

It's summer!!!!!!!

What's in the Bag: Beauty

I get a lot of beauty questions from time to time, and I thought since I haven't posted in a while, I should just talk about my daily makeup routine and such.

Maybelline Falsies Mascara, $7

I'll admit I don't need this mascara. I already have abnormally long lashes without mascara, so adding a mascara that increases the volume and length of lashes drastically is definitely not a necessity for me. I do enjoy wearing it though! It darkens and lengthens my lashes to make them really stand out!

Covergirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara, $9

Yes, I use two different mascaras. recently, I've been only using the Covergirl mascara, and other times the Maybelline. I have used both at the same time. It clumps sometimes, but on other days it gives me the longest and fullest lashes I've ever had!

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Smoothing Stick, $7

For someone who doesn't have the best skin, this concealer is so helpful to cover up my blemishes. It blends right it so you can't even see it, and reduces redness of zits. 

Maybelline Line Stiletto Eyeliner, $6

I've always had difficulty with eyeliners. I never really wore them before this year, only on fancy occasions. I would spend a good twenty minutes in front of the mirror with black stains all around my eyes. I read in Lauren Conrad's book, Style, that to try winged liner (something I had been edging to do), a liquid liner is the best way to go. So I went out and bought the first one I saw, and fell in love the first time I put it on. I wear this eyeliner every single day! I don't wear winged liner as much as I would like to, now that I think about it...but for a first time (or fifth!) buying a liquid liner, I seriously recommend this product!

Covergirl Cheekers Blush, $4

This little blush is perfect for my light skin tone. It comes in so many colors, I guarantee you'll be able to find your perfect match. It brushes on lightly and smoothly for a perfect, subtle, peachy look. 

Getting ready for the last two days of classes! I couldn't be more excited! Spending the weekend at home studying for the three days of finals and then its summer!!! Can't wait! Big post coming up soon! x

birthdays are...

It's Olivia's birthday today!!! Since she's not a fan of presents, Amy and I performed a cute little song for her in chorus today (video possibly coming soon..?) and tucked inside a giant bag of candy was my first official cover just for her! I've started tons of songs before, but this was the first one I ever completed and let someone else hear. It was "Rolling In The Deep" by Adele, and I really hope she enjoys it! So here's to 5 beautiful years of friendship! Love youu, liv <3 xx

rolling in the deep

Sorry I've been so M.I.A. lately. I've been a terrible blogger I know, I know. While most of us would jump at the chance of nine whole work-free days and fill up every day with cutesy blog posts of their daily spring time apparel, I used my vacation week to really relax and re-coop from the crazy stressful mayhem I was living in for the last month or so. And it felt awesome. But now that I'm back in school, longing for that school bell to ring in June when I can go outside in my favorite summer dress and not have to get up at 6:30 the next morning to return. Siiigh. Let's just say: I can't freaking wait for summer. Anyways, I'm not sure how much time I'm going to have to set up the tripod and take outfit photos myself anytime soon, so for now we're just gonna have to rely on photo booth or the occasional impromptu photo shoot with the bffs. P.s. I had a lot of fun taking these photos. They're slightly ridiculous, fyi. 

Urban Skirt, Tank, and Socks, Nordstrom's Cardigan, Nine West Boots, H&M Necklace

I've always had such difficulty wearing this skirt because of it's off-white color. I didn't want the top to be too matchy matchy, but this crochet tank was perfect. The socks were the finishing touch. I've been looking for some over-the-knee socks to wear with dresses, and I found a wall of them at Urban. I bought multiples :) Also, although my nails look black (sorry bad photography), I tried the new Shatter Top Coat from O.P.I. and can I just say, it's the coolest thing ever. When people told me it cracks before their eyes, I was like yeah right... no way a polish can do that. I was so wrong. There's no words to really describe the magic of this polish. It's just so amazing. I highly recommend it. It rocks.
