Go-To Tuesday

This past weekend was a time to celebrate and today is a day to share with you another go-to. I’m sharing with you my Go-to Champagne which is the Barefoot Bubbly Moscato Spumante Champagne. This bubbly spirit is so delicious and easy to celebrate with. It retails around $15 and I highly suggest it to anyone looking for a sweet champagne. If you’re a fan of Moscato wine and champagne (and you’re 21+) then this is the drink for you. A lot of champagne have a bitter and tart taste to them but not this one. This bubbly drink has a light, airy, sweet taste while still giving your champagne feels. I’ve always said that this bubbly drink tastes the way I’ve always wanted champagne to taste and I love it!

Hello friends,

I’m so excited because today is an extra special day for me, it’s my birthday! For the occasion, I decided to share 27 (cause I’m 27 today, get it 😋) facts about me. I don’t feel like I’ve ever properly introduced myself to you all so here’s a little snippet of who I am. I’m dying to know what we all have in common, make sure you share with me in the comments, on my insta, or Facebook post! 😁 Here we go:

1. I have watched all seasons of Golden Girls, Friends, and The Office and equally obsessed with all three. I still watch them all the time.

2. I grew up dancing and now I choreograph and teach dance.

3. I’m obsessed with anything Holographic and/or Iridescent, go figure right? 😉

4. I studied Theatre in college and my focus was musical theatre. My favorite musical I’ve performed in was ‘Hairspray’ where I played the title role of Tracy Turnblad. That was also my first time I ever lead the show for a professional regional production.

5. At a young age, I started to participate in pageants. I won many titles throughout the years but I gave it up when I turned 13. I decided that I wanted to try out for cheer and audition for my school’s musical and realized I couldn’t do it all.

6. I’m the luckiest gal who has the MOST amazing best friends EVER! These girls were all my high school besties and no matter what, we all have each other’s back.

7. I’m allergic to Dogs! 😭 it’s literally the worst thing that I’ve ever grown into. When I turned 25, my body started to hate me and not let me pet & love them without having a sneeze attack. Now I carry around Benadryl everywhere I go because I will NOT let my allergies ruin my love for dogs.

8. I’ve performed in 20 musicals (some repeats) and 4 plays.

9. My favorite Disney Princess is Belle from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast.

10. I HATE spiders. I understand they eat a lot of bad bugs and thats great. I’d just prefer them to be invisible and stay the hell away from me.

11. I have the most AMAZING boyfriend. He’s truly incredible. I feel like I’m in a dream because he just seems too good to be true most of the time.🙈

12. He also has the two cutest kitties that he lets me cuddle with. They are the first cats I’ve ever been around a lot and I love the little buggers.

13. I actually auditioned for American Idol at 17 yrs old and made it through 3 rounds before getting cut at the producer audition.

14. My most recent guilty pleasure has been 90 Day Fiancé and Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

15. My favorite cake flavor is Confetti/Funfetti and the icing MUST be buttercream. No exceptions! Haha

16. I have to have the tv on and tuck the sheets and comforter under my feet to be able to fall asleep.

17. I’m obsessed with McDonald’s Large Diet Coke. It’s been my favorite thing ever since McDonald’s started the $1 soft drinks! 🙌🏼

18. I’m right handed.

19. I’m obsessed with going to Disney World! Most of the time, our family vacations consist of going to the happiest place on earth! ✨

20. I have a weird obsession with Walgreens. For some reason, I think it’s the coolest place. 😂

21. My favorite color is Magenta! 💕

22. In high school, I was obsessed with the Jonas Brothers. Since they’ve made their comeback, I’ve rekindled my love for them all over again.

23. My favorite holiday is Christmas. I’m one of those people you love to hate that listens to Christmas music wayyyyyy too early. BUT I’m respectful and usually only listen to it by myself. 🎄✨

24. I love the scent of coconut and lemon.

25. I’m the middle child in my family. I have an older sister and a younger brother.

26. I’m absolutely love and adore Ariana Grande’s music. My favorite album or her’s is Dangerous Woman and can’t get enough of all her music.

27. I can quote the whole Mean Girls movie. YOU CAN’T SIT WITH US! 😉

And those are my 27 facts about me. I’d love to hear a fun fact about you all. Share in the comments below!

GO-TO TUESDAY

This week’s is dedicated to my go-to supermarket which is….. Target! That’s right, my favorite place to shop for every day things is the ever popular Target. Now I know what you’re thinking, Target is expensive when it comes to groceries and food and you have a point. BUT, I like the fact that Target is multiple stores in one. For me, they have an amazing Women’s Clothing department, Makeup aisle, and amazing housing decor. A lot of times if I go to other supermarkets, I have to travel to other stores to still get everything I need. That’s not the case with Target though. One trip to target and I can purchase all that I needed. Therefore, the extra bit of money spent on some products, saves you time and money to drive to other stores if you would have went to Walmart or another store. When it comes to shopping online with them, it’s almost as good as shopping Prime. To compete with Amazon, Target offers two day free shipping for Red Card holders. If you are not a Red Card holder, you can still receive free standard shipping on orders $35 or more. Kind of the same concept of Prime, which is nice because I love shopping on both sites. One of my favorite brands that is available at Target is their Junior’s line, Wild Fable. Basically, it’s a Forever 21 exclusive to Target stores. Trendy and affordable pieces that are good quality products. Not only do they offers normal sizes (S,M, L) but they also have XS, XL, XXL, and plus sizes up to 3X. I enjoy being able to peruse through their clothing and picking up a few pieces from their sale racks, too. You can usually find pieces under $10 in the clearance areas. I highly suggest anyone to take a look on those racks anytime you visit your local target because there are usually some great deals hidden in there. I find some of my best and favorite pieces on the sale racks at Target and usually under $15. In my opinion, you can’t beat those deals. What do you think? Are you a fan of Target’s clothing? Are you an avid clearance rack shopper at Target? Let me know in the comments below. Click the photo above to get a link to my outfit details and some of my other favorite products from Target.

Go-To Tuesday

Well, National Lipstick Day is less than a week away, so what better time to share my go-to red lipstick with you all! This lipstick is my little secret gem that I’m so ready to spill the beans about. The lipstick is Maybelline’s Super Stay Matte Ink in the shade Ruler (Click the photo above for the link to the product). What is so amazing about this lipstick? Let me tell you! First off, I’m a big fan of matte lipsticks and this is a tacky matte lip that doesn’t dry them out. Second, the formula stays on FOREVER! I barely have to reapply when using this matte ink and I’m LIVING for it. Third, I’ve owned this lipstick for over a year and haven’t had to get a replacement yet. Since you barely have to reapply, the product lasts a long time. Now, I’m not wearing it every day but I wear it about once a week, sometimes more depending on my schedule. Also, the color of Ruler is this beautiful blue/red shade that compliments my skin tone and hair so well. Orange/red toned lipsticks do NOT look good on me and I’m sure a lot of you with darker hair feel like you can’t pull on red like I used to. BUT you can, you just need a blue/red, which this lipstick shade is. Lastly, this lipstick is under $10 and a true beauty steal. Try it out and let me know what you think!

Well hello,

Anybody else been shopping up a storm this past week? I know I’ve had my eye on a few products and I wanted to share with you what I picked up on this week of recent sales! Follow along with my quick round up of products I’ve been dying to get my hands on and my first impressions of them. Let’s get started:

New Makeup:

Yes to Cucumbers Cooling Hydrating Primer Stick – $9.99

With it being summer, I thought this Primer would be an amazing try for those hot sweaty days. My first impression of this was an immediate smell of cucumbers, it was quite refreshing and made me want to lather it all over. Alas, I just lathered it onto my face like the instructions suggested. I could instantly feel the cooling sensation and enjoyed the feeling of it on my skin. If you’re looking for a Hydrating Primer that is under $15, this is a great one for you to try.

Juvia’s Place I Am Magic Foundation – $20

(I purchased the shade Cairo-600)

I can’t lie, after I watched the YouTube episode of Jeffree Star approving this Juvia’s Place foundation, I definitely needed to try this. The price point definitely sold the item considering it’s only $20 and in Jeffree’s words “for the price point, the formula is impeccable.” I will say (as did Jeffree), this foundation is in need of a pore filling primer before applied but other than that, this foundation is the real deal. I highly suggest you all to give it a try.

Juvia’a Place I Am Magic Concealer – $14

(I purchased the shade J20)

Last but not least, we have to talk about the I Am Magic Concealer. This stuff in amazing! I’m currently using Tarte’s Creaseless Concealer and let me tell you, it doesn’t compare to this! For a $15 Concealer, run and get this product! It’s truly the best concealer I’ve ever bought. If you’re on the fence for any of these products, this would be one to jump for!

That’s all for now friends, I hope you enjoyed this little haul/review, please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have. I’m still using these products every day so I’ll have more information on them as the days go by.

Go-To Tuesday

Did you miss me? Well, no worries because I’m back with this week’s go-to Tuesday! Today I’m sharing with you all my go-to piece of jewelry. Above, I have the Pandora Infinite Shine Ring (Ring size 8). This is my best friend’s group’s designated friendship ring. It’s a Ring I barely take off and I love for a few reasons. First, this ring fits perfectly on my ring finger. Second, it’s a very comfortable ring. I’m not the type of person to wear a ring 24/7 or jewelry for that matter. This ring is extremely comfortable though and barely feels like anything if sized correctly. Lastly, the infinity sign feature is so cute and I love how the meaning behind it. This is a great gift for a best friend, mother, grandmother, significant other, and more. Click the link to purchase the same ring here.
