Beauty & Fashion Favorites of the Week

Happy Friday dah-ling!! You guessed it, this week was another toughie in the life of this beauty blogger! I'm so grateful for every opportunity that has come my way and I'm really looking forward to sharing everything that I've been working on. I'm also thrilled that the weekend is here and I get to wind down a bit before I head to Vegas for the Stardust Tour. 

Today's post is a quick recap of my three weekly favorites: outfit, makeup and hair, centering around the oxblood color theme. I'm also including a sneak peek of one of the projects I worked on this week. Let me know what you think in the comments section!

Mattes 2015: Matte Nails, Matte Makeup

Hello my beauties!! It's my first Mani-Monday of 2015, but I've got lots more lined up for today's post. This season is all about the matte finish, we're seeing lots of matte makeup and nails, velvety-soft skin finishes and smokey eyes, and virtually every brand is coming out with those coveted matte lipsticks that everyone craves. Today, I'm overdosing on the matte trend and wearing it from head to toe (or fingertip) and I've even got a quick matte lip video tutorial for you all. Let me know what you think in the comments section below.

Festive Makeup: Graphic Eyes, Bold Lips

Happy New Year my beauties and cuties!! Hope 2015 brings you everything you've ever wished for and then some. Thank you for sticking by me and showing me all your love and support, you guys are amazing and I'm forever grateful. 

Today on the blog: my New Year's makeup recap. Unfortunately, I caught a bad cold right before the new year, so my celebration consisted of staying in and cozying it up with the fam. Of course, being sick doesn't mean that I have to look sick and give up on life. With that in mind, I put together a fun, celebratory makeup look in hopes to cheer myself up... and guess what? It worked! Here it is and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did :))
