Pastel Hitlist


                                   

By now you lovelies know how I'm about pastels. They are my MUSE---and honestly if it were up to me I would probably see in pastels, eat pastels, and even breathe in pastels if it were possible. Before I sound like some drug addict trying to hit up some pastels in the black market I'll leave my wee obsession for another conversation. So what do you exactly do with an obsession that you exactly can't talk about? You go to H&M that's what you do! While scouring H&M's website these pretty little numbers had my heart before I could say I do. Not that I'm marrying a pillow anytime soon or anything. But, come on people I can't say no to whimsical and dreamy---and if bunnies and dainty princess pillows don't scream whimsical and dreamy to you well then I've got a thing or two to teach you~

MAC Studio Fix Foundation | Cult Product Gone Wrong

Monday, August 10, 2015


Let me start off by saying I used to swear by this foundation. It was my day and night. It used to be absolute perfection in a bottle and give a flawless finish like it was nobodies business. My face and this foundation used to be a THING. . .but now we might as well be a really bad summer fling. 

Currently MAC Studio Fix and I are sworn enemies because it has wreaked havoc on my face. It was the nightmare of breakouts---I wish I was over exaggerating. For the past two months every morning I would wake up, look in the mirror, and CRY. Call me shallow, call me superficial, call me facile---I don't care! When you look in the mirror and feel absolutely awful---when you're not happy with what you see staring back at you---when you lose all your confidence---when you don't feel beautiful---when you start feeling like a STRANGER in your own body it begins to EFFECT your whole life. Not only physically, but mentally too and there is nothing superficial about that that!

In the beginning I didn't suspect my foundation at all. . .I mean why would I? I've been purchasing the same foundation devotedly for the past three years---it was like clock work when it came to me and MAC Studio Fix. So I thought what everyone else things when they go through a sudden breakout---it must be something in my diet. I relatively eat pretty healthy, but over the summer I let my sweet tooth go a little crazy. I basically began giving myself no slack. No fast food. No restaurants. Little to no sugar. Guess what happened it's gonna be a shocker---NOTHING. So I thought maybe it just wasn't a big enough change. More exercise? Nada---no change. New skin care products? That just made things way worst. Way worst.

But, then it dawned on me---what do I do nearly everyday? Put on foundation. What did I do two months ago? Buy a new bottle of my holy grail Studio Fix. I've been off the stuff for a good three weeks now and I've already seen massive improvements in my skin. Now in hindsight I remember how much worst my skin looked after I took off Studio Fix---my pores would be so clogged, my skin would look irritated, and worst yet there would be new break outs! It's been hard not wearing foundation especially when you so badly want to cover up---but what's a girl go to do. The health of my skin is more important!

Now don't get me wrong I still love MAC and their products (Hello, their lipsticks anyone?!)---but I feel like the formula for their foundations have changed. It used to deliver such a flawless and effortless finish---but now if I dare to even wear it I can tell I'm wearing foundation! Their already thick foundation is now difficult to blend when it used to just melt in my skin. Something is just not the same or who knows maybe it's just my skin. Either way I'm on the hunt for a new foundation. 

Got any recommendations for me? 

Dolce | My Signature Scent

Saturday, August 8, 2015


The fragrance for those who stumble upon love when picking out a bouquet of dreams.

This pretty little bottle here is an absolute dream and I simply had to share it with you, lovelies. Dolce is a very elegant and innocent scent---I've never encountered anything like it before. The elegant fragrance embraces your skin like a delicate floral bouquet---white water lilies and the white amaryllis flowers kiss your skin like secret admirers. The pure scent rings true with its earthy tones and leaves an irresistible trail of flower petals on your body. The rich notes envelope in a soft musk that is sensual, but unwarily sweet. 

You'd swear that I was reading this out of some fairy tale or that this post here was sponsored. . .but trust me Dolce & Gabbana don't need any of my help to promote their multi-millionaire brand. I've just fallen in love with this little perfume here---pinky swears! Dolce & Gabbana have put so much thought behind this little fragrance it has literally blew me away and lead me researching their brand for a good hour or so. What a way to spend an afternoon let me tell you. Their dedication to their work is awfully inspiring so I thought I would share with you their work as well. You can check it out here if you're interested~ 

Once again I swear this isn't sponsored---I'm just a crazy girl who's fallen in love with a perfume bottle. Hey, don't judge the girl before you smell the perfume, capish? Capish~

Cat Therapy

Thursday, August 6, 2015

Edit: me
Ever since my darling little kitty Pow Pow entered my life about 3 1/2 years ago my life has never been the same. With her constant kitty cuddles, her irresistible adorable paws that mischievously type away gibberish on my blog posts when I'm not looking (don't worry I edit out her little contributions---shhh don't tell her!), and our late night walks prowling around the lake---my life just wouldn't be complete without her. That purring machine is radiating happiness and sweet little kitty love 24/7. I swear being around her is like attending 1,000 therapy sessions except with cute meows for all the answers to your life perplexing questions. Why can't I be a millionaire? Meow. Why can't I eat chocolate for breakfast? Meow. Why can't my hair stop being a frizzy ugly monster? Meow. Boy, that really puts stuff in perspective doesn't it?

All joking aside though I swear cats make any crummy situation 1000 times better. Now I know not all of us have a little furball in our lives so I did you all a little favor---I brought the cats to you! Here are the top links that I could find across the whole internet land so all of us can participate in a little bit of cat therapy. So what are you waiting for?!

The Milkshake of All Milkshakes

Tuesday, August 4, 2015


This milkshake isn't for the faint hearted. Creamy vanilla ice cream blended with rich and chocolaty nutella, dark and delicious fudge, crunchy oreos, and last but not least layered upon layers with Reeses peanut butter cups. It's the dark side, darling and this drenched in chocolate drink has got your name on it. Drink it if you dare~

What You Need
Blender
Glass Cup/Jar

Ingredients
vanilla ice cream
nutella
oreos
fudge OR chocolate syrup
mini reeces peanut butter cups (mini size is only needed if you plan to decorate!)

Optional: 
whipped cream
milk (if you don't like a thick milkshake you can add some milk to make it the consistency you enjoy!)

Note: I did not mention ingredient amounts because there really is no right or wrong amounts! It really all depends on preference and the number of servings you plan to make~

Directions

1. Before you begin making your milkshake lets prepare our ingredients. Crush your oreos and recees peanut butter cups. Set them in a separate bowl for later.

2. Now comes the messy and fun part---with a knife take some nutella and begin coating the outer rim of your jar or cut. Once the rim is completely coated with nutella begin placing your crushed oreos and reeces peanut butter cups around the rim. This is definitely an optional step, but if you plan to serve this to guests this will sure to knock their socks off and earn you the title of hostess queen~
TIP: Place your cup/jar in the fridge so it can keep cool while you make the milkshake. This also locks everything in place!) 

3. In your blender place your icecream, nutella, fudge/chocolate syrup, oreos, and reeces peanut butter cups---close the lid and begin blending! Now if you're not a big fan of thick milkshakes add your milk while blending to get your preferred consistency. Add a little bit at a time---you don't want to water down your milkshake too much!

4. After you are happy with the thickness of your milkshake pour it into your jar/cup.

5. Optional: Top with a generous amount of fluffy whipped cream and reeces peanut butter cups!

6. Cheers&Enjoy~

I wish I had the original recipe to link you back to, but I give all the credit to food network for this chocolate baby wouldn't be born if it weren't for their secret snapchat recipes. This is so easy to throw together in the kitchen and you'll swear the chocolate heavens opened and this milkshake floated down from the silkiest of chocolate rivers. When I say easy---I mean super EASY! Don't let my long winded directions scare you off I just wanted to make sure I covered all the chocolate bases~

Are you ready to join the dark side?
We have chocolate. LOTS OF IT.

Dear Dreamer

Don't get discouraged if you don't see your light. Keep fishing for stars and don't drown your lost legs at midnight bars. Scatter your ideas across the skies like undiscovered galaxies. Let the moon brush its lips across your forehead, but don't linger on the planets for far too long for they are false homes, hopes, and mouths of empty forevers. Your true muse is what lies far above the planets---the heavens.   

If you get lost don't fret, dreamer. Let the moonlit tides make love to your star borne scars. Live with the fireflies and wash away their lies of can't make it and can't do it---can't, can't, can't. Learn the chant of the fierce yet gentle whispers of I can---I can, I can, I can. The darkness is merely a part of your journey. What many dreamers forget is the darkness is just before the light. You are so near---so close that you can touch the galaxies stars because guess what? The light is inside YOU.

With all my love&stars, 

A fellow Dreamer
