Rainbow Tag: Collab with Stephanie from The Best in Beauty

I'm back with a collab post, I've joined forced with Stephanie from The Best in Beauty. If you follow me on instagram you would know we've been preparing for the rainbow tag. I've been posting my picks for each color leading up to this blog post. 


Red
I love a red lip, the Revlon Matte Balm is amazing, if you want an affordable option go for this one. For a not so affordable option the Chanel Rouge Allure in #99 Pirate is great is an amazing blue red that looks great on all skin tones and it makes your teeth look white. For an option right in between the Stila stay all day liquid lipstick in the color Beso is a beautiful matte liquid lipstick that actually does last all day, I love this stuff. 

Orange
I'm not much for orange but I do have a new things in my collection. Both these shadows are mac and were limited collection the first was from the Hayley Williams collection and the other from the Surf Baby collection, the lipstick is a really pretty matte orange color also from the Hayley Williams collection called Sounds Like Noise. 

Yellow
Yellow was kind of a hard one for me to find things in my collection. I have the Phillip Lim for Target  bag and the Chanel polish in Mimosa, both were limited edition items.


Green
This Gosh quad, I received in my UK/US swap from my previous post, the colors are very pretty shimmery shades of green. Next is my Disney for Sephora collection for the Ariel. The Simple face wipes are by far my favorite ones, these I have small for eyes but the larger face ones are great too. What I love about them over other makeup remover wipes is that they don't sting my eyes. 

 Blue
First blue things I have is the Very Berry candle from Target, these candle are so nice and half the price of the Bath and Body Works ones. On the Bath and Body Works subject I am still loving this scent from the holiday line if you can get your hands on it you will LOVE it. Only one beauty product, the MUFE Sens'eyes makeup remover gets that waterproof liner and mascara off really nicely without irritating your eyes. Ladies, the man in your life needs to smell of Chanel, Bleu De Chanel is my favorite men's fragrance. If anyone is wondering the earrings are Givenchy and I got them form Macy's. 


Violet
I have two favorite plum color blushes, the first is Milani and the second is Plum Attraction from Chanel. Also from Chanel I have the Rouge Allure Velvet in #45 L'Adoree this color is from the Spring 2014 collection. I also have a YSL lipstick but the number as rubbed off.

Pink
The color of colors :) First is a fragrance I received for my birthday Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, this scent is so nice for spring. Again I have two blushes I love right now, Chanel blush in Emotion and the fancy pants new big boss blush in my collection, Tom Ford in Narcissist. I will have posts on both of these blushes coming up soon. For the lips I have MACs Candy yum yum and Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in #40 La Sensuelle. The Chanel gloss in #168 was my first Chanel purchase so I'll always love it.

Silver
I had to add a couple bonus colors. A few of my favorite silver pieces, the silver bunny is a ring holder that I found at Bed Bath and Beyond. Of course my MK watch and a few jewelry pieces. I have two silver eye products, and eyeliner form starlooks and a creme shadow my Rimmel.


Black
Another bonus color. Some of my favorite brands come in gorgeous black packaging. I'm a sucker for packaging. Chanel of course, MAC, Nars and Givency. 

Thank you for sticking with me through this super long post. Don't forget to head over to Stephanie's blog and cheek out her rainbow favorites.

Birthday Wishes and Caviar Dreams

bday


2013! 4 days into the new year I'm already thinking about my birthday. In only one month I'll be a quarter of a century old. I started thinking about what to ask for my birthday, to be honest I have no clue. I think it gets hard to ask for gifts when you get to the age that you have your own job, because depending on how you save your money, you can just buy things on your own. I will admit I don't really spoil myself when it comes to big ticket items, but when it comes to small things I don't mind spending the money.  I came up with a wish list, somethings are realistic and others I will only see in my dreams at night.
It was kind of hard to think of things I want, I couldn't remember ever saying "oh i really want that" about that many things. Now I get why my boyfriend always says he never knows what to get me because I never ask for anything. It was fun.
For anyone wondering what my new years resolution was... blog more! I really want to post more this year, hopefully my post won't be months apart in 2013.

1. Apple Smart Case (Dark Gray) - $49
2. Air Jordan XI Retro "Space Jam" - These came out in 2009 and can only be purchased from resellers. Hopefully NIKE will re release these so I can buy them at retail value. - $ too damn much for sneakers.
3. Tory Burch Logo Stud Earrings - $58
4. Tory Burch Riva Flats (7) - $185
5. Headphones - not specifically the Beats by Dre brand, just a nice pair of in ear headphone.
6. New Blu- Ray movies for my collection - Hunger Games, Tangled, Cinderella II/III set, Princess and the Frog, Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo, anything to expand my Disney Princess/ Disney-Pixar Collection 
7. Michael Kors Runway Twist watch - $195 a lot of places don't have this in stock anymore, but mostly I just want a silver watch.
8. Chanel Grand Shopper Tote - around $3000... the bag of my dreams, I'd love to one day in my life have this bag, along with the classic large flap 2.55 bag which is around $5000. ... a girl can dream.
9. Nikon D3100 Kit - $480  what I actually might ask for as my birthday gift this year, or at least a contribution to the fund. I've wanted a DSLR for years.
10. Beauty by Lauren Conrad - $16 this book came out in October and i wanted it then but no matter how many book stores I've passed I've just never gone in to get it.
11. Louis Vuitton Speedy 30 and Neverfull MM - $790 and $850   2 more dream bags, Damier Ebene Canvas a must.
