Obsessed: Youtube Beauty Gurus

The last few months I have been watching so many beauty youtube gurus. I am obsessed! I have been watching youtube channels more than actual TV. These ladies are so entertaining with their haul videos, favorites and beauty tips. I have discovered s many new products I need to have!  Not to mention it is amazing how some have made youtubing a  full time career for themselves. I have been inspired by these women to start my own youtube channel. Please check out my channel, it's only in the beginning stages, but I hope to vlog and create videos more often. I feel like youtube videos can show my readers a more personal side of myself.

All About That Lace

Lace Dresses have been all the rage this year. I love wearing lace because it is such a classic feminine look. I actually bought this dress at the end of last year and barely got to wear.  With the fall weather in full force I decided to wear this to the office.  I love when black and cream is paired together. It always equates a glam look and red lips just seem necessary.


Dress: Dynamite
Cardigan: Rampage
Pumps: Charlotte Russe

Halloween: Kitty Cat Style

I used to have such a love for the Halloween but the last few years, I have just been so busy, I haven't had the time to plan and create costumes that I wanted to. This year I decided to be a black cat. I know it is a cliche costume, but I had some key pieces I wanted to use. I recently bought this black romper during Shop Hope's major clearance, I thought it might be a little too much for a regular night out so I adapted it into a Halloween costume. I was inspired by some make-up looks from youtube, however on my way to my friend's my makeup got some water damage. My usual photographer (my mom) wasn't able to take my outfit photos, so I apologize for the lack of pictures..


Romper: Shop Hopes
Belt: D;Agaci
Tights:Pretty Polly


What were you for Halloween?

Purple Aztec

Aztec is a pattern that has been very popular the last few years.  I own a few pieces myself, and they are always fun to style. You can't go on a clothing website nowadays without seeing one Aztec
piece. I wore this outfit for a day at the office. I love this skirt, and purple is not a color I often wear so today's outfit was especially fun.

Purple Cardigan:Neslay Paris
Skirt:Le Chateau
Necklace: Gifted

October Ipsy Bag


Recently I have been toying with the idea of cancelling my Ipsy subscription. It's always exciting when I get the email my glam room has been posted, but generally it ends in disappointment. I previously addressed this in my last youtube video. Nevertheless, I forgot to cancel and ended up with another subscription bag for the month of October. I wasn't actually disappointed with this month's goodies.


This month my bag consisted of

 Starlooks Lipgloss: I really like Starlooks' products so I was happy to get this. This is the perfect pink for a neutral pink lip. I previously received the Starlooks lip liner so this was the perfect match. The lip gloss has a nice shine and lasts for awhile. I like the gloss, but would I order it online? Probably not.

Skyn Iceland Makeup Wipes: These wipes were full of product which was nice, sometimes I find that make-up wipes for some reason, don't have any product on them. I'm very happy that these make-up wipes did not break out my face.  They were a filler product for me and I would never look into buying them.

Jesse's Girl Mineralized Baked Eye Shadow: At first, I was a bit apprehensive about this eye shadow. It looked pretty enough, but when would I ever wear green eye shadow.I blended this with an existing eye shadow I had and it looked so pretty. It's not overly pigmented but it was the perfect amount of color for work. I actually would look into buying more of these baked eyeshadows. They are $3.99, so they are a great deal and will last a long time.

Figs and Rouge Hand Cream-Mango Mandrin: This was my first time trying this UK brand, and I was not disappointed. This hand cream will be great for the winter, I get extremely dry skin, so this is perfect to throw in my purse. This has a tint of smell but is nothing overpowering or anything I could in trouble using at work which is a big thumbs up. This hand cream does not leave a greasy feeling on your hands too. I would maybe look at buying this product when it is used up.

ECRU New York BB Cream for Hair:  When I first saw BB my initial thoughts were "yay a new BB cream to try out". Just as I was about to spread the cream on my face I realized that it was for my hair.  I didn't even know that BB Cream existed for hair, but I guess it is one of those marketing ploys. I do like this product so fair, I can't really explain if it has had any benefits for my hair due to the amount of time i've been using it. I have to admit that I will never buy this product again, because i'm not really sure what it does.

Overall, this bag had 2 items I would buy for sure and the rest were things I would use. I will continue subscribing, because I love seeing that pink metallic envelope.

Fall Dreamin'

This fall has been a dream.  I have had endless amounts of Candy Corn and Pumpkin Spice drinks have been overflowing from my cup. I've had this dress for awhile, but I have never managed to take an outfit picture in it, so today was the lucky day. I wore this outfit for a long day at work. I love kneesocks, because I am not the biggest fan of tights. This is the perfect  time for kneesocks.



Dress: Le Chateau
Hat: Le Chateau
Pumps: Charlotte Russe
Necklace: c/o Wild Violet

Halloween with Elle Styles

Halloween is just around the corner and I cannot wait. I wanted to share an awesome website for costume shopping especially for Canadians. ElleStyles is one of my newest sponsors and a great online store to purchase some unique costumes. The days are creeping closer and there's no doubt that if you haven't found a Halloween costume yet, you are starting to panic. Where I live, we do not have any Halloween Costumes, so online is one of the only options.  ElleStyles has lots of costumes I am currently debating over.








The most exciting thing is ElleStyles has a discount code for 20% off any costume over $100. Use the code 20%off100

So my question is what are you being for Halloween?
