Handbag Heaven

Good Evening,

So I recently made a purchase for myself for valentines day and it sparked my hunger for handbags all over again. I have for as long as I can remember have been OBSESSED with handbags and I need.... need... need.....

I use to love a variety of handbags and never really invested in anything expensive and just wanted all that I could have. But as I have gotten older I want to have some staple handbags and more classic bags! I want to have a collection. I watch all these videos of woman and their handbag collections and I think thats where I want to be.

So I am making a list of the bags that I want. .....

PS. before I go to my WISH LIST.... I want to share that on July 4, 2013 had my LV Never Full bag stolen from a friends car :(

Everything was gone and I had saved for that bag for a long time and was very hurt and upset that its gone.  I made myself move on and let it go!!!! I will have the bag again and its ok. Karma is  Bitch~!!!!

On to my Handbag Heaven.....

This is my V-day purchase recently.... I also got this on sale for $230 

Dream Bags.......
SMALL ANTIGONA SHINY SMOOTH LEATHER BAG



LV Never Full Damier

LV Speedy 30 

Modalu Pippa handbag 

Philip Lim 3.0 

Balenciaga

These bags are super expensive and super not on my budget.... this will take some discipline and a special occasion to purchase for myself.  I definitely want to have my LV Never Full again but I don't know if the Philip Lim is in competition for the next purchase.... Its also a bit less and affordable than the LV. The Lim bag is also a pretty simple and structured handbag and will be a classic bag.  These are all bags that I think I could use for years to come and would enjoy and love! Its definitely a start of a collection and I really want to work my way up to the big daddy handbags such as Chanel, Chloe, Celine, Hermes.

I really don't think that these bags are affordable but I think that its worth it to treat myself and obtain for a major accomplishment.  I know that for my bday every year I will make a purchase to add to my collection for myself.  :) I will also get a handbag for my masters degree - so I know that I have some time to go with the purchase of the handbags but I think that it will be worth it. And its something that I can and will pass down to my daughter or niece.

Plus spoiling yourself is never a bad thing!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a good evening ya'll

Master in Higher Education Administration..... #stressed


Hello....

 I spent my Sunday being very productive at Starbucks... besides the small amount of time I spent people watching, I actually got a lot of work done while I was there.  I am graduating in the fall and I am beginning to feel the super stress of it all. Work is getting super busy and I am definitely feeling more pressure from all angels.  But I do see the light at the end  of the tunnel.  I feel it super important to keep it going... I have managed to keep a 3.9 GPA throughout the whole two years and only getting on B+ ... which I was not exactly happy about!!! But that's life and you have to be able to roll with the punches and do better next time.

Even though I was studying I wanted to still feel pretty and fresh... So I spiced it up with a bit of make up to keep me awake and ready to go.  On my face I used the following products:  
Foundation - Make up Forever Matt foundation 
Brows: NYX Brow palette
Eye shadow: Urban Decay Naked Neutral Palette 
EOS Lip Balm 
Brow Eyeliner 

I think its super important to always look your best because that helps you to feel amazing when you are doing something you don't always want to be doing. 

Till next time.... Smooches

I'm Back

Hello Everyone....

I know I have been gone for such a long time and I have not added anything new but life has gotten a bit busier for me.  I have started school again and I am getting my Masters Degree in Education Administration Leadership Policy Studies! I know that is long title - but the short version is Educational Administration.

Hoping that this is the key to get me into a higher level position with in my university or move on to other bigger and better things! You never know where you will end up and I feel it is super important to make sure you're on top of your game and making the right decisions to enhance your career and life ultimately.

The program is a two year program and I basically completed a year and have a year to go... I am very much excited to finish up and move on and graduate.  Life is good can't really complain too much..

Other than work and school, I am planning a trip to Australia for this December and excited for that!!!! I hope I can make it happen and go explore Sydney and Melbourne :) .  I have tons of family there so I look forward to seeing them all.

I will be trying to update this with interesting things that are going on and happening and not neglect it so much......

Stay tuned....

Smooches

Shady guys.....

Good evening....

So I am a little bit in the annoyed side. I thought I would just do a quick vent. I never expected that a guy in his 30's would act like a child and stand up a female. I thought that they've had enough sense to at least call. I mean that's stuff that kids do!!!!! I am in shock but then again why am I??? Guys are guys at any age and they truly never grow up. It's sad and pathetic but I guess sometimes we expect more when we clearly shouldn't.

I guess the search for mister right still continues....! I wonder what other females go through? Same stuff? Same drama? Same stupidity? It seems so lame and backwards. Ugh!!!! Oh well. Hope y'all are having an amazing Sunday evening. <3 !!!!

Working out and staying fit.......

Hello Loves...

It's been a while since I have blogged.... I do miss it and keep adding things to my list of things to write about. Trying to keep it entertaining ;)

Well lately all of my focus has been on working out and getting back in y shape and mostly eating healthy!!!! Which I am sure most of you find hard to do as well. It's a serious lifestyle change and doesn't just happen overnight. I mean it can, but it can happen. I mean it's all about dedication and determination on what you want for yourself. What goals you're setting and how soon you want to reach them!

For me I like to see results ASAP! So I am challenging myself to stay on this path and continue to push myself and go harder at the gym and make myself push when I want to give up and stop. When it starts to hurt its when then that you have to keep going and that's the way you see results. I am excited to see the changes. I am currently losing my water weight but it's a great feeling to notice a tiny change in my body and more importantly how I feel.

I think it's super important to ask questions and use the people around you and be resourceful. I google things all the time, and ask friends advice about what movement is best for this part of my body. You get great input and add to your routine. I also find that finding things that motivate you is helpful. I use pininterest.com a lot to look up motivational pictures and quotes... I will post some of my favorite ones below and a picture of my goal body.

I want to see what my body will look like in 90 days and have started this challenge. I have taken a before picture and will post soon (I think lol) don't want to scare you all off!!!! But hope you all got some kind of motivation from here and I will be posting any tips and workouts that I think will be helpful.

Lush haul & Reviews....

Hello my loves....

I recently went to Lush.... Finally and got a whole bunch of goodies! I have never used their products before and so I decided to give it a shot! I got a couple things and I am very much impressed for the most part!  I am actually going back on Saturday for their grand opening and going to get a couple more things....   So hope you are enjoying your Lush products and if you have looked into these products, here is a quick and easy review.....

CUPCAKE FRESH FACE MASK

So I have only used this once, but I do have to say that when I opened it up, it smelled fresh and I loved that it was chilled because you have to keep it in the fridge~! So it goes on kind of ugly and you don't look nice while you have it one but once I washed my face and dried it - I felt so fresh! My face is very much acne prone and so I think this was the best mask for me as far as what they had to offer.  It has only been one use but I think it will make a difference if used properly. It has an expiration date of 1-29-2012 so you know the ingredients are fresh! and all natural.  It was only 7 dollars so not that big of an investment but I so far love using it and am hopeful that it will work.  I am on a full force save my face mission!! lets see how it goes....

For a list of ingredients for each of these products go to the website.


GREASE LIGHTNING

So I wanted a spot treatment for acne breakouts... and I figured that since I am going or trying to go all natural I would give this a shot.  It is in a form of a gel and you really only need a tiny, tiny pump and you just rub it on the problem areas and let it dry.  The first time I used it the amount I applied was too much and it made my face feel really dry and crunchy- but that's because I applied too much.  You really only need to dab a small amount and the rub it in. I have used this for 2 or 3 days now. I apply at night before bed after I have washed my face and in the morning I apply my makeup and after I of course washed my face.  It has dried out a couple of my pimples but of course I think I will see dramatic results after a couple more uses but I am pleased with the product over all.

STIMULATING AND REVIVING MINT BAR 

Okayy...... well this is the product that I am the most excited about this product! I have a huge problem with thinning hair, and while I was there of course I inquired about hair treatments and shampoo's.  I have used I think all of the products there is for thinning hair and at home remedies. So I decided lets try this! So far.... eh! I got one for my mom as well and she swears she loves it! She says that it has stopped her hair from falling as much and she loves the feel of her hair.  She has been using it daily and I use it every other day as I don't want to wash my hair daily.  I noticed the first wash that my hair was really dry on the tips and the texture was weird.  BUT I also needed a hair cut badly and finally got one! So it could have been my hair and the need for a trim.  So after my trim I used it again and I think its ok! I want to use fully and see what happens with my hair.  The girl that sold it to me said her mom has been using it for 4 weeks and she notices new hair growing back. So I am interested in seeing the results on me.  I shall do a mid month update on the Lush products.

Hope these tiny reviews help you decide on what to get and not get and try.... I know its all very new to me so I will def do an updated review on how I am doing with all the products.  I also will do a Lush Haul post after I go on saturday.  Have an amazing day lovies!!!!!
