I'm going to PUNTA CANA!

I am so excited to share this with you guys! We chose to go to PUNTA CANA for our Honeymoon! I have never traveled outside of the USA, I've never even been on an airplane!

Yesterday, we went to a travel agent & we knew we  wanted to go to Punta Cana, I've heard amazing things about it & looked at pictures that were just gorgeous. So we booked our trip from October 21-29. We catch our first flight at 5:49 AM (which is going to suck, we have to leave at 3:30 in the morning!) & we have a layover in Charlotte, NC then we're off to Punta Cana!

We're staying at the Iberostar Grand Hotel Bavaro, which is all inclusive & adult only.

These are actual pictures of the resort.

It has a lazy pool the whole way around the resort with 5 swim up bars.

 We are going to pay extra to go snorkeling! And the beach is within walking distance.

 This is the actual hotel. It's rated 5 stars & even though it's expensive, we're going to have an amazing time!

I cannot believe in 51 days I will be married! I'm so excited (and nervous!). We've been together 6 years so it's about time! :)

Have a great day!

Frosted Flakes & Tropical

Here's my makeup for today:

FACE:

Garnier BB Cream

Bare Minerals in Medium & Medium Beige

NYX Concealer in a Jar in Beige 

ELF Contouring Blush & Bronzer

EYEBROWS:

ELF Eyebrow Kit in Medium

Milani Eyebrow Kit in Light

 EYES:

Maybelline Turbo Blast Mascara in Blackest Black

Maybelline Lash Stilleto Eyeliner in Blackest Black

NYX Eyeliner Pencil in Black (inner rim, upper eyelid)

NYX Eyeliner Pencil in Pearl White (lower lash line)

Two Faced Shadow Insurance

NYX Single Eyeshadow in Frosted Flakes (entire eyelid)

NYX Single Eyeshadow in Tropical (crease)

NYX Single Eyeshadow in Antique Gold (crease & corner)

 LIPS:

NYX Lip liner Pencil in Rose

NYX Round Lipstick in Tea Rose

NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Nude Pink

 This was great for a natural look. I've had Tropical for awhile but I never used it because it looks super BRIGHT in the pan. In reality, it's really pretty. I love NYX shadows because you can gradually build the color.  Frosted Flakes is really awesome too. It's a shimmery white, almost silver but it's very soft. And I love Antique Gold. I didn't think it was going to go with these colors but it worked great.

I'm really not sure what's going on with my frizzy hair! I let it air dry & it is a poof ball! I tried to straighten it but it was humid here & it was all wavy around my face! Awful!

Here's today's outfit! I forgot I bought this shirt, I actually didn't think I bought it, I passed it up 2 times at Forever 21 but I guess I got it the last time I was there. It still had the tag but was buried in my closet! The back is crotchet & the main reason I bought it. I paired it with some gray jeans which were so tight last month I couldn't zip them! Since I wore heels yesterday, I gave my feet a break & wore flip flops.

Have a great night!

It feels like Fall in PA today! It's been unbearably hot this summer & it was gorgeous out today!

 This was really easy & I loved the way it looked. 

I bought these wedges off of UrbanOg for $26.80 & I adore them. I bought them for my engagement pictures & I wear them fairly often. I won't lie, after a few hours they do kill my feet.

 Here was today's outfit. I obviously did NOT do my hair yet! I can tell I've lost weight, I'm down about 13 pounds. I eat clean 6 days a week & workout 5-6 days. I feel great & I give myself one day a week to eat whatever I want, I've been losing about 1-2 pounds each week. It's easier as time goes on but I do look forward to the day I can eat what I want. (Like yesterday when I FINALLY had the hot wings I've been craving all week!)

Let me know what you think!

Bang Bang

It felt like a good day to play with eye shadow!

I ordered a ton of samples from Glamour Doll Eyes & they were looking pretty lonely sitting in my vanity drawer today so I put together a look using the colors pictured below. They are from Left to Right: He Loves Me Not, Show Off, Disco White, Dino Spotz, Graves in May, Chocoholic, Pistol Pistol & Island Chic. You can see swatches here & here.

(Sorry my hair looks gross, I have a video shoot Tuesday so I don't want to curl it or flat iron it yet!)

I have been filling my eyebrows in heavier lately, I guess I'm trying something new & thick brows are in! I will be doing a post on my brows this week. I'm almost afraid to show how terrible my eyebrows truly are!

Here's the products I used:

 I think I'll be ordering from Glamour Doll Eyes again soon, they have amazing colors & the samples are SO cheap! You can check out their site here!

BUTTERS!

Hi!

How have you all been?

I've been crazy busy with wedding things! A little more than 2 months to go, I am officially starting get nervous!

I thought I'd share some good news, me & Dustin adopted a new baby this week! This is Butterscotch or Butters, as we call him! Sorry for the crappy pictures they are from my cell phone (which is a flip phone!) and they are pretty terrible! But this is my new little BOY! Dustin is no longer with all girls. (I have 3 girl cats!) He's just a tiny boy at 8 weeks old & weighing 2 lbs. But this little dude has energy for days!

 His sisters are not happy cats right now but they will all adjust in a few days. The past days have been filled with a lot of hissing & growling but it's gotten better. Here he is with Tigs, she really doesn't mind him until he gets too close!

I haven't been updating because my point & shoot camera completely took a crap on me, so I caved & bought a new one from HSN. Since I have a Canon DSLR that I adore, I picked out a Canon Powershot A4000 in black. I really haven't had a chance to play with it yet but I will be able to post new pictures FINALLY! I didn't want you guys to think I forgot about you!

Engagement Pictures

I know I have been MIA, I have so much going on & the wedding is a mere 72 days away! I just wanted to update you guys on what has been going on in my life. I have been spending much more time with my family  since my uncle's death, which is a great thing. I have also been working out & eating very healthy trying to get toned & in tip top shape for the wedding!

I wanted to share a few shots from our engagement pictures! Our photographers are a little pricey but it is money well spent.

Hope you like them!
