Ulta Haul!!

So this evening I paid a much needed visit to Ulta!
Recently I purchased some stuff online from Ulta and received a travel size lotion that smelt amazing, so one reason I wanted to go there was to get more lotion. The scent I got was Freshwater Mist and they also had it in a fragrance!


(I edited my photos in iPhoto, which made the lighting way better thankfully! But in some pictures my sheets look way way way brighter so please excuse that)



Ulta was having a buy 2 get 2 free sale on all of their products. Both the lotion and perfume were $9.50 a piece but I only had to pay for two yay!


I bought a four piece set of Burt's Bees lip balm for $7.99 which also came with a coin purse. This was such a great deal because one chapstick is almost $4! This was also on sale, originally it was $9.99


Nail polish, my favorite! OPI is one of my favorite nail polish brands and always love the colors in Mariah Carey's collection. Sorry you can't see the colors well in this picture.

FROM L TO R
The first color is My Favorite Ornament, which I believe is a liquid sand. It is a nice gold glitter with some small silver glitters in there!
The second color is Visions Of Love which is a plum color. 
The last polish is I Snow You Love Me, which is a circular holographic glitter.
Originally this set costs $20 but I got it on sale for $10!
This deal is so amazing because not only was it $10 less but a full size bottle of OPI nail polish is $9. These are all full size and I only paid about $3.33 per bottle.


I got these nail clippers for 99¢, it was originally $2.99. My mom needed one badly so I grabbed this for her and the quality seems great!

Everything came to $37 and some change but I had a $5 off coupon so I only had to pay $32 plus tax!
In total I saved $42.93!!!

Cute Plus Size Clothes

Everyone should be able to dress cute but it sucks that a lot of stores only carry up to a size large! But have no fear you can still find some really cute plus size clothing! And with the holidays being here you gotta dress extra cute~

American Apparel Review

Hello, recently I made some purchases from American Apparel's website. They have very nice clothes, I've ordered from them before. I purchased two pairs of easy jeans and got my order in the mail today. 
Honestly, the quality sucked. These jeans are $78, totally not worth it! Even though I paid $54 for them because I had a coupon code, it still wasn't worth it. I usually buy my jeans from Old Navy, which are usually under $40, they have better quality! For starters the easy jeans seemed more like leggings than jeans but they don't stretch that much. 
I bought a pair in black and dark washed indigo. I was very excited about my jeans but when I went to try the jeans on, the button was all messed up. It was falling out and the part where it snaps in is missing! And for the black pair, I was sent a dress. That pissed me off. I am very disappointed. 
If you're going to run a store, make sure to get peoples orders correct. 
I'm not sure if I'll be making a purchase from there again.

Ulta Haul!

I recently ordered some stuff from Ulta and it came to today so here is my haul!
(Sorry for the low quality pictures, my apartment doesn't have that good of lighting and it was dark outside when I took this)



Free samples!
I received a Stila sample which included their Stay All Day beauty balm, Stay All Day foundation and Stay All Day Concealer!
I also got an Ouidad Heat & Humidity Gel shampoo sample and a bottle of Ulta's moisturizing lotion that smells great, it also isn't tested on animals. In the past I have gotten shampoo samples from Ulta and loved them so hopefully I'll love this one as well! 


I bought some Nyx loose eyeshadow in Nude and Pearl, I'm gonna use these for the corners of my eyes! I've been wanting to try gel eyeliner since I've had no luck with liquid eyeliner so I bought Essence's gel eyeliner in 'Midnight In Paris', it's just a simple black and an eyeliner brush by them as well.


Ulta had a deal going on where you spend at least $40 you get a bag filled with their products with $40 for free! Inside the makeup bag was Ulta's Amped Lashes mascara, 'The Perfect Nude' lipstick, a foaming face wash cream, lip gloss in 'Flirtini', a coral blush in 'Flush' and nail polish. The lip gloss is more so clear than pink. Last but not least, a contour blush, sponge tip brush and an angle eyeshadow blush. 


My favorite item that I purchased from Ulta is Urban Decay's Naked 2 palette. I am so excited to use this! Even though Naked 3 just came out, I think the colors in Naked 2 are so much nicer!


This picture does no justice for the palette. The colors are beyond gorgeous! 
It also came with an Urban Decay lip gloss. The color matches my natural lip color!

Lingerie Fiend: Winter Lingerie

I seriously have a lingerie addiction whether it be from Target or Journelle, I love it!
I am going to be starting a new blog series called the Lingerie Fiend, it will be basically be anything and everything to do with lingerie! Hauls, finds, reviews, etc!!

LINGERIE FIEND: WINTER LINGERIE

Welcome to the first post of the Lingerie Fiend blog series! Hopefully you're as excited as I am. 
This post will be dedicated to lingerie perfect for winter/fall. 

This set is from Gilly Hicks, I've personally never shopped there but Gilly Hicks is also a distributor for Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister! So if shop at any of the two perhaps you own a pair :3 Anyways, this is a push up balconette bra in Navy which matching cheeky underwear. The bra comes in eight other colors, and the panties in four others! 
Also Gilly Hicks is having a really awesome deal, you can buy 10 pairs of their underwear for $26.50!! Amazing deal in my opinion they have all different kinds of styles of underwear and cute ones as well!

Both pieces are from Victoria's Secret, which seems to be almost every lady's go to lingerie store! I really love this baby doll, pink is one of my favorite colors.

AHHHH! I love these pieces so much they are both from Modcloth. Love This Life Bralette and Love This Life Undies, sold in sizes small, medium and large!
