Happy Fridayizle

Happy Friday! Only 2 weeks left of the summer class and I am hoping to get to blogging on the regular. I have all sorts of fun posts running through my mind that I would like to share. First, I painted my nails with the mint candy apple last night and I am in love! So happy to have gotten my hands on it.

I got my hair done yesterday before class and I am more then pleased with the results. I was aiming to go all blond but decided to get low lights added back into yesterday and I am so glad I did, my face looked very flat if you know what I mean without the low lights. I now have my dimension back and it brings out a very nice color skin tone and lightens the look of my eyes. Its amazing what a cut and color can do. I'm ready to buy a cute outfit and head out on the town. I went shopping last week and scored a $6 coach wristlet from a used clothing store and also a awesome pair of sparkle sunglasses for $6 both awesome finds. Im planning on trying to find some deals today with a budget of only $20.00 Im def going to take some pictures this time and really start to get better with updating this blog. Im really into maxi dresses this week, ive seen some girls really pull the look off, I have about 4 maxi dresses but 2 of them are really long, im 5'3" so its hard to find a good length for myself.

4th of July was fun, we went on a 18 mile bike ride on the NCR trail and then watched fireworks with my sister and my baby niece.

Pictures from the past weekend :)

I am going to do a fun HEAT LESS CURL tutorial in the near future so stay tuned and have a great weekend everyone.

Break!

Ahh finally a break from school..a whole 5 days, and it will be 5 days of bliss my brain already feels better. Birthday was a blast my friends are so amazing and also my sister they made it extra special for me and BF even got me a cake with a panda on it :) how sweet of him. We went down town Baltimore to a strip of bars outside of the Orioles stadium..got our drank on and walked over to "watch the game" we all stood out by the vendors talking and drinking instead and then at the end of the game it was fireworks night! Fireworks on my bday! yey! Then we caught the light rail back and got off on the wrong exit and ended up at a bar right across the street from my apartment. I spent all day sat in recovery mode!!
I am so blessed to have a really dear friend come back into my life, we lost contact for over a year and now we live 5 min from each other. I feel complete again-she always has awesome advice and loveeessss to talk  your ear off and I have always loved her for that! Anyways This weekend we have some wedding planing going on :) so happy about that!

I finally found a seller on AMAZON that has the mint candy apple from Essie and I ordered it right up.. best part is I used my gift card from doing swagbucks and I owed nothing!! Free polish!!

I'm going to buy some craft glitter and put some sparkle on one nail! Ill post some pics once it gets in.

I am a collector...of dresses, all different kinds I prob have over 30 of them in my closet. I cant stop collecting them though they are my most favorite thing to wear in the summer. I might go out this weekend and see what good deals I can get. Should be lots of sales going on. Ive also very recently become obsessed with GOLD accessory's they go very nicely with sun kissed skin!

till next time..

Rompers Oh My!

So I have lab practical today and I should be studying at this very moment but I really want to do a post on ROMPERS, they started coming around last year I believe and when I saw them I was like uh no way I will ever wear one of those!! Well I now have two in my closet! One I just purchased from H&M for 24 bucks and its my new favorite piece out of all the clothes I own, I may wear it for my bday and ill post some pics!

Here it is :) what a steal, I'm going to wear it with gold sparkly dress flip flops and I have a gold sparkle clutch to match.  This was the first romper I found that had normal sleeves and it is awesome! It doesn't look bad with the purple clutch the model has either, may have to pick myself up one of those in the near future.

Rompers are really easy to style, you can dress them up or down. I like adding a fun belt at the waist and pairing it with wedges or flats. I also like the look of a cardigan over the romper with a fun fedora.

Do you wear rompers? How do you style them?

Was not expecting that!

Ekkk so my life has been more busy then usual. This summer bio class is kicking my butt :( needless to say I started this blog at the wrong time. Only 5 more weeks to go and I'm free for a month..before the real fun starts! Anyways today is Tuesday, blah. At least I have off on Friday (because its my birthday!) Going to a baseball game weather permitting.

Ive recently read some interesting articles about hair... I usually wait every three months to get my hair trimmed and colored, because I don't want to damage my hair to much and it can also get pricey $$$.
Anyways Ive realized that when I ask to a trim it isn't the greatest a lot of hairs are missed and it costs I believe around 30.00 for this... When you have split ends and you don't get it cut the split will run all the way up the shaft of the hair and causes it to break and not grow, that's also what all those fly aways are on the top of your hair. Split hairs! So Ive been spending a little time here and there cutting all my split/dead ends myself. I got a pair of hair cutting sissorcs and while I sit out to get a little sun I cut those suckers off! Ive seen some crazy damage to my hair while doing this. Makes me really not want to use heat on my head anymore but I really cant stand the look of curls sometimes... So I only wash my hair twice a week now and in between I use Suave dry shampoo. It smells wonderful and is something I will always use from now on. Im hoping to cut off dead ends and spilt ends once a week, this will save me some money and get me more towards healthier hair. I was thinking of visting the salon in between my colors to get a deep treatment but Im not sure if that can fit into my tight budget. I may just have to make my own recipe. :)

Since im getting married in less then 1 year, im starting to take way more of an effort with my looks and health. Ive been taking 3 diffrent vitamins daily and yes I have been remembering. Ive been working out 4 days a week, this week hubby and I did 6 miles around where we live and then went swimming at the pool. On my own I did 6 1/2 miles over 3 days of running and walking and then I also do workouts at home. Ive started cutting my dead ends off, I need to have really long healthy hair for my wedding dang it! I have less then a year to get really toned and that wont be a problem at all, staying out of red robin and staying away from our favorite chinese spot is going to be a problem!

We recently just started decorating out apartment.. its been almost a year we had been there and we only had a half decorated living room. So I was pretty tired of this and put the foot down! Since then we have picked colors for our bedroom- white, purple, and grey. And it looks great we have a white comfortor with grey flowers, grey sheets and then a beautiful purple pillow from target as an accent. We purchased a beautiful huge white dresser and some frames and light purple candles to put on top. We also didnt have curtains.. can you beleive it. Haha so we have some really nice grey ones now. You would be amazed how diffrent things look with just a few changes. We have to start off slow with the decorating because we need to be mindful of our spending with the wedding and all, and im totally fine with that!

Anyways I need to get back to studying, I have some awesome posts to come! Just need to get a little bit more organized!

ps* My sister asked me to be Marissas godmother, what an honor <3

Welp its Tuesday!

Ahhh since you are reading this I guess I made it through another Monday? Class turned out not to be the end of world.. I got lucky with a kick butt teacher :) Anyways im in a particulary great mood this morning and that isnt typicall! I got a letter last night when I got home that I made the schools Dean List, great news right?! Every little bit counts. Today will be filled with studying and im going to squeeze time to run some hard core miles at the track I just discovered by my house and also a long bike ride session with the hubby to be! Ive been having a hagerring to do some shopping but ive been strong for over a month now with only the purchase of a dress! I cant believe it myself. Tomroww I will talk about some of my diet and beauty tips. Still getting into this blog thing.. I had a personal blog but would rather blog about some of my life, important events, fashion, make-up and dieting rather than blabbering!

oh yea its freaking 75 sunny and a cool breeze out today that could be contrbuiting to my mood!

Mondays...

The title of this article should say it all... Mondays, who really does like Mondays anyway? Mondays have always been my worst enemy I hate Mondays and Mondays hate me! Its the start of a new work week for many. After a relaxing weekend or even an event packed weekend who really wants to go to work? Id rather sleep in on Mondays ,although lawn services are butt crack of dawn Monday what the heck!



 Anyways id like to just sleep in cuddle with my love and my two kitties wake up around 10 have a pancake and egg breakfast, catch up with shows Ive dvrd over my busy week/weekend. Go for a long walk or bike ride. Have a late lunch with a friend and indulge in a much needed shopping trip along with girl esq conversations. Id like to dive into my new magazines that have been collecting dust and perhaps the books Ive checked out at the library 2 weeks ago that only have the first few pages read.. The Wedding by Nicolas Sparks seems like its going to be just what I expected..a book that captures my heart. Id like to lay out at the pool and people watch and listen to my ipod.

Id love to then organize my closet by color and discover new ways to wear my favorite pieces, organize all my jewelery and catch up on my favorite blogs.

 Id then love to bake a wonderful Italian dinner for hubby to be and I and watch a red box movie.. that's how Mondays should be.. Wouldn't you agree? Instead I'm working my part time job, have a million things to do once I get off and on top of that my summer BIOLOGY class starts you guessed it.. Monday night about 4 hours long. Shoot me now, just do it! Ill probably end up eating a bowl of Cheerios and having a glass of wine for dinner. I need to start finding ways to make the most out of Monday because lets face it, it isn't going anywhere.

What are your Mondays like?
