Birchbox

You have probably heard of the hit subscription box by now- Birchbox. But, if you haven't, it is a personalized subscription box full of beauty samples that arrives at your house for $10 every month.  The catch is that you are paying $10 for much more expensive products that really add up to be about $40 worth of products.

My Birchbox recently arrived on my doorsteps and I'm sharing with you this months samples.  If you are interested in subscribing to Birchbox (which I highly recommend- it's like Christmas every month!) click the link here.

1. Pixi Lip Shea Butter- This is my favorite sample in the box, not only because it is full sized, but I love all lip products.  This one smells delicious and soothes chapped lips.

2.  Suki Exfoliating Cleanser- I really like this cleanser, I have only used it once so I'm not sure who well it will work but it smelled great!

3. Curl Keeper- In the Birchbox I only got a foil packet sample which was highly disappointing, but I do have to say it worked well and kept my hair relatively curly, I may have to buy a bigger bottle.

4.  Dr. Jart Pores No More- Have not had the chance to try this out yet, looks great and hopefully it works.  Decent sample size.

5. Yu-Be-  I am slightly disappointed with this product because it is a tiny sample size.  I like samples that I can use more than two times like the Pixi Shea Butter and Suki Exfoliator.  But, it was a pretty good moisturizer for dry skin.

Overall I would give this Birchbox a 6/10.  I enjoyed the bigger samples that I mentioned earlier, and wasn't loving the foil packet and tiny Yu-Be sample.  Can't wait for next months Birch box, and remember to heck out the link above (in the intro) to get a birch box for yourself!

Jeans and Tank

The other night my friends and I went out to a local burgers and fries restaurant, you may have heard of Wahlburgers- it has a TV show.  Anyways, that isn't really the point.

 It was surprisingly warm out, which kind of made me mad because I just want it to be Fall already!  I refused to put on shorts because I feel like I am past that point in the year, so instead I paired classic navy jeans with a tank top.  I then added a semi-statement necklace and put a scrunchie in my hair.  I pulled out sandals for hopefully the last time until Spring to complete the look.

I love the fun pattern on the shirt.

 I heart scrunchies.  Don't you??

Incase you were wondering how delicious our food was.  I got the grilled cheese because I am a vegetarian, and let me tell you- this is the best grilled cheese.

Stay tuned for my next post on Fall Lip Products (up on Sunday).  Follow me on Bloglovin' by scrolling to the bottom of the page and pressing the Bloglovin' button, you will get notified when I upload a new blog.

Kylie Jenner Fashion

Kylie Jenner is a fashion icon to me.  But, I understand she is one of the people which you either love her style or hate it.  I for one, love it and wish I was her, she is my favorite person on Keeping Up with the Kardashians.  I picked out my top 5 favorite looks of her casual street style.

*before you start, leave in the comment section what upcoming blog posts you would like to see

 5.  I love this look because recently I have been in to the long, tight skirts that go past the knees paired with a plain crop top.  Her shoes are perfect and tie together the skirt and top nicely.

 4.  This look is stunning.  The skirt goes perfectly with the shoes, which are to die for.  And if you look closely, the gold jewelry really compliments the nude skirt and hand bag.  Forgot to mention her sunglasses, they are on point.

 3.  My favorite color is black so this outfit was naturally a winner.  You cannot go wrong with all black.  Her shoes and her handbag are my favorite parts of this simple outfit, I also like that her hair has no added color and is just plain black to match the look.

2.  Look number two is great because Kylie's hair matches her jumper perfectly.  I love the jumper with the gold shoes and accessories, and even the color of her nails.  (Kylie's nails always look amazing...)

1.  My favorite of Kylie's street style is a simple but adorable look.  I like the color of Kylie's skirt, and I really like the texture and detailing, so it is not as plain.  The black crop top she wore with it works, and it brings out the shoes which are fantastic!  I usually do not like the kind of shades she is wearing, but she rocks them.

Those are my 5 favorite looks!  Are you a Kylie Jenner fan?  Which look was your favorite?

Fall 2014 Wishlist

Fall is probably my favorite time of year to go shopping.  It means warmer clothes and a fresh wardrobe for school.  I generally find the best sales during Fall whether it is over Labor Day weekend, Columbus day weekend, and of course... Black Friday.  These are a few of the items on my Fall wish list that I hope to purchase at some point during this sale season.

1. Plaid Skirt
I have been loving the plaid skirt and knee high socks look.  Stores such as Brandy Melville and American Apparel have adorable plaid skirts that not many people can rock so it's definitely a fashion risk and one I want to try out.

2. T-shirt Dress
If you live somewhere on the warmer side like California or Florida, a T-shirt dress should be your go to Fall look.  They are comfortable and stylish.  If you add a bold piece of jewelry and some cute shoes, you have quickly created a fashion statement.

3. Black Leather Backpack
Mini backpacks are so cute and the perfect size for day trips or sleepovers.  The black one above match everything and the leather gives it a chic look.

4.  Tribal Moccasins
I recently purchased a pair of moccasins and ever since then have fell in love.  I saw some tribal ones and think they are really cute and would be super comfortable for all of fall- especially if you live somewhere the weather gets chilly.

5. Elephant necklace
Elephants have taken over the summer and should carry into Fall as a popular fashion trend.  Anything elephant works for me and I especially love the gold necklace pictured above.

6. China Glaze Nail Polish Set
This group of nail polish is stunning, the dark colors are awesome.  Fall is the time to not only bring out the dark lips, but the dark nails.  And this set from China Glaze does the job and will make you all set for the season.
