Hello Beauties!

The first fav of the past month is this Bath and Body Works Cranberry Pear Bellini candle. I have it at my desk so I can easily light it without getting up. The con to that is that there is a high fire risk. It also just makes me feel so grown up! I mean, what is more adult than a well decorated room filled with candles? Nothing! And I know what your all thinking, but get your head out go the gutter. Only candle shopping is for adults…

I’ve currently been “reading” Catch 22 by Joseph Heller. It’s a very thick and slightly confusing book about a man in WWII just trying to go home, but not being able to. It’s very well written, and I promise you that you’ll laugh from the absurdity of the whole thing. It gets weird.

 I went shopping a while back *GASP* and bought this really sweet watch from Target. It has a faux leather band and a beautiful face, all for $10! And yes, it actually works! I tend to be one of those people that needs to have one watch that goes with everything, and if it doesn’t then I don’t want it. Thankfully this watch can be so easily dressed up or down, and I keep it in my makeup bag so that I will remember it every morning.

I also picked up this faux leather backpack/purse whilst at Target! It is huge. I mean honestly, it is so very, very huge. I can’t handle how massive it is. It’s like the bag in Mary Poppins; it holds everything. All of the normal contents in my bag take up a fifth of what this can hold.

My next favorite is this very naughty tea mug! Tea mug, is that what they are called? British people, quick, what is it called?! This is my favorite mug and it makes me want to buy more snarky and slightly inappropriate mugs for my own amusement. Where did I get it you ask? Urban Outfitters, where else?

Finally, and most randomly, is the Nutribullet. This thing is amazing. I’m drinking so many smoothies, which are a great way to eat but also not have to waste energy on chewing. I’m a genius. Anyways, this extreme blender thingy is the best thing to ever happen to me, so thank you Nutribullet. You have earned a spot in my April Favorites.

I hope that you guys enjoyed this post, please comment and watch the accompanying YOUTUBE VIDEO HERE!

Two Girls Try Canadian Candies!

Hello Beauties!

I just posted this new video on my channel! Click the photo to watch it! Also, I’d love to hear from you guys on how I should post these videos. I think I’m going to start switching off each week between my blog and Youtube channel, but don’t worry, there will ALWAYS be content! I’d just like to know how to promote these videos! So tell me what you think! 😉

What I Pack for College Visits!

Hello My Beauties!

DSC_0001

Much like the 2008 Disney movie College Road Trip starring Raven Symoné, I’m going to visit colleges all this week! Granted they are all in the generally in the same area. It’s just that that area is 11 hours away. I’m going to die.

For this week’s video I decided to film how I packed and then I sped it up because it kinda took a while. Anyways it was a lot of fun to film and I’m pretty pleased with the finished product! (And my lipstick is on point).

Look out for my Monthly Interview this Wednesday as well as a longer, and more dedicated, post this Saturday!

Peace, Love, and Baby Ducks,
