check out these flyers!

I was messing around on the internet and stumbled across these cute Disney artworks by Mike Kungl...

They were way too neat not to share! Take a look:

They have a cool 'old school' flair about them, no?

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Tuesday! ♥

update.

I know that it has been two weeks...

...I'm very ashamed.


I have been super busy with work, my family and the upcoming holidays, which has left me little time to share. I will be back soon, starting with a collective haul. Thanks for stopping by!


P.S. Don't forget to follow if you like what you see! ;)

in and out... (3)

Okay, you know the drill...

IN:

1.) Aphogee Keratin Leave-In Treatment.
I'm falling in love with this! It makes my hair feel so nice. I have been working on getting my hair back to a really healthy state, and this product has been absolutely beneficial.

2.) Rediscoving old makeup faves.
I think I have been using the heck out of my Wet N' Wild Mega Eyes Shadow in Cherub. I can't remember when I bought it, but I've been using it almost everyday. Same for Rimmel's Glam'Eyes mascara...

3.) Finding money in your pocket.
True joy is when I pull out a winter coat and find $5 in it.

4.) Piggy banks.
Yesterday the bf and I went out to a movie. Afterwards we just wanted to kill some time and somehow ended up in Old Navy. They had the cutest (yet tacky) sparkly piggy banks in there for five dollars! Y'all know I walked out with one. The best part though? My bf got it for me... to put put my new found $5 in it. Ha!

5.) Yummy snacks.
Umm... pita chips and Trader Joe's Mango slices and white cheddar popcorn. Enough said.

6.) Falling back.
I gotta say, daylight savings is great in the fall. I love waking up at '7', and having an extra hour to chill before work is pretty sweet!

7.) Homemade cookies.
I have a favorite recipe and people always tend to love my cookies. I enjoy making them too. I really think they are force to be reckoned with, competition-wise. Or, maybe it's all in my head...

8.) Off days.
Yesterday was my off day from work, and I loved every minute of it! From waking up late to catching my soaps to hanging out, it was a wonderful day.

9.) The bf being back in town.
He had been gone for a few days... boo! But now he's back... yay! ;)



OUT:

1.) Sickness.
It seems like everyone at the J.O.B. is getting the flu! Just don't come near me... ugh! [shudders with the thought of being sick.]

2.) Weight gain.
Scale: "No...you totally have."
Me: "What do you mean??!!?? Check again!!"
Scale: "I've checked 5 times already. It's still the same..."
Me: "But, I can't possibly be up six pounds... It's not even Thanksgiving yet!"
Scale: "Get off of me."
Me: "Grrr...."

That was the conversation we had this morning. Needless to say, we aren't on speaking terms right now.

3.) Cold weather.
I'm already over it. Not even the cute winter coat is enough to make me smile. :(

Is everyone having a wonderful Wednesday? ♥

she is a peacock in everything but beauty.

I found this picture online and it inspired me to do a look...

I've always liked the look of peacock feathers and was quite pleased with my creativity! That... and who just doesn't like playing in makeup? Sometimes I like to see where my mind is going to take me. This is where it led me to:

I didn't have the greatest Monday, so it was nice just to do something fun! Here's what I used...

LA Splash Splash Proof Sealer/Base

e.l.f. Duo Eyeshadow Cream in Olive (the light green side)

CoverGirl Queen Collection Eyeshadow in Emerald (on lid)

Hard Candy Kal-eye-descope Baked Eyeshadow Duo in Ab Fab (the purple side in outer corner)

Wet N' Wild Mega Eyes Eyeshadow in Cherub (inner corner)

Sally Girl Eyeshadow in Blue Marine ($1!!!!, far corner)

L'oreal Collagen Mascara in Blackest Black (on the lashes of course!)

Mr. Wilde would have to change his statement now...  ;)

i couldn't have said it better.

the five dollar discount.

Went to Kohls yesterday and got lucky! As usual, they had a lot of stuff marked down... but I went in there looking for something specific. I wanted the limited edition Flirt! Eyes Rock Dreamy Eyes Palette. I acutally fell in love with this brand a while ago, but hadn't purchased much from it (Side note: For those still living under a rock, Flirt! Cosmetics is an Estee Lauder brand which also houses MAC! I dunno... just saying... if you're looking for a dupe at half the price...). Anyways, the palette retails for $16, but due to holiday season markdown, it was $12. Pretty sweet, I think. There were three to choose from, mine being in Poppin Peach. See below...

I can't wait to try these out!

Now, I'm sure you are wondering why I said I got lucky, right? Because, right next to the cosmetics is jewelry! Yeah, you know it was on sale! Look what I found...

Cute, no? Simple, yet sweet. I'm a sucker for rings, but I usually go for something a little bigger (read: gaudy). This was too cute to pass on though. The best part? It was $5!!!! Some of the sterling silver was marked down by 65 - 70%! I also found a cute set of pearl earrings by Croft and Barrow for $5 (three pair in different sizes) and some comfy shelf bra tank tops that were marked down from $12 to guess... Go on, guess! Yep. $5!!! (I totally bought 3.) All in all, one successful day of surprising finds. Which leads me to wonder... do I find deals or do deals find me???


What 'steals' have you found in your local Kohls? ♥

gorgeous!

Just checking in...

It was a slow-going Monday. Not bad, but not great or exciting either. Boo! I still looked cute though. Wanna see??? Yeah, ya do...

Didn't do much with my mug... I didn't even use any foundation. Just brushed on a few pats of blush, rimmed the eyes with a sheer pink shadow (Cherub by Jane Wet N' Wild) and slapped on Rimmel's Vinyl Gloss in Smitten. Sometimes simple is best!

Here's another shot of the whole outfit...

You can't really tell, but my shoes and hat are both green! That's my little pop of color for the day.

Hat: H&M $5

Dress: Kohls for like $10??

Scarf: Walmart $5

Tights: Walmart $3

Shoes: Payless ...?

Did anyone have a really exciting start to your week? ;)
