My Top 10 Girl gifts this year, Splurge and Save

I pulled together a collection of my favorite things to gift for every occasion.





For the beauty Guru:

  1. The Splurge- Anastasia Beverly Hills Sultry Eye palette - $45

    The pictures don't really do it justice.  When I saw it online I was sort of bored.  When I saw it at Sephora I bought it immediately.  It is the cooler version of the Soft Glam palette which is my favorite of all time.  If you want to splurge, I highly suggest doing so. Linked Here at Sephora
  2.  The Save- Any Colourpop Palette (I featured the Give it to me straight Palette) -$16

    These palettes are mostly $16 dollars and I guarantee they will have even more cute holiday ones.  I have never gone wrong purchasing one of these palettes from them.  The quality is just as good, if not better than a lot of high end ones.  Linked Here from Colourpop

 The Accessorizer-


  1. The Splurge: Diamond Accent Sideways Arrow Necklace in Silver - $104.25

 I love this piece because it is beautiful and simple.  You can stack it with other jewelry or wear it alone.  It is the most beautiful piece every girl would love.  Linked Here at Zales

2.  The Save- Swarovski Crystal and Silver Necklace - 39.99

This elegant necklace would match anyone's personal style.  It sparkles just enough and can be dressed up or or down.  You also can't beat the price.  Linked Here at Roma 

 

The Comfort Specialist

 This cozy sweater is a dream.  It is as comfy as it looks.  It will keep you warm through all of those chilly nights! Linked Here at Nordstrom

 

2. The Save-  Sherpa 1/4 Zip Mock-Neck Popover for Women - 39.99 (But usually on cheaper sale at old navy)

 This feels like a warm hug.  It's the only way I can describe it.  I can't get enough of how soft it is.  Plus, Old Navy always has sales.  Keep an eye on it and I bet you can pick it up for 50% off soon.

 For the Book Worm

1. An Ember in the Ashes - $9.59

 This is one of the finest series I've ever read.  It's an action/adventure with an amazing plot line that makes you not want to put it down.  There are 3 books in the series so far.  I've linked the first one here.  Linked Here from Amazon

2. Caraval - 8.79

If you like an Alice in Wonderland adventure with a bit of Romance this is the book for you.  It's fun adventure of twists, turns and oddities.  There is 2 books of the 3 book series out so far.  I'll link it here. Linked Here from Amazon


For the Techie:

 

1. The Splurge- Fire HD 10 Tablet- 149.99

My Husband and I got our Fire Tablets for our honeymoon cruise and I have loved every second of it.  Not only do I use it to watch tv/hulu while I'm getting ready or cleaning, I can play my audio books from it as well.  I love the versatility and the price. Linked Here at Amazon

2. The save- DOSS SoundBox Pro Wireless Bluetooth Speaker - $44.99

A wedding to remember

As we come up on my wedding date a year ago I am flooded with the memories and the insanity of that one particular day. It was one of the hottest days of the year.  I had insisted on being a June bride, understanding that this could have been a possibility and yet sucked into the hallmark concept of June.  I can blame it most likely on my yearly overdose of Hallmark Christmas movies.  Regardless I insisted June 17th, 2017 was the perfect day to be married.  It was easy to remember and it was a Saturday in June. The venue we had reserved was well within our small budget, as they claim the average wedding cost is 40k... ours was  a sliver of that.  It was a small little old country club with a big space.  A nice big space where we could set up however we wanted.  Everything was fine until we got there the day before to set up.  What we did not know at the time and the venue failed to mention was that the copper had been stripped out of t...

Self Tanning 101- How to tan at Home

I have been 50 shades of orange, which is not nearly as sexy as 50 shades of gray.  I have worn jeans in middle of summer to cover up some sort of tangerine experiment I did on my legs in the name of self tanning.  Over the countless mistakes I've made I've found some gems and have found gold, and by that I mean a golden glow.😉 *Disclaimer: I do not tan easily in the sun so Sunless Tanning is the best option for me.  All skin colors are beautiful.  Also I am not sponsored, my opinions are my own and  products purchased by me  Things you will need to achieve that I just came back from a beach vacation in my bathroom look: A good lotion- I use CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion that costs about 13 at Target but any lotion will do A makeup brush- I use the E.L.F. Ultimate Blending Brush which is about 6 dollars and is absolutely perfect for application Either a Tanning Applicator Mitt like This one for about 6.50 or some Latex Gloves like These for...

Trying out Two Sweet Birds Boutique

I was contacted by the lovely Tammy from Two Sweet Birds to try out a few of their products and I wanted to share them with you.  Two Sweet Birds is an online boutique featuring clothing, home decor and accessories, with a handful of beautiful items for each category.  The three items I'm reviewing our below: 1. The Daphne Rhinestone Cuff Bracelet Daphne Rhinestone Cuff Bracelet 9.99 Linked Here This gorgeous bracelet slips on easily and is very flexible.  It is extremely lightweight and is dainty enough to go with anything.  It is also Lead and Nickel Free.  I love how versitile it is that  it can dress up an outfit or just add a small sparkle to a casual look.  It is also one of the few bracelets to ever fit me.  I have a fairly small wrist and it sits nicely on my arm. 2. Cecelia Blue Embroidered Tiered Dress Cecelia Blue Embroidered Tiered Dress.  Currently on sale for 39.99.  Linked Here This dress is absolutely ...
