Valentine's Day

So I know Valentine's day is just a made up holiday geared at making couples feel all "lovey dovey" and singles feel awful for being single, it's a hallmark holiday, a made up one that aims to make $$$, but I still kinda like it... just a little. Take a look at these gorgeous party decor pics and tell me you don't too?

Beauty Bag: Lindsay, The Pursuit of Style

I'm excited that Liz asked me to share a peek into my make up bag but hope you won't find it too boring since I'm not much of a product junkie! Instead, I tend to stick with tried and true favorites and have been using some of the following products for years. Here are some of my current essentials:


  • Essie Polish in Lollipop- the perfect red!
  • Covergirl&Olay Simply Ageless Concealer- I've tried a million expensive under eye concealers but keep coming back to this drugstore brand. Creamy, moisturizing, and has great coverage!
  • NARS Orgasm Blush- it's won enough awards I don't need to say much about this one!
  • Kate Spade Twirl- a new addition that I can't stop spritzing.
  • Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream- great at taming those fly aways.
  • Moroccan Oil- does wonders for my thick hair!
  • NARS Super Orgasm Lip Gloss
  • L'Oreal Voluminous Waterproof Mascara- a favorite since middle school. For some reason I prefer the waterproof.
  • Too Faced Sun Bunny Bronzing Powder- I can always use a hint of color!
  • Stila Liplaze in Candy- I'm addicted to these. I ask for the holiday set every year for Christmas.
  • Shu Uemura Eylash Curler- the one thing I can't live without!
  • Stila Custom Color Blush- another new addition, this blush changes color to match your skin tone!
I hope you've enjoyed nosing around my make up bag and a big thank you to Liz for asking me to participate!

Thanks so much to the fab Lindsay of The Pursuit of Style for sharing!

Giveaway: Purple agate pendant

Aren't you lovelies so lucky two giveaways in one month! And let me tell you how AMAZING this giveaway is. Before I tell you what you may have a chance to win, I wanted to take the time and let you get to know our wonderful giveaway sponsor Elizabeth Lydon Studio.




In her own words:

"My passion for gems began in the third grade when a teacher asked the class "Who wants to be in a Rock Group?" I raised my hand immediately; of course I wanted to be a rock star! Little did I know that instead of becoming the next Janis Joplin, I was actually about to be introduced to the world of geology and gemology. After handling the intriguing rocks, crystals and fossils before me, I developed a life long passion for chunky, unusual, and sparkly things that come from the earth. 

After years of working in fine jewelry, studying gemology, and working in interior design, I have come to the realization that creating beauty in jewelry is my true passion and calling. I love to make women feel elegant and unique when they put on that special piece I have created for them.

I hope you find my jewelry intriguing, elegant, luxurious, and fun. When you purchase a piece from me you will find it does not sit in the drawer but will be one of your favorites to wear."

Beauty Bag: Jackie, Sweetie Pie Style

Hi there! Jackie from Sweetie Pie Style here to share with you what is inside my makeup bag. I am so thrilled Liz asked me to participate as I love this series!  Girly delights are so fun!

Here we go...

Makeup bag-Juicy Couture.  Gifted to me by my best friend last year.



My go-to all-in-one makeup palette-Benefit's "Glowla".  I use the eyeshadows and blush on a daily basis. (Although I am not a big fan of their mascara)



Lipgloss-I'm not much of a lipstick gal, but I love me a good lipgloss.  I have so many that are all pretty much the same natural lipcolor shade.  I just grab whichever one is closest and swipe it on.


Mascara-I am a fan of Covergirl's Lash Blast in Blackest Black.  If I want to be more fancy I will curl my eyelashes with a Shu Uemura curler 

Powder-I love Covergirl's trublend minerals loose face powder.  It has great coverage and the tiniest bit of shimmer that really makes you glow.



Base-I use Benefit's The POREfessional as a base underneath my powder.  I dab it on my forehead, nose and under my eyes.  It is great at filling in tiny wrinkles and pores, and helps your makeup go on super smooth.

Blush-Benefit has a great line of blushes. In addition to the one in my "Glowla" set, I have "Throb" and "Sugarbomb" (pictured)

Perfume-My signature scent is Lollia's Wish No. 22.  It's a delicious blend of jasmine, vanilla, and other fancy stuff! Go ahead and borrow it if you like ;)

Nail polish-9 times out of 10 I reach for OPI's "You Don't Know Jacques" when I paint my nails.



I hope you enjoyed this peek inside my makeup bag!


Thanks so much to Jackie for sharing with us!!
