Physicians Formula 'Rose' Happy Booster Blush

This year I was finally Goldilocks for Halloween! I say finally because I've wanted to dress up as this fairytale character for years! With my blond hair I thought I could make a decent Goldilocks, and I think I managed it.
I pretty much covered my face in gold glitter. I don't know how well it's showing up in the pictures, but I picked up a Wet N Wild eye shadow that was perfect for it! 
All I had to do was curl my hair, apply the glitter, and force my husband to dress as a bear! Just kidding. There was no forcing involved (I don't think).

What are you dressing up as??

e.l.f. Snow White Limited Edition Collection

 Snow White Brush Gift Set $9.99
Eyeshadow & Mascara Set $4.99
Blush/Bronzer Duo & Mini Kabuki Brush $4.99

I went a little Snow White crazy, but could you blame me? She's my favorite Disney princess and I stumbled upon this limited edition makeup at Walgreens the other day.
These lovely products are made by elf and I think they are just the cutest! Elf knows how to do limited edition items! 
I believe this collection came out a couple months ago, and I'm glad I got my hands on it before it's gone.
I especially love the eyeshadow colors. They're just gorgeous! And the brushes are the cutest. Not the best brushes ever, but I do use them! And the mascara really surprised me with how good it is.
If you are a Snow White lover like me, then I think you'll love this! 
I know there are more items in the collection, but I only bought the ones I could really see myself using. I did see a set of fake eyelashes and a Snow White beauty book that I didn't pick up. 

Now I can feel like a princess while doing my makeup :D

Halloween Cat Makeup (Pretty Kitty Decals)



I stopped in Spirit Halloween, which is a seasonal store full of Halloween costumes and fun things for Halloween.
I found these face stickers called 'Pretty Kitty Decals' and I really wanted to try them out!
They are super cute! Basically you just do your makeup and put the stickers on, add some cat ears and you're good to go.
Unfortunately, these stickers are terribly uncomfortable. Especially around the eyes. YIKES! I wanted to pull them off right away!
But look at how cute :D

OOTD: Follow Your Dreams

Cat Ears-Rue21
Top-Rue21
Skirt-Modcloth
Shoes-Payless 
Necklace-Gift from Sophie

Follow your dreams.
Wear cat ears casually.
Put on purple lipstick.
Celebrate life.

This is one of my favorite outfits because it's so very me. Especially the skirt. I love it, and I know I've used it in past outfit posts and no doubt I'll be wearing it again for future posts.

The top and the necklace both make me think of my friend Sophie, who lives really far away but is one of my best friends. I couldn't imagine not being friends with her. She's all about following her dreams and it's truly inspirational! 

I hope you're following your dreams!

Zoella Insired Fall Makeup

 Cat Ears- Rue21
Sweater-Rue21

 I've been wearing this makeup look for the past week and I love it so much! The Wet N Wild lipstick 'Cherry Bomb' is the perfect fall color, and it's super affordable but also great quality. 
I did a milkmaid braid and added the cat ears because it's Halloween time so I think it's appropriate to be a cat (although I think it's ok to be a cat everyday). 

This is one of the most comfortable sweaters ever! I'll no doubt be doing some OOTD's with it soon! 

Zoella did an Autumn/Fall look and that's where I got the inspiration for this post. It's not exactly like hers, but I did try!

Bloody Mary Makeup Tutorial


You're dared to go into the bathroom.
Turn off the light.
Look in the mirror.
And say the words 'Bloody Mary' three times.

There is a ton of lore surrounding Bloody Mary. She's a witch, a ghost, a corpse. When she appears to you she scratches your eyes out. She screams. She wails. 

When I was a child I did this a lot. I never actually saw Mary, but maybe you will. Are you brave enough to try and see her? 

But...like...for real. Filming myself in a dark bathroom with candles lit and saying her name...it was a bit scary. Haha :D Anything for a good video!

OOTD: Red & Black Stripes

Dress-Forever21
Boots-Rue21
Ring-Lia Sophia 
Purse-Gifted

I haven't worn this dress in months! Which is a shame because I love it so so so much!! The stripes and the colors are just perfect. 
It's one of my favorite dresses, but I think the color suits fall and winter so well. And now that it's fall I'll be wearing it all the time! 

I have all the fall feels lately. I drink pumpkin spice latte's like crazy. Cuddle up in sweaters. Wear dark lipstick. Watch all the scary movies!! I can't wait to do some pumpkin carving!! Hope you all are enjoying fall so far. What's your favorite part of the season? And do you have a favorite horror movie? Tell me! Tell me!
