Cute and creative way to be asked to be a bridesmaid

I received this precious little box in the mail. I opened it up to find sand and a small shell wrapped with beautiful bow. I pulled the scroll out. It read, "I couldn't say "I do" without you, Kendyl. Will you be my maid of honor?"

 love Amanda.

 It was the the best and most creative way I was ever asked to be in a wedding and I'm so honored to be a part of my sisters very special day! They're getting married in October 2014 in Cancun and we are counting down the days! I'm so lucky and blessed to be such a big part of this and I'm so happy for Amanda & Kevin! 

I wish I would've done something like this for my bridesmaids! Its so original and makes the wedding party feel so special. I know I do! :)

Vegas or bust!

We went to Vegas for our friend Jaises 30th birthday and I just thought I'd share a few pictures. We had an amazing time! 

Camille and I just starting in on the fun!

The birthday boy, Jaise and Erica getting cozy with Edward Scissorhands! He was the best Edward Scissorhands I have ever seen!

Erica and I at Fremont Street.... We saw some crazies that night for sure!

What a fun trip! I'm so lucky to have such amazing friends! 

NYX lip gloss is AMAZ! NO JOKE

Ok, has anyone ever tried this?! I was strolling along in Ulta, promising my four-year-old daughter I would buy her some new lipgloss and I came across this NYX brand and in a three pack for $5. I've never heard of this brand but I thought it was a really good price for three lipgloss tubes, so I got it!

 I'm in my car and I bust open the packaging. I decide to try out the nude, pinkish color.... to my surprise I LOVE IT! SERIOUSLY! This. lipgloss. is. amazing. How could that be? I spend a fortune on make up and especially on lipgloss! I normally go for any kind of Mac, bare essentials or urban decay as far as anything for my kisser goes. The prices vary from $15-$20 but if I'm shopping at Mac I get my pro discount because I have my full cosmetology license so it's about 30-40% less, but come on, nothing beats this NYX price! Not even with my pro discount! 

It's called butter gloss and let me tell you, it feels like soft butter on your lips for real! It doesn't get all funky and leave that nasty lip gloss line or feel too thick like when you move your lips together and can't hardly move them back-and-forth. It's just the perfect consistency and the colors are out of this world! I am so pleased with this product I had to share and the best part about it is the price! 

Go out and buy this NYX butter gloss and you'll see what I'm talking about. 

And furthermore, I had to go back and get my daughter a new pack of lip gloss because I am obsessed! 

Please feel free to comment on the results :)
