Pashminas!


Ok so I have been on a major accessories craze lately, Im not sure why but I just am. I have been constantly looking at Forever 21's cheap necklaces and macys and places like that. Also, I have been wearing a ton of scarves. I want to go to NYC like right now (when dont I want to go) and buy more of those super cheap scarves they sell on the streets for like $5 because they have like every color I want and every single pattern I can think of. (So if anyone lives in NYC lemme know so i can pay you ahah just kidding). But anyways I have been loving scarves a ton and I just wanted to share my love for them! Oh and expect a new video about how to wear scarves up in the next week or two :) And a longer blog post probably tomorrow!

as always hugss and kissessss!

Proactiv at a Glance



This is just a really super fast post because in a few minutes I have to go get ready to go sit on some babies aka babysit. I am really tired but hey, money! So anyways I was sent products to review from Proactiv and I featured them in my newest video: My Skincare Routine. I actually started Proactiv in August and it actually did tame the ugly under the skin acne I had. I had a ton of little bumps on my forehead and I couldnt even cover it up because the texture was so bumpy. So we gave Proactiv a shot and it cleared up those bumps and decreased the amount of breakouts I had. I know Proactiv doesnt work for some people, but it worked for both my brother and I.

My brother had acne on his cheeks and forehead pretty badly and I think its safe to say that Proactiv decreased the amount of breakouts he had. My favorite items are the renewing cleanser and the moustirizer because to me these items are the items that really help eliminate those weird skin problems/ acne I had.

Enjoy that lovely picture I posted of my before Proactiv and after Proactiv! Its hard to see the bumps in the before picture but believe me, its there.

Current Wishlist



1.) Flip Mino HD Camcorder- Have you guys seen the tests for this camcorders quality? Umm lets just say, its amazing! At first I was like who would want this because you cant even see yourself when your filming which I alway like because you can see if your in the frame or your hair is messed up. But I really like this plus its so small I can carry it in my purse in case I have those days when I feel like getting some footage or just silly videos as keepsake memories of high school.

2.) Bird Necklace- This is from Forever 21 just to let you know and I already ordered this online because its so freaking cute. I love silver jewelry and I just love the little bird. Now Im just waiting to receive this in the mail. Just waiting...

3.) Gray Tall Uggs- My mom was about to buy me these last sunday when we went shopping but for some reason I told her no? I dont know why. Cause she felt bad that I didnt get a "big" present this year. And I didnt get my Uggs that I wanted so badly! But thats okay I am very appreciative of what I have. Thanks mom and dad!

4.) Patent Leather Coach Poppy Spotlight- Except I want it in that plum one because I just love the color plum. They didnt have a picture of that one though on Polyvore, which is where I made this collage of stuff I want. Its such a cute bag and its sophisticated but young at the same time since its patent purple leather!

5.) Speedy 30- Must I explain this one? Its only the most classy bag ever (well other than Chanel). I just want one so bad before I go off to college.

6.) Hot Tools Curling Iron- My friend Mimi, Beautyxxgoddess on youtube, always talks about how amazing hot tool curling irons are, so i was like hey I want to try one. I want the one she has which I think is the 5/8 of an inch because when she does tutorials the curls always turn out so much like Taylor Swifts.

Thats it :) Tell me whats on your WISH list for the new year :)

xoxo!

Forever 21 for Less than 21

Hey girls! So as most of you know I am a huge fan of Forever 21. I love that store, I seriously believe half or more of my wardrobe is from there. Its well priced and very fashionable. Last night when I was checking out the clothes because I was ordering stuff, I saw a ton of cute pieces that I think you all would love to see that are all under $21 Plus I know alot of you like it when I show you all my "style".

The first item is this adorable top. Probably my favorite shirt on the site. I love the sleeves on this top because they are really trendy but sophisticated. I think its a very preppy shirt and I really like wearing blacks, not because I am gloomy, but because its a very slimming color. Only $17.80!!


The next top is really feminine and sophisticated, my favorite type of clothing! Its a chiffon top with a deep V neck and a slimming waistline that just hits you right in your smallest part of your waist. I love the soft florals in this shirt and the lace. This detailed shirt is only $19.80. Bargain?! Yes!


This dress is super cute. Its got the nice floral bottom part of the dress that is available in two different colors, pink or blue, personally I like the pink because I just love pink. Not to mention the top part is black, my favorite color to wear! Its a great piece to add to your wardrobe for the Winter and even into Spring because of the floral print. This can be yours for $13.80.


The skirt is so trendy! Its high waisted and houndstooth, can you get any better than that? I love the bow on the front because it just adds a flair of girlyness to it which I love! It would look really cute with a white or black plain shirt and a silver neckace.
Its $14.80,


So that wraps up my post for today. I hope you all enjoyed this!

As always XOXO,

Alice in Wonderland!

Ok. I have been major slacking on my blog lately, like I completely forgot about it and I am very ashamed of myself. Bad Sarah!
But i have an excuse this time I promise. It was the Holiday season so i couldnt really do much because I was so busy with making cookies, wrapping gifts and stuff like that. So thats my excuse... moving on!

Urban Decay has released a new Book of Shadows with "Alice in Wonderland" and I am not going to lie, these colors are amazing! It retails for around 40 dollars I think and was released on December 28th. I really want to check this out because its too cute and features 16 Urban Decay eyeshadows in it. Some eyeshadows names are even based off of actual things from the book/movie. I've included two pictures below so take a look!



Also I was looking at some MAC promo pictures for their new collection and I think this is Ali Michaels aka my favorite model in the photo. It looks just like it. She was also in a Coach ad not to long ago. She is so fierce!

New Hair


I dyed my hair just a tad more brown and I really like it! Let me know what you think by posting a comment below!

Dear John

Only the best book I have read in a while. I love Nicholas Sparks. I think he just has a way to make anyone cry. The thing he makes his characters say amaze me because they are so sweet. I worship him. Here are some quotes that were my favorite from the book. Please check this book out at your library or buy it!

"True love meant that you care for another person’s happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be."

"It's possible to go on, no matter how impossible it seems, and that in time, the grief . . . lessens. It may not go away completely, but after a while it's not so overwhelming."

"Our story has three parts: a beginning, a middle, and an end. And although this is the way all stories unfold, I still can't believe that ours didn't go on forever."

Steph Pratt Glams Up!



Oh my gosh. Steph Pratt where did your inner fashionista come from? I have never seen her look so pretty before. The dress is so complimenting to her skin tone and her hair color. I love it. I have no idea what designer the dress is, but she worked it in my opinion. Do you all like it?

Forever 21 Mini Haul

So I went to Forever 21 today and my new H&M! I didnt see anything really at H&M besides this adorable beret but I talked myself out of it. I did get two things at Forever 21 though that I am super excited about.

First thing I got was this adorable dress. It looks like a black top on the top then under the bust it goes into a interesting print skirt. I love it. It was only like $13, so bargain? Yes!



And lastly I got an awesome pair of violet cordoroys to wear with my black slouchy boots. They will look so cute with them. I couldnt find them online, but I got them for only $7!

True Life: I Have 0 Creativity

Everyone is doing an In & Out blog posts and I really wanted to do one too. So i am copying others. Sorry I am not creative enough for new idea. This is different than my "Lovin & Hatin" Post because primarily they focus on just fashion. And these are like more your life and whatever you have liked recently.

In
1.) Boots- I have been loving boots so much recently. I wear my slouchy black ones and my chestnut Uggs so often its crazy. I love how versitile they are. They are definately my must haves for the fall/winter. I was going to ask Santa for another pair of Uggs, but I figured since I already have one nice pair, I should be just happy with those. So instead of Uggs I think I am going to ask for cute ankle boots.

2.) Holiday Season- I love the holiday season. Even though I dont start officially listening to Christmas music till the day after Thanksgiving I am very excited. I love Black Friday. Its one of my favorite days of the year.

3.) Louis Vuitton Speedy 30- I envy Callie for having a Speedy. Check out her blog http://timelessfashionista.blogspot.com/

4.) Feel It- This is an awesome song by Tiesto, Sean Kingston and Flo Rida. Youtube it. Amazing.

Out
1.) Cross Country- After tomorrow the season is over! I am super excited to have time to record videos and update my blog.

2.) Youtube- They havent replied to my partnership form yet...

3.) Party in the USA- I use to love this but I am getting sick of it because it like stalks me where ever I go, but I love to listen to it really loud in my friends cars and sing along really loudly with bestie :)

Best Outfits of Lady Gaga

Not only is Lady GaGa an amazing singer and performer, she is an awesome fashionista. I don't think she gets enough credit for the risks she takes in clothes, she is very avant guard and daring, which is what I love about her outfits. If you ever see something in a store that makes you think "wow who would ever wear that?" Most likely Lady GaGa would. So I have picked out my top outfits she has worn. Enjoy and share your opinion by leaving me a comment.


I love her hair in this picture. I also love the big bow in the front of the leotard and the sunglasses. Good job GaGa!


Who doesnt love her many oragami dresses? I think they look stunning on her.


Another oragami outfit.


Butterflies everywhere. I think the hat and sunglasses pull it all together.


The assymetrical aspect of the dress makes this so interesting. The contrast of curved lines and straight. Love it :)

Perfumes I want!

Ok so other than my fashion, makeup and nail polish obsession, I also have an obsession with perfumes. I know you all are shocked... just kidding. Im 100% girly girl. Of course my collection is so very small with only like five perfumes, I always want to accumulate more cause I just love smelling stuff. Each fragrance I own brings back a memory of whats happened when I wore that perfume. My ed hardy brings back memories of this spring when I went out with this guy, but now he bothers me so I dont wear my ed hardy one that much. So yeah here are the ones I'm interested in buying or trying:



1. Pink Sugar takes a journey through the pleasures and flavors of childhood with a playful blend of vanilla and caramel.

2. Miss Dior Cherie combines pure couture spirit with the audacity of youthful, playful notes for a fresh approach to a timeless classic. Notes of chic, green tangerine, violette, and pink jasmine mingle with soft patchouli, musk, and delectably sweet strawberry leaves and caramelized popcorn for a delicious scent that's truly irresistible.

3. Marc Jacobs Lola opens with pink peppercorn, pear, and ruby red grapefruit. Blooming midnotes of rose, fuschia peony, and geranium make a feminine statement. Layers of vanilla, warm tonka bean, and creamy musk create a sensous drydown.

4. Chanel Mademoiselle opens with dazzling rose, orange, and bergamot. The heart unites Bulgarian rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang and the base is composed of patchouli, vetiver, tonka, opoponax, vanilla, and white musk.

5. Fantasy possesses a blend of red lychee, kiwi, cupcake, jasmine, white chocolate, musk, orris root. Fantasy is recommended for daytime wear.

I found the descriptions online. :)
