It's a Beautiful, Colorful World

Last weekend was sooooo nice!! The weather here in the NW was crisp, clean, and slightly windy. The beautiful & colorful Fall leaves were blowing everywhere and falling from the trees like snow.

My husband and I started the day with a trip to a Farmer's Market. This particular one, is freaking fabulous! The prices and excellent and you have your choice of pretty much any kind of produce you can think of. It's harvest time!

We purchased some yummy cherry tomatoes (which I LOVE to top with crumbled goat cheese, and a vinaigrette) red potatoes, and the most lovely dark purple Dahlia bouquet. For.....get this...... $10! Our living room is finally finished, and I wanted to put something beautiful in one of my antique vases. Did you watch my video on how it all turned out?! I am SO happy!

Here are a few fun photos from my weekend.

My Hubby loves it when I wear hats :)

Don't you just want to sit in these pretty Fall leaves too?!

Too Sketchy

So if you follow me on Facebook, I had shared last night that the lying lady who has the bag I want on Bonanza, also has it listed on Ebay. Twice. Yes, same exact posting, same pics, and same flaws. I hate sellers like this!! I was going to give Ebay a shot again. I am such a fan of Etsy because it seems like most shop owners actually CARE about  their customers! This lady looked like she was about to burn someone, and it won't be me. I wish there was some way to warn the other buyers, but Ebay keeps everything on lock down and there is no way for me to even message them :(


For now, I will just be patient and hope my dream bag goes on sale......

Is it possible to fall in Love with a handbag?.......

Confession~ I have never purchased a handbag over $50. Don't get me wrong. I do lust after the sought after designer handbags I see in my fashion magazines. I have been lucky enough to score some amazing designer bags at the thrift store and also sooooo eternally grateful for the gorgeous bags that have been gifted to me by my BFF. She has impeccable taste, and has really taught me to seek quality goods.
So this day is a big day for me. Today, I am hopefully treating myself to the bag of my dreams. Here she is:

The Michael Kors Large Jet Set Grayson in Gold!!!! In a shiny metallic monogram. Light beige handles with a stud detail. Could she be and more lux and sexy? See?...... she must already be family!! Ohhh.....but why must this incredible bag cost $300!!?!?!
I was so excited to find this sexy thang on a site very similar to Ebay! I have made an offer to the seller for $210, I hope she accepts. The wait is killing me!!!!

Spikes and Leopard to the Office?!......Heck Yeah!

Add a bright pop of color with a cardi

So, when I am not searching the thrift stores for the next amazing designer find, I am working at my "office" job. One may think that I should dress more conservatively and "secretary" like. But, nope. Not me. I believe a woman can  look professional and still  let some of her personality  & uniqueness shine through.

I am a firm believer that the best way to build your wardrobe is to invest your $$ into timeless classic pieces and follow the trends with fun accessories. Shop Belina , one of my fave online jewelry sites contacted me and said they named a necklace after me!! How cool is that!? 

Well, check out the fierce "Selena" necklace and just see for your self........

The "Selena" spike necklace is available on the Belina website for only $22

Nail Stamping Trend

Okay,
I am so super freaking excited! I just ordered a nail stamping kit from Ebay....I have been obsessed with the Sally Hansen nail decals, but they are kinda pricey and can dry out if you are not careful. So I have been the hunt for a cheaper alternative......one of my wonderful subbies mentioned nail stamping. I was curious and watched a couple YT tutorials, and had to have a kit. Like, now.
I found the perfect starter kit on Ebay for only $15. Can't wait to show you how they turn out!

Let's Just Do it

Aahhhh...
Hello my loves, so sorry I have been MIA for days. I was getting frustrated with the whole blogging idea because, well..........I am not the best writer. But I have decided that I should just write as I normally speak! My fave bloggers actually post in this manner and I LOVE it!!!


So I hardly talk beauty in my YouTube channel, but I am on my way to Ulta this morning in search of the perf foundation. Yes, the flawless, airbrushed look. I got the latest catalog and PINK is the theme. It is breast cancer awareness month after all! I, myself, have had many close people in my life affected by cancer. So why not help donate to finding a cure?.......I know all of the pink goodies will be irresistible.
