Pastel Perfection

              I still love the My Little Pony pastel trend! It's been around for a while and I've 

              tried it a couple times on the ends of my hair, but never my whole head. Maybe  

              after the wedding I can try something a little bolder ;)

Girls engagement party!

             I really couldn't ask for better friends. My engagement celebration tonight was 
            amazing!! Strawberry cupcakes and champagne...Mmmmm!! So far it's been a ton
            of fun and so surreal!! Crazy! But I am truly blessed.
             

Vacation week

                                  This has been the best week ever! From beach camping and Six                                     

                                  Flags to an amazing proposal... I really couldn't ask for anything

                                  better. I have such great friends... and the fiance isn't too bad 

                                  either. I think we've set our date for October 20th so these next 

                                  couple months will be pretty crazy and I will be blogging about it 

                                  all along the way!

My week in photos

             I've been so busy lately! Work has been crazy just trying to fit all of my lovely
             hair patrons in before I leave for a week long vacation tomorrow. I'm in
             desperate need of relaxation and mind decluttering! This week has had some fun    
             moments though, from attending a friend's wedding rehearsal dinner to hanging
             out with my Origins family...my favorite part of the week! 

             So since we'll be camping on the beach all week, I won't be updating my blog... 
             But be looking forward to some awesome DIY and beauty/fashion inspiration
             posts when I get back!!

     It's definitely time for me to clean out my closet and get some new pretty things!

Make your own lipgloss

So here's a super easy DIY lip color I wanted to share. All you need is Vaseline, a container, a small utensil for stirring, and your favorite blush or eyeshadow! Scrape out some of your blush or eyeshadow (I used my rose colored blush by Aveda) and mix it with the Vaseline.. add a little bit more until you get your desired amount of color intensity. That's it! Enjoy.

Among the many other uses for petroleum jelly, it's great for relieving or preventing cracked or chapped lips, so it makes a perfect protective lipgloss!
