The Saturday Seven 10/27/12

1. Mood: Drained. Like most people, I have a lot going on in almost every aspect of my life right now and I feel emotionally, mentally and physically drained. But life goes on and I just have to keep going.
2. Substitute Question: Favorite tv show? I don't have one specific favorite. I DVR a lot of shows like CSI, NCIS, The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, The Walking Dead, The Mentalist, Animal Practice...and watch them when I have some free time or when I'm cleaning/doing laundry.
3. Product(s) I'm adding to my wish list: Any type of storage containers for makeup like small baskets, brush holders, cubes etc. I like the acrylic drawers that everyone talks about but they're not super practical for me. So I'll be on the lookout for some of those products during my trip to Target later. :)
5. Scent of the week: Kim Kardashian Gold
6. Favorite song of the moment: Invincible-MGK  


7. A sprinkle of randomness: I was catching up on YT videos this morning and watched the first two videos of pinksofoxy's Less Stuff, Less Stress! series which inspired me to start decluttering some of my makeup storage. Yikes! What a project! I definitely need to work on better organizing everything. One more thing to add to this weekend's list of things to do!

The contents of just one of my storage containers...I'm in trouble!

Have a fun & fabulous weekend!!!

The Saturday Seven 10/20/12

1. Mood: Aggravated...There is always too much to do and not enough time. My weekends have been flying by and the work weeks have been stressful. I was thinking about how much time and energy I put into work but how little time and energy I have left for my family/friends. It's so sad.
2. Substitute Question: What would you do with a million dollars? I would put half away into a savings account. Then I would use the remaining money for a bigger house and a new car. Hey, one can dream! :)
3. Product(s) I'm adding to my wish list: This is nothing fancy but I need bobby pins. I go through them like it's nobody's business! I was also scouting out some fragrances in Sephora the other night and really like Too Too Pretty by Betsey Johnson and Boyfriend. I've been really obsessed with powders lately too. I would love to get the full size of Benefit's Hello Flawless!.
5. Scent of the week: Dior Eau Sensuelle   I have been using the sample from the Dior Beauty Insider Reward.
6. Favorite song of the moment: Don't Wake Me Up by Chris Brown   I like the upbeat dance feel of the song. Plus who isn't in awe of his comeback?! Kinda crazy...

7. A sprinkle of randomness: I have a cold but am trying not to "waste" the whole day resting. I hope to film a tag video today too! But for now, I'm watching the Pioneer Woman on Food Network. 



Hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!

The Saturday Seven 10/13/12

1. Mood: I would say okay. My mood is okay. Lol! I have a lot to get done but nothing's been accomplished and I'm okay with that. I'm freezing at the moment and I'm okay. It's the weekend and I'm hella okay with that! ;)
2. Substitute Question: What is one thing I wish I could change about my hair? Only one? I wish my hair was easier to color. I have black hair which is almost impossible to color anything other than some shade of black. I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was dye my hair...strange. I used a semi-permanent color hoping for reddish highlights and gray coverage. After twenty minutes, even though the box said not to exceed fifteen, I was left with a stained red scalp and black hair. I guess we always want what we can't have!
3. Product(s) I'm adding to my wish list: The Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush set from Sephora, a YSL eyeliner and the Lorac 3D Liquid Lustre. All of these are on my list for the Sephora Friends and Family sale which I am patiently waiting for.
5. Scent of the week: Girlfriend by Justin Bieber
6. Favorite song of the moment: Beauty And A Beat by Justin Bieber ft. Nicki Minaj   This song is so fun and catchy! Don't hate! I know you want to sing along!


7. A sprinkle of randomness: I just filmed and am uploading a YouTube video! Yay!!! It's been WAY too long. Check it out! :)


Have a great weekend!!! <3

The Saturday Seven 10/6/12

1. Mood: Optimistic. Say what?! Yes, I know, very strange for me to feel optimistic but I am hoping to have a fun, destressing weekend. So therefore, my answer is optimistic. Lol!
2. One good thing from the week: My response is almost always the same and that would be that it is over! Maybe I should think of a substitute question for this one...
3. Product(s) I'm adding to my wish list: Too Too Pretty by Betsey Johnson...I've been into new fragrances recently. I guess it's time for a change. Also, any of the blushes, lipsticks and the beauty powder from the MAC Marilyn Monroe collection. This collection sold out when it launched online and all of the products I was hoping to purchase were sold out in stores as well. Grrrrrr!!! That's how they get us!
5. Scent of the week: Girlfriend by Justin Bieber Say what again?! It's a really pretty fragrance that is affordable. So I decided to redeem a Sephora gift card and purchase it. Plus the packaging  is fabulous! 


6. Favorite song of the moment: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together by Taylor Swift   It's a catchy little tune that gets embedded in my brain cells every single time I hear it. I really like the positive message for girls. If this song came out 15 years ago, I would have probably declared it my personal anthem. In the video, Taylor's band is wearing these funky animal costumes...I'm trying to devise a plan to coerce a certain friend of mine to wear one of those. Lol!!!


7. A sprinkle of randomness: To shop or not to shop? That is the question. I am debating whether or not to run up to the mall this morning for some power shopping. I should really quit procrastinating and get important things done. We'll see what happens!



What are you doing this weekend? Have fun!!! :)
