Daisy Days

Spring Hauling: F21, Target, and Macy's

Hello my lovely daisies!~
I decided to do some shopping today to relax after taking the ACT ^_^
Today wasn't one of  those plentiful shopping days, but I did find some cute items
Let's get started, shall we?

Macy's

At Macy's I picked up this Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Perfume set.
I had smelled the Green Tea and Honeysuckle Scent before, and I had fallen in love. I was looking to pick up the full size of that scent, but the counter did not have it in stock. My eyes fell on this set and I immediately wanted to try this out. All the scents are really lovely, but my favorite is still the Green Tea and Honeysuckle. For only $25, you get four .5 fl. ounce bottles.

Target

I wanted to get some new nail polishes for spring, so I stopped by one of my favorite stores: Target. 

First I picked up Watermelon by Essie

It is a beautiful bright pink-not hot pink, but a more of a light berry-ish color

       

                                                                                         

 Next up, Go Ginza by Essie 

It is a lovely lilac color. It has hints of a light pink.

I used to have Lilacism by Essie as well, but that is more of a purple color, and has more of a grey base, while this color has more of a white base, if you know what I mean!

Here I have L'Oreal's Smell the Roses 330. I saw this on clearance for 47 cents!? So I had to pick this up. It is a pretty nude-ish pink that is more on the darker side, so I think this might be a pretty color for painting my toes.

Finally I picked up a top coat. this is Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in 110 Clearly Quick.

I was looking to pick up Seche Vite, but that was out of stock. So I returned to one of my old time favorites for a quick drying, inexpensive top coat. 

F21

I picked up this beautiful cream crop top. It is really versatile, either paired with high waisted shorts or skater skirts. 

Next, I picked up this muscle tank that totally brought out the nerd in me. 

It is the famous quote from Shakespeare's Hamlet beginning "To be or not to be"

I thought this would be an easy, casual top to wear on those hot summer/spring days with maybe a bandeau underneath.

Finally I picked up this cute dainty necklace. I am in love with wearing simple necklaces, as they are really casual and look adorable with every outfit without overpowering the look. 

That's all for now! What have you picked up recently? Comment below!

Until next time!~ XOXO

Wearing Spring Trends: Pastels

Hello lovelies!~
So this is a start of my spring trends series where I find some wearable trends that are currently in this spring 2014.
To start it off, I'm  going to start with a trend that I wear regardless if it is "in" or not.
Pastels! 
I already love this trend as for some reason, I am strangely attracted to pastel shades.
Here are my tips on wearing this trend.

1. Do not overdue it! Keep it to around 2-3 pieces of pastels, as seen above, I only used two pastels.
2. White is lovely with pastels, it really contrasts well with the pastels and brightens up your outfit!
3. If you aren't a huge light and girly color wearer, I suggest maybe going for some pastel nail polish or jewelry.
4. Color block! If you aren't afraid of jumping on this trend train, color blocking is a bold and fun way to wear this trend.
5. With pastels you can either go girly with lace, frills, peter pan collars, etc.
or even edgy with cleaner cuts; you don't need those frills!
6. If this isn't really your trend, try a neutralish base; white jeans, faded denim, black blazer, etc!
7. Gold jewelry really stands out against the pastel shades, while silver blends in more and is a softer look!

That's all for now! Comment below what you think of this trend, and any suggestions that you have for wearing pastels!
Until next time~ XOXO

OOTD

Hey everyone! I'm back with another OOTD! By the way, tell me how you like these:) 

Anywayyys...

Today I felt like wearing a super girly outfit that is totally my style. 

So since it is still a little chilly here in the Midwest, I wore a cropped sweater over a skater dress of mine as well as knee high socks under boots. Tell me what you think of this outfit; I love hearing all your feedback!

Until next time!~XOXO

            Where things are from:

Dress: Kohls

Sweater: Kohls

Necklace: F21

Socks: Target

Boots: Carlos by Carlos Santana

OOTD

Hey everyone~ I thought I'd show you my outfit of today. 

I really wanted to be comfy today, so I threw on a pair of jeggings and combat boots. The edgy-ness of the combat boots contrasts well with the girlyness of this sequined top with chiffon in the back. This top also has two layers, which adds some very nice dimension. To finish it off, I decided to pair the top with a long necklace that balances well with the nude color!

Top: Express

Jeans: Express

Shoes: Target

Necklace: F21

Until next time! XOXO

Spring Beauty Routine

Hey everyone!
I'm back with a spring beauty routine!
Let's get started~

1. Cleansing
Right now I'm using the Apricot Acne scrub by St. Ives. I love it! It smells delish and is great for exfoliating! Also, around three times a week I take out my Clarisonic. I really recommend you guys to try it out! It's great for deep cleansing, and it keeps my acne down.

2. Moisturizing
This is perhaps the most important of them all!
After washing my face/taking a shower, I will take out a cotton pad, pour some of my Shiseido softener/toner on it, and wipe down my face.
Next, I will moisturize with my Neutrogena Hydro Boost. I love this! It is so moisturizing, as well as refreshing and light on my skin.
As for sunscreen, I use my favorite by Sheiseido. I currently am using the 38 SPF version.
For lips, I use some of my Nivea lip butter.

3. Makeup
I'll be honest-I don't wear a full face of makeup most days, so I will split up my makeup here into two groups: the basic and basic +

Basic everyday:
After moisturizing, I will basically swipe on some copper/brown eyeliner, highlight the inner corners of my eyes with a slightly shimmery white eyeshadow (mine is currently from a Lancome palette, but any kind that you prefer would work!), and apply some mascara.
Aand that's it. Natural, simple, and perfect for school.

Basic +:
On those days where I do want to wear a little more makeup here is what I do as well as what I did above.
Face Products: I rarely use foundation, so I usually opt for a BB cream. I'm currently using a Korean brand, but I do recommend the Maybelline BB cream! Then, I set it with the Revlon Colorstay powder and a kabuki brush!
Blush: Maybelline Bouncy Blush in Peach Satin for that sun kissed glow
Eyeliner: Sometimes I will switch out the copper pencil liner for a black liquid liner. I'm currently using the Line Stiletto by Maybelline, although it's not really the best, so I am looking for a new eyeliner! Recommendations?
Then finally, I'll choose a lip product that fits my mood of the day, but right now, I am loving the Peach Kiss flavor of Baby Lips!!

4. Finishing Touches
My favorite fragrance for spring is Princess by Vera Wang.
I use this practically everyday! It's a really girly and fun scent- which I absolutely love!
As for nail polish, I love Essie (my favorite brand)'s bright pink polishes as well as their lavender shades!

I hope you enjoyed my quick spring beauty routine! If you have any suggestions comment below, and make my day! Until next time~ XOXO
