Friday Fives

Hello bloggers! You made it through another week of 2014! My sincere congratulations to all of you. And myself. I made it another 7 days without slapping anyone. It's the little victories, right?

Here are some things I've been fawning over this week [and so far this month]!

1. Poshmark. I have an entire series coming to the blog, all about poshing. I'm so addicted, and I think all of you should be to! I have a few pieces listed in my closet that you can check out here.

2. Crystal Light Peach Mango Green Tea. I have been drinking this stuff like it's going out of style. It's a great "pick me up" in the morning, a "keep me going" in the late afternoon, and a "goodnight world" drink in the evening. Mis a packet with a liter of ice, and I can't complain.

And naturally, Lily had to step in on my shot. She's such a diva, I can't even. 

And now this one needs his own cameo in this post. Sheesh!

3. These NY&Co. Red Sweatpants. I've been living in these pants everyday after school: change out of my jeans and step into my sweats. They're a little too big on me and super long which make them so super comfy.

4. My Heirloom Pear Wallflower. When B&BW had their semi-annual sale, I snatched up 2 wallflowers and this scent has been in my room ever since. The scent isn't super strong, which I like, but I have it plugged in in front of my door so I'm greeted by the pleasent smell. This baby was $2 and I don't regret the purchase!

5. This picture. 3 dogs squished into a bed meant for 1. Do I need any more explaination?

What were some of your favorites from this [very snowy] first week of February?

Friday Fives #3

Because I suck and missed last week's Friday Fives [bad, Carolyn], I'm making up for the week lost and week past in this post. Double the awesomeness, awe heckie yeah.

1. Online Black Friday shopping. I'm not gonna lie, I'm a sucker for a sale, especially if it's more than 50% off. Needless to say, I've been going crazy. I've spent $60 in the past 3 days, a new, very sad, personal record.

2. Moe's is a Mexican mix between buffet, fast food, and sit down restaurants. If you haven't been to one, I recommend it. It's a very interesting experience, and soooo yummy.

3. Hard Candy Glamoflauge Concealer. I cannot rave enough. You all have to buy this concealer. It's like, 6 bucks at Walmart and it's lasted me a year; I can't believe I've almost finished it. Absolutely amazeballs for my seriously broken out skin. [I'm blaming it on the grease and fumes at work. Gag.]

4. Wanelo. I rediscovered my love for this app and I can't even at the beauty of shopping tumblr, basically. Will someone buy me my Birthday Wishlist collection please?

5. The International Delights Caramel Macchiato coffee creamer. If you saw my Sweater Weather Tag, you heard me rave about this stuff enough; I put it in my hot chocolate and it makes it taste like the Dunkin Donuts Salted Caramel one. NOMS!!

1. On Monday, I wore a button up sweater and no cardigan underneath. Why I thought it was a good idea to wear my scarlet bra under a cardigan is beyond me.

2. I drove without my permit last night. Breakin the law, one day at a time, woo.

3. Forgetting my key ring at my grandparent's house [yes, permit included], I also didn't have my debit card to buy my cart on Wetseal during the sale today. I called my Grammy for my card number. What can I say? I wasn't going to let BOGO 80% off go. 

4. My last paycheck was $25. I need a new job.

5. I completely forgot about my blog this week; BUT I caught up on YouTube things and that feels good.

1. My T-Shirt business-y thing has really been booming lately. I just hit my 100 total sales mark!

2. I hit 1,000 subscribers on YouTube. I've had 1,000 subscribers on another channel before, but that was with those horrible spam messages [I was naive, what can I say] begging for subs. These viewers are honest, genuine people I have watching me, and I feel so good about that!

3. I bought the leggings I've been telling myself to buy in all of my Friday Fives posts. Five pairs for $17.

4. I didn't overstuff myself last night. Until they brought out the apple cheesecake caramel squares. I tried. It's the thought that counts, right?

5. I'm all caught up to Glee, besides last night's episode! If you haven't seen the Cory Monteith tribute, you need to. Even if you're not a Gleek, everyone needs a good cry once in a while.

1. Finish Christmas shopping. I've got all my friend's gifts all purchased and on their way to my house, now it's all about my mom, grandparents and Secret Santa's! [Yes, I have multiple.]

2. Get my clothing situations under control. I can't see my closet floor. See my dilemma?

3. Start and finish season 6 of Gossip Girl. I'm waiting for the right rainy day!

4. Do some serious at home DIYing and get my skin back in order. I don't know what's up and I'm not happy about it.

5. Make a calendar and prerecord//prewrite//schedule videos and blog posts for the next month. I slacked hard this week. 

How was your week?

What's your favorite DIY face mask?

Have a lovely Friday!!

Friday Faves [Week #1]

Happy Friday everyone! The best day of the week is finally here, thank goodness. Today's post is a round up of my favorite and a few of my not so favorite things from this glorious October week. Although the day is not officially over yet (I have a 5.5 hr shift at work in 2.5 hours. Gr), I am beyond excited to finish up a whole 5 days of consecutive posting!!

But let's not rush through it, eh? Here are some of the highlights of my week!

1) The weather & fall foliage. 

We're at that 2 week period in the fall time in between it being scorching hot [still] and freezing cold, in between green trees and bare trees. Check out this pic I just posted to my Instagram!

To follow suit, combat boots are always a fave! There's nothing like a pair of shoes you know you can wear through a snow storm. Buuuut, I think I'll wait a while on that one.


2) Memory foam pillows. These bad boys are both a blessing and a curse; falling asleep is a breeze but waking up is a battle.

3) Pinterest. Follow me here! I've needed lots of ideas and tips for my blog and pinterest is the best way (for me) to find everything. I don't need CEOs of massive websites teaching me how to decode something, you know? I want to click on a link and come to a cutesy lifestyle blog. God bless Pinterest!

4) The Blacklist. Being the Internet junkie I have been for the past 3 or 4 years, I haven't been much of a TV watcher besides SVU and PLL. But the Blacklist premiered and The Voice got started up again with the original cast and I'm basically in a TV coma on Monday nights.

5) This blog! I can't believe I let this tresure be buried for so long. Rediscovering this bad boy and the whole bloggosphere in general has made me wonder what I did with my life before blogging and vlogging. Maybe I actually had time to do my homework.

What were your favorites of the week? Tell me in a comment!
