Get Ready with Me: Prom Edition!

Yes it's been a month since I've written a post, I'm well aware, but I am coming back full force with one worth waiting for!! Who doesn't want to relive prom again, and this time you can relive it with me!

A little OOTD pre-prom edition.  
The flannel shirt is from American Eagle
The shorts are Nike
The Hair and Makeup are nonexistent
The planner is my most favorite possession!

As you can see, I am putting my planner to good use.  I had planned the heck out of this weekend, mostly because I was so excited!! See all the little sticky note lists covering all other days besides prom?

Prom Festivities began that morning as I woke up at 8 a.m. (after staying up until 1 the night before prepping...) when I went to pick up Maze's boutonniere.

And then went to get my hair done!
This is what I saw when I came in and just had to share a picture of it! My best friend and I decided to get ready together, which meant taking turns getting out hair done, and then her coming back to my house to do makeup!





Snacking through the primping

Makeup!


And then Maze came :)

Giving him his boutonniere...

Getting my corsage...

Shoes!

Corsages!



With my Memaw :)

So, we had to take a redneck picture, just as a joke :)


Fixing each other and making funny faces, just like always :)

Playing Cinderella!

Let's go!

My neighbor, who is like my sister, just had a baby, so I had to go visit them at the hospital :)  

They were all joking that this could be a teen pregnancy awareness or birth control ad!

Finally, it was time to meet up with my big group of friends.

In honor of our favorite Marine History Teacher!



Such a personality picture...

Let's go eat!

Before prom I went with a group of fourteen, I repeat fourteen, people to Outback in Johnson City, so we had to meet early.  It truly could not have been more perfect, we had so much fun!

I love how the actual time at prom is such a minor detail of the day.  Our prom theme this year was "Love You Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran... do you know how that can be a prom theme? Because I still don't! From what I can figure, there were lot's of flowers, so our theme was like English Countryside maybe? They had good intentions, but a low decoration budget. We had a lot of fun though, and were the last ones to leave during the last song! 
Plus, my best friend was Prom Queen!!

After prom the same group from before prom, minus a few, went to my friend's camp up in the middle of NOWHERE to play paintball after prom.  Hear that? Paintball. In the dark. At 2 a.m. On the side of a mountain! In theory we thought it sounded really fun, the execution was a little fuzzy... We were just shooting through brush in the general area of glowsticks. Once most of us (besides Maze and my friend) ran out of ammo we had to regroup to get more.  But then decided we were bored with this and just unloaded on the two of them!  They weren't exactly happy...

After Paintball we all went back to the Bonfire to hang out.  About 4-5 a.m. everyone had slowly left or went to sleep leaving me and two of my friends.  It was then we made the horrid decision to stay up all night and watch the sunrise!  We spent the remainder of the night stoking the fire, avoiding the smoke and rain, talking out of our heads, and planning the next day!

We left my friend's camp around 7:30 in the morning to go home and sleep a couple of hours, before festivities began again!

The three of us slept like 4 hours, got up, and went to Linville Caverns with my boyfriend and his friend!


Overall, it was truly an amazing weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better one :)

Nadine West: Third Shipment

Another Nadine West bag!  This is such a fun little bag, and I have really looked forward to every one thus far! These are the Simple Sparkles "diamond" stud earrings.  Though these are very cute and I actually kinda wanted to keep them, I have too many pair that are too similar.  These did retail for $6.49 though, which is suuuuper reasonable. This is the Make a Wish necklace.  I wanted to like this based off of the name, but it just really isn't my style!  I don't feel like I can pull off a crown necklace/princess persona...  But anyway, this retails for $17.99, which I feel is a bit much for cheap jewelry. This is the Constance top.  It is like a baby pink chevron cami, and I wasn't into this really.  I have enough camis, and am not really into printed ones, so this just wasn't my style.  This retailed for $9.49, which isn't too bad Fianlly, we have the Zipped floral romper, and as you might have guessed it has a zipp...

Ipsy February + December and January Highlights!

The February bag as been the best I've gotten in a few months, to the point that I really didn't feel like the last to were interesting enough to post...  I finally even went and re-did my style profile quiz because they were beginning to seem like a waste. But it was Valentine's Day, which I love, and this one was a hit! At first I thought this was Naked as in Urban Decay, but it is actually Naked Cosmetics brand.  They are more natural cosmetics made with mica, so they are veeeery glittery.  It is a nice color with good pigmentation, but it's a loose pigment which I'm not crazy over, and you have to make sure and get the glitter spread out evenly or it looks tacky.  I have been sent this brand before, and gave it pretty low scores because I kind of wanted high end brands... Is that snobby?  Regardless, this time they sent me a loose powder blush.  Like with the eyeshadow, I find it a bit hard to use.  It is also a little dark for my sk...
