Nadine West: May

I signed up for a new subscription service!  I know... So surprising.
This one is Nadine West; it is a clothing subscription service, but unlike many other similar services it is only $9.98 per month!  The items in the package tend to run from around $10 to $30, but if you choose to keep anything then the price of shipping will be deducted from whatever you don't return!  It also comes with a prepaid shipping label and whatever you don't like you put back in the bag it came in, cover the old shipping label, and stick it in the mail!  Easy as that!

Sorry, I couldn't wait to open it to get a really good picture...  But isn't it wrapped super cute?
When you sign up you take a style quiz picking examples of clothes and jewelry you like and how often you would like to receive them, as well as your preference on colors and patterns.  Each month you should receive at least one clothing item, as well as two or three other accessories!

They nailed my taste in earrings!  These were so nice and dainty.  They felt maybe just a *little* bit cheap, meaning they were very light, but I did not put any real wear into them so I can't speak to how well they would hold up. I was very tempted to keep them, but there was another item in here that I liked just a bit more.  These were listed at $10.99, which the shipping would almost pay for itself!

This is the "Beauty Deeply Rooted" necklace.  This was probably my least favorite item in the shipment, but it still wasn't ugly by any means!  This necklace was listed at $21.99, which I feel is a bit high for something like this, but considering I decided not to keep it it doesn't really bother me!

Now this I did keep (and please excuse my lack of shoes...).  So, this was listed as a top on their website, but you all agree this is a dress right?  I even checked on their website at the shipment history to see if maybe I was sent the wrong thing, but it is listed as a top on there as well even though the model is wearing it as a dress!  So who knows, but I like it!

The back is my favorite part though...  You definitely have to wear a bralette with it, but I think that just made it even cuter!  This was listed at $20.49.  I really didn't need a new dress... But it was just so cute!  I can't wait to wear it at the beach! 

This is the final piece they sent me, a color block t-shirt dress.  Though I loved the fit of the dress, I just wasn't a big fan of the pattern.  I really wanted to like it too, especially since it was only $12.99!  Oh well, I rated it pretty high and specified in my feedback that I liked the style but not the pattern, so maybe I'll get another one like it in the future.

Quick break for puppy cuddles!!

Overall I really liked this subscription service, so I decided to keep it for a bit longer.  We will see how the next few go!  If you would like to try it out you can enter the code "Nadine" on their website to get free shipping on your first box!

My Everyday/Travel Makeup Bag

So as I was putting together the list for makeup bag that I will have with me in the car when I go on my trip to the beach this summer, I decided that you might want to know exactly what's in there and why I bring them :) The first thing I going to show you is this awesome pallet I found in a discount makeup store: It is a "Sweet by Day, Sexy by Night" pallet. On one side it has a dark brown and a champagne shade eye shadow, a light and a dark shade of bronzer, a light and dark brown shade of lipgloss, and two small applicators. On the other it has a light shade of pink and an almost purple eye shadow, a light and dark shade of blush, a light and dark shade of pink lipgloss, and two small applicators. You can buy it at www.amazon.com/day-to-night for $5. I thought this was the most simple way to pack all that i would need! Next I'm going to show you the face products I am bringing: They are: The Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder The ELF Aloe Infus...

Winter As a College Student

Let me just tell you, there isn't a thing in the world fun about a dorm room in the winter!  On the happen chance that yours is as old as mine (pre-1960s, thank you very much) you probably have radiators too, which personally, I have very little control over.  Even on the off setting they exude so much heat that the room is stifling!  And then you open the window and snow starts blowing in... Yay Appalachian Mountains! Let's just all agree that is quite a process.  So what is one to do to combat these cold (and getting colder!) temperatures? First, I've got two B's for you (mostly because I couldn't come up with a third...)  Blankets and Bedwarmers! Let's face it, dorm rooms are tiny and your bed is the focus of the majority of decor, as well as where you will be spending a large portion of your time (yay Netflix binges!) so you need to make sure it is super cozy! Personally, I have my sheets and comforter that I sleep under every night.  ...

VoxBox: Tressemé Beauty-Full Volume

I know I don't usually post at 9 o'clock on Monday nights, but I wanted to go ahead and get this out to you all while I had time, because... I got another VoxBox! This one was the Tresemmé Reverse Your Routine box with a full sized shampoo and conditioner. This is a Volumizing system, and is reffered to as "Reverse Your Routine" because you conditioner before you shampoo... Weird right?  I have to say I was a little confused and skeptical at first. The concept is that when you put conditioner in your hair and rinse then residue is left on weighing down your hair.  My thoughts were that the residue left were the moisturizing properties and that you wouldn't want to rid yourself of all of them... It just seemed a little pointless. I have been using this combination periodically for a few weeks now, and surprisingly I actually really like it!  When I get out of the shower my hair does feel much lighter than usual.  Though it is hard to tell if I have...
