Planner and Decor Haul

So, I have done some (meaning way too much) shopping recently, and I thought it might be fun to let you all in on some of the purchases I have made that are slightly atypical for me!  Usually when I shop I am focused on buying obnoxious amounts of clothing and makeup which I most certainly do not need.  Instead, I have recently been purchasing obnoxious amounts of room decor and planner accessories, that I also do not need!
Along with the clothing and makeup...
Good trade off right?

Target
The first store I hit up (twice actually) was Target.  You guys, that dollar section at the front of the store gets me every time! It is like a vortex that slowly sucks you in until you are buying fairy wands and bowls with straws and believing that these things have completely legitimate purposes!

A bought quite a few things from that dollar section on this trip, including: Chevron Burlap ribbon, a bronze cut out candle holder, a metal bucket, and polka dot coasters!


The burlap I have used as a runner on my bookshelf, under the candle holder!  To be a dollar each, they have made very cute fall (and possibly beyond) decorations!


The coasters I saw the first time I was in Target, carried them around, and then changed my mind because I didn't think I needed them.  When I got home I noticed the water rings on my bedside table... therefore coasters were purchased.
The bucket has yet to find a place or a purpose, but it's cute!

I also ended up buying a few random things, which consequently, were the only things bought out of the dollar section!

I bought two tank tops that can be worn in the Summer, or layered in the Fall, as well as a gap shoulder shirt that I have been loving!  All of which were on sale, the only way I like things!
Finally, I also bought a Rimmel Matte Kate Lipstick in Rosetto

Michael's
I truly love this store...  


This first things I bought, which I plan to use to decorate my planner!
There were so many to choose from, but I finally decided on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Mickey Christmas Sticker books!
See the Mickey one in the middle?  I plan to use those during the week we go to Disney!
Planner Stickers on Etsy are crazy expensive, and you don't have to have those to make your planner cute!

In the decorating department I bought a "B", because I am the epitome of white girl, and it was $1.50

My random purchases from this store included blank cards that were on sale, because I'm a horrible person and still haven't written thank you notes for graduation presents, and an adorable glass cup!

Walmart
For some reason, my Walmart has had crazy sales on some furniture items recently!

My room is crazy dim, and I have been wanting to buy a lamp for a while, but have just never gotten around to it.  I was going through the sale section and found this 5'11" silver lamp (which I put together myself) for $5!  To be a cheap Walmart lamp, it helps the lighting in my room tremendously.

I also bought Candy corn to out in a dish in my room as decoration, because it tastes like sugary wax and I don't recommend eating...

I am so incredibly in love with this Etsy shop, I just placed my third order this week, and my second ever was within the past month! 
My planner is an addiction which I just can not overcome...
But do I really want to?


In the second order I placed I bought: Disney Countdown Stickers(middle), 50 random punches(bottom), a pocket and washi planner kit(top left), a Christmas punches and washi planner kit(top right) and a random washi sample card(top middle), and a sticker sample gift from her(right middle)!

I placed my third order through a crazy Facebook sale she was having.  I ordered a Cupcake/washi/sticker planner kit, and Halloween washi tape, which I haven't received yet to take a picture of!

If you would like to see my first order ever from this shop check out this post!

And that is basically all I have bought!
Though I shop on the cheap, I have done entirely too much of it recently and I need to stop...  But I'm so excited about all I have gotten, and definetly suggest checking these things out!

Christmas Decorations

I decorated my dorm prior to Thanksgiving so we would be able to have the decorations up for quite a while before going home.  My classes ended the first week in December, so there wouldn't have been a point to decorating after!  After coming home for Christmas break I simply decorated my room at home with the decorations I had at school, so I thought it would be fun to show you both! Dorm This is where all of the main decorations in the room were.  We already had the lights up so we simply hung icicles and a bow from them.  We placed clings on the window the said "Let it Snow."  On the windowsill we sat my fiberoptic tree in the middle, and then added little knick knacks all around, which you can't see well because of the weird lighting... I swear I didn't take this in a dark room, but the combination of backlighting from outside, the string lights, and the tree, it all just messed with my camera. Here closer up picture of the tree and the things...

Dorm Life VoxBox

I got another VoxBox from Influenster!  This is a company that sends complementary products to a group of people in exchange for reviews and posts about them.  So this is sponsored in a way, but all opinions are 100% true and my own!  If you want to see allllll of my sponsored posts then check out my Instagram , because they are coming!  I am @bethanyallen15. This is called the #DormLife VoxBox and it is themed around all the different kinds of things a college girl might want or need! Look at all of the stuff in this box!  It is packed to the brim, and with a large variety of things, so let's get into it. This is the Not Your Mother's Naturals Tapioca and Rice Dry Shampoo.  I loooove dry shampoo and use it on the daily, but personally, I am very loyal to Batiste brand.  I have tried a couple others and not really been impressed, but Not Your Mother's is usually a very nice brand, so I was super excited to give this a shot. ...

Disney 2017: Day 7

8:20 a.m. Off to Magic Kingdom!   Instead of going through the whole hassle of the ferry boat this morning we decided to park at Grand Floridian (since we have dining reservations tonight), and ride the monorail into... The Magic Kingdom!  After last night we are all a little wiped out and a bit out of heart, but we are trying to buck up and put ourselves in a better mood! Today I am wearing a tank top from Target that we had custom printed to be matching family shirts! Mine is Tink, my brothers says Pan, dad is Hook and my mom (who's name is Wendy) says Wendy Darling! I am also wearing athletic shorts from Walmart, my FitBit and Magic band, and my hair in a Tinkerbell bun with Mickey ears from Jane/Etsy. 10:00 a.m. We've only been here about an hour and we have already Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin, and Ariel! The Ariel ride is super cute!  At this point it tips you back so you can see Ariel above you and it looks as if you are goin...
