Swarovski Cross Pendant Gift

I absolutely adore this Swarovski cross necklace that I received from my hubby for no particular reason or occasion. I love getting little trinkets like this to lift up my spirits on days where I do not feel too well. And even though his simple care is all I need, a little unexpected present is always appreciated.

 

So thank you honey, I love it :)

Beauty Tip # 5: Face Masks

 

Facial are one of the most important procedures to have when wanting to have a gorgeous, luminous, and young looking skin. It is my belief that facials should be part of every woman's top priorities and followed through properly. I make sure to have a cleansing facial every month, and maintain my skin as best as I can by doing weekly mini face peels, detoxes and/or pore cleansing. By keeping your skin cleared of all daily impurities you can boost your anti-aging speed and overall health and beauty of your skin. There are countless spa all throughout the country, and with today's leading technology inventions and at-home spa-like treatments there is truly no limit to all the wonders that we can do to keep our skin looking fresh, young, and glorious.

Fashion Icon Of The Month - Kate Beckinsale

Kate Beckinsale is smart, beautiful, talented and very sexy. An actress that is gorgeous both inside and out, which is why she rightfully holds this month's iconic title.

Drape Textured Coat

 

Nothing better than a designer sweatercoat to keep you warm on those early spring crisp nights on the town. Always stylish and flattering whether you're wearing a simple jeans and a t-shirt or a cute dress. And the cream colored, wrap around, and belt details on this particular one makes it that much nicer and sexier to wear on a romantic dinner date with your loved one...

 

This pictured Oasis textured wrap coat drape is a perfect choice.

Carrie's Coat

 

Like many of you, I have spent countless hours watching Sex and the City episodes trying to wrap my head around the glorious world of fashion that was featured on the show. There is no doubt that the show's stylist: Patricia Field, is an absolute genius when it comes to fashion and style. And this particular ensemble worn by Carrie during that last episodes of the show is one of my all time favorites, it is absolutely gorgeous from head to toe!

Happiness...

Sometimes I wonder what I could do to be richer, to be successful, to be thinner, stronger, faster, but more importantly I always want to be happier. I long for days that I can rest my head and know that everything is alright. That everyone I love is close to me, happy and healthy. I often think of ways to make myself better in aspects of my life, sadly I almost never come through with my hopes and dreams. For some reason, there is always something setting me back, and today I have finally found what the is: ME! There is nothing and no one in this world that could cause the delay of the realization of my dreams, I am the CEO of my own life and it is far time that I take things into my own hands and fix all negative parts of my life. It sounds impossible at first, but it is a challenge I am willing to take no matter what! From this moment on I will keep a public journal of my deepest hopes and dreams, and record all of my actions and work towards the achievement of my goals. This time I will push myself harder, and truly fight for my happiness. This is not to say that I am extremely depressed and unhappy, rather that I am not satisfied with certain aspects of my life, and will do whatever it takes to have a GREAT life. A life that I share with the love of my life, our families, and hopefully and family of our own someday soon. I pledge to make every day better than yesterday!

Dior Airflash

Advertised as an ultra-light foundation that delivers an airbrushed effect with precision and ease Dior's Airflash foundation is a jewel amongst the sea of foundations available on the market today.

 

Besides the big selling factor that it is very convenient for those of us who are always on the run and have minimum time to spend every morning doing our makeup, this spray on and buff with a flat foundation brush alternative is a given. You can also easily customize your coverage by choosing to apply straight from the can for a lighter finish, or with a Kabuki brush for fuller coverage.

 

It has mother of pearl pigments that help to even skintone and diminish the appearance of skin irregularities and fine lines, leaving your skin glowing with optimal radiance.

 

In my opinion it is definitely worth a try, and I personally prefer to wear this on vacation due to its lighter finish and illuminating aspects.
