An Unexpected Trip to the Mall...
Took a random trip recently to one of my favorite malls with my sister....South Coast Plaza. And I found this adorable rustic orange colored pleated shorts along the way. I know it looks like a micro-mini, but they're actually extremely comfortable shorts with an elastic waistband (always perfect for my non-stop food binging ;P). I was heavily debating on purchasing these because I'm not usually trendy person. My style is more casual and girly.
To buy or not to buy?.....Bought! The sister was the one that gave me the extra nudge to get it. Thanks sis! I absolutely <3 them!
After I saw these shorts at H&M I knew that I had to have them! I knew exactly how I wanted to wear it too...keeping it casual by pairing it with a plain white v-neck shirt like the one I wore in this picture, brown wedges, a long antique gold necklace, and other jewelry accessories. Along with my trusty large mustard yellow messenger bag to really keep with the upcoming fall color scheme. I'm 5"3 and usually wear XS, S, and 26. In H&M sizes, I usually fit a 2 or 4. And I have a very unusual body type with extremely long legs and a short torso. I also tend to have more of an apple shape even though I'm petite. So if you're similar to me in size, I'd recommend nabbing the small like I did. Hope you all like these shorts as much as I do...and please don't hesitate to give me your feedback. :)

NYX Makeup Haul
A rather late posting of a makeup haul I had awhile back. I just realized I never posted these goodies...enjoy!
The first picture is a haul of eyeshadow palettes, single eyeshadows, lipsticks, and nail polishes. I totally love the palettes and it's mostly shimmery neutrals that go perfect for everyday looks. The single eyeshadows are also more neutrals I picked up. I absolutely love the eyeshadows, for the price, they're totally worth it. The same goes for the lipsticks. It isn't drying at all and very saturated in color. As for the nail polishes, I loved the colors, but after a few months, the polish started thickening...I don't know if this means I use it like crazy or what...:/
The next image are of the NYX eyeshadow bases and jumbo stick eyeliner pencils. The eyeshadow bases weren't really to my liking...I feel like it wasn't a very good eyeshadow primer...but the eyeliner pencils were amazing! The application was smooth and it came in a great selection of bright and bold hues. Perfect to play around with color for this summer! :D
The last image is of a NYX brush set. I wanted to give these brushes a try and I already own MAC, Sephora, and Sigma brushes. Unfortunately, these babies which were totally on sale at Hautelook weren't up to my standards for makeup brushes. Don't get me wrong, the brush hair was very soft, but my MAJOR problem was the shedding. It's my total pet peeve when brushes shed...I hate how it leaves little hairs on your face....and for the real retail price of around $100, it's not worth it for something that sheds like crazy.
Anyway, that's all I have in my haul and I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! :D
