My Kim Kardashian Shoe Dazzle Impression!

Ugh! I am having one heck of a time with my videos for some reason! I made this video several days ago, but Windows Movie Maker would continuously lock up every time I tried to edit and finalize it! So, I tried a different program that has distorted the video and made it rather grainy-looking, and I have an HD video camera! Go figure!
But, I was finally able to upload my video on my first Shoe Dazzle experience! I love, love, love my shoes and was so happy with my selection! They fit well and, aside from needing scuffing on the soles of the shoes to keep me from busting my butt, they are near perfect! I can't wait to show you guys the shoes I picked out for the month of March - they are just as awesome. A little edgier than the red heels, but so gorgeous!








Just how beautiful are they?!?!







XOXO!!

Video: My Makeup Collection & Storage

Hello, lovelies! I did an updated makeup collection and storage video. My last one was a little dated and my storage was in need of an overhaul as well. It's still not exactly the way I would like for it to be, but it's better than before! I have a vision of how I want my "makeup room" to look like and I can't find what I want to make it look that way! Maybe you all will get to see my baby steps to get to the grand finale! :)



Oh, and in even bigger news (drum roll, please) I got my shoedazzle shoes in today! They are ridiculously gorgeous! I will try to make a video review for that tomorrow. At the very least, I will post tons of pics and let you know what I think! Let me just say that the gorgeous pair of red heels = BIG LOVE!!

XOXO!!

My Foundation Routine and Concealing Very Dark Circles!

Hello, lovelies! I put together a tutorial on how I do my foundation and conceal my ridiculously dark under eye circles. Seriously, I have the worst dark circles ever! I have deep set eyes and high cheeks bones - not a good combination! I can look like a raccoon!!


Anyway, hope you find the tutorial helpful!


XOXO!!

I Gave In To The Temptation!

I took my love of shoes and my near obesession with Kim Kardashian and combined them - and what did I get? ShoeDazzle.com, baby! After a short survey and $39.95 a month, I get a gorgeous pair of shoes sent to me! And for no obligation! What a great deal, right? I got my selection of six sent to me today:

Billie


Corinna


Kendra



Tangie


Vixen


Wynn


Can you imagine the difficulty I had trying to decide?!? In the end, I chose Wynn. A girl can always use a stunning pair of red heels! Not only did I choose this particular pair because of how gorgeous they are, but for every pair bought, ShoeDazzle.com will donate 10% to WomenHeart.org to educate women on heart disease. I actually think the decision to choose these shoes was made for me! How can I not support such an amazing cause?!

I can't wait to get my new lovies in! I promise you will be the first to see them as soon as they arrive!

Are any of you members of shoedazzle.com? If so, what do you think?!

Until next time, XOXO!
