Jewelry from thecurrentcustom.com -PART 1!

I wanted to do a quick "review" of some jewelry that I've purchased from The Cuurent Custom (Link!). Just a quick fyi... I purchased all 3 items last summer. I believe the first item that I bought was the 24" Sterling Silver Link Chain Necklace. A little back story...I started watching Lorraine (thecurrentboobies on youtube) last summer and she would always be wearing these chains. I thought they really went well with anything and really liked the style. I do remember shipping taking a while but the store is in Florida so - understood. I can honestly say that I've worn this chain at least once, if not twice a week since I received it!
There I am, just the other day. I took this picture when I got home from work (top by Express).
After receiving the chain, I decided to buy some other items that had caught my eye...

My favorite Lip Combinations of the moment

Just thought I'd share some of my favorite lip combinations and show some products that I use all the time and think are worth the money.

This is Rimmel lipstick in Airy Fairy and NYX lipgloss in Beige, which is not a beige color at all but rather a neutral pink. This is my top one, go-to lip that I have on all the time, especially for work. It looks great with any eye shadow combo and is very soft and cute.







Nude lip pencil by Maybelline and Soft Nude lipstick by Revlon. This is my "nude" lip. I can't do myht by MAC or any of its twins. They just don't look good on me. This combination, on the other hand, still gives me the nude lip look but it doesn't completely wash off my lips, which is nice.



That's all! Hope you enjoyed and please feel free to leave me your favorite lip combinations in the comments.



This weekend in a nutshell (w/ small haul)

Because we all need yet another body spray and lotion....and a few other things too :)
Started off my morning eating homemade pancakes (no clue why they came out so weird-looking), spread some nutella on them and had some coffee...mmmmhhhhhh.
My boyfriend and I hit some new shopping locations and I scored some very cute things that I will show you all below.



 Pink (and a bit obnoxious) hoodie from H&M. I got this in a size 6, which is a bit bigger that I would normally, because I want it to be a comfy thing that I throw on when it's cold and I'm going to class at night.
Pink with black polka dots scarf: completely unnecessary but cute enough to add to the collection.. and less that $7!


I found this really cute shirt at Nordstrom Rack for $9.99. I really enjoy this time a year when everything with short sleeves is on sale but it's still hot enought (and will be hot for a while) where I will get a lot of use out of cute tops like this one.
I'm not even thinking about buying witer jackets or wool sweater yet. No, thanks.

Finally, I stopped by Bath & Body Works and picked up things in two of my favorite scents: Dark Kiss and Twilight Woods. I hadn't seen these shimmery body sparys before and thought... why not? I do have a lot of body sprays already but these...well these have shimmer in them ok? :p
I also picked up a Mentha-Lip treatment (not shown) in the cinnamint scent which surprisingly I enjoy very much.

I will leave you off with a picture of me, while shopping.
I'm wearing a Target dress (bought back in May), Steve Madden green wedges and G by Guess handbag. Oh I almost forgot my ultra expensive $8 sunglasses by Old Navy.
Hope your week starts off great. My fall semester starts this week so, not looking forward to it.
See you on the next post!
