July 2012 Favorites

Here are my July Favorites! These products have been used in my go to look this month.

MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack -

I have been loving this eyeliner this month. I've been doing a winged liner about 2-3 days a week this month. Which is a lot for me since I used to only do it once in awhile.

Urban Decay Eyeshadows in Foxy, Bootycall, and Tease -

In addition to my winged eyeliner, I've been loving my Urban Decay Naked2 Palette. My go to look inlcudes Foxy all over the lid, Bootycall as a highlight under my brow and in my inner corner, and Tease in the crease.

Revlon Lip Butter in Lollipop, Revlon Lipstick in Soft Nude, Rimmel Lipstick in Airy Fairy -

I've been interchanging these lipsticks this month. I think all three of these lipsticks look good with simple eyeshadows and a black winged eyeliner. I wear the lollipop shade when I'm feeling a little more daring.

What have you been loving this month?

Spencer Hastings' Watch (Pretty Little Liars)

I've been watching Pretty Little Liars since the very beginning. After watching last nights episode, I decided that my next watch purchase would be Spencer's watch!

 

 

However, I wasn't expecting this watch to be so expensive! Based on my research, this watch is made by Cartier. I believe it's the TANK AMÉRICAINE WATCH,
SMALL MODEL which is $10,200.

Here are some cheaper alternatives that I found:

Coach Carlisle Strap Watch in Black ($258)

Seiko Solar Black Croc Embossed Leather Strap Watch 16 mm ($215)

Kate Spade New York 'Cooper' Leather Strap Watch ($195)

Seiko® Womens Solar Black Leather Watch ($140)

Fossil Black Embossed-Strap Dress Watch ($75)

Peugeot® Gold-Tone Mother-of-Pearl Leather Watch ($72)

Precision by Gruen Two Tone Leather Watch ($29.99)

Target's Women's Paul Du Pree Quartz White Dial Watch With Black Leather Strap ($24.99)





My favorites are the Coach, Kate Spade, and Peugeot versions.

Shoes, Shoes, Shoes

I think you can never have enough shoes! Shoes are my items of choice to splurge money on. Here are some gems that I found online that I seriously want to add to my shoe collection.

Coach Leticia Heel ($188)

Suprisingly I do not own a pair of plain black pumps. The black pumps I do own have either buttons or studs on them. This look like they wouldn't be too high, so I could wear them without my feet killing me!

Sperry Top-Sider Angelfish Boat Shoes ($80)

I have wanted boat shoes for about a year and a half now. They are so cute! I will eventually allow my self to buy them. I usually talk my self out of them because of the price tag.

BCBGeneration Embers Flats ($39.99)

These are so cute! I love that these are simple but with a little something extra. I usually don't like patent/shiny material, however it works with this shoe. I also love the bow!

Steven by Steve Madden Riskey Leather Booties ($179.99)


I am in love! Boots are definitely my favorite type of shoe to wear. I don't own any like this pair which makes me want them so bad. They come in black and brown, however I think the brown would go with more of my clothing choices.



Women's Mossimo® Katherine Harness Boot ($59.99)


These are knockoffs of the Frye 12R boots that I have been drooling over for the past year. However, for $200+ I can't splurge on them. These babies look almost exactly the same as the higher price tag version. These come in black and brown. For the price tag, I could get both and still save some money! Target states on their website that these are made with geniune leather.

June 2012 Favorites

I've decided to break my monthly favorites, haul, and empties into individual blog posts. Here are my June Favorites!

MAC Tres Cheek Blushes (Lovecloud, Peony Petal, and Full of Joy) - I am in love with these blushes. These are perfect for spring and summer. I've mentioned Lovecloud and Full of Joy in my May Favorites and Peony Petal in my June Haul. These blushes are beautiful. If you can get your hands on these, I highly recommend them.



MAC False Lashes Mascara - This has been my favorite mascara since I bought it a few months ago. I will be repurchasing this when it runs out. I used to only use drugstore mascara, but that's changed since I found this. This is the only MAC mascara I'ved used, so I'm not sure how it compares to their other formulas.



Urban Decay Naked & Naked2 Palettes - I'm so glad I bought these. At first, I didn't think that I would need to own both. However I think if you can afford both and want both, go for it! Here are some combinations that I've been loving:



Chanel Earrings - I've been wearing these a lot this month. I own two pairs, however this is the smaller of the two. Aren't they pretty? Unfortunately one of the stones fell out, so I want to eventually buy another pair.





Daisy Fuentes Glasses - Usually I only wear my glasses during class when I need to take notes, however I've been wearing them a lot more this month. I can see without them, however I've been wearing them during class, when I'm on the computer, and when I'm reading.


Songs - There have been three songs that I have been OBSESSED with this month. They are: Even If It Breaks Your Heart by Eli Young Band, You Don't Know Your Beautiful by One Direction, and Angel Eyes by Love and Theft.

What have you been loving this month?
