Hard Candy Cheeky Tints

I was recently sent over some Hard Candy Cheeky Tints to check out. Cheeky Tints are a water-light gel blush that give you a natural flush to your cheeks. What I love most is that the color really lasts all day long. 

I was sent Geisha, Surfer Babe, and Goddess. Now I have to admit, when I looked at these colors I was extremely nervous. They seemed so dark and bold...how would they look on my rather pale and slightly olive skin tone? Actually, not bad at all! The colors blended in super easy and really worked with my natural coloring.

First I tried Goddess. This color had me the most nervous because it looked quite dark when it came out of the tube. No need to be concerned though...it blended in for a nice summery glow. I actually think this shade was my favorite of the three.

Next I moved on to Surfer Babe. Adding a slight hint of pink to my cheeks gave my face some life. It was pinch your cheeks pink perfection!

Finally, I tested out Geisha. This shade was slightly red and very romantic. Perfect for a night out with your someone special...dare I say, Valentine?

The Hard Candy Cheeky Tints line as six shades in all, and I think I need to get the other three to try! The best part is that they are only $6 at your local Walmart.

Shopping Roundup

The weekend is here, and I couldn't be happier. Tomorrow we're heading to Jack's Wife Freda for breakfast, then off to the Museum at FIT...on Sunday we're heading to our favorite theater, Nitehawk Cinema, to see The Hateful Eight. All in all I'd say it's going to be a fun filled weekend. Maybe if I have some time I'll do some shopping as well. Check out all the amazing sales going on!

Best Dressed- SAG Awards 2016

Last night the SAG Awards were on. Even though I missed the award show, I just had to check out what our favorite celebs were styling on the red carpet. Below are my favorite looks from the night. 

Two of my favorites: Rachel McAdams and Ellie Saab. The two of them together equals absolute perfection!

Naomi Watts looks like a dream in this Burberry shade of blue.

The sparkle, the print, and the colors in this Louis Vuitton...well done Alicia Vikander.

I was actually surprised to see Sofia Vergara in something that didn't have a mermaid shape to it. This pink Vera Wang gown looked flawless on her!

What looks from the red carpet were your favorites?

Crimping My Style

As many of you know, Paris Fashion Week is in full swing. As sad as I am that I'm not there, there is one thing from the shows made me quite happy. At the Schiaparelli Spring 2016 Couture show the models were rocking some serious crimped hair(!!!). Now I don't know about you, but I love crimped hair in moderation. I don't know that I'd be crimping my entire head anytime soon...but a streak here or there is so much fun. Today I thought I'd bust out my vintage crimper (it's the original crimper I used in elementary school) to add a little bit of Paris Fashion Week to my look. #crimpedhairdontcare

dress: ASOS | tights: H&M | boots: Nine West (currently on sale) | bracelet: gift

Speaking of Paris Fashion Week, are there any current styles and beauty trends that you are lusting from their runways? The rolled hair/eyeliner at Chanel, the amazing gowns at Valentino (especially this green one), the cubist polo shirts at Viktor & Rolf...let's discuss.

I'm curious, have any of you held on to a trend in hopes that it comes back in style? I think I basically want to know that am I not the only person that has still held on to their original crimper from the 80's? 

Puffy Parka

I hope you all in the northeast are staying warm and surviving this insane blizzard we are having. I seriously didn't know if we'd get the amounts they were calling for. But when they got on the news and started increasing the total amounts for the area I realized this storm meant business. The NYC area was calling for 20-30 inches and tons of blowing and drifting snow. I'm not really sure how much is currently out there...but it is a lot. And the snow drifts are nothing to laugh about. I saw people on my block in waist deep snow. All I can say is that the city better get this mess cleaned up by the time we go to work on Monday morning...or I don't know how I'll get there. Ugh!!!

I'm in the need of a new winter coat, and the blizzard outside my window has me doing some serious online browsing. Here are some of my current favorite puffy parkas.
