Holidays, MAC, Video and More!

Hey Everyone!

Well packing for move is coming along quite well. I was kind of avoiding doing the bedroom but the other day I finally got it done. There's a bunch of fragile stuff that is going to be brought over separately [one bonus of moving from parents house ...]

It's a mere 23 days till it all happens!


So I was cruising YouTube while my video uploaded and saw the XSparkage site and she had the MAC holiday collection up. Just as a heads up, I got these pictas from her page. Link with pictas.


This is the full collection


Eloquent Air Lipstick


Such Flare Lipstick


Fancy Moves and Smooth Manoeuvre Technakohls


Frozen Blue and Winterized Mineralized Eyeshadows

To find out more on the collection, and a credit to where I got the pictas is here



As Christmas draws near, there's many things I've been doing - other than packing I swear! - and that's getting xmas gifts together plus HOLiDAY ViDEO LOOKS

I'm not big on Hallowe'en things because I don't feel that what I do compares even close to what's out there. I don't mean that my holiday looks are great, just I can have more options with Christmas parties, Christmas itself and New Years. [Plus other holidays that are celebrated] I think they're a little more fun because it's sparkle, shimmer and glitter. I don't know what it is about it, I'm really not a winter fan but I love how it sparkles. The snow, ice, etc is so inspiring.

Plus the holiday outfits are so pretty.

So far I only have one look, but I am definitely open to different ideas. Send me your pictas, colours, etc. I will definitely get them in!


Anyways so I finally did my tag video.

moving stress

Hey Everyone!

So my last post was just a countdown widget. Sorry I didn't post much!

Our moving date is December 3rd and we've booked the elevator for noon. I am unbelievably stressed right now. There's so much to pack and I've barely started. What I have done is go through a ton of stuff and either trashed or given away stuff. I've used 2 boxes for soft cover books.

We've actually got a lot of stuff. His parents gave us these metallic dipped leaves for decoration, and I have a picture plus a mirror. Matt bought me a Marilyn Monroe poster from his school because he knows I like her. My dad caved and bought us the Fantom Power Pet vaccuum. My mum's lending a bunch of curtains for the place and bought us cutlery and a mattress cover. [just in case because it's a new place] My nana is giving us a bunch of towels and face cloths, possibly sheets too. We're going to her place for the typical Christmas buffet thing she does - my parents, Matt plus my aunt, uncle nd cousin - so we'll get the stuff then.

We've figured that we're probably going to have the house-warming in January because December is way too hectic. Plus Angel - my cat - is going to brought here in early January.



Now for a few photos. Makeup from yesterday and the stack of boxes - only a few are being used currently.







First of all, the trunk that most of this stuff is on is full of curtains, kitchen things and dvd's
The purple box is the vacuum - Fantom Power Pet - and on top is utencils and a muffin tray [kept it out with intention of making cupcakes soon]
Beside that is 2 Dole boxes - those are filled with books.
Everything else is empty so far.



Anyways, that's about it.

Exciting news!

It's official. Matt and I move!

Here's my countdown widget:

So excited!

Return of the Missing Blogger!

Hey People!

Yes I'm such a slacker. No, i'm not going to apologize - "it's too late to apologize, it's too late!" - because I just know it'll happen again. I really do like blogging, it's just that life takes over.

I was working and now I'm not but that's a long story in itself that I really don't want to talk about, so I'll just get to other stuff!

Recent purchases are black clothes, the new NARS face primer and NARS blush in "orgasm" .... yes I caved. Hush.


I actually did try out a few ideas that I may end up doing a video on this one because I'm so proud!










I didn't think of this myself. I was inspired by it obviously.
One of my favourite YouTube gurus has another channel for vlogs. She had very similar makeup on in this video. I am linking her here and hope she sees it :]

The video I saw:

I don't really talk about the YouTubers I watch much, but there is a select few I never miss.
I'll put their YouTube names here [vlog channel if i can]:
vintageortacky/Ghettoccino
KandeeJohnson/thekandeejohnsonshow
Sokolum79/SokolumsVlog
Nymphette415
Myeyeshadowisodd
ShadowNukks

I do watch other people's often, but those are ones i ALWAYSALWAYSALWAYS watch!



So what's new with me?

My boyfriend and I are looking at moving as soon as finances are good.


Layout of apartment.


Building itself.


Yes I did some editting so then any specific things are out of the photo. Just in case creepers are on here or there's people I really don't want to know where I live.

I can tell you one thing, I'm getting out of where I live now. Small town area. Not far out, but far enough.


Speaking of small town ...
Last year's rumours. Yes, those.
Well there was a rumour going around that I cheated on my ex. I refuse to confirm nor deny any truth to that for the main fact that he started that rumour. Now he's hearing it from other people. I think it's hilarious.
Another rumour is that my ex is leaving - actually, he told my dad. He speaks to my parents but not me. Rude much? I'm not sure where, or when but whatever. If it's true, it's true. If not .... well then.



Canada Day is on Friday. Not sure what's going on but a bunch of us talked about hanging out. I know Saturday my boyfriend and I are going to his aunt nd uncle's place for a post-Canada Day party. It's always interesting meeting your significant other's extended family.




Oh well!
Video hopefully this week and more blog another day!
