April Favorites

I am so excited to be doing my first ever April favorites. I have such a big amount of things I am loving this past month that I just had to share. Starting with my favorite fashion clothes and accessories. Skull this and skull that. I am loving it all. Starting with the fabulous skull bracelet I received from my amazing sister who makes/designs jewelry. This bracelet goes with anything. For a casual day out, to an evening date.    If your interested in the bracelet comment below and I will get you in touch with my sister so you guys can get a custom bracelet.
Moving on to the darling necklace. I like that its not to harsh of a skull, but has a little rock n roll to it. I bought this in a store called Bohme for $20, BUT I found it on Amazon later for half the price. You can check this hot thing here: 
        SKULL NECKLACE



*I am also loving a top I found at Buckle. It had some awesome colors to it, and the back is half cut out, so you can either wear with a bra underneath, or add a tank top which is what I do. You can find this shirt here: 
                         SKULL SHIRT



*Last of the skull items is the scarf. It is my second favorite! The pink scarf with the gold skulls is so so beautiful on. I get compliments every time I wear it :)  So I couldn't find the exact one I bought, but I found one that I think is BEAUTIFUL.  Check it out here:  SKULL SCARF










*I am also LOVING my Coach shoes. I found them at Hill Air Force Base, so I got and amazing deal. I bought the Brown and Black so I could wear them with pretty much anything. They are way cute with Jeans and would look cute with leggings also. I couldn't find these on amazon, but if you search Macy's or a big retail place you should be able to find them. 

                                      
                                       

                                      


                                          

                                                                 BEAUTY FAVORITES :)

*I love my camo makeup bag. It fits my day to day makeup and supplies I need.  *Essie nail polish in Turquoise & Caicos is a pretty mix of blue and green. You need to add two coats to get the best color. You can look at and buy it here if you love the color like I do: Essie Turquoise & Caicos
*Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre is my favorite moisturizer. I just pat in onto my face and let it soak in. I seen it while watching PixiWoo on YouTube. So I purchased it and have loved it ever since. You can pick your own up here if interested: EMBRYOLISSE
*Mac lipstick and lipgloss tend to be a favorite of mine. These two colors combined are so cute. Natural with a spark of pink. The Lipstick 'Girl Next Door' can be found here(but its pricey because the collection is over and sold out of stores): MAC Girl Next Door , and the Gloss is called 'Summer Sweatheart' can be found here: Mac Summer Sweatheart .
*Maybelline The Falsies has been a favorite for awhile now. I even did a review on this product a couple months ago. I am just in love with it. Check it out here: The Falsies
*Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation is pure delight. I normally shy away from products that have a smell to them, because they can break me out. However this does not. It has a fresh scent to it that just makes me happy every time I apply it. Only problem with this foundation is finding your true color. So if your in USA search E-bay and Amazon for your correct color because you can't buy this in stores:)
*Last is the Real Techniques Stippling Brush. It is the best brush I have found to get the foundation across my face smoothly and without creases and messes. Its here: Stippling Brush



Some other Fun odd favorites start with:

*Market Peach Candle from Bath & Body Works! Its so yummy I wish I could eat it up!



*Also love my Fishing welcome mat. It just really fits me and the hubby's lifestyle and home decor. 

















Last is FOOD favorites. 

1. People Water (awesome company)
2. TEA(loving all kinds right now)
3. Avocados(a good fat)
4. Sugar Snap Peas(yummy plain or with ranch)
5. Caramel Sauce(it is what StarBucks uses)

Christmas Gift Extravaganza
