Review: Avon Perfect Brow Gel in Dark Brown
Hello beauties! I’m a big fan of brow gels. They add that finishing touch to powder or pencil filled brows, and are also great to use alone in a pinch! When I noticed the Avon Perfect Brow Gel on sale a little while ago, I decided to pick one up and give it a try. First of all, I’d like…
Bedroom Christmas Decor: 2015 Edition
Hello loves! It’s already been two weeks since I decorated my room for the Christmas season (yes I got really excited!).

OOTD: Faux-Leather & Leopard Print
Hello loves! Fall is in full swing and I felt like digging my faux-leather skirt out of my closet. I’ve had this skirt for almost two years, but haven’t worn it often because it was just a tad tight on me. I’ve actually lost a bit of weight since January and it fits much better!! I’ve shown this skirt…
