OOTD :)

This I wore last sunday to go run around and take Lola to the dog park. I love my camo pants! They are about 5 years old from Hollister and are still going strong. I know alot of people are like "Ew,camo pants!" but I really dont care. They are super comfy and I paired them with a super soft sweater I bought in the beginning of January from Delia's and some combat style boots from Charlotte Russe.

My boyfriend was busy, so he couldn't take my picture so I had to do the whole phone in the mirror trick.

DO YOU HAVE AN ITEM OF CLOTHING YOU LOVE AND DON'T CARE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK ABOUT IT?

Favorite trend for 2012 NEON



I just joined Polyvore a few days ago in order to keep up on some fashion trends. I made this collage of neons because this is my favorite trend for the summer! I am on the hunt for at least 3 neon items. Probably, not any of these specific items pictured because honestly, some of them are way out of my price range. I am,however; going to look for similar pieces. Im not exactly sure which ones to get, but don't worry, once I figure out which things Id like to wear in this trend I'll make an outfit post :)



DO YOU PLAN ON WEARING THIS TREND? IF SO WHAT PIECES ARE YOU PLANNING TO PURCHASE OR HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED?

Soap and Glory

I know there are tons of hand lotions out there and once you find the perfect one for your skin you tend to stick with it. That's how I feel about my Aveda hand relief lotion. That stuff is amazing, It lasts through at least 3 hand washings! But that is another post all in itself.
   There has been many great reviews about the Soap and Glory hand food lotion, so I put my aveda lotion on  hold for a moment, drove to my local sephora..drove back home because they didn't have it and bought the small 1.7OZ bottle of Soap and Glory hand food on sephora.com. :0)  The 1.7OZ retails for $5 US dollars

This is a creamy, thick lotion that is made from macadamia oil, shea butter and marshmallow. I had no idea what this lotion smelled like so when I saw it had marshmallow in it i was like yeah its going to smell like sugar :)

Well...it doesn't smell like sugar...I think the macadamia oil overpowers any marshmallow in there and I swear there is a hint of a flower scent mixed in. I had my boyfriend smell it and he said it smelled like flowers too. I'm not fond of flower smells but this smell is on the lighter side so I can deal with it.

Since I cut hair for a living right now, my hands are always in water,therefore; they can become dry easily. This lotion feels nice it was applied, it absorbed fast and did not feel greasy. It left my hands feeling silky smooth  but, it only lasted through one hand washing as compared to 3 from my aveda lotion. It also has a large list of ingredients and a few of them are parabens. I have only been using lotions without parabens because they are "supposed" to be bad for you (i don't know if they are, but I'm just taking a precaution). I did not look at the ingredient list prior to purchasing this lotion. 

 If you want your hands to feel silky smooth  than this is a great daily hand lotion to use.If you have a job like mine that you have to wash your hands constantly this can work for you, but you will  have to use it a little more throughout the day. As for paraben free...not so much, so if you are on the hunt for paraben free lotions than this is not the one for you...if you could give two shits less about them then go ahead and try it out. It does make your hands feel super soft. :)

LARABAR REVIEW





Last month I received a LARABAR in my January Birchbox and I have just recently decided to try it out.

This is a mini at .78 OZ. They do sell bigger ones that are 1.6OZ  that can run up to $26 US Dollars for a box of 16 .
LARABAR bars are made of whole food,some certified organic and the most ingredients used are 9.
This one is in the flavor chocolate chip cookie dough

The look of it is very organic with bits of chocolate chips,nuts and dates all mixed together.

The minis really are mini..at about an inch and a half long. For some people it is a one bite snack, I made it into two bites.
When I think about the taste of chocolate chip cookie dough  the taste that comes to my mind is milk chocolate,vanilla and brown sugar...this to me tastes like raisins with a small amount of chocolate. Not what I was expecting. Its not a bad taste but I was expecting something sweeter.  This bar is on the chewy side so it is very easy to eat,although; it can get stuck in your teeth from the gooey dates that are mixed in. I did enjoy this little treat and if you can find one to try that is sold alone it is something worth trying, but this is something that I will pass up on buying a box because I have found better tasting snack bars for way less in price.

HAVE YOU TASTED THESE BARS? IF SO, HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM?
