Hey Dolls!
I can't wait til you see what I just purchased!! You're going to flip!
The hubby and I are planning on buying a house and since we've been looking I'm already planning on what I want to buy for my "makeup room." I just want a room designated to all my clothes, art, fashion, and MAKEUP! One thing that popped into my head was a dress form. For y'all who don't know what a dress form is, it's like a mannequin with just a torso (typically) mainly used for people who sew. Moving along, when I told the hubs, he was like "Really, a dress form? For what?" - I don't think he understood what I was really looking for til I found it!
This is exactly what I envisioned and to think I actually FOUND it! AHHHHHHHH!!!!

Dont you just love it?!
I wanted something like this so I could hang all my jewelry on it and hang vintage things on it like broaches and stuff. I dont know, maybe I'm thinking outside the box and I'm crazy, but I'm in love and I just can't wait til I acquire things to hang on it! It's going to be FAB! For now it's going to sit in the corner of our bedroom til we buy a house and it's real use with come to play!
Oh! And here's the kicker, I purchased it for $50.00!!!!!!!!!

I also wanted to show you some things hubby and I made for our bedroom. We decided to take the cover of magazines that starred our favorite artists and frame them! So far we have 5 covers, with the exception of a Gaga photo we found that matched our decor in color. We hung them above our bed!

Another cute thing I own is this mirror! The framing around the mirror is crushed glass that someone molded together to make it look all shiny and glittery! It's above my jewelry stand and serves a great purpose! Loveee it!

This picture is in our bathroom. It just flows with the rest of our house, chic, classy, and boldly makes a statement. Yet another fave!

Saving the best for last... our fish tank! Hubby has been working really hard to get our salt water tank up and running successfully. He loves fish and has always wanted to have a salt water tank and house awesome looking fish! Here is a picture that I actually took about a half hour ago! I turned the lights on and they were all asleep (I woke some of them up). It looks kind of empty, but we really have about 11 crabs, 7 amazing fish, 1 really awesome looking shrimp and 15 teeny starfish that are growing every day (if you look to the left under the red box, which is the shadow of my tv, that white spec is a baby starfish!)! We plan to have tons more in the future, but it's difficult putting random fish in with each other as they will eat one another or get sick and die.
Hope you like some of my home!!!
Do you have any cool things in your home?!
XO!

Hey Dolls!
I went shopping. Ugh! Such a guilty pleasure! It's really my dad and my hubby's fault! If my father ever saw me upset about something, anything, he'd automatically hand me a $100.00 bill and tell me to go buy myself something! He says when he was younger my grandfather would hand him money and say the same thing if he was ever upset! He claims it worked for him every time and he was going to follow the same tradition with me! Heck! I'll take it! Haha Also, my ever so amazing hubby thinks the same thing! Boy can this man shop! He's the perfect accessory to any day out to the mall, a flea-market, or even the food store for crying out loud! He loves to buy anything and everything and when it comes to me he'll buy whatever makes me happy! I love the feeling of having two wonderful men in my life that are willing to love and care for me! Even though they care oh so much, don't misconstrue that :] I make my own money to provide for myself and fulfill my guilty pleasures they just add to it. I'm too old to take "Daddy's money" anymore, but I'm sure if I couldn't buy it for myself, he would.
So yeah, I went shopping and bought a trillion things.
I finally purchased this from BH Cosmetics! Everyone, for some time now, has been raving about it. I typically use MAC, URBAN DECAY, SEPHORA eyeshadow, and lots of others - but I havent tried these! I have heard they are very pigmented and long lasting. I have searched far and wide for any negative reviews and nothing. So I went on BH Cosmetics' website and purchased it for $18.95 with 15% off. (coupon code: wntr10 - if you plan to purchase one!) I haven't received it yet due to obnoxious weather conditions here in the states, but when I do, I'll make sure you hear all about it!
