Hot Pink Ombre Manicure and So Excited!!
Last night, I decided to be a little bit fancy on my nails and use my two nail polishes that I received in my MyGlam Bag from last month and also this month. Previously, I had done a purple ombre manicure that came out much better then this one. But, I thought I would share anyways (okay, I was rushing a little bit!)
I made it easy for myself by only using two colors and mixing more of the white color as I went on.
I noticed that my kicks matched my nails a little too much at the gym today!
It does take a little bit of patience to do ombre nails. Try using some quick drying nail polish so the colors set faster and you are able to move onto the next color!
What do you think? What is your favorite ombre nail combination?
PS.
I am so excited to share that today, I am one of the lucky guest bloggers on Left brain, right brain, pug brain!!

Sparkle and Shine
I am so obsessed with this dress, it screams glamour! I am waiting for the perfect chance to wear this dress, it is absolutely gorgeous. I love the girly rosy hue of the pleated top and the sequin skirt is to die for! The open back add an extra bit of glamour. I paired them with my nude Vince Camuto studded pumps!
Now all i need is an occasion to wear this!!

July MyGlam
So, it is already August and I haven't posted my July MyGlam! Shame on me!!
Well here it goes anyways!
July's theme was Beach Beauty, how fitting with it being half way through summer!
The items in the bag were:
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil Free Lotion
I have used this sample all throughout the month of July and most of the bottle is still left!
It makes my skin feel extra moisturized and soft. It is a great moisturizer to put on before your makeup.
Circus By Andrea's Choice Nail Polish in Reverso
I had a little bit of fun with this white nail polish and created a pretty polka dot pattern on my pink nails!
The polish applied easy and was long lasting. YouTube Guru Andrea's Choice created these and I think she did a great job!!
Yes To Cucumbers: On-The-Go Facial Towelette
I love facial towelettes for nights when I am too lazy to scrub my face down (this isn't very often). These were extra moisturizing and had a great scent. They left my skin feeling clean and took off all of my eye makeup. That is always a plus!
Josie Maran: Magic Marker Lip and Cheek Stain
I love anything Josie Maran and was so excited to get this in July! It gives your lips a pretty flush of pink and also works great on your cheeks. I have had this in my purse all month long and I use it to touch up my blush throughout the day!
NuMe Hydro Punch Hydrating Conditioner
I have been using this conditioner as a deep conditioner and it has added a ton of extra shine to my hair and also leaves it feeling soft and smooth. A must for humid summer months!
My fun manicure that I did with my Circus By Andrea's Choice Nail Polish in Reverso!
1. I dotted the white nail polish onto a piece of paper.
2. Used a pencil to pick up the nail polish.
3. Dotted the white nail polish onto my nails.
4. The finished product!

Changing Spots
Lately, it seems like I am purchasing everything leopard. In fact I adore leopard, absolutely anything leopard. I have always loved wearing leopard as a neutral piece and adding fun colors to the rest of the outfit. This top features the oh so on trend open back and also a sheer strip down the front. A leopard cannot change it's spots, but you can change the way you think about leopard!

My Life is Crazy!!
But seriously though.. Lately it has been..
My poor blog, it has turned into extreme neglect and disregard and it will not happen anymore! I feel bad because I really enjoy blogging but I just haven't had enough time lately!!
You know what, it is really hard having a full-time job, being a girlfriend, and wanting to stay healthy!
Okay enough of my boring ranting, I decided I wanted to share some of my photos from the past month that I have not had any time to blog about anything because of everything else that has been going on in my life.
So here it goes...
Okay, well maybe I haven't been so busy after all. Maybe I'm just enjoying my summer! Now, I am off to Maryland for a few days for work and then officially back to blogging!!

July BirchBox
So, as you can probably already tell, things have changed a bit around here. I am working on a couple of exciting things that I can't wait to share with everyone soon!
For now, here is my July Birch Box Review!
For the month of July, Birch Box teamed up with Glamour to bring us this amazing box!
I was so excited to see it this month and the goodies inside certainly did not disappoint!!
Harvey Prince Hello Perfume
I had never heard of this perfume until now and I absolutely love the scent. Actually, my mom loved it a little more so I gave it to her! It has notes of floral and citrus notes. It is the perfect summer day scent!
Boscia BB Cream with SPF 27
I have been wanting to try a BB Cream, but I didn't want to have to splurge on a good one. I'm so happy that this month one of the items was a BB Cream! I love this so much that I have been wearing it almost every day since I got it. It feels light weight and makes your skin look flawless! I will be purchasing the full size!
Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner
Last month, MyGlam had an eyeliner pen like this one in their bag, but I am liking this one much more. It goes on so easily and won't rub off through the night. If I'm going to wear liquid eyeliner, I am going to use a pen like this one. Pens make it so much easier to apply straight lines with a winged end.
BirchBox Exclusive Earbuds
I was so excited and disappointed for these all at the same time. It was awesome to get an extra pair of earbuds for the gym but I think that BirchBox could have made the quality a little bit better. Unfortunately, the sound is so muffled in my ears that I can't stand to use them. All they can be is a back up pair in case something happens to mine.
Amika Oliphica Nourishing Mask
My hair gets dry very easily so when I saw that I was getting a deep conditioner I was so excited! But once I used it, I wasn't as excited anymore. I usually wash my hair at night and apply a deep conditioner before bed but last night when I tried this one, in the morning my hair was way too greasy. I think that if I were to use it and then style my hair immediately after it would be perfect, but this made me a little disappointed.
Amika Oliphica Hair Treatment
I used this hair oil in the morning after I styled my hair. I loved it because it tamed all of my flyaways and it wasn't heavy so my hair still had it's natural volume
I have been debating for the past couple of months whether or not to keep both BirchBox and MyGlam or to cancel one and keep one.
What do you think I should do? Keep both? Cancel one and keep one?
