Guess for less


I was browsing their website, and found some really cool items that were on sale. I love shopping at guess but for some items such as earrings I wouldn't pay more than $15-20. Here are some of my fave guess items that were on sale on their website.
I really like the wallets and I think that the watch is a great buy because their watches are rarely on sale and are usually over $100.

jlo sex tape??

This is kind of a shocker to me, apparently her x husband Ojani Noa is planning on using the video of their sex life in a tell all movie. He tried to pull something like that in 2006, by trying to produce a movie titled "How I Married Jennifer Lopez: The JLo and Ojani Noa Story." He already paid $545,000 and now she's planning on suing him for $10 000. When is this guy gonna learn? He can't mess with J lo.

St.Ives Apricot Scrub Review




Product: 5 out of 5
Quality: 5 out of 5
Overall: 5 out of 5
Price/Purchase: It's less than $10 and you can buy it at Shoppers or Walmart


I bought this a few months ago, and I love it. I use it once a week to clean my face, and it leaves it fresh, tight and smooth. It helps get rid of the blackheads, while leaving your face clear and smooth, and it also smells great. For some people it might be a little too harsh because of the little scrub particles, but always make sure you moisten the skin so it's not too rough (warm water).

Saving your laptop battery

I came across these great tips on how to save on your laptop battery. I spend pretty much the whole day at the University and I hate carrying the plug with me. My battery is pretty good, usually it lasts about 2-3 hrs. Here are some of the tips to help you save your laptop battery life.

-Dim the screen
-Avoid playing videogames, mp3 playing, running multiple programs
-Turn off the WiFi and Bluetooth and ditch the USB devices, like that external hard drive. These, too, exhaust the battery.
— Check to make sure that you're not running unnecessary programs in the background
-Never leave discs in your CD or DVD drive


For some reason it won't let me post the video or even link it but here is the link, just copy and paste

colors that suit you-blue eyes



Colour to adopt
Orange (the complementary colour for blue). To highlight your eyes, go for eyeshadows in shades of earth brown, golden brown, gold, peach, pink or apricot.

Colour to avoid
Blue-green (this shade will reduce the intensity of the colour of your eyes).

Expert advice
To bring out your pupils, go for contrast. Try out dark colours (black, dark grey, navy blue, etc), focusing especially on the outer corner of your eye. Always finish your eye make-up with a coat of mascara, an essential step for adding intensity to your eyes.

Your colour palette
Coral, copper red, orange, golden, bronze, beige, brown, dark grey...

Eyeshadow color to suit you



For brown/hazel eyes
-golden brown to grey-green, all shades will bring out your pupils.
Colours to avoid
All halftone colours as they're a bit plain for your eyes.

Expert advice
To intensify your smouldering look, apply gold-brown or black liner to your lash line, and finish off with a volumising mascara.

one of my b-day gifts

As I mentioned before it was my b-day on the 24th and my dog Chloe had her puppies on my b-day..I was very happy for that..She had 3 lil babies, 2 males and one female..I'm still trying to convince my mom to keep one..
Here are a few pics






Other than that, I got $, clothes and a purple clutch


We didn't really do anything crazy, we just went to Honest Lawyer which is a pretty chill place. There was about 20 people who showed up which was good. Unfortunately there was sort of misunderstanding and they didn't have my booth ready on time, but we ended up getting a huge table within 15 minutes. The club was wayy too packed so I was happy with that.
Next year I'm probably going to do something more fancy/classy again. It's good to change it once in a while, because before all I did was fancy/classy bars.
I didn't get to wear my outfit that I had planned which was a dress because it was wayyyy too cold, and this was not that type of bar anyways..
When I do wear it I will put the pics..
Pics are coming soon..I've been busy with school, midterms, b-day and GYM! I finally decided to start going,and I already feel better, and more energetic..it was a good idea just gotta keep it up.

if you eat fish..u might wanna watch this first..

I just came across this video. It shows what is in the oceans and what fish eat, and not surprisingly its garbage..
These researches have been exploring the ocean and found lots of garbage in and and they wanted to see if the fish have been consuming it ,and it did prove that fish in fact did consume the garbage that was in the ocean. They found pieces of plastic and other garbage in a lot of fish once they cut them open. Hopefully this video will raise awareness to people and the impact of us not recycling and throwing garbage everywhere.
You can watch it here

Victoria secret swim wear 09






Gotta say I love some of these bikinis, and they seem pretty cheap too. I never bought a bikini there yet but I'm definitely thinking of checking it out next time I go to the states. The last one I bought was from bikini village and it was $105. I'm not too sure why I even paid that much cuz I barely wear it and it wasn't something special either. The straps are way to thick and I get ugly tan lines. Don't get me wrong, some people think that's sexy..however I'm not to fond of tan lines. Anyways enough rambling on..here are some of the bikinis I like..Head over to their site to check out


My favorite is the jeweled orchid and its $42 each

Hair Extensions Review..




So last month I decided to get hair extensions. I ended up getting the glue in , indivudal ones. I was told that he was putting 65 pieces. For 60 pieces I ended up paying $360 + 10 tip. I've been told by some people that they are more expensive than that and others say I was ripped off, so I cannot confirm on that. The extensions were real hair. I liked my extensions because it looked natural, but it was a pain in the ass to wash and brush. The pieces would fall out at least one piece a week. I was told by the hair dresser that they were to stay in for 6months to a year, except mine didn't even last two months. Since most of my extensions came off my friend gave me her clip in ones to try and I must say those work a lot better. You can put them in whenever and take them off whenever. It was hard for me to make them stay in but they would usually stay in for a day. I'd take them off at night.
I decided to take my glue in ones out because I only had about 15 pieces left and it didnt look good at all. For a full set it would cost over $450 and at that time I couldn't afford it, and in a way its good because it was a waste of money pretty much. Clip ins do a great job and are a lot cheaper. Once I took them all out,I counted them up and I only had 56 pieces instead of 65 as I was told he'd put in. So if you guys ever decide to get glue in extensions, keep in mind they will most likely to fall off faster, itch more, and also make sure you count how many are being out in.


Here are a few pics
