Shopping again?

Hiiii! :)

So Father's Day is this weekend and last night I realized that I had yet to get my dad a gift. My Dad is so hard to shop for so I usually need some time to figure something out. One of my best friends also hadn't gotten her dad anything so we decided to go look for something today. Now this is the same friend that I have mentioned in previous posts (check out her blog HERE) and we should not be allowed to shop together. We both have very little self control and so we ended up buying a few things for ourselves as well.

First we went to Target because we just got a new one close to where we live and we hadn't been in it yet. Of course the clothing section was at the very front so we had to check it out. I ended up finding a really cute dress for $8 so how could I resist buying it? When I got home, I realized it had pockets too which was a lovely surprise! It is also a nice comfortable material, so I will definitely be wearing this a lot!

I especially love the bows on it, and the fact that it has pockets!

I also got a few more small items from Target....

I know that I didn't need the magazine, but I just wanted one to read so I got it anyways:P  I also got a NYX Jumbo Lip Pencil which I actually used when I got home. I got the 716 Pink brown one, but to me it is more like a coral colour. It is a bit shimmery and looks almost metallic when you put it on. It's really pretty but it isn't too crazy so I can wear it anytime! The last thing I got was the Goody Tanglefix. Basically it is like a brush and so far I really like it! It is nice to hold and  find it goes through  my hair easily. However my hair is straightened today so hopefully it works just as well on my natural hair.

I had picked up all these items and still hadn't found anything for my dad so I ended up just getting my dad a gift card that works at a few different restaurants which I think he will enjoy.

 We decided to stop at winners and see if there was anything we liked there, and there were, but we actually did not buy anything (which is kind of surprising). 

We then made a pit stop at dollarama to get a few more things. My dad absolutely loves liquorice allsorts so I got him 3 bags. 

We decided to go to Starbucks for a nice little sit down and I had a gift card which was awesome! We ended up just having lunch there as it was almost 4pm and we hadn't eaten yet. I got this chicken, quinoa and veggie wrap which was actually very delicious. I wasn't expecting it to be that good! I also got a Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino. I am in love with chocolate so this was just perfect! There was even chocolate whipped cream which is just amazing. We sat outside because it was such a beautiful day (although now it looks like there is going to be a storm!) and had a lovely chat.  We both enjoyed the lunch and sunlight!

  It was such a fun day, I always love getting to see my friends! 

I hope you all have a wonderful day, and hopefully the weather was nice wherever you were too :)

Manicure Monday

Hiiii :)

     Since today is Monday, I think it is only fitting that I show you my newly painted nails. Once again it is nothing special, I just think they are pretty and want to share them with you! I actually painted them last night, but let's just pretend I did them this morning ;)

     Before I did my nails this time I used a sugar hand scrub from Bath and Body Works that I haven't had a chance to use yet. It smells so wonderful! I am awful at describing scents but here goes.... it was very sweet and I believe it is like a grapefruit scent. It's just s delicious, plus it made my hands feel very soft! I like it a lot and will definitely use it a lot!

 I love watching movies when I do my nails, so my sister and I watched Enchanted. I hadn't seen it in a while and  I forgot how cute it is! I felt inclined while watching this film to paint my nails like a princess. This means sparkles and pretty colours.  I decided to paint my nails a shimmery gold colour with a thin sparkly pink layer on top. These two polishes combined create a rose gold colour that is really lovely. It looks very pretty in the sun as the light captures the shimmer and sparkles. I used Sally Hansen's "Golden-I" with OPI's "Teenage Dream" (Katy Perry).

     

     I was pleased with the final result, and it was nice to finally paint my nails since it had been a while! Of course after I took this picture I ruined some of the nails not long after but what can you do!! :)
I hope you all have a lovely day wherever you may be!

Cute As A Button

Hiii:)

I have this little obsession with nail polish that usually begins every spring and lasts until school begins again. I absolutely love buying all the different colours and painting my nails. I think my nail painting skills have definitely improved with the amount that I paint them :) I tend not to do my nails as often in the winter months because school, hockey and other activities keep me busy and there is simply not enough time. Although I love doing my nails it is a tedious task as I hate waiting for them to dry. I always seem to chip them not long after as well which is kind of my own fault!

Anyways, today I did my nails and I wanted to share it with you as the colour I used is one of my favourites at the moment.

 There are two colours on my nails at the moment but the pinky coral one is my favourite. I hadn't had a chance to try the white one and I figured these colours went nicely together. I wouldn't really call the white nail polish "sparkly" but there is a definite shimmer in it. It didn't really turn up great in the picture although the second picture captures it a bit. I do really like this one as well but the coral is just amazing! Every time I wear it someone compliments me on it. It lasts for a good amount of time and I think it is perfect for this season. I just got it about a month or two ago and I have already worn it three times. I just think it is soooo pretty:)

     The pink-coral colour is called "cute as a button" (essie) and the shimmery white is "It's All About the Glam"(Nicole by OPI). These nail polishes can be expensive sometimes but I was able to get both of these on sale at a very good price. I am very happy with both of these polishes. 

Feel free to leave any thoughts below, and I hope you all have a wonderful day! :)
