Jingle Ball 2009

Hey guys so last night i went to what will probably be the best concert i will ever go to in my life! i cant show any pictures of it on youtube because i think it's against the rules, so i just wanted to show you guys some pics i took.

Also i didn't get pictures of everyone because i wanted to enjoy the concert, but i got a bunch, so enjoy!

The Lineup:

Ke$ha

Jay Sean

Owl City

Pitbull

Boys Like Girls

Kris Allen

Jordin Sparks

The Fray

John Mayer

Justin Bieber

Taylor Swift

not the best [picture of me! haha but this is me at the concert :)
boys like girls singing their song with taylor, they turned out to be one of my favorite bands that played
Pitbull

Jay Sean
Jordin Sparks
Owl City was my favorite (besides Taylor Swift)!! I've loved them for a while and im so happy how they're becoming so popular! but i was sad because they only played one song :( but they played like not on the stage and really really close to us :)

Jordin Sparks brought out Justin Bieber to sin "No Air" with her (because obviously she couldn't bring out Chris Brown...)
The Fray
Kris Allen
John Mayer when he brought out Taylor Swift
Justin Bieber when he brought out Usher (and Justin was wearing his foot cast thing from when he broke his foot haha)
He sang to this girl and it was really cute! I think it must have been like a Make a Wish thing or a contest winner or something. Everyone was really jealous! haah
Taylor was AMAZING... obviously

They Also brought out guests to introduce people:
Leighton Meister
Peter Facinelli (Carlisle Cullen)

and others were: Allison Iraheta, Adam Lambert, and Miranda Consgrove

I kept really good track of my shirt and i even had it whnen i got up to leave, but at the very last second i must have dropped it! So then i couldn't find it and i was really upset because they were all sold out of the regular jingle ball ones, so instead i bought the Boys Like Girls one because i really liked them, and its a really cute christmas-y one:
and i also bought one of the fake ones outside beucase it was cheaper and i wanted a Jingle Ball one too that included everyone:

So now I'm going back to sleep because I'm still so tired and my voice is completely gone, haha!

Adorable Christmas Gift Idea

Hey guys, so i have been seeing a TON of holiday idea videos, blog post, etc. and i had (what i think is) a really great idea so i wanted to share it!

My friends and i already picked out our presents before i found either of these prodcuts because were very early shoppers ahha! And i was a little bit sad because i really love this idea, so i will probably do it next year and this way you guys can possibly do it to :)

The first product is OPI "Baby it's 'Coal' Outside"!

I recently found this color while i was getting a manicure and i fell in love! It is a black with silver sparkles and is just so festive for the holidays while still being subtle.

The second product is a bath melt from Lush, called "Want to Believe"!

I haven't tried this product but it looks ah-dorable!! It is in the shape of coal, and again is black (well this is actually more a light black which is gray) with sparkles in it. I adore the Lush bath melts and i have heard many great things about this product!

So if you haven't figured it out (which I'm sure you have haha) the theme is coal! If you are not from the united states then you might not understand this, but young children are told that if they are not good all year, then Santa will bring them coal instead of presents. Of course you don't actually want to give your friends coal! But the theme is sort of a cute way to tie christmas theme into the presents! And i love that they both have sparkles which is sort of making what is supposed to be "ugly" into a pretty and fun gift!

Anyways, i just really liked this idea! And i hope it helps you out!

Let me know in the comments what you are giving your friends for the holidays!!

I don't know why but for some reason my hair is something that i cant always talk about! But i also feel like I'm not alone with that. Hair is always changing, and i always have a complaint or a recent happy discovery. Anyways, its a good thing youtube cuts me off at 10 minutes haha. This video was very requested! so i hope you enjoy :)

(and if you have any requests for a product mentioned, just comment on the video or this blog post)

'Urban Basics' Palette (Cover Girl)

(from left to right: streetlight, metro sparkle, evening shadow, dusk)

The other day i went to walgreens thinking i was either going to get the 'shimmering sands' trio or the 'cafe au lait' trio, but when i got there they were all out of shimmering sands and even though they and teh cafe au lait one, i saw this one which had the three colors of that one plus one more! And they were the same price, so of course i got this one!

In case the lighting alters them a bit, i will explain the colors. Streetlight is a shimmery (but not glittery) white meant to be used for the highlight. I really enjoy this color, because i like to have the bit of shimmer on my brow bone but it is hard to find without glitter, and all the colors are quite pigmented. Metro Sparkle is a VERY sparkly, VERY light pink, but i think it is adorable! It is great for fair skin, which is what i have in the winter. Evening Shadow is a very shiny (not glittery) light brown with sort of pink undertones. Dusk is my least favorite of the bunch, it does look pretty in the crease with Metro Sparkle on the lid, but it is a very grey lilac and is the least pigmented out of all of them.

to give you a better idea of the color Evening Shadow, i found that it was almost identical to a mix of MAC's 'Mulch' and 'Naked Lunch'

(from left to right: Mulch, Naked Lunch, Naked Lunch on top of Mulch, Evening Shadow)
(Metro Sparkle on lid, Evening Shadow in crease, Dusk in outer corner, Streetlight as highlight on brow bone)

This is just one of the eye looks i had tried with these shadows. As you can see, it does come out quite neutral, but it is still glittery (not totally visible in the image) and fun! I really do recommend this palette and can't wait to try more of the Cover Girl Shadows!

Helpful Stalking Hints....

Amazing Advertising #1

I am thinking of trying this new thing where i show you when i stumble upon ads that either inspire me or make me crave whatever it is they are tying to sell to me. So let me know what you guys think of this idea!!This ad came out either last winter or the one before and it was love at first site! It is not a new one, which is normally what i will show you guys, but this is what inspired me to start this idea and has stuck in my head for longer than most images do. I just think this is the most beautiful picture ever! The model is absolutely adorable and the snow is just gorgeous! I think it was a perfect ad for Tiffany&Co because it is classy and shows the whole image of the company rather than just trying to sell you one product. I don't even know how to explain to you all how much i love this picture, so i just had to share it...

What do you think of it? What's your favorite ad?

THANKSGIVING

YAY! I LOVE THANKSGIVING! Always good food, family, and right near my birthday :) whats not to love?

the day started where i took too much cooking sweet potatoes and curling my hair so i had a very short amount of time to pick out an outfit and i ended up being really proud of it's "thanksgivinginess" so i made my mom take a picture of me hahaha

(oh sorry, but i cant figure out how to rotate the pictures on my computer, oops!)
then since brino was home we tried to take pictures with the dogs to use for a holiday card but it sort of failed completely...
then on the car ride we were really bored and we took like 1000 photo booth pictures of ourselves hahaha
this is me and my mom's cousin blowing out our candles, because her birthday is 11/26 and mine is 11/27 so we always share a birthday cake

(and my grandparents didnt have candles so we had to use eggplants shaped candles haha)
this was the cake. so colorful and pretty!!

So now it is 12:16 am (thats when its dark out right?) and officially my birthday!! Yay!! Cant wait until later to see all my friends! Look forward to a birthday vlog most likely tomorrow :)

Shirt: hanes white v-neck tee

Makeup: light brown eyeshadow with some cranberry in the crease and stila's black smudge pot for eyeliner

I Got a Blog!

So my recent form of procrastination has been reading blogs! I just find it so much easier and faster than committing to watching a 10 minute long video, so when I tell myself that I'll start my homework in 5 minutes, it can actually happen. Also, blogs are easier and quicker to post to than making videos, so I love the more frequent updates! Of course my blog is going to be about beauty and fashion, and I'm sure so other randomness too haha! I hope you guys like it!!
