❤ A Pretty Pout for NYE ❤

We can't believe it's going to be 2014 already...where did the year go? With 2013 ending, that means New Years Eve is coming and that means pucker up pretties for that New Years Eve Kiss at midnight!

Have you ever wondered why we kiss at midnight on NYE? I know I have. When was the first NYE kiss? Who first said...hey, let's kiss...it'll be good luck?! Oh, boy there's a line for you!! giggle... Actually, it's a tradition that dates back to the time of the Ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia...the original NYE party!!  And boy there was a lot of kissing and debauching going on at that party let me tell you.... (voice trailing off....daydreaming commencing.....) ah-hem...moving on.... *wink*

Now, if we asked the Germans and English about kissing they'd say kissing the first person you see at midnight was a sure sign of good tidings to come in the New Year and not kissing someone well, I guess you can imagine what that means...yep, not good. Just to be on the safe side you better make sure your lips are pout and pucker worthy for that certain NYE someone, oui?

Nobody wants flaky dry lips especially on NYE....and that's where Margarita Bloom comes to the rescue. We've got the potions you need to make your lips oh, so lovely and soft. Enter our Pink & Rosy Rose Lip Scrub....a delightful lip sugar scrub with roses, lovely oils and delectable honey to smooth your lips & our Racy & Risque Rosie Rose Lip Balm to butter up those lush lips of yours. Follow these simple steps below to get lovely polished perfect lips. It's such a simple small thing to do that has a big impact on that pretty smile of yours. *kiss kiss*

It sounds divine, right?  That's what this post is all about!!

Let's forget our troubles and daydream about a Christmas in The City...NYC to be precise! at the Plaza Hotel!! Hold on tight to your sleigh because here we go!!

The grand entrance of the Plaza Hotel in NYC. 

What a welcome!! Gorgeous red carpet & everything gilded in gold!! Let's go inside!!

Oh, would you look there!! Before we go in, look at those gigantic beautiful wreaths decorated with gold ornaments and pine cones. Have you ever seen such large wreaths before? They're magnificent!!! It just puts one in the festive mood for some bubbly, don't you think?

One of the many Christmas Trees that adorn The Plaza Hotel...how delightfully charming. And look at that utterly breathtaking chandelier and the even the floor is pretty!! Why there's something to look at and marvel from floor to ceiling.

Oooh, more Christmas Trees to look at....giggle...are all those presents for moi? I do adore anything from Chanel, Burberry, Kate Spade and a certain little Tiffany Blue Box. *wink wink* 

But of course the prettiest or the pinkest PINK tree is the one designed by Betsy Johnson!! 

We just LOVE it!!!!!!!!!

Off to our suite, oui? Which one will you choose?

It'll sure to be a treat of luxury, utter refinement and FUN!! 

I love how the light dances off a chandelier, don't you?
Like little fairies dancing in tune to silent music....

 

The Eloise Rooms is totally fun and PINK!! How could you not love it!!!

Talk about Luxury!! How I love this fireplace!!! Swoon worthy!!! Could it be time for tea?

Or would you want to stay in The Great Gatsby Room!!!! Razzle Tazzle!!

Time to go dine out about town!! Let's get dressed up...in a new outfit of course...we're always dressed up any time of the day. *wink* and look for some good food to nibble on, delicious drinks to sip & window shopping! Three of my favorite things to do. *wink*

Ooooh, should we stop and have a ride in one of these wonderful old world style carriages? Why yes, I think we should!! Talking about Old World look at these pics of The Plaza Hotel & the Vanderbilt Mansion back in the early 1900s and look even the fabulous Marilyn Monroe stayed at the Plaza Hotel!!!!!

It's starting to get dark...and look at how the city comes alive!! 

So vibrant and GORGEOUS to look at!

Dinner? What shall we have? Seafood of course and petite little pretty foods to nibble on with pink bubbly to tickle our noses!! After that, we'll check out some gorgeous boutiques and head back for a lovely night of slumber and start all over again tomorrow!! Join me? I knew you would!! *dimple*

❤ Ravishing Rosalee Hibiscus Serum Review ❤

We recently sent some products off to the sweet Jen of "My Beauty Bunny" to review on her fabulous blog and this is one of the many items that she gave her seal of approval to!! You can read more here...

"The Ravishing Rosalee Rosehip Serum is my favorite. You guys know I love anything that smells like roses! It’s a light serum/moisturizer that’s great for combination or oily skin. If you have very dry skin, you may want to follow up with a heavier moisturizer. For me, it’s perfect, because I have combo skin. The serum is made with organic aloe, DMAE, Vitamins A, B, C & E, hibiscus extract and of course – roses! I would wear this as a perfume – not just a facial moisturizer – love it!

❤ Influenster: The Holly Jolly Vox Box! ❤

I just joined up at this very cool site called Influenster where you get to review products from all different kinds of companies and let other peeps know how you liked them. Yep, it's pretty awesome. So I got my first box from them and this is what was inside!!! Behold!! Can you guess which one I liked the best? *dimple*

 
 1.) Rimmel London Show Off Lip Laquer in Aurora. Here are the deets!  The formula was nice but I wasn't too keen on the smell of it. I like mine unscented or smelling of vanilla & this wasn't either. *pout* The color is kind of like an orangy red which is not my color at all. I tend to lean towards colors like fuschia or bubble gum pinks but color is all about preference, isn't it! *wink*  
2.) Blue Flower Duck Tape - Cute! I'm sure I'll use it for some of my packaging.  
3.) Puffs Plus Lotion Tissues - An essential in any purse if you ask me. You never know when you'll need them! And they're in a resealable package which is cool.  
4.) NYC Eyeshadow Trio Palette - I don't often use eyeshadow maybe because I'm so obsessed with lipstick!! haha...but this seemed really light in pigmentation. Pretty colors though.    
5.) And you guessed it, my favorite...Skinny Cow Peanut Butter Cremes. Yep, these were consumed in 2.0 seconds. No kidding! Yum! They tasted very similar to one of my fav Sarris Peanut Butter Meltaway Chocolates.

*Disclaimer: I received these items as promotional samples to try out from Influenster.com.

❤ Candy Cloud: One Adorable Macaron Pillow ❤

Hey peeps, so I've got some exciting news to share! We're going to start doing reviews of awesome companies & products that we love by using our vast & super powerful social media powers but don't worry we promise we'll only use these super powers for good...and try not to take over the world! Well....maybe...a girl has to have goals you know. *smiles* This is going to be FUN, don't you think? 

If you happen to know of a product or fabulous company that you'd like us to review or maybe you have one yourself just email us with the delightful info. You can message us via any social media or directly through our email by using our "Connect with Moi" area to the right! We'll be ever so happy to hear what you have to say. Now, on to our first of many awesomesauce reviews.

For our first product we're reviewing a Macaron shaped pillow by the adorable company Candy Cloud! How fabulous is that?! A Macaron shaped pillow...come on, I know I've got your interest. First off their name is adorable...Candy Cloud.  Without even knowing what they sell I'd check them out. I love anything macaron related; edible macarons, macaron jewelry and of course now Candy Cloud's macaron pillows. 

I first heard about this company through a friend of mine on Twitter Kim of "A Very Sweet Blog"  Kim has an awesome blog herself, so I would check her out too! I just KNEW I had to contact Candy Cloud and they were so kind to send one of their "Raspberry Vanilla" Pink Macaron Pillows for me to review for them. How sweet is that? When the pillow finally arrived it was like Christmas came early to Margarita Bloom!! It came all wrapped up, secure and protected in plastic with the cutest little Candy Cloud label on it. I can't even tell you how cute this pillow is in person & how excited I was to get it. It's just the right size, perfectly soft and huggable and so sweet. I always smile every time I see it and have to pick it up for a squeeze. I'm not kidding! I do it! I'm doing it right now as I write this. giggle...

You HAVE to have one of these or in fact all five of them. They offer five different colors in luscious sounding "flavors". You can pick from Lavender, Pistachio, Earl Grey, Lemon and Vanilla Raspberry which is the one I received. It matches my pretty rose comforter perfectly!! They're $25 each & you can save some moola if you buy all five on their website and even get 10% off your order if you sign up for their newsletter. You can find them on Facebook & Twitter too so you can keep up to date with what's going on with this fabulous company which I highly recommend. 

I can't say enough good things about Candy Cloud except go out and get one of these delightful pillow for yourself. *smiles* Your bedroom will look all the cuter for it. (Squeezes macaron pillow!!!)
