So I have five kitties and I always want to pamper them soI was really exited when I came across the opportunity to try out Pet Magasin's newest product...a kitty cat hammock! It's sooo cute!! It's a bit of a DIY project but not anything I can't handle. *wink* Princess Lily was the first to inspect the box as soon as I opened it!
Curious kitties!! All you need is a screw driver to assemble this little hammock. It comes with all the screws and pieces of wood and the swing part of the hammock in the box.
"How can I help mom?"
Ever the helper my little Zeusy Bear inspects the instructions and screws.
They just can't resist sitting in the box!! haha!!
Jane Austen too!
Yep, pretty easy. It took me like 30 minutes to put it together but that was because I accidentally put in a piece backwards and had to take it out and fix it. lol... It really has easy to understand instructions to DIY it together.
Zeus getting curious about the swing part. haha, what a cutie pie!!
Here it is...all finished!! The kitties are inspecting it and sniffing galore. My kitties are just spoiled little babies, aren't they? Yes....Yes, they are.
💞Look Jane Austen trying it out for a spin!! 💞
So what do you think? Stylish and adorable, right? Want to get one for yourself pretty peeps or should I say for your kitties? You can get 30% off using my code at Pet Magasin's website or Amazon! Yay!! Code: 5F2WSQO4
I'm spending my day sniffing perfume and taking pretty photos of this even prettier bottle. I got the chance to try this beautiful perfume below called Bamboo by Franck Olivier from the wonderful store The Fragrance Outlet. And what a store it is...there are lots of pretty perfumes I want to get from them...there's this Barbie one I have my eye on and a Cinderella one too! heehee..I'm a sucker for whimsy and girlish pretties.
How pretty is the bottle? There's a Bamboo embossed on the bottle itself and the perfume is light pink!! So pretty...totally vanity worthy. It smells sooo light, fresh and green. Definitely a scent that I think most peeps would love. You only need one spritz to smell oh, so pretty! This bottle will last a long time so it's such a great value in my opinion. I really love it and apparently so do my cats! They were sniffing me like crazy and the bottle too. lol.. Top notes: Blackcurrant, violet leaves, ivy Middle notes: Lily, rose, ylang-ylang, freesia Base notes: Musk, cedar and vetiver.
I couldn't resist taking some snaps with some of my current fav products and my new phone case...it's sooo magical! Holographic glitter and unicorns? Yes, please! I got mine on ebay because I couldn't find one for compatible for my phone but you can get it from SkinnyDip London here. I LOOOOOVE that store. I want everything there.
That gold jar is my new eye concealer from Skin Food in Korea called Salmon Dark Eye Concealer in Blooming #1. Yes, I know...I'm addicted to Korean Cosmetics and I LOVE it! Super moisturizing and creamy. It really brightens my eyes up. And next to it, is my Etude House Sweet Recipe Cupcake All Over Color in Blueberry Cheesecake. Love that cute jar so much. I use it mostly for blush. I call it my fairytale blush because it reminds me of Snow White's blush. *dimple* Oooooh...and that Innisfree Pink Nail polish...the PERFECT shade of pastel pink. I need to get another bottle ASAP.
You can really see the embossed Bamboo in the photo on my Franck Olivier Perfume Bottle. I love how the perfume is pink. Aesthetics, peeps! Aesthetics. *wink* Below that is my Cat Winks Pressed Powder Compact (It's empty.... (whispers)....ha!!) but that won't stop me from taking photos of this cute compact. Meow!! I need to get more. And next to that is my go to face makeup. I don't like heavy makeup so I just use a tinted moisturizer and I've been using Radiant Sonia Kashuk in Fair for quite awhile now. Pretty addicted to it. And below a new love...my NYC Matte Lip Creme in Cannes. I absolutely love this shade...like a rose chocolate...never thought anything other than pink and now red would look good on me...but this is super...super pretty!
You peeps need to try this perfume or at least take a looksie at The Fragrance Outlet. They've got SO many perfumes to check out. What do you think of this perfume? Have you tried it before or gone shopping at The Fragrance Outlet? Let me know if you did and what goodies you got! Love to you!!
I don't know if you know this about me but I love lipstick. No, I mean I reallllly love it. I could probably have a million lipsticks and still want more. Lipstick makes me feel soo much more fabulous when I'm wearing it....just a little bit more powerful and dangerous. I'm not the only on, right?
I pretty much JUMPED AT THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW ALL FIVE OF THESE PRETTY LIQUID LIPSTICKS FROM STUDIO GEAR. They're called True Whipped Stain Gloss...they're supposed to leave a stain on your lips for long lasting color throughout the day. They apply like a lip gloss...going on smooth and moist and then dry to a lovely matte finish. I love the matte look they give my lips! The boxes that the lipsticks come in, come in the same color as the lipstick...simple but striking. I think they would look lovely lined up on a vanity.
I really like the packaging. You can see the colors clearly through the tubes & they look so pretty all lined up! The LIPSTICKS are super pigmented and apply smoothly. They're very lightweight feeling...you almost don't know you have any lipstick on. I find they do last throughout the day even through drinking tea (Yep, I love my tea!!) and eating yummy things like chicken avocado salads....it was soo good peeps. heehee...
The lip glosses come with a doe applicator and you only need one swipe of the lipstick to be fully opaque on your lips. It's that fabulous. Look how pigmented it it pretties! I'm wearing true red below. *wink*
THERE ARE FIVE COLORS THAT COME IN THESE STAIN lip glosses.
From top to bottom in the photo below here they are.
♡ TRUE FUCHSIA.♡
Probably my favorite color. I love pink!
♡ TRUE PEBBLE. ♡
I was kind of worried about this color and didn't think it would look good on me. Looking in the mirror after putting it on I still wasn't sure. But I snapped a few selfies and frankly, it looks really pretty! I was kind of surprised.
♡ True Red. ♡
Yep, looks awesome on me. Red is pretty much fabulous.
♡ True wine.♡
Love this color. I love dark vivid lip colors.
♡ True burgundy.♡
This was another one I wasn't sure about...*wrinkles nose* burgundy is not really my favorite color but again SURPRISINGLY looks wonderful!
Below I'm wearing TRUE PEBBLE....such a lovely color right? Would love lovely with a manicure in a pinky beige color with pops of hot pink.
and can i just say how freaking gorgeous my eyes look in this photo...man, when light hits them the right way they pop, don't they? *wink*
To see more photos of these gorgeous lip glosses on me to see how pigmented and gorgeous they really are...just go follow my instagram! These are so lovely and I'm so happy I got the chance to try them out. I definitely think I will purchase these when mine run out. *dimple*
But if you want to go get some right now how about a 10% discount for all my fabulous readers?! Just use code: cherrylips16 when purchasing at their website. I love a good discount! :)
What do you think about them? What's your favorite color or have you tried Studio Gear before?
Merry Christmas pretties!! I hope your day was spent amongst people you love, gobbling up copious amounts of delicious food and wearing pretty clothes. *wink* Today was a day of relaxing (even though I've still got loads of work to do for pretty Margarita Bloom orders!) A girl's got to have some time to herself especially for the holidays. *dimple* I didn't really do too much today. I did want to put together a little #ootd Christmas post which I think might be my first one if you don't include the lingerie reviews I've been doing that is. *wink*
I thought this dress was the perfect Christmas dress! Brilliant Christmas Red with festive white X-Mas Roses....and I got to use my new Samsung NX2000 camera!! I think the photos turned out really great and didn't take me seven hours to get unlike my other old point and shoot camera. I'll be doing a review on my camera as well soon so keep your peepers out for it.
I've had this dress for awhile and actually got it from Rue21. I knew I defintely wanted to wear our pretty new Black Velvet Bow Choker which was just the rainbow sprinkles on the ice cream if you ask me. So simple and pretty. You can't go wrong with velvet and bows. *wink* We'll be adding it to our Storenvy shop soon.
Dress: Rue21
Black Velvet Necklace: Margarita Bloom
Nails: FlashMob
Lipstick: Wet 'N Wild Dollhouse Pink
I pretty much spent the day making nummy food...drinking lots of hot chocolate (And making it from scratch!), admiring some of the Christmas pretties I got...heehee...though I have more on it's way to me! and listened to some X-Mas music which you can hear here on my YouTube playlist. My favorite one is "Louis Armstrong - 'Zat You, Santa Claus". It was pretty relaxing and non eventful. I even got to watch "White Christmas" my favorite holiday movie right up there with "Elf"
Ha! I have to admit I crave some more excitement than my holidays usually have and would love to go to New York and Paris for Christmas going ice skating and eating hot steamy Belgian Waffles with whipped creme from Food Vendors! What a dream!!! le sigh...
I also played with a new Nail Polish Box Set by #FlashMob called Urban Nails while rocking out to some new music by The Virgins called "Rich Girls" the Le Castle Vania Remix.
Thank you Brandbacker and #FlashMob for this awesome Collab! I was SOOOO excited to review this product I can't even tell you. I've been wanting to try out #Flashmob for quite a while now. I came across the brand via another blogger's, Kayla Hadlington's, review of #Flashmobs pretty pink hair chalk. I just fell IN LOVE. ♥ I had wanted to try their hair chalk out but couldn't find a way to order them and have it shipped to the US. I was so bummed but then of course here I am anyway with this awesome collab a little bit later so yay! These nail polishes are just as fabulous as I thought they would be too. I decided to paint my nails in a festive Christmas green to go with my dress with lots and lots of glitter! Their Urban Nails Box Set included 3 pots of glitter in green, blue, and purple with four bottles of nail polish in white, pinky purple, blue, and a gorgeous green.
The formulas are very nice! In fact, the white may be the best one I've tried so far. You can see it in the first photo on this post. The polish can be a little streaky as I found I needed at least four thin coats to get my nails opaque. I applied 4 coats of the blanc white polish so it would make the other color I chose "POP" and be more vivid. I then applied three coats of the green and on the last coat while the polish was still wet dipped it into the pot of glitter and voila! I love this brand....like SUPER love. I was quite surprised at how affordable they were too! At only $4.88 for this box set I was surprised at the awesome quality.
You can get your own here......in fact, I just did. #Flashmob Hair Chalk and lovely lip glosses are on their way to me right now! *wink wink* Happy Holidays!!
