July Favourites


(/•ิ_•ิ)/ I'm confused, how is it already the month of August?! Seriously, time, or this year in general, has been passing by so quickly, that it's a bit confusing and frightening at the same time. (•ิ_•ิ)

Anyways, what's up, people? Have any plans before school starts up again? I'm going to be working almost everyday and volunteering before I head back to school in the fall. I'm also hoping to score another volunteer opportunity, before settling back into the school life.

I haven't done a "Favourites" post for a while, so why not make my first post in August about my favorites for July? ୧། ☉ ౪ ☉ །୨

1. Shop Gracie Usa Brianna Knit Crop Top
-I'm not a huge fan of crop tops, although this year, I've been experimenting with them and it's been fun. I got this cute knit top from an online store called Shop Gracie Usa.What I like about the crop top is that it's very comfortable and can fit any body size. The store itself, has a variety of cute clothing and they have numerous sales as well. Haha, I wish that they provided free shipping outside of the USA though!

2. #GIRLBOSS Book
 -This is one of favorite books up to date. Back in May, when I just started taking a break from school and I had no job, I was feeling a bit down since I didn't know what I want to do for my career. My friend recommended me this book in which it chronicles the life of Sophia Amoruso, the owner of Nasty Gal, and how she ended up homeless to becoming a rich and successful business women in a span of few years. So, this book gave me inspiration and hope, that everyone will eventually find their path in life.

3. The Face Shop Pomegranate Cleansing Cream
-If you guys might think you've seen this cleansing cream before it's because it was actually part of a my previous beauty haul post, way back. I know, I know, it took me months to finally use it, and now I love using this cleansing cream when I wash my face. The scent is light and pleasant and my skin feels very refreshed afterwards. ヾ(≧∇≦*)ゝ

4. YSL Forever Light Creator CC Cream in Apricot
-The YSL Colour Corrector Cream is something I use whenever I feel like putting foundation on. Unlike previous CC creams, BB creams or foundation, this one is very light and not heavy at all! The cream also blends very well with my skintone and the coverage is great too. However, the price is expensive, and I remember I only bought this as a splurge before I left my previous job as a gift to myself.

5. Funko Pop! Ron Weasley 
-To be honest, I still don't know if this brand is called Pop! Funko or Funko Pop! figurines...(o゜ー゜o)?? Anyways, I wasn't even into collecting these until I bought a Ted 2 figurine. So when the Harry Potter series came out, I knew I had to buy my favorite character from there, Ron Weasley. Isn't he so cute? Do you guys collect any? If so, which ones do you have?


That's it for my favourites for the month of July, I hoped you enjoyed it. I'm also not too sure when I will next update my blog, so let's say I'm aiming to post one more in the month of August and then we'll see how school plays of factor when September comes.

Thanks for reading,

April Favourites


Hello, hello, hello, people. 。◕‿◕。

Today I'm excited to share my very first "Monthly Favourites" post with you guys. In actuality, I was going to write about a nail tutorial for my first post of May, but then I couldn't find all the materials I needed, so I was stumped on what to write for a few days. ( ・◇・)?

But then I realized, after reading on other blogs, I never wrote about my favourite items, for the month, so here it is!!!

Sadly, (haha), this post is going to be a lot shorter than the norm, so hopefully, enjoy!


1. Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner in Black
-I got this eyeliner off someone (brand new), for cheap!!! What I really like about it is that it's very precise and I can easily create thin or thick lines. The packaging is also very adorable, so another plus. I will do a future and more detailed review on this product, for sure.


2. Sonia Kashuk Clear Eyebrow Gel
-This is probably one of my favourite eyebrow product to date. It works really well, as it makes my eyebrows stay put. As well, I got it for a really low price, when Target Canada was having their closing down sale.


3. Live Clean Lovely Lips Moisturizing Lip Balm
-When it comes to lip balms, I'm super picky. For me, it has to be a certain brand such as EOS, Softlips, Burt's Bees, etc., but the time I picked up this one, I was in a desperate need for anyone as my lips were really dry and chapped. That being said, I love this lip balm! It does it's job, my lips are now very soft and moisturized, haha.


4. Forever 21 Heart Necklace
-Moving away from beauty products, this necklace that I bought from Forever 21, is one of my favourite pieces so far. It can easily be matched with many different outfits and the intricate designs on it, makes it unique and pretty.


5. Hello Kitty Samsung S5 Cover
-Recently, I got a new phone and of course, I had to get a cute cover for it. If you read my previous post, you may have already known that I'm a huge fan of Hello Kitty, and I just had to get one that was pink and Hello Kitty. If you were wondering, I got it off Ebay.


It kind of feels weird ending a post at such a short length. or maybe it's probably because I'm not use to it. ↷( ó╻ò)   If I'm updating more frequently than usual, it's because I'm not taking any summer courses this year, which is very odd for me, since I have been going to school every semester for the last few years. 

Also, on a side note, I've completed 4 out of 6 of my monthly goals from April!!! The ones I haven't completed are attending different classes that will help my find my interests and getting a job, so with that, I will be making those and getting a toned stomach, as my goals for May.

Anyways, thanks for reading,
