My First What's in my..?! :)

Hey Guys Happy Wednesday! :) So today I'm gonna share with you what's in my.. purse and why!

So here's the bag I'm currently carrying I found it at Tjmaxx for $25! not sure what the brand is though lol

                                                   

Inside my bag you will find.. some pretty basic things but I do have a few random ones too!

Journals: I carry three types of spirals. The pink one is my planner, I cant go anywhere without it, the small striped one is my clientele book where I keep all the information about my customers for work; contact info, what brands they have purchased the most etc. And the third one is my journal where I jot down blog ideas, poetry or make lists I am a HUGE list maker lol

Almonds: I carry a container of almonds with me at all times to carve my hunger and to keep me from binging on sugary foods. My favorite are the unsalted because they taste kind of sweet to me and they are healthier than the salted ones and keep me feeling fuller longer.

Amazeline: I always have a thing of Vaseline with me everywhere I go! I'm not kidding I literally have one available in every room of my house just in case I cant find one when I need it, my lips dont produce moisture anymore so I have to keep them moisturized at all times. I also put it on my lashes, eyebrows, hands and feet good stuff!

 Hand Cream: Shea Cashmere. I loveee this stuff! its by True Blue Spa from bath and body works I think its new because I never heard of it until a few weeks ago but it smells so good and leaves your hands feeling so soft! I like lotions with more of a butter consistency so if you like those kinds too you'll love this.

Wallet: my wallet is from private gallery it has been through hell with all the crap I try to force in it haha I got it about 2 years ago but I still love it and cant seem to part with it 

Hairbrush: pretty self explanatory, never know when youre gonna need one haha

Hairspray: Again, pretty self explanatory, its by Tressemee it sprays really well for a travel size

Hand Sanitizer: i love these little things! Mine is from Bath and Body works and since its almost holiday season I 'm carrying the peppermint patty scent it smells so good!, I literally have hundreds of these things I just switch them out to match the seasons :)

Compact: I like the Maybelline instant age rewind because it gives me really good coverage, excuse how gross mine looks Ive had it forever and I need to get a new one lol

Deodorant: cheap whatever works just fine for me :)

Keys: another self explanatory one but hey lol I drive a black 2006 Hyundai Sonata and I'm happy to have it! My key chain is from Juicy Couture

Now onto the good stuff

 

Tons of Lippies! I dont know what it is about lip products but I tend to carry them around in bulk! Maybe its the different colors or the many brands but whatever it is, if you need a lip product I got choo lol

I have NYC gloss in Honey on the Hudson, some baby pink color (cant read the name) and a lip plumper in clear, Revlon lipstick in ginger spice, Revlon lip liner in nude, L'Oreal gloss in a oxblood color and Aveda lip shine in agave nectar. 

My perfume is Dior addict lovee it, a bra strap clip for when I'm having a racer-back moment lol, and a tampon.. ya know

Welp thats all the stuff in my purse, I hope I didnt bore you too much with the details lol Feel free to comment below and let me know what you carry around in your purse, I always love hearing about all the random things people carry around with them and why so please share yours! thanks for reading ya'll hope everyone has a great Wednesday and dont forget to check back on Thursday for the top ten list of the week! :) xoEm

Tjmaxx and Hertha's Hauls and Some new Concepts

Hey lovlies! I hope your week is going well.. So I stopped by Tjmaxx and Herthas, my favorite little resale shop in my home town, the other day and I bought some goodies to add to my fall wardrobe check out what I found :)

Michael Kors blouse found out Herthas for $10

these were really big in the summer but I thought this color would be great to layer on from tjmaxx  for $12

snake skin printed blouse lovee this print! tjmaxx for $12

love this top it would be so cute with faux leather leggings and nude pumps! Tjmaxx, $10

 Express leopard sweater found at Hertha's for $7!

cropped blazer from tjmaxx I think it was $15

label-less lace dress so simple and classy I love it for $12 from tjmaxx

found this at tjmaxx and I saw alot of potential in it so I decided to get it it was only $12

loveee this maxi skirt it fits perfectly and it was only $8 such a steal! from tjmaxx

high waist sequin skirt from tjmaxx for $6 would be so cute with tights and booties!

So excited i found these Jessica Simpson jeggings from Tjmaxx for only $20

found this at tjmaxx for $25 I loved it so much because it looked so Chanel-ish, I adore these styles

And I was able to get all of this and stay well under my budget of $200, I had $50 bucks to spare not to shabby if you ask me :)

                                     

                                         I also wanted to share with you an OOTD picture:

shirt found at Ross for $5, skirt and tights from forever 21, boots from Charlotte Russe, jewelry from sonoma

closer look at these fabulous tights I love them!

Last but not least a new concept! I am thinking about starting drug store hauls because money is tight right now and I'm sure I'm not the only one having to resort to drug store products and there are a lot of great ones out there that arent getting enough credit so if you would like to see drug store hauls from yours truly please let me know below or you can tell me what products you really want to try but are iffy about and i'll be happy to test it out for you! I just picked these up last night so I will let you guys know if these products are worth recommending in a few weeks but i'll keep you updated daily on  twitter. So yeah just a new concept i'm trying out and I might start making videos soon covering subjects such as fashion of course, organizing and downsizing places in your home, and hauls from the stores I shop at I'm not sure though its just an idea but let me know if thatd be interesting or something you'd like to see. Well thats all for now, thank you so much for reading and I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and happy almost Halloween! xoEm

Long Time No Post: Just a few Random Things

Hey everyone! I'm sorry I havent posted on here lately I've been busy coming up with things to post about lol But I'm back and I have a few new things to show you guys :) one thing I love doing is putting together one outfit and either taking away or adding accessories to give it a new look here's one from Sunday :)

  I found this simple but versatile oxblood dress at Forever 21 for only $11, it was too good of a deal to not get it! Anyways I would consider this a daytime look for fall because even though the sun is usually out I am always colder during the day than I am at night I'm weird I know lol I paired it with a camel colored cardigan from again, Forever 21, black opaque tights, grey mary jane pumps from Ross for $20, a grey studded bag also from Ross for $25 and mint and gold jewelry the belt is off of a dress from tjmaxx

 

For my night time look I subtracted the cardigan, changed my earrings from large gold tear drops to simple green beaded ones because I wanted my necklace to stand out the most, changed the layered necklace to more of a statement one, added a gold bead bracelet and my MK watch, switched my mary janes to camel colored peep toe pumps to give my legs a more leaner look and to give my outfit more of a outgoing glam feel, and I switched my larger grey bag to a small classic cream colored flap.

MIMOSASSS<3

For my hair, I would have left it down for the night time outfit but I didnt have time to wash my hair before company came over which is what I love so much about a bun, if you are in a hurry and dont have time to wash your hair throw it up in a bun and it instantly adds a sense of chic to any outfit! For my make up I used a mixture of clinique super balanced make up in linen and Estee Lauder nutritious in intensity 4 in order to create my perfect shade. Otherwise it will look too light or too dark since i'm not tanning anymore but still have some what of a base tan. After applying foundation I set it with loose power then contoured my cheek bones with VS bronzer and highlighted down my nose, above the apples of my cheeks and my cupids bow with a white cream eye shadow. For my eyes I went with a gold base and contoured the outer corners with a dark brown and eggplant. I applied lashes, my favorite are the wispy demies by kiss, they're only $5 at walmart then winged my black eyeliner from revlon and applied one coat of voluminous mascara to blend my real lashes with the fake ones. For my lips I went with a burgundy brown from revlon called ginger spice   and tada! :)

close up of my cute flap, doesnt look so Chanel like? :)

I also made a Halloween cake lol I killed 2 boxes of food coloring to get it this purple haha but it came out exactly how I wanted it to and it was delicious!

                  AND NOW SOME OUTFIT OF THE DAY PICS SINCE I'VE BEEN AWAY

maxiskirt from Tjmaxx, sweater from forever 21

my night time outfit with out the belt lol

top from tjmaxx, tights from hourglass, skirt from forever 21, mary jane pumps from Ross

dress by Max and Cleo, blazer from herthas, shoes by Guess and clutch from Ross

sweater from charlotte russe, skirt from forever 21, tights from forever 21, booties by Michael Kors

On another note my skin is so bad right now and I know its because of what i've been eating lately so I cant wait to try this I hope it works and I'll keep you updated on what I'm consuming and if I see any progress!
I also made a twitter: eemilyynicolee so feel free to follow me, I will follow you back :)
