Purse Haul

I was so excited when I got this beautiful tan Guess bag as a gift from my mom.  I had been wanting it forever.  It is huge and holds everything I need and everything I don't need.  One of my favorite features is the braided handle.  

I don't know why this looks pink in this picture but it is really grey.  I purchased this from Just Fab and it is faux ostrich.  This bag is huge.  Definitely not a bag you would use everyday but it will work great for a work bag or for an overnight trip.  It's like a mini suitcase.  Love it

This beautiful bag is by Elle and is available from Kohls.  The leather is like butter, so soft.  It has three big sections inside and slots for your phone and a few other things.  I also love the outside zippered section that is perfect for your keys.  As a bonus it comes with a cute white leather bow key-chain. This bag is large enough for me since I live big purses.  It also fits over my shoulder really well.   

Book Review: Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver

Sam and her friends rule the school and they aren't nice about it either.  They define the term mean girls.  One Friday night while driving home drunk from a party something terrible happens and Sam dies.  The weird thing is Sam wakes up the next morning and it is Friday all over again.  For seven days Sam relives her last day over and over again.  Each time with surprising differences.  Sam has to die in order to be able to really get to know herself.  Very unique plot twist with the main character dying and reliving her day over. I gave it four out of five stars.  The author has a trilogy called Delirium that is soon being made into a tv show that I look forward to reading.  I'll keep you updated.   

Book Review: Saving CeeCee Honeycutt by Beth Hoffman

CeeCee Honeycutt has had a hard life and for twelve years she has held on.  On one tragic day everything comes tumbling down and CeeCee's world falls apart.  Since she is only twelve decisions are made for her and she doesn't like them.  As the summer rolls on CeeCee begins to realize that what she thought was wrong for her was what she needed all along.  A five star read there ever was one. Usually a book offers up one character that you fall in love with but this one has half a dozen. One of my favorite books.  I'll definitely be encouraging everyone to read it. I can't wait to see what the author writes next.   

"It's how we survive the hurts in life that bring us strength and give us our beauty"

Book Review: Pretty in Plaid by Jen Lancaster

The subtitle "A life, a witch, and a wardrobe, or the wonder years before the condescending, egomanical, self centered smart-ass phase." One of the funniest memoir I have ever read.  Jen takes you from her early fashion decisions and disasters at age eight to her blunders and discoveries at age forty.  As a lover of fashion and someone with my own fashion disaster stories I laughed all the way through this book.

Book Review: Divergent by Veronica Roth

Wow where do I begin? I loved this book! Tris must choose which faction she wants to join and that one choice will change her whole life.  Soon to be a major motion picture starring Shailene Woodley from the TV show The Secret Life of an American Teenager and the Fault in our Stars movie. One of the best and most Popular Dystopian books out there.  Did I mention Four?  You will love him.  This book will definitely go on my favorites shelf.  

Bath and Body Works Haul

Hi dolls! I know it's been awhile but I promise to make it up to you.  Ok I had to go over to Bath & Body Works since it's bee forever since I have been there   I was in desperate need of some soap and hand sanitizer.  They were having a 5 for $15 sale on the hand soap and a 5 for $5 sale on the sanitizer.  I tried out some new scents too.  I got fresh picked peach and bella flora hand soaps.  I also got some favorites with warm vanilla sugar, white citrus and cucumber melon hand soap.  I love this scent so I had to get some white citrus shower gel and hand cream.  How cute is my pink chiffon hand cream? last but not least I got flip flopped fruit, pink champagne, pink lemonade, pink diamonds and pink frosting hand sanitizers.  TTFN
