The Twitter Universe Can Get Great Reactions

Hey everyone!

I know that it is very possible that you have already seen this but if you haven’t, go and watch this as soon as you are done reading this entry. As most of you know Twitter is filled with both good tweets and bad tweets and Jimmy Kimmel has found some of these bad tweets that are directed to celebrities and have the celebrity read them out loud and react to them.

It is absolutely hilarious and my featured video of this week is Celebrities Read Mean Tweets #7. This has to be my favourite out of all of them because of the way that June Squibb, Matthew McConaughey, and Sofia Vergara react. Though they are all brilliant Sofia Vergara is my favourite reaction and you will find out why when you watch the video, I’m not giving any spoilers. So go what this and be thoroughly entertained!

Also, just so you know next week from Monday to Friday I will be in Toronto so my posts might be a bit different, I'm thinking of doing photos from my trip as entries instead of my usual beauty, fashion, or food entry. I might also be taking video footage of my trip so if you want to see a vlog style video of my trip be sure to let me know!

Summer Shoes!

Hey everyone!

So I went shoe shopping today because I was in need of some cute and comfy summer shoes and I found exactly what I was looking for! I went into both Aldo and Spring and got a pair from each place. If you have an Aldo close to you I would suggest going there because they are actually having a sale right now up to 25% off so if you like Aldo I would go to see if there is anything you like.

The first shoe I got is Aldo’s Cherrasien shoe in Light Pink. These are cute shoes that are perfect for summer because they are low cut and do not fully cover the top of the foot. These are comfortable to walk in and easily can dress a casual look up a bit. The will definitely be something that I use to pair with a causal look, and a more dressed up look.

 The second pair of shoes that I got is from Spring and they are the Giorgia in the colour Navy Nubuck. These are almost the same style as Toms but come down a bit lower on the foot. These are perfect for casual days or days when you are walking a lot because they are very comfy, but are also cute so you can where the with more dressy attire too.

Spring's Giorgia

 Both of these shoes are comfortable to wear and can be worn in almost any situation. I am very happy with what I was able to find because it was exactly what I was looking for. Let me know what shoes you are earing this Summer, and let me know where you usually shop for shoes.

Yummy Treat!

Hey everyone!

I have recently discovered a yummy and healthy treat that I think you all would really enjoy. I was just browsing through Home Sense to kill time before going to work when I saw Chia seeds which I have been looking for so I picked those up and went to the check out. I was waiting for the next till to open up and I saw the Chia that I was getting in the line area and I noticed a package that was right beside them. I picked it up curious and read what it was just to pass the time waiting in line, and it sounded like something that I would really enjoy.

It is a product called Banana Coconut Snackaroons and they are absolutely delicious. I have always loved food that contains coconut and I really enjoy the taste of banana so I went out on a whim and got this just to try. Well it was a great decision because as soon as I tried one I knew that this had become one of my new favourite treats.

This is by Laughing Giraffe Organics and contains ingredients such as unsweetened Coconut, Agave, Almonds, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Banana, Vanilla Extract, and Himalayan Pink Salt. Each bag contains about 8 of the banana coconut treats and one of them is a pretty decent size so you would probably only want one for a little dessert. Once these are done I am going to try to find more of their products and see how I find them, and I will let you all know what I think!

So let me know if you have tried these products and what you thought of them if you did! Or if you know of similar products I would really love to know what they are!

Very Relatable!

Hey everyone!

So I found this video and thought it was perfect for my Favourites On Friday ( that is what I am calling Fridays entry from now on.) This is a short video so if you only have a couple minutes to spare you will be able to watch this. As soon as this video started I knew right away that this was the video that I wanted to talk about this week because I completely relate to the topic of this video. 

If you don't know who this is, I will be shocked! This is an amazing YouTuber and goes by AmazingPhil. He is one of the popular British YouTubers, and for a good reason. He has this way of keeping his audience entertained and engaged throughout his videos which is a key quality that I look for when I watch videos.

Anyways, at the beginning of this video he talks about spots appearing just as you are going to do something like get you pictures taken. This is so relatable for me because it seems just as my skin has cleared up it breaks out as soon as I plan to go out. It's so annoying but it's sadly something that I am used to so I was happy to hear that I'm not the only one that goes through this.

I also found what he said about his apartment, and the feeling of how you really don't want to lose something, but don't realize it until it's threatened to be taken away to be very accurate. Since I have my own place now I get worried when my landlord comes over and feel the need to clean everything and make sure everything is perfect. I know it's not very rational but it's something that I end up doing because I just get worried with the 'what ifs".

Check out the video!

So that is it for today! I hope you liked this video! If you did let me know what your favourite part was and let me know any video that you think I should check out.

ipsy May 2014 Glam Bag Review

Hey everyone!

So I finally got my May ipsy Glam Bag which I have been excited to get all month long. My fist ipsy bag was amazing and the bag I got for May was no exception. It again was a fantastic bag and I can’t wait to see what I will get in June.

This month’s theme was Fresh Picks and it definitely lived up to the theme. I received Therapy Session Hair Mask by Eva NYC which I have used a couple times already and it is fantastic. I have very crazy hair and this definitely seemed to help repair the damage my hair has. Also, a bonus of this product is that is smells heavenly, so even if it doesn’t completely do what you want, it will make your hair smell great!

In this month’s Glam Bag I also received the Mineral Eyeshadow Duo #1 which are the shades Celestial and Opal and this product is by Pacifica. They are nice natural shades and have a bit of shimmer to them which can be a nice effect if you are going for a natural look or even going out. The shades aren’t too pigmented which I am fine with because with my skin tone more than a bit of colour can be too much, but it might not be something you all would enjoy.

Another Fresh Pick product that I got is Thermal Spring Water by Avene. I absolutely love this product because not only does it feel good because it’s summer and it’s a nice and refreshing spray, but it does its job.  I have sensitive skin which tends to make by skin itchy and usually a redness to my skin as well and this helps to sooth both of these problems. I would recommend this product to anyone because this is absolutely a must have for me now.

Now I don’t know about most people but I love scented things. I have a lot of scented candles, incense, body sprays, and perfumes. That being said, I was super excited when I saw that I got endless euphoria by Calvin Klein. This smells amazing and is the perfect travel size to fit in any purse or bag that you carry. It is a simple roll on perfume which is great so you can be watchful of how much you want to be putting on. Love this product! If you can get a hold of this or try your friends I highly recommend it!

The final product that I received this month is the perfect product for me and it is Sans Tan Anti-aging Sunscreen by Jersey Shore Sun. I was happy to receive this product because I am a very fair skinned individual and any skin protection I can get is welcome into my day to day routine. I will be using this in just a small area on my face where I get burned most often which is my cheek area and the bridge of my nose. It will be nice to be able to use a UV protection without smelling like sunscreen for my entire day.

Anyways that is it for now! If you received a ipsy Glam Bag this month let me know what you got and what you liked and disliked. I am very happy to say that all the products I received this month are amazing and I hope that the June ipsy bag is just as good, if not better.

Favourite Eateries!

Hey everyone!

So I spent the weekend back in my home town to spend time with my family, and celebrate Mothers Day and my moms birthday all in the same weekend. While I was in my home town I went to a few of my favorite eateries and if you are ever in the Cambridge area I highly suggest you check these places out.  

The first place I want to talk about first is a cafe called Brown Dog. It is open all year round and serves up delicious treats and beverages. 

The interior of the cafe is so cute and has a lot of vintage decor, which is one of my favourite things about this place. It also shows old silent films throughout the whole day and have a nice couch area where you can sit and enjoy the show and your order. (Sorry you can't really see the film, this was in the afternoon so the sun made it hard to see.)

This is just one of the cute vintage decor items that they have all through out the cafe. The decorations that they have throughout the cafe are all very cute and give off a feeling of home.

They have these cute numbers signs to give each customer so they can call orders and what I got was a Peachy Keen Fog.

As well as a deep fried mars bar. Both were so delicious and it was a fantastic treat to have in the afternoon. My mom ordered the same things that I did and we both agreed that the drink was very refreshing especially since it was quite warm outside. It was lovely going to Brown Dog during my weekend visit and as always the food and drinks were delicious.

Another one of my favourite places to get a treat is an Ice Cream parlor that is stationed in an old train. Indulge is only open during the late spring and the end of the summer months, but it is always an exciting time when it opens. 

The prices for their different sizes and offers are great and they always give a generous amount of ice cream. I usually get my ice cream in a bowl, but they do make homemade waffle cones in the train so when waiting to pick your flavour(s) of ice cream you get this nice vanilla scent as you wait. 

They also offer a number of different and delicious flavours including the two kinds that I had this weekend. I got a scoop of Raspberry Truffle and Pineapple and Orange Sherbet. It's the perfect amount of ice cream and it is the perfect way to end a summers day.

If you have any questions let me know and feel free to leave comments about your favourite spots to eat!

Doing Something You Love!

Hey everyone!

So today’s entry is going to be a bit shorter since Mondays was extremely long.  I sketched for the first time in months and I forgot how much I love it. It’s not the best thing out there but I’m a little out of practice since I haven’t sketched since September. I was too busy with school or wasn’t in the mood, but I picked up a pencil today and began doing something that I love. It’s funny that something as simple as a sketch that took about an hour and a half to complete, made me as happy as I am. It felt so accomplishing to finish this sketch and I’m so happy that I picked up that pencil instead of going to Netflix like I usually do. I did something I enjoy and can feel accomplished after I do which is better than going to the next movie or show not really doing anything productive with my free time.

 The point of this post is to remember to make time for things you love. It could be reading, drawing, designing, or spending time with your friends and family. Even if you have 15 minutes of spare time in your day, spend it doing something that you love. I know that I will definitely be spending more time sketching and doing photography because those are two things that I love, but don’t normally make enough time for. So take a few minutes out of you day doing something that you enjoy and bask in that moment because there is no better feeling than doing something you like.

This is the sketch I did today if anyone was curious :)

So tell me what you love to spend you spare time doing or something that you wish you would have continued doing!
