Viva La Juicy Perfume on Sale!

I've been wanting the Viva La Juicy perfume for the longest time!! I hear so many girls talk about it on Youtube which got me so curious. I love the packaging especially the perfume bottle and the bow, I'm a sucker for bows!! You also can't forget that it's Pink which is also one of my favorite colors!


I've been eying this set ever since the holidays started. You know how they have specials and deals during Christmas so you can purchase it as gifts. I thought that $30 was a really good deal because you not only get the Perfume but you get a body gel and Lotion. I ended up not getting it because I've been on a budget and I couldn't purchase anything for myself.


After the holidays, I was browsing though Target's marked down items and came upon this! I was so excited I grabbed it!! It was only going for $21 and since I didn't have to purchase anymore presents I was able to get this for myself! My friend wanted one too but I got the last one. I'm so happy, this is by far one of the best finds I got at Target!

$1 Socks Haul!

I got these socks at Target and Forever 21. For some reason, every time I go to these stores I always look for the $1 socks!! I just get so excited when I see new cute designs that I don't have. Is this weird? hehe, I don't know but I really like it. I also went to Target today and went to look at the socks but there weren't anything new or anything that I liked. Bummer...I have a lot of other cute designs but because they are already worn I don't think it's appropriate to take a photo of worn socks, even though it's clean. I know...some of you wouldn't mind but I just have a weird thing about feet, I don't like feet and I don't like it when I see people touching their feet. Lol! Omg I'm getting off topic but maybe because of my disgust for feet I love socks because it covers it up!

Oh btw...the Forever 21 socks were actually about 95 cents. But you know..it rounds up to be a dollar with tax so no difference.

CVS 50-75% Off Sale Part 1

As most of you know CVS is having a great sale on cosmetics. Most items are marked down 50% or 75% off. The reason why they are having this sale is because they are discontinuing the items so they are trying to make more shelf space for the newer items. I've heard of the sale and tried going to CVS one night but i didn't find anything. I was seriously expecting the sale signs to be in my face but it really wasn't. It's mixed with the other regular items so I totally missed it and got nothing and just went home. Then when I was watching other youtube guru's talking about their hauls I got really curious again and decided to go with my friend. OMG! Who would've thought it was these little stickers that totally blends in with the rest of the stuff. We had to look around hard to find what's on sale, especially because most of the stuff was probably sold out already.

I got these two hip eyeshadows. I've always thought about purchasing these but for $8-9 I was a bit too cheap to purchase it. Since this went on sale I had to get it because they were only going for $2.12 each!! I got two, the one on the left is sassy and the right is devious.

I already have this Dream Mousse Concealer by Maybelline but in Light, I wanted a slightly darker color because the one I got was a bit too light on me. I ended up getting medium beige which I think will look good under my powder. I got this for $3.89

Maybelline's Sensational Lipstick in Pink Please is my favorite lipstick ever!!! I think that this was the first lipstick that I've ever loved and also the one I wear on a daily basis. I seriously still have one that i'm using and another backup but I couldn't let this deal go so I ended up getting a second back up. I know..crazy but it was only $4.49.

I have a couple of Revlon's Lipgloss and especially the ones that were supposedly limited edition. I purchased all the colors except for the red one because i thought the red was a bit crazy, now I somewhat regret not getting it. Anyway, I did purchase this Lilac one but returned it because I wasn't sure how the purple color would look on my lips. Boy am I glad I returned it because I ended up getting it on sale for $2.25 instead of paying around $9 for it.

I already have a ton of nail polishes but I couldn't give up these colors! They are so beautiful and they were such a good deal! Each nail polish was going for $1.37 each! Is that cheap or what? From left to right I got Pink Chiffon, Really Rosy, & Touch of Mauve.

In total I only spent around $21! I was really happy at the end of the day, even though I really wasn't supposed to be shopping!

Christmas Presents!!

I know this is pretty late but I'd like to share what I got for Christmas from my family and friends. Christmas 2010 was by far one of the best Christmas I've had. I got to spend it with family, even though we didn't do much it was quality time spent together. I am so thankful for all these gifts and I definitely didn't expect this much!! I love my family and friends! You guys are the best!

This is all from one friend. A Hello Kitty blanket, Betsy Johnson Earrings, a Hello Kitty Calender and a Christmas card. So cute!! I love it!!

The Hello Kitty blanket is sooooo soft!! I love it! I somewhat don't like the fact that it's white because it will get dirty quick but it's okay, I'll just be careful. Hehe, see Mellie's head? I was taking the picture and she suddenly stuck her head over the blanket to look at me. So cute!!

A closeup look of the Betsy Johnson earrings! They are so cute and sparkly. It's cute for a night out or for a fancy event.

My siblings got me this Juicy Couture bag! So cute!! It's real leather so it has that leather smell that I'm not so fond of but I love the bag!! I'm so scared that I'm going to scratch it or ruin it.

They also got me this matching wallet to go with it. It's a velvet texture so it's really soft. I'd also have to be careful with this and not stain it or get it wet with anything or else it will get ruined. I love it! I've been wanting a new wallet.

My friend also got me this pink purse. I've been eying this purse for quite a while. I wanted to get this but there were no more and I guess my friend went to a different location to see if they had it and they did! I love the pink color and the ruffle look that it has.

Bows!! I love bows! My friends all know that I love bows and that is why one of my friend got me this shoulder bag. I love it!! It's cute for shopping or a day out where I don't have to where a purse.

My brother's girlfriend got me this Coach Wristlet. I've been wanting a new wristlet for quite a while now for night outs and she totally read my mind! I was really happy and excited to open this up. I would've just been happy with any wristlet..it didn't have to be Coach. What a great bonus!

Something else that's a bow!! This necklace is sooo cute! I love it!! I haven't gotten the chance to wear this yet but I definitely will!

Hello Kitty necklaces!! I love Hello Kitty and I love how it's pink! The gold one I stole from my friend through a white elephant game and the silver one with the cute pink bow is from one of my friends. I wear these at least once a week!

My Lady bug pet pillow! I wasn't expecting a present from this particular friend of mine. He's so sweet!! He was really excited to give this to me and I love it!! It's funny how he said "I better not see your dog chewing on it when I come over to your house' lol cause she probably would. But she hasn't yet but she does sniff it every so often.

This is an interesting Lava foot scrubber. I haven't gotten the chance to try this yet and I don't think I will for quite a while. I'm probably going to wait until summer when I wear a lot of sandals to use this. I'll probably make a review on this some time in the future after using it for a while.

Makeup!!! I love makeup and it's definitely my current obsession. The benefit get even powder is definitely one of my favorote powders I use. I was happy to receive it because I just hit pan on my old one. The eye shadows are cute and my friend knows I don't buy much eye shadows so it was nice of her to get it for me!

There were other presents that I didn't take pics of and I felt like it wasn't really worth showing. I love them all but this post is already long enough! I couldn't ask for more!

Gifts from Japan!

I love it when friend's go on vacation because they always bring back gifts! In this case, Mai (my friend from college) went back to Japan to see her mom and came back with gifts. She got me some cleansers from the Shiseido Perfect line, face masks and snacks! I haven't tried the cleansers yet but I definitely will and maybe I will share how I like it. I heard about it on a blog, but I forgot who it was! I wish I can recall but anyways, from one of the blogs that I've seen the review I read seemed very positive so I wanted to try this. I think they do sell these cleansers at Asian supermarkets but it was cheaper in Japan so I asked Mai to get it for me. I've also seen the Kose face masks at Asian supermarkets but they are pretty pricey for just 5. I'm pretty cheap and I don't think it's worth paying a lot for masks, so whenever I get the chance I always asks friends who are going to Asian countries to get me masks cause it's so cheap!! I'm excited to try the mask but I still have a lot from my friend who recently went to Korea. Of course you can't forget the snacks! They are so yummy!! I want to save them or at least eat them slowly but they are so good!

Unfortunately, Mai found a job in Japan and will be going back in a couple weeks. I'm so sad! She is an international student and I knew she will have to leave the U.S. after we finish school but I didn't think it will be this soon. I'm sad..but I'm very happy for her because she found a really great job that I'm so jealous about! Good Luck Mai!

Gifts from Korea & Japan!

I know I am so late at posting this but it's better late than never! My friend Sandra went to Korea and Japan in September. She was there for practically a month! I was so jealous you have no idea! She came back with all these gifts and of course I gave her money and asked to buy me a couple of things. They are so awesome!

The first thing that I really wanted was the Missha BB Cream!! Sandra ended up getting me two which I was really surprised because I was only expecting one. She got it in the number 21. It still is light on me, but mixing it with my Revlon PhotoReady in Golden Beige helps match my skin tone more. Golden Beige was my color during the summer and now that it's winter my skin got a lot lighter, so mixing it with the Missha BB Cream is perfect! I've only used the BB Cream a couple of times but so far I like it!

The Aritaum masks that she got me is awesome!! I love it! I think that I will do a review on it some time next month (hopefully! ^-^) and let you know how I use it. She got me 5 packs for 10 bucks and in each pack there are 10 masks. It's basically a dollar a mask! But I have another trick, which I will get into when I do my review!

Sandra also got me a lot of blotting sheets that I asked for, but truthfully I don't really use them even though I should because my face is super duper oily! Along with all the beauty stuff that she got me, it came with a lot of samples! All the stuff that I asked her to get are mentioned above and everything else are samples and free gifts from the shop. The mirror is so cool and the white Missha cosmetic bag is so cute! I ended up giving the white bag and one of the Missha BB Cream along with some masks to my brother's girlfriend for Christmas. Yes, I'm so generous! Lol! I really wanted to keep it for myself but I know that she likes it too so I decided to give it to her.

Last but not least! You can't forget the snacks! I love the KitKats from Japan! They are so different and so delicious. There were 3 different KitKat flavors, purple yam, royal tea, and aloe yoghurt. Omg!! Aloe yoghurt is definitely my favorite!!! It's so yummy! I know the flavors sound weird (I thought so too!~) but they are really good! I don't even know how to explain it. lol.


Also another candy that I can't stop thinking about because I want more is this glutinous riceball peanut candy. I do not know what the name of it because it's all written in Japanese but Sandra said it was the 'in' thing in Japan. On the outside it's a peanut butter coating and on the inside is the chewy rice part, kinda like the real thing! I only have one left and I'm trying to save it for as long as I can. Lol! So sad...I hope that I find this candy in Japantown!

Halloween Costumes!

So as many of you may know...Halloween is coming up!! I'm so excited! This will be the first year where I'm going all out and celebrating Halloween. For the past couple of years, every time I try to celebrate Halloween something bad happens..like literally! I always have the worst luck on Halloween but let's not talk about that...=( This year I'll be going to Vegas!! Yeah baby!! I'm so excited!

Since I'll be in Vegas this year for Halloween I definitely have to dress up! I never dress up for Halloween, unless you count the times when I was a little kid walking around the neighborhood as a witch every year. haha. How sad...Anyways, what is everyone going to be this year?

I'm dressing up this whole weekend..which means I'll have 3 costumes! Paying for flight and hotel already made a big fat hole in my pocket so that means my costumes aren't as extravagant as I'd want it to be, but it still works!

I'm not sure which days I'll be wearing these costumes but this is what I've come up with!

Costume #1: Devil


The dress I had in my closet already, a great way to save money! And I've only worn it once so I'm putting it to good use. I got the horns and the devil pitchfork at Spirit for $2.99 each. The shot glass garter I got at Wal-Mart for $3. I'll also be wearing stockings underneath with some heels.

Costume #2: Purple Witch


I got this dress for Vegas when I went back in July but ended up not wearing it. I just got a simple little hat at Spirit for $9.99 to go with the dress. I guess just like when I was little, I'm going to be a witch again! Haha but this time a more mature, sexier and cuter version!

Costume #3: Lady Gaga


This is my take on the Lady Gaga costume. I didn't want to go to the extreme and pay for much for her crazy outfits, so I did something along the line of her. I didn't want to do the blonde wig with the blonde hair bow so instead I got a huge bow which I absolutely love! I got the bow at Spirit for $7.99 and the top I got at my work place for $9.99. I'll also be wearing stockings with this outfit that comes up above my knees with a bow in the end.

I'm so excited I finally have all my costumes! Now I have to pack but I'm dreading it so bad! I wish everyone a fun, exciting and safe Halloween! =)

Victoria Secret Haul!

I haven't shopped at Victoria Secret in the longest time! But these past two weeks I suddenly got into their fragrances again! So first off I got some things from their Pink collection. Since I'm a member of Pink Nation, which is free for everyone to join at VSpink.com, they had a deal where you get a Pink Tee for $5 with any Pink Purchase. I HAD to get the shirt because it was so cheap! 5 bucks is a really good deal because full price is around $20.


After walking around Victoria Secret for the longest time I really didn't know what I wanted to get within the Pink line. I was going to get the original size of this Pink With a Splash Mist in Pretty and Pure which is 8.4 oz because they had a 2/$22 deal. This deal is still going on btw, but I decided to go for the little travel size instead because I wasn't sure if I was going to use the whole thing. The little travel size is 2.5 oz. I've been using it for a couple days now and I love it!! I wish I have gotten the bigger one but it's okay cause there will be a lot more Pink deals for you if you're a member of Pink Nation.


So here's the tee for $5! It's cute and comfortable. I think it's really cute to wear with sweats/PJs.

My sister ordered some things online and got me these! She's so sweet! I've been eying these items for weeks now but has been stopping myself from purchasing them because I really need to save up!!


This first fragrance is the Beauty Rush line in Plumdrop Body Double Mist. I've heard about this from Bubzbeauty and had to go see what she was talking about! It smells really good and it's not overly sweet either. I had to spray it on myself right when I got it. Hehe.


So if you look at the previous picture the bottle looks half and half, half conditioner and half fragrance. Before spritzing it on yourself you shake it well and it becomes mixed like this. The color is really pretty as well as the scent!


Last but not least this cute little gift set!! I saw this at the actual store and I just had to have it. More like the clutch I had to have, hehe. It's so cute!! You can use this clutch for makeup or even for a night out so that you don't have to lug around your big purse. I originally wanted the darker pink one which was in their new frangrance line Bombshell but they didn't have anymore of it when my sister ordered it online so this Sexy Little Things Noir was my second choice. When I finally got it I fell in love with it! The light pink color of the clutch is sooooooo cute and I love the frangrance. Thing is...I still want the bombshell one!! Should I get it too? Is it doing too much? Man..I want it..hehe. We'll have to see cause I really have to save up!! I'm going to Vegas at the end of October and I have bills to pay...=(

Anywho...I really suggest those who isn't a member of Pink Nation to sign up!! It's free and there's no catch to it. You get a free panty every so often and good deals on Pink items. Here's the link so go join now!! Pink Nation

Icing & Macy's Haul!

Yesterday I went shopping with my girlfriends at Stoneridge Mall in Pleasonton and we came across some really good bargains. Although I shouldn't be spending I felt like it was such a good deal I couldn't pass it up! Everything was totally worth it!

Icing had a 5 for $10 deal and I went crazy! There were so many things I wanted but I had to hold back. I kept thinking it's only $2 but then again $2 adds up so I was like okay...calm down! Lol, sucks but I guess I did good.

Dummy me, I didn't even realize it was a bottle opener until a lot later but it was to a great surprise! Lol, Keychain + bottle opener yeah baby!

Eiffel Tower Keychain again. This time it's not a bottle opener hehe but it's still soo cute!

Bow Hair clips

Bow earrings. I got two of these.

Pearl Bow Bracelet. I got two of these as well. It's a set for me and one for my friend.

How it looks worn on the hand.

It's so cute how it looks like a set but it's not! I love love love the bracelet!

So all of the items didn't add up to just 5 but it was more! I did one 5 for $10 deal and then had to split another with my friend in which I got 2 items and she had 3 and we just split the 10 bucks between us. Love shopping with friends!

Macy's had a lot of sales going on plus our Buy $30 you get $10 off coupon!

Got this ring for $3. I love it!!

This necklace was only $2!! Can you believe that? It's so cute!

This dress was only $3!! Where can you find a dress for $3? lol, I was really happy and I can wear the dress for a picnic or something.

Have you noticed I love the Eiffel Tower and Bows? Love love love!! <3 =)
