Love Letters and Lace

I'm not the most social of people. I have my small group of close friends and I've always been content with that. I'm not the kind of person who strives to be friends with everyone and this has never been a problem for me until lately... Let's be honest, if we're stuck taking a boring class or doing a boring job, it makes it better to have a few friends around just to keep you company. I used to have that. But not this semester. I find myself sitting in class alone and then wandering around trying to find things to do during my breaks but not having anything to do or anyone to spend them with. And it's not that I'm not trying. I'm making an effort to talk to more people in my classes in hopes of having a group that maybe I can sit with so I'm not completely alone. But when everyone has already made their solid group of friends, they're not really all that willing to let you in, I guess. And I guess thats why I'm writing this post righ

After a nice long winter break, I'm officially back at school. In a way, I'm excited to continue learning and getting closer to finally graduating and being able to work in my field. But on the other hand, and lets face it, I'm for sure not alone with this: I just want to keep being lazy haha. No more late night Netflix binges, sleeping in and spending the day baking at home in my pyjamas. Oh well. I'm determined to make this semester my best yet. Lets add that to my 2016 New Year's Resolutions! Of course, I also want to make time to actually keep updating my blog on a regular basis. So these are my goals for this semester. Anyway, just thought I'd give you all a little update. I have a 7 hour lab awaiting me, so I should probably go get ready! xo PS. I have a ton of new product reviews that I'm just dying to post on here. I've been spending some time on Influenster lately and it's really brought out my love for reviewing. If you don't

Oh my god. After what felt like the longest wait of all time, the first episode of Pretty Little Liars season 6B "Of Late I Think of Rosewood" finally aired. They're back, 5 years later and the story continues. I have been looking forward to this episode since the shocking (and to many, disappointing) huge reveal of the identity of A.  There was so much hype building up to this episode (and, I mean, no kidding. You answer the biggest question of the entire show and then break for months... Obviously we're excited). Did the episode live up to the hype? Well... In my opinion... Not really.  It starts off with the girls reuiniting in Rosewood after being summoned by the court (and Alison, of course) in order to determine if they should release Charlotte. The girls look great; new cities, new jobs, new hair... A lot has changed in these 5 years. But they're not doing as well as it seems... I'm looking forward to seeing more about how the girls have been c

Hey everyone! In case you were needing a dose of inspiration today, here are some amazing quotes to keep you going. I love reading things like these; they honestly make me feel uplifted and bring up my mood if I'm feeling down. If you're struggling or you're feeling down, things will get better! Keep your chin up darling! xo

I can sum up this mascara in 2 words: Holy Grail. Of course, you're all here for a full review of it, so I'll give you more than just two words. I first tried this mascara a little over a year ago when I got a mini sized one with the Too Faced "Everything Nice' limited edition holiday palette and I fell in love. It is the best mascara if you want dramatic, fuller and longer lashes. I've tried many mascaras and they all promise to both add length and volume, but usually only manage one. This mascara actually does both. I notice my lashes are noticeably thicker and longer. My makeup looks are so so much more dramatic and pretty when I use this mascara, I swear by it. It is not a waterproof formula (I'm not sure if it comes in a waterproof formulation at all) but that was not a problem. I never had any issues with smudging or even black raccoon eyes in the rare occasion I shed a tear or sweat. (of course, you will get some nice black raccoon eyes if you sh

Note: The first half of this post is a general review, mainly intended for people who have not yet watched the show and contains NO spoilers. The second half is a review of the final episodes and does contain spoilers.  I just spend the past couple days binge watching Scream Queens. In my defense, I recently got my wisdom teeth removed and thus needed some laid back recovery time. It is also very, very addictive. I am a huge fan of American Horror Story, so when I saw that Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk were working on another show, I was definitely intrigued. I decided to give it a shot. Overall, I'm pretty happy I did. The show has not yet been renewed for a second season, but I'm really hoping it will be, partially because I did get pretty invested in the story, but mostly because it ended on quite the cliffhanger, as season finales tend to. When I first began watching the show, I was sure I liked it. I didn't find the characters to be particularly likeable (and ye
