My New Baby!

His name is Willis=) He is an 11 week old lab/golden retriever mix. He is so sweet and docile and as of now sleeping seems to be his favorite pass time. I cant wait to buy him so many things and spoil him like a real mommy (when I actually get money that is LOL) so anyways this was really random but I just wanted to show him to you guys because I was really excited.

Long Time No Blog

So I know Ive been super slacking on updating my blog and for those of you who watch my youtube videos I know there are a couple of videos I said I would put up pictures of stuff but I didnt. Well, for that I apologize.

It's reaching the end of the year and every procrastination has caught up with me! I am currently still working on trying to finish my 2 online classes which have been completely time consuming. I try to make videos as often as possible but there will definetly be a huge overflow of them starting over the summer.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Also, my collaboration channel: www.youtube.com/beauttiebabes is going to have a contest that I am very excited about! So, if you are interested in winning free prizes then stay on the look out for the contest video on that page or my personal one.

That's all for now I guess.

Outfit of the Day + Day at the Zoo: 4/3/10

thats my sister Sabrina











Hey guys=) So I went to Miami Metro Zoo today with my family. They had this little easter egg hunt area for the little kids which was the main reason we went (for my sister and her friend).

We ended up walking around the zoo till it closed at 5:30 and we had a good time. The weather was amazing today. I did get sun burned on my shoulders though. Oh well, better than the freezing weather weve had for TOO LONG!

Im hoping Fernando will come over a little later to watch a movie too. woot<3

So here are some outfit of the day pics and some random zoo pics as well=)

Frustrated with Sinful Colors

So I wanted to paint my nails today...

I have recently fallen in love with Sinful Colors nail polish because of it's inexpensive price and it's surprisingly great quality.

However...

Im very clumsy and I managed to drop one of my bottles. (Mind you, ive dropped nail polish bottles of different brands hundreds of times before and they have been perfectly fine)but Sinful colors decideds to be a jerk and needless to say a crash and splatter later im picking up the reminence of my brand new never been used nail polish bottle up off the floor.

So, after scrubbing my tile for half an hour I have yet to remove all of the hot pink nail polish from the grout. (Any suggestions?)

Ive now lost a perfectly good brand new nail polish, run out of nail polish remover and broke one of my nails in the process.

Ive been thinking...is the cheap price worth the risk of losing the nail polish and ruining the floor?

What do you think?

Good News

So, I made business cards the other day that came out really great. It took me FOREVER to make them at Staples (like and hour or so) but they finally came out nice and im really happy with them. I actually had a client last Saturday who needed makeup done for a dress rehersal and I gave her some cards to pass out. Tomorrow I am doing makeup for her and another lady that is part of her dance company. Should be fun but I must say im kinda nervous because ive never met this woman before but im meeting them up at her house. weird?? What do yout think?

Color of the Week: OPI Pink-ing of You

I love this color! It is a perfect shade for spring.

Pros: Great for everyday

Cons: Takes several coats to make it really opaque

Would I recommend this color? Si si!!=) Especially for those who are looking for a lighter everyday color or a beautiful spring color.
