How's your weekend? -- Edible Arrangements

Hi everyone!!!
I'm really sorry for being MIA for almost a week.
There were so many things I had to get done. The past week was definitely a busy one.

Anyways, have you guys ever tried Edible Arrangements?

Photobucket

Since Valentine's Day is almost here, this is a good way to show your significant other how much they mean to you.
These arrangements are super cute and pretty, you wouldn't want to eat them. Haha.

Photobucket

The lovely Angela from Campus Book Rentals sent me a box of chocolate dipped strawberries and bananas.
The price range for this arrangement is from $25-$79, depending on the size and which fruits you want.

Photobucket

I loved it. My family and I ate this in less than an hour. Haha.
The strawberries are huge and the
chocolate is so rich and creamy.
I think I like the strawberries more than the bananas but they were both delicious, hands down.

Photobucket

Have you guys ever tried Edible Arrangements? Have you ever sent one out?

Love is the flower you've got to let grow.

Photobucket

Charlize Theron!

Photobucket

She looked absolutely stunning tonight!
I loved everything about this whole ensemble.

Her Dior dress looks beautiful on her. It's simple but sooooo elegant.
I like the deep front cut. It's sexy but not too much.
I also like the bow-like detail on the side. It's very feminine.
The train of her dress just adds even more to it.
She finishes of her look with her white Givenchy shoes.

If I can wear this to prom, I would! I can't even explain how much I love this dress.

Photobucket

She went for a simple makeup. Nude lips. Light pink blush.
I LOVE HER HAIR! Side bun. Cartier rhinestone headband and jewelry.

This whole look is PERFECTION! I just love it.


Did you guys watch the 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards? Who was your favorite look of the night?!

Campus Book Rentals: Rent Your Textbooks and Save Money for College

Photobucket

Being a senior in high school, I have been thinking about college A LOT!
There's so many factors to consider: deciding on which university, dorms, work, and most of all BOOKS!

My 2 older sisters are in college right now.
So I know for a fact that books cost a lot of money.
Thankfully, Campus Book Rentals is a website where you can rent absolutely any book colleges require for an affordable price!



*Watch the video above for more information on Campus Book Rentals. And for dancing entertainment from the lovely grandmas! :)*

-Save 40-90% off of book store prices
-Free shipping both ways
-You are allowed to highlight in the textbooks
-Flexible renting periods
-30-Day Risk-Free Returns

Also, with every textbook rented, Campus Book Rentals donates a portion of the proceeds to Operation Smile. Their goal this year is to save at least 1,000 lives.
Operation Smile is an organization that performs cleft lip surgeries for children whose families can't afford it.

This is definitely a win-win for all of us. You can save up on money while changing lives at the same time!

Product Review: Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo

I have mentioned before that I'm in need of a new dry shampoo.
I finished my Suave Dry Shampoo a long time ago and ever since I've been doing some research on a new good quality dry shampoo.

It's not healthy to wash your hair everyday so I usually turn to dry shampoo to keep the oiliness to a minimum.
I also use it on days when I wake up late and I barely have enough time to shower.

Photobucket

Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo
Net Wt. 7 oz (198 g)
$5.99

I know you're busy keeping up with that social life! So don't waste precious time in the bathroom, just use CLEAN FREAK. Get that perfect hair (and the perfect guy!) before all the other girls. Expect more room on your social calendar because this salon formula dry shampoo will have you and your hair ready for a night out on the town.

REFRESH/INSTANTLY/NO WATER

Application: Spray generously on roots and throughout hair. Brush through to diffuse powder and watch it absorb any excess oils. Style as desired and enjoy your newly freshened hair.

Photobucket

Clean Freak quickly absorbs almost all of the oil from your unwashed hair.
It feels very light and fresh on my roots.
During application, it will make your hair turn grey but as you brush through it, it will quickly disappear.
It will give your hair a lite matte finish and it leaves it shiny and super smooth.
It doesn't leave any white residue like other dry shampoos.

Photobucket

It has a spray pump, so it's really easy to use.
All you have to do is spray everywhere and you're done.
It also has a white cap that keeps it tightly shut and prevents any leakage or vaporization.

Photobucket

I hope you guys found this review very helpful. This is my newest favorite product!


What dry shampoo are you guys currently using?


Hair brings one's self-image into focus; it is vanity's proving ground. Hair is terribly personal, a tangle of mysterious prejudices.

A Hardcore Hunger Gamer, I Am!

My latest obsession is The Hunger Games Trilogy!
(Thanks to my sister!)
I started reading the first book, The Hunger Games, in the beginning of winter break and I totally fell in love with the whole story.

Photobucket

I just finished Catching Fire last night. And now, I'm just waiting for my sister to finish Mockingjay! I want to read it alreadyyyyy.

I still can't decide whether I'm for Peeta or Gale.
I think for the first 2 books, I'm for Peeta. But I love how Gale will protect Katniss's family in a heartbeat. I need to see more of him though!



Look at their Vanity Fair photoshoot!
It just makes me even more excited for the movie.
