Vanessa Hudgen’s Love Heals Necklace

Vanessa Hudgen’s has been spotted out wearing the Love Heals Leather Necklace on multiple occasions. I just love the bohemian look of this dark brown leather necklace with charms. I was going to try to do a Do-It-Yourself Post with this necklace, but the project ended up being a lot harder than it looked. Instead, I found a very similar style necklace at H&M for only $7.95. See the two styles below!

5 Favorite Things Friday

I have been on a beauty buying kick lately so I only thought it fitting to do my Five Favorite Things Friday post on, but of course, beauty. Below are a few of my recent (and future) purchases and a few of my favs!

1. Anastasia Lash Lifting Mascara.  I have been hearing a lot of rave reviews about this mascara lately. It is supposed to perfectly coat each lash and offer zero clumping. This is also a favorite mascara of Kim Kardashian.
   
2. Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer. This moisturizer, with its light diffusing pigments and shear color, is great at reflecting light and making your skin look and feel younger. I wear this moisture underneath my makeup daily. It’s also great to wear in place of foundation on those hot summer days. Another bonus is it has SPF 15, which will help protect your skin.
   
3. Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer. I have been buying primers lately left and right trying to find the perfect one. I currently am liking Stila’s hydrating primer, but this primer by Smashbox is next on my list. This product promises to “create a perfect canvas” for your skin. It contains antioxidants and vitamins and claims help prevent collagen destruction and fill in fine lines.
   
4. Mac Face and Body Foundation. I have been using this foundation for over a year now after seeing a recommendation by Makeup by Mario and I love it. It is incredibly moisturizing and lightweight, and works perfectly in the winter and summer.  It contains several emollients to help condition and smooth. My skin always looks flawless. This is also a favorite of Nicole Richie.
   
5. LipFusion Lip Plump. I haven’t tried this lip plumper yet, but it is definitely on my list. This product claims to be “infused with revolutionary technology to plump lips instantly.” It is designed to use the body’s natural moisture to help plump up dry, cracked lips. It also has won the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, plus it has excellent reviews.

Bargain Finds From Etsy

One of my favorite online stores to peruse to find unique, one-of-a-kind items is Etsy. Etsy, for those of you that don’t know, features endless amounts of unique, homemade and/or vintage treasures, which can by sold by just about anyone. Think Ebay but without the bidding/auction format and with a much more eclectic twist. While browsing online yesterday, I compiled a list of a few of my favorites.

1. The first item that caught my eye was this cute tunic dress. I am loving the floral pattern, it is so perfect for spring and summer. It reminds me a lot of Free People style clothing. While not the cheapest item on Etsy, this dress by plumprettysugar was so adorable it had to be featured. Other items from this seller include floral dresses, handcrafted make-up/jewelry holders, and kimono robes.

 Tunic Dress/Top by plumprettysugar, $68

2. I’m so on a feather earring kick right now if you didn’t already know from my DIY post a few weeks back. Below are two great pair of statement  feather earrings by CosmoBeets that would definitely have you standing out in a crowd. This seller features an array of feather earrings, as well as unique headbands, necklaces, and leather cuffs.

 Bullet Shell and Tyed Dyed Feather Earrings by CosmoBeets, $34.00

Gold Leather Feather Earrings by CosmoBeets, $23.00

4. The last items that caught my eye were by pink80sgirl. This seller features handcrafted glass rings, pendants, and earrings. I just love the antique style necklace and ring featured below.

 Dior Key Necklace by pink80sgirl, $15.00
