I got those adorable Floral and...

Review: St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub - Oil Free with Salicylic Acid Acne Medication

Today I'm sharing a review on a staple product in my skincare regimen that I've been using for years: St. Ives Apricot Scrub: Blemish Control edition! Ever since I started really taking care of my skin I've always used St. Ives Apricot scrubs for two reasons: 1. They're SO affordable (about $4 at a Drugstore) and 2. They really do work!

Nail Look - Light Blue & Silver Triangles: Geometric - Perfect for Winter Glam

I did my nails last week in a cute contrasting geometric design (Hipster?) and I think it turned out Sassy! I used my new Borrowed & Blue and No Place Like Chrome by Essie! If I would have properly shaped my nails and didn't paint the base while surfing the Internet, it probably would have looked much better! Next time I will make my index finger a triangle as well. This look will be perfect for December! The colors remind me of Snowflakes....

TopShop: Sexy Celebrity Inspired Dresses for Under $100 - Fab Finds!

Every few weeks I tend to visit Topshop to check out new arrivals of current Fashion must-haves. The great thing about Topshop is not is everything on the rack 'L.A. Haute' but most of these actual pieces you will see on Celebrities, as this store is a celeb-favorite! Lucky for celebs they get dibs on all the pre-season fashion selections and we are left months behind trying to play catch up. Trying to 'keep up' with celebrities is...
