November Favorites



Wafer Sunglasses | Amazon $5

Floral Gold Watch | ASOS (Aldo) $28

Kate D Lipstick | Target $5 

Buying things either on sale or at a decent low price is literally the best feeling in the world. I LOVE ME A GOOD BARGAIN! This months favorites contains my 3 most loved- cheap items. My wafer sunglasses, my floral gold watch and perfect nude lipstick. 

I was looking for a knockoff of the RayBan Clubmaster sunglasses because there's no way in hell I am spending $100+ on a pair of sunglasses. Come on- get real! I could use that money for food! Anyways, I found these on Amazon and I think they're a pretty decent pair of sunglasses! Only problem is that it doesn't have all that stuff to protect your eyeballs so.. I guess I get what I paid for :/ Nevertheless, I think they're absolutely adorable and it's good to have a good cheap pair. If it breaks of gets damage.. no harm done! 

When I stumbled upon this on ASOS, I was in shock! I've been looking for a watch for a really long time and not only was this gorgeous, it was on sale! A lot of watches nowadays are $50+ and I'm so glad I got these below $30. I've been wearing it non-stop! It's a little chunky, but hey- fashion right?! 

I talked in my previous post Lipstick Jungle about how much I loved a good nude-lip. It's just so effortless and classic. You can never go wrong. You can read more about it here.

Hope you guys liked my favorites this month, what have you been enjoying? I'd love to know!

Girl Online, Going offline xx


It finally came! Needless to say, I was very excited when I saw this sitting in my mailbox! I've been dying to read this novel by one of my favorite YouTubers, Zoella. Honestly, I finished the book the very same night. Ha! Don't judge. I'm just a fast reader. Anyway, the book was very different and similar to what I was expecting. I know she mentioned that there was anxiety in it, but it definitely opened up my eyes on what panic attacks are really like. And for that, I was genuinely interested. I personally don't suffer from panic attacks, but I do know what it's like to feel anxious. 
It's refreshing to read about it in a book, is all I'm trying to say.

As for the rest of the book, I won't give too much away but it surprised me. I only wish that the ending had a little bit more depth. Like perhaps an extra chapter to wrap everything up would have been nice. Nevertheless, it was a pretty decent book. It didn't make me ball my eyes out like The Fault in our Star  or The Silver Linings Playbook but it was good. 

If I'm totally being honest, I would give it a 3/5 rating. 



BTW. Hope everyone is having a nice Thanksgiving! 
I'll be gobbling up some delicious mash potatoes in the evening.

Lipstick Jungle




Hey ma, I'm becoming a woman! I finally bought some lipstick! Typically, I use tinted lip balms but recently I really started getting into lipsticks. I've always been scared to purchase lipstick because I just didn't have the confidence to wear it. I felt like super awesome girls only wore lipstick, but now it's totally cool! Even though it's kind of high maintenance, it's still great to wear! I think the pop of color really makes a difference. 


I started with a nude color(08) to get use to the idea of wearing lipstick. I didn't want to worry and feel super self-conscious about it. I wanted something easy- so that even if I forgot that I had it on it and accidentally rubbed it, it wouldn't smear and look dumb on my face. Which brings me to my next point, if you're going to go with something that isn't your natural color, BE CAREFUL. Once that thing smears, there's no going back! I suggest maybe using lipliner then apply the lipstick.

What's Winter?

Winter doesn't really exist in LA. Sure the nights are colder, but it's not cold enough to start wearing scarves. I wish it was.. but unfortunately we're blessed with amazing weather. Lately it's been about 65-70 degrees and I have been loving wearing my bohemian inspired pants! I bought these at Target and they're honestly like the most amazing pair of pants ever! The only problem is that it does hug quite tight to you know- the cooch. But I just gotta wear a long shirt to cover it! Ha!

Bohemian Pants: Target

Where the hell have I been?!


UM. HELLO. WHERE THE HELL HAVE I BEEN?! I just started watching The Walking Dead and I am seriously HOOKED. I cannot believe I didn't start watching this sooner! Given that I'm only on the second season but still! I knew this show was going to give me anxiety but anxiety well worth having! Every character is so dynamic and the cast chemistry is so great. The scenes are so intense! Anyways, I can't wait to be watching more! I would definitely recommend it to everyone! It's definitely not as gruesome.. wait. yea it's gruesome but just watch it okay?! Trust x

Busy Bee

I'm sorry I haven't been blogging much! School is seriously kicking my ass. I only have myself to blame.. so stupid of me to take on 5 classes. I thought I could do it, but I'm in WAY over my head. Thankfully we're halfway done. I just need to get through the next 4 weeks!

Anyways, I'll blog again soon! I have some exciting new posts coming :)

until then! x

Mediocre Hallloween

Halllloo everyone! (see what I did there) This past weekend was Halloween, and I don't know about you guys but my halloween was kind of lame! I went out to a bar in Pomona with my cousins and some of friends. We were planning on going to a club but the line was wayy to long and it was raining! There was no way we were going to STAND IN THE RAIN to get in! So we found shelter at the bar next door. The bar was decent, however the music was kind of awful. I don't mean to hate on the music but it wasn't really music I could dance to. I was always off beat and the tunes weren't catchy enough for me to bust my hump. I was glad to be out with cousins and friends.. but the environment could have been better!




Hope all of you had a better Halloween than I did! 
Until next time! 

*Oh! if you were wondering.. I was a boxer. Ha!
