Unique Hotels

Everyone is trying to travel during the last hurrah of summer before fall, and I have the travel bug, so here's some interesting hotels I found online by Preferred Hotels:

beautiful hotel on the beach in Sao Paolo, Brazil


This fancy castle-like hotel on Lake Como

this beautiful bed and breakfast style house in Sonoma, Ca

This fancy but inexpensive hotel in Thailand

PS- you know they're amazing because they all have spas oooh~

Pretty Fall shopping list

It's back to school time, which means clothes shopping right?!?!

Saw this cute dress at Aqua at Bloomingdale's but didn't buy it- under $90, yaye?

saw this at Banana, cute but I have a similar dress at Madewell that I love and it shrunk in the wash :(

saw this at banana, liked the pattern, but the fit was weird

Saw this brand Chelsea28 at Nordstrom- love this!

saw this brand Wayf at Nordstrom, under $70! Love this too :) 

(Already bought these) Guess booties at DSW sooo cute

have a jacket similar to this from Target, and I need another one, I love it

so happy for fall, cold weather, dark clothing, and layers :D

Favorite Makeup Palettes

With the recent release of the new Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 palette, I was thinking about my favorite makeup palettes I have, and ones I currently want, here's some of them:

Here's the Naked Basics 2 by Urban Decay...just got this one, excited to try it out :D

This is the limited Edition Bobbi Brown Sand Eye Palette at Sephora oooh~ pretty, don't have this one :(


Don't have this one either :( the chocolate bar by Too Faced, actually made with chocolate in it

I don't have this one either- The Lorac Pro palette that everyone on youtube raves about

I do have this one but I save it for special occasions :) the Marc Jacobs palette

and my everyday favorite- Naked 3 with rose gold tones

The Nars God Made Woman palette- I recently tried this one and like it, but the colors are very dark

and the Too faced Natural at Night palette- I have this one, but don't use this brand very often...I don't know why. I just like the urban decay metallic ones better ususally.

yaye makeup :)

Aerie haul

Love going to my favorite store, Aerie! I had a 20% coupon so here's what I got:

I'm glad it's not close by, because every time we go to the one in Cerritos I need to budget (about every 6 months) because I always buy a ton of their stuff :) I love the Christmas cuddly pjs especially.

Aerie now makes body butter! yes! smells amazing and so hydrating :)

these leggings with cute zippers on the ankle

the nightgowns are so soft and comfy...even though I usually have to put a robe or a sweatshirt on around the house- it gets cold!

scarves :D

more cute scarves yes

these sweats are sooo comfortable oh my goodness

always need tank tops for shirts that are too sheer or too short

a cute yellow tshirt! yaye!

I also got lipgloss, 2 cute boxers, and an undie set! but I couldn't find photos of all the stuff online :(

scarves are my favorite accessory.

Fun Weekend Trip Ideas

Here's some ideas I had for great long weekend trips. Most of these places are relatively easy to get to from Southern California. Enjoy!


Beverly Hills Wilshire- renting a cabana here for Matt's birthday. hopefully it will be super fun :)

Big Bear for the colder months...can't wait to snowboard here!

Cabo Capella Pedregal- this hotel is ranked #1 in Cabo: it has plunge pools in every room, a spa, and a swim up bar at the pool yessss

Catalina Island- haven't been here since 6th grade and we stayed in tents, ew.

Las Vegas- love Cesars, Aria, and Bellagio :) yaye!

Palm Desert- so much fun to go to the spa pool at the JW Marriott. 

Napa- Solage Calistoga

Hotel del Coronado in San Diego and exploring downtown SD, including the new Stone Brewery there

Bacara in Santa Barbara- miss my favorites: Freebirds, Blenders, and of course the Aerie store

Happy August~! :)
