Father's Day ideas

So it's that time of year to tell dad how appreciated he really is!
My sister claims that my dad is always easier to shop for, but I disagree! He likes golf, so it's easy to buy golf stuff, but the problem is- he already has all the golf stuff he needs!

So here's some other great ideas I cooked up:

Shutterfly card- great idea for photos! and less than $5 :)

Fossil- watch collection display case- sold on Zappos (about $150...) I did splurge on this one year and my dad still uses it every day.

Chuao chocolate- men love chocolate! Don't let them fool you haha

Baseball game- I actually went with my dad one year and it was super fun!

:) don't forget to eat all the unhealthy food like peanuts, popcorn and hot dogs!

Massage envy -this place is addicting!

So those were all my great ideas this year, enjoy! :)

What's in My Makeup Bag

Here's another 'what's in my bag' post.

Recently I have been going through my makeup and jewelry stash, getting ready to pack or clean up before our move, and here's some products I always have and tend to repurchase:


Naked palette by Urban Decay- cruelty free! :)

Clinique Moisture surge- everyday foundation routine

Laura Mercier "Matte Radiance" Baked powder (it's shimmery)

I also use their blush in a bronze color

MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick

MAC Paint Pot in Painterly (great for keeping your eye shadow on all day)

MAC gel eyeliner

and of course- brushes

And at CVS I buy their latex free, triangle makeup sponges

YAYE! :)
