Fixing Bad Decisions!

Okay, I have a confession. If you read the post below you already know that I bought this shirt on sale for $5. Great deal....but I can see why it was on sale./=


So it doesn't look that bad in the picture. And because of that and the fact that there was a HUGE line for the dressing rooms, I just bought it without trying it on. So then because the clothing fairy just hates me so much, its a really ugly shirt on. Then thinking that I had nothing to lose, I just decided to cut the sleeves off to just wear it as a tank top. Heres where I cut the sleeves off.



After I cut both the sleeves off, I tried on my new tanktop! And SUPRISE! I love it!!(= I'm so happy that it all worked out! Heres the finished product!:

With the magic of scissors, an ugly top got turned into a cute bohemian babydoll tank!

Forever21/H&M Haul!

Just a quick small haul! I went to the mall on Saturday just to get some basics. But OFCOURSE..I bought a couple other things!(=

So at Forever21 I got this creme lace tunic which because of my size could be used as a dress but not long enough to wear without tights! I would have got size Medium to wear a bit baggy and as a dress but they only had size small/large/= But still adorable tunic/dress!(=

H&M! Just went in there to get a simple black button up cardigan. BUT...this white long sleeve shirt which was on sale for $5 caught my eye. It used to be $30! And I just got earrings(=

Lush. Worth a try?

Hello loves(=
Just a quick question. Is Lush worth a try? On youtube and blogspot I see Lush hauls/reviews left and right! I've been to one Lush while on vacation before I heard all this rave but left as soon as I saw the prices. But as fate has it when I am no where near a Lush, I'm dying to try some! The most heard of from Lush would have to be Rockstar, Honey I Washed The Kids and Comforter Bar? Right? Ugh, if only I took a few whiffs at the store to see what they were like! So I'm thinking of ordering some but have a few pros and cons running through my mind. I mean what if Lush just smells plain nasty to me?
So back to my original question: Is Lush worth it? And what do you recommend?
P.S. If anyone wants to send a sample, I'd be ever so grateful!(=
Till next time!

China Glaze: Lubu Heels

Hello again! Its Monday again. =( Can't wait till next week when I only have a four day school week! Anyways, I have this thing where I redo my nails every weekend. So you can expect new nail pictures everyweek!(=
So this weeks choice was China Glaze Lubu Heels. I had received this in a swap. Lubu Heels is supposedly inspired by the famous Christian Louboutin heels. You know, the ones with the red soles? So the nail polish is red glitters with black nail polish. You should be aware that its not exactly going to be jet black with red glitters but it still is a pretty vampy color.(= With two coats, my nails didn't look totally black. So the result was burgandy looking nails from far away. But what is so pretty about the nails is that the red glitters show up so prettily in the sunlight! So without further ado, heres some pictures!
