Bath And Body Works: Favorites

I ordered some lotion and body gels from their online site and it was pretty good. This is my favorite smell of what I just ordered and I wanted to share with you all. This is call Black Raspberry Vanilla, and only reason why I am sharing this is because they discontinued this smell in the stores around me, which I don't know why. It smells exactly like raspberries, you can smell some vanilla in it. Is smells really good and I really love it. I got 3 for free.

This is called Secret WonderLand, it has a fruity but also a neutral smell. I cant use certain smells because I actually have a strong smelling sense and because of that my nose gets sensitive to strong perfume and lotion smells, so this really works well for me.

If you ever use to buy the Apple Enchanted from Victoria Secret, and loved it like I did you'd love this. Apple Enchanted was my all time favorite !! So when they discontinued Apple Enchanted I was seriously devastated. But this came out in Bath and Body works it smells EXACTLY like Apple Enchanted. It smells soooo good! Its for the Fall collection called Honey Autumn Apple.

Pink Chiffon is only my favorite in the lotion, I wouldn't buy their spray or body gel. I honestly cant explain this smell because its not fruity, it has those perfume smell to it.



I'd recommend you to buy these and try them out they are like amazing! If you ever consider of actually ordering off from Bath and Body Works online I'd recommend using this promo code: RMNHoliday12 this coupon will take off $10 off of $30, but which you would still get the buy 3 get 3 free. And if you feel you would save more off of a 20% off everything you can use this promo code : RMNHOLIDAY.

I hope you all enjoy =) bye loves

6 Days Until Christmas!!

Closer and closer we get to Christmas and still no ideas for a gift? Just bake some cookies and decorate each cookie with special designs. If you don't know how to make cookies from scratch or too lazy to go through all of the steps, just go buy the ready dough at your local foods store. brest cookies to decorate are sugar cookies only because it bakes flat and even but if you wanted to bake chocolate chip cookies you can also decorate it too. If you was to make chocolate chip cookies from scratch you can replace the chocolate chips with the peppermint kisses candies because that way the cookie will bake and have that nice Christmas color in it therefore you wont have to decorate.
Packaging comes easy because you can buy a metal container from target in their $1 section usually located in the front of the store and I think the containers shouldn't cost more than $3. In the container you can use some plastic sheets they sell in target also, or even in the dollar tree, they have holiday theme sheets. All you so is place the sheet inside the container and place all the cookies inside it, use the hanging part if the sheet to cover the top of the cookies then close the container with the top. you can always top it off with a cute bow and a tag To & From.

Happy Holidays and Thank you for reading!

7 Days Until Chrismas!

7 days till the best time of the year and you're out of ideas, another great thing to give are candles, BUT not any kind of candles, Diamond Candles. If you haven't heard of them yet, let me be the first to introduce you to something so great. Diamond candles is a company where they sell candles for $25 a piece, they are this tall glass jar of candle made out of soy wax which are made from soy plants. The BEST part about this kind of candle is that it comes with a surprise inside. You have to let it burn up to 8 hours to get that surprise gift. And the gift? A DIAMOND RING! your diamond candle comes with a special ring inside, worth of either $10, $100, $1000, or even $5,000! I had ordered me one before and my ring was only worth about $20 :(
But even if its a $10 ring its a Beautiful ring for sure. I know that if you were to order this gift today it would deliver to your house within 2-3 day, and just in time to gift wrap and all!

if you are interested to buy you, your family or your friend a diamond candle you can click here: Diamond Candles.

I hope you find this pretty helpful, here is a $5 off that expires 12/25/12,

Nail TiME!

I thought it would be fun to start showing off my nails every time I get them done. ONLY because I am a Licensed Nail Tech and I like to show off my nails because I do change them every 4 to 5 days. So the color I have on is by Revon call Dreamer, which is this nice sky blue. And on my index and pinky fingers, I painted on the Nicole by OPI call Love Your Life, and the thing with this polish is that its kind of hard to scoop the hearts up, so you'll have to literally try to scoop up the hearts without getting too much of the clear coat onto the brush because when to scrap the clear off the hearts might fall off the brush. So what I do is I try to put the heart on the side of the bottle, scrap off the clear, then get the heart onto the brush to put onto my nails. And last 3 fingers, my ring. middle and thumb, I used Millionaire by Nailtine, I put on two coats of it because it looks more richer and bright that way and the blue peeks out which looks even prettier. The OPI was $8 and the Revon was $5 from target, and the Nailtine was from my Ispy bag for the month of November. I'll probably do more post on nails and maybe even do nails tutorial soon. stay tune everyone :)

8 Days Until Christmas!!

8 days left and you're still clueless? Another great thing to do is a home made gift. If you're not crafty then this isn't for you. But nowadays there are so much DIY projects out there. You can Google it up or simply just search it on YouTube. One of my favorite DIYs are the clothing ones, where you renovate your old clothings and make it into something new. From studding or even cutting up and making cut-outs It is a great idea.
But I don't want you to use your old clothes to give for Christmas! Oh no, I have another gift idea in mind. If you're a crafter you are very well known with Michaels crafting store, A.C. Moore, Joanns, and whatever else you know. But at Michaels and A.C. Moore, they sell wooden boxes and picture frames. The funniest project to do is buy whichever wooden item you want to get, acrylic paint, mod podge, and some paint brushes, if you want you can buy some rhinestones and some E-6000 glue for some fun decoration. this should all run out to be around $20 or less. You have to paint the wooden piece with at least 2 coat of your acrylic paint, let it dry, then paint on the mod podge for the nice shine to it. And if you want some jews on it then you can slowly glue on the stones piece by piece right after the mod podge dries, which might take an hour. When you're done with your item piece, I'd suggest, if it is a jewelry box, you can add some jewelry piece from forever 21 or H&M into it for the surprise. and if its a picture frame, I suggest a nice picture of you and the person. This is a great and inexpensive gift for the person you love. Plus all the thought and time you put into making it coming from the heart a lot better.

Enjoy loves =)

9 Days Until Christmas!!

When you're out shopping you look at so many different things, colors, styles and its still hard to pick something for that special someone. To have something in mind everyone loves to be spoiled. The number one thing I would recommend are DIY gift baskets. Don't go out to the store to buy some gift baskets that someone already made, like I'm 100% sure that your special someone will not like at least 1 or 2 of the items in the gift basket. What I would suggest to do is do a gift box. I will tell you what you'll need to do.
What you'll need: A box, any kind of box, tissue papers, tape, wrapping paper (the cuter the better), and a bow, plus all the goodies you purchase.
what you'll need to do is go to the store buy small goodies, that are inexpensive, or whatever that fits your budget. Like for a guy you'll buy things like a nice tee-shirt, a hat, cologne, candy gift card, etc, whatever guys stuff are. And for girls, which is easier, you can buy makeup, lotion, perfume, socks, slippers, hair stuff, ect. You will need to wrap up each item with a tissue paper, and make sure you stuff it into the box and hide it under the tissue papers.
Next you will need to close the box up and wrap it up and wah la you're done.
reason why this would be the best gift idea is because when you buy a lot of little things and you put it into a box and when the person opens up the box they will feel like it is a lot of things. It feels better to give a lot of little things then one big thing that probably wont make them feel satisfied.

I hope you enjoy the idea!
God Bless Loves

The Little Black Bag!

Have you heard about The Little Black Bag yet? If you haven't I'm going to tell you about it anyways! :) It is this monthly subscription where you spend either $50 or $25 towards an item of your choice and a free item from the site AND 2 unknown items for free for the $50 box, and I believe 1 free unknown item for the $25 box. The thing is that you wont know what is exactly is in the box until you pay for it. And the fun part is after you pay for the box either $50 or $25, you get to trade for something else if you don't like your free items. But the AMAZING part is that you're only paying like $50 for a total box worth up to almost $200!! It is truly amazing though. I did join into this monthly subscription. you can skip any month, its pretty much just like JustFab, ShoeMint and ect, where you can skip any month before that certain date so you wont get charged for it.



I got the $50 box, when I received my box in the mail, I did thought it was funny how it was a white box. I really did thought I was suppose to be getting the stuff in a black bag! The packaging of the box was beautiful though. I love how cute the bottom of the box was, with their logo all over the bottom.

This was the Bag I picked and pretty much paid for, full price for this bag would have been $99 but im paying $50. It is by Big Buddha, and I absolutely LOVE it. I feel so sophisticated wearing this bag. it has its professional look plus a chic and fancy look all in one. as I notice that the bag does have a face on it. This view of the bag looks like a face, do anyone else sees it or is it just me? Haha idk I guess I'm just weird

The View inside the Bag, I am not too fond of, because I do not like the colorful stars in it. I do love the silk material, but I wish it was more of a red, or a royal blue, to make to bag look more rich. But this is the bad down side of the bag, overall this bag earns a 10 on a scale of 1-10!

The Second item was the item I traded for. I received as a free item was the ugliest rain necklace with two fat flowers on it. and surprisingly I had over 10 offers for it. Like OMG  THANK GOODNESS someone did because I would not get this Beautiful case by Steve Madden ! This would have cost me $38 dollars plus tax in the store alone! This is another reason why I'm seriously loving LBB.

This is the 3rd item I traded the free item which was these ugly zebra thick hoop earrings. Which Thank goodness someone did want those earrings, because it was not my style at all. this was by Mocha which I've never heard of before, but I am digging the way they handmade this bracelet. I mean I can really make this on my own, but I will not complain because I gotten this for me and I do love it. And so does my sister because she is very into these kind of arm candies.

My last item was the free item I already got to see before I bought it, it was a mini bottle of the Redken Anti-Damage leave in hair conditioner. which works wonders! its great because I have damage hair at my tips and the smell of it is nice. I do enjoy using Redken because their products seems to actually works with my thin silk curly hair. Too bad it cost so much but I will try and but one bottle at a time from now on.

 And here is a Video I made on my YouTube Channel youtube.com/melissalovele please enjoy the video and I hope you all gotten a better understanding of what The Little Black Bag is. Leave any comments below or on my youtube video and I will surely answer all questions.

10 Days Until Christmas!!

Omg 10 days till CHRISTMAS!! Yay! Another gift that would be great to buy are clothes! Fashion is like everything now. Everyone wants to look good and feel good. What better than clothes right?!
For family its pretty easy to buy their size clothes because you can go see what size they are. But for Friends and other relatives like Aunts, Uncles, cousins, there always gift cards.

Forever 21 is probably one of the most popular clothing store out there right now. Very affordable and very stylish. If you're doing online shopping here is a promo code for a $15 off $100, but I used this same on under $100 so it should work that way UPROMISE

Target is a great gift, especially giving gift cards, because target is like an amazing place. They are have their sales on items like the kitchen ware and electronics.

11 Days Until Christmas!

I know I'm pretty late on this whole Count Down but WTH? I'ma do it anyways! So I want to post up a count down help you, my readers out on what to get for that SPECIAL someone.

When I say goodies, I mean GOODIES! Chocolate!! Who doesn't love chocolate?!

Here's an idea:

Get a Box, any box like this

 

put some cute tissue papers in the box, And buy candies like this:

And whatever else is their favorites. All you have to do is pack all the goodies into the box and get a bright nice red tissue paper and cover all the goodies and then box it up. Don't forget your bow, and present the gift to them. this is a great idea for a friend, coworker, boss, neighbor, etc..

Home Decor

Hello my fashion junkies,
I went to Hobby Lobby today to look around and I came across a Paris Eiffel Tower, being such a big piece and unique looking I thought I would of cost more. Full price was $24.99 but I only paid around $13.
The second item was the cutest painting of a naked tree with a blue bird in it, it was beautiful. Full price was $39.99 but they was having a 50% off soo only paid bout $20 for it..

With both of my purchase being under $40 and saving me over $30 I was really pleased. This was indeed my first visit to Hobby Lobby but it will not be my last. I'm 100% sure I will be going back and will be doing more post of my hauls for you guys to read.

Welcome Back!

Hello fashion LoveLes! It's really have been a while.
I want to just pretty much talk about what has been going on with my life. I am in school, studying to become an RN nurse so I've been busy with school. I'm also a nail technician so I work almost everyday that I am off from school. And I've moved!! So I been trying to fix up my room help with the house and my sisters room. So I am a busy bee! But to sum up everything I'm just plain ol lazy :). But I am back and I do want to continue my blog post and begin my YouTube videos as I promised.

Anyways. I want to show how my room looks like. The first picture is a before and after. The corner window is my main appearance in the room so I needed to make sure the color of the room will bring it out. And I settled with a almost tiffany blue blue, this color is a shade darker on the blue side. I painted my crown cutting , windows, door and the bottom cutting all a matte white. Which is a flat white, meaning no shine in the color. I know, wtf she do that for right? I even argue with the man at the Home Depot about the shade of my white. He was saying how my room won't look right because people normally paint with a gloss for the mold cutting, doors and window, but I didn't care what he had to say I was going to settle with my flat white and I did. And I'm so happy that I did because the flat white brought the color of my room out even more! This white was brighter, whiter and didn't mess up the way my room looked. Because the blue color was a matte also I wanted the white o be matte also.

On to my closet. I took out the doors and toss em away. Who needs them?!! I thought that the doors made the room look smaller so bye bye doors. Even though I would of been more happy with a walk in closet, this would do. I kept thinking over when I finished the paint in my room that something was missing. My closet looked super plain. With me going bold and actually settling with this bold color blue for my walls I thought why not do black and white stripes in the closet?? Although I almost did zig zags, which probably have been a little bit cooler, I thought the stripes was as cute but less work. So the 2nd picture below was taken when I was half way done. You can see the yellow tape was how I taped up the walls. I didn't do just that all I did the whole thing even if no one can see the sides I wanted it done. The last picture is the finishing of my painting. Though some stripes were smaller but it looked perfect. My closet brought the edginess to my room. And I love it!
