Helloooo to the first "Favorites of the Month" post! Today is the last day of February, and an anon on my Tumblr gave me an amazing idea to create this, so I figured- why not? Let's get started!
Skin Care: LUSH Aqua Marina Cleanser and LUSH Skin Drink Moisturizer
Where have you both been hiding!? Now we all know Lush Cosmetics has amazing items all-around; whether it's bath bombs, soaps, moisturizers, hand cream - you name it. On my previous trip to Lush last weekend, I came back home with these two beauties, and let me just say, they work miracles. If you guys follow me on Tumblr you'd know that I had been hunting for a moisturizer (or anything in general) that would get rid of my dry skin. I walked into the store and was immediately assisted by one of the lovely workers in Lush, which was actually the one that recommended Aqua Marina for me. After using them, I found that both the cleanser and moisturizer are the perfect texture for my skin; not too soft, not too harsh. Definitely got rid of the dryness and redness of my skin. 10/10.
Here it comes………. the spring readiness shopping. As I saw these cute little sandals on a window mannequin in front of Forever 21, I rushed (literally) into the store to find myself a pair. I was relatively close to purchasing the black pair, as usual, when I realized that I should probably step out of my comfort zone for once. Great thing I made that decision, because I have a feeling these will be pairing up well with most of the clothes I have purchased for the next season.
Accessory: World Map Watch
Can I just say I really love my best friend so much. Quick story: I've been really stressed out with school lately and hadn't really been myself these past few days. Noticing that, she sneakily got this watch for me (which I had reblogged before on Tumblr), and placed it inside my locker along with a hand-made card. The moment I opened the locker door and saw the card, the smile on my face was as huge as the size of an extra large pizza (sorry, I'm hungry haha). I'm not saying buy me gifts whenever I'm mad or stressed out or feeling terrible, but it was so heart-warming to know that I've got people in my life that truly care for me. So thankyou, Stephanie :)
Music: 5SOS - She Looks So Perfect
Huuuuuuuuuge sigh for this one. I keep falling for this band more and more every day (particularly Calum). Being completely surprised with the music video, I really really enjoyed the song the first time I heard it. I actually finished a project I was doing an hour later than needed because of the fact that I kept watching the video. Love love love this song.
Tele: American Horror Story
Okay, I know I'm a bit late on this one, but I've been quite busy with school and trying to get caught up with Doctor Who and Teen Wolf. Not such an easy life for a teenager (could be worse). This show is very, very, odd, and gruesome; part of the reason why I love it. It's such a different show than the typical "boy meets girl, girl falls in love, boy has girlfriend, girl and boy get together in the end, happy happy ending." Although I do sometimes enjoy watching those shoes, not gonna lie, I also need a variety when wanting to watch something new. And American Horror Story is just spot on. I've also added "visit Murder House" in my To-Do List because that totally needs to happen.
Scent: Daisy by Marc Jacobs
Ah, my little Daisy. It's been a few years since I've had this perfume, and I've been in love with it since day 1. It's such a light and sweet scent, which is perfect for me. It makes more sense to use it in the spring time because of the sweetness, but I sometimes I applied it during the winter as well, because oh well, who cares. I don't. I smelled good.
Games: Covet Fashion App on iPhone
My latest obsession! It's like having your own little model to virtually dress up for different occasions. The Covet Fashion App is what I wake up to in the morning, and what I go to before going to bed at night. What I find so amazing about it is that it actually features top brands that are relevant to this day, some of them being Rebecca Minkoff and Hudson Jeans. Basically, you can enter events which give you a required style to accomplish, and after submitting your outfit, others can vote on your looks. While receiving money for your submission, you can also earn clothing items if enough people like your outfit. In other words - you become a personal stylist with every event you enter. I've provided a link if any of you want to download the app above.
