Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2014

Hi Everybody!

I'm sure the majority of you know that this past Friday was 'Black Friday' in the USA and some parts of Canada. Did any of you brave the crowds? Or do some online shopping to get some of those amazing deals? What did you get?

I ordered something online; I wanted to get more but what I wanted was sold out by the time I got around to having some free time to sit and shop :( 

Also, today I didn't have time so that's a little upsetting. I worked and had a couple appointments and I was far too tired after I got home and made and ate dinner to think about looking at a bunch of different sites for the best bargain. 

Wayne braved the crowds on Thursday night in Dearborn, Michigan for a few hours. It was worth it according to him. He came home with a bunch of stuff and in general spent about a third of what he would have had be bought everything full priced, and in Canada. I'm excited to get a lot of what he bought for Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas, how many of you are prepared? I plan on decorating my house tomorrow. I would normally decorate on December 1st, but as I said, I worked and had appointments and such so I didn't get to that today, either. 

I'll post some pictures of the decorations later this week :)

That's all for now! Thank you and good night! 

Be Wonderful :)

PS. If you're not following me on Instagram, go do it. I'm going to try out the 'Photo A Day December' thing. My name is @shelbyanng9 ;)

This is the photo I posted today to kick off the month

Sonia Kashuk 15th Anniversary Set

Hi Everybody!

I had to share my excitement of these Sonia Kashuk limited edition 15th anniversary sets going on clearance at Target! I had to snatch them up before they were sold out, because I sure as shit am not paying more than double what they cost in store just because they're limited edition. 

Anyway! The brushes are GORGEOUS! I love the colour purple, and the gold just makes them look so classy in my opinion. The nail polishes aren't full sized, but there are 15 of them, and for the price I paid, I'm not complaining one bit. 

I only have the one picture of the two of them together. Sorry it's awkward with the reflection of my lights. I'll have to open both sets one day to get some better pictures. 

That's all for now!

A Lot Of Fucks.

Tonight's post is going to be a little angrier than usual. First off, I deeply apologize for not posting in like 7886534865 weeks. Seriously. It feels like forever to me; maybe not you, but to me for sure.

So my laptop broke. And my phone is fucked.

Those are my excuses for not posting in forever. The laptop just decided it wanted to take a forever nap, and my phone has been a dickhole for the past couple of months. Thank god the files were salvageable from the laptop, though. I would have been super devastated if they couldn't have been lifted off the hard drive. I have like 3 years of my life on there. I am currently using my parents' laptop to type this post.

My phone is being a fuck. I have a year and three months left in my contract, but I'm about to throw it into traffic at any given moment. The battery sucks. It runs slow. It decides it also wants to take a nap at any given moment without me turning it off. I mean it shuts itself off when the battery is at 76%. And it won't turn back on for at least 30 minutes. Can someone please explain this fuckery?? It's an iPhone 4S if anyone has any suggestions of what to do with it other than play baseball with it.

I'm sure all of you know and can't ignore the fact that Christmas is coming. Which means I'm spending my money on other people. Which means I can't afford a new laptop nor a cell phone. I know Black Friday starts tomorrow in some places, but I've been warned of buying electronics on Black Friday simply due to the fact that companies make certain electronics specifically for Black Friday, and they may not be the best quality. I don't really give a shit. As long as I can write blogs, watch YouTube videos, and upload pictures and videos onto it, I'm happy. I don't know what to do.

I feel like that's it for my rant.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone with my profanity.

Morphe Order!!

Hi Everybody!!

This post is brought to you by the excitement that is overwhelming me because my Morphe Brushes order came in!!!

I know, I know; I already have so much makeup, what do I need more for?? Well, I'm not the first, and I won't be the last girl who likes makeup to tell you that you will always want more, no matter how much you already have. Just saying.

Plus, with these single eyeshadows only being $2 each, it's difficult to NOT get them. 

The only thing I'm not too huge a fan of is the fact that none of them have names, just numbers. But I'll get over that. Oh, look! I'm over it. :)

That's all for today! I have some makeup to play with! Thank you!

Wedding Weekend!

Hi Everybody! 

I went to a wedding this past weekend with Wayne. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures other than of myself to showcase my hair and makeup and the centerpiece at our table. Oops! To be fair; had I taken pictures, my phone would have died in a matter of minutes. I did post some snapchats of my drinking habits throughout the night, though. I had two bottles of white wine all to myself, so I'm sure you can imagine the shitshow I looked like by the end of the night. Anyway, here are a couple photos I took that day.

This is just in the car on the way to the ceremony

This was in between the ceremony and reception. Just doing some touch ups.

This is a close up of my eye. Obviously. Just showcasing the LASH PARTY that's happening.

I apologize for not taking any more photos. It was absolutely beautiful. The bride was gorgeous. I almost cried when I saw her. And it's really hard to believe that my friend Peter is married now. Especially because he had been dating his now wife for years before any of us even met her. There was even an ongoing joke that she didn't exist. But she does. And now they're married. Weird.

Anyway, that's all for now! Thanks!

Pampering Myself!!

Hi Everybody!!

A couple nights ago I decided I would pamper myself a little bit. I have so many spa essentials and products that are meant for pampering oneself, but I rarely have time to use them. I made time this week. 

Wayne and I have a wedding to go to on Saturday, so I want to make sure I'm well rested beforehand so I don't look frazzled the day of.

I took a bath with one of my new bath bombs from Lush Cosmetics. This bath bomb is called Northern Lights, and it's so freaking cool. It is a baton shaped bomb in a purple colour, but when you put it in the water and it starts to dissolve, two other colours (blue and yellow) start dissolving out of it. It is supposed to be like looking at the ACTUAL Northern Lights. I loved it. 

I also did a face mask. I've had this for at least two months, but I have this problem where I buy new things and I'm afraid to use them for fear of ruining them, so I just opened it for the first time that night. It is called Glam Glow, and it is sold at Sephora and a few other retailers. I got mine at Winners by freak chance. My package contains the Supermud Clearing Treatment, which is the one I used, and the Youthmud Tinglexfoliate Treatment. The clearing treatment is supposed to draw out all the imperfections and leave your skin clear with noticeably smaller pores. 

I only used it as a spot treatment type of mask. I think I look hilarious and it kind of looks like a goatee. I did have a few blemishes along this horseshoe shape on my face, though. It's been a couple of days since I did this and my skin is clear as day. It will take me a long time to use the whole jar, but I'm happy that when it happens I can find it for sure at Sephora now that it's open. 

I love it when I get nights like that one. I very much enjoy pampering myself. It's a shame I don't get to do it like this very often. 

What are some of your favourite ways to pamper yourself?

Thanks for reading!

Devil's Night!

Hi Everybody!

I know that with Halloween being this past weekend, I'm sure all of you have gotten your fill of costumes and makeup, but since I didn't do anything for Halloween this year, I need to share the tradition I DID participate in. 

This happened on Thursday, October 30th, also known as Devil's Night or All Hallow's Eve. This year marks the 19th year this tradition has been standing. My family, and another family toilet paper each other's houses (not really the houses, more like the trees and bushes) every October 30th. 

This year was definitely one of the best years, though. So. Much. Toilet. Paper.

These are obviously altered because my phone camera doesn't take the greatest pictures at night, and they are also three different houses of the four that were toilet papered. My sister and I toilet papered two houses, and the other family toilet papered two houses. If we count all the houses that the families occupy, there are 6 total, but there were only 4 casualties. 

It was so much fun. It always is, but as I said, this was one of the best years. Epic. Do any of you have Halloween traditions?

Thanks!
