Just a touch of W I L D...

Told you all I'd show you what this top looks like on. 

Bet you like it a lot better now! : P

---------------

Decided to wear this for the #21andOver (celebrating the movie '21 and Over' with Justin Chon) party tonight. It was a casual "college themed" event so pretty much anything goes and you know I have been dying to pull this out of my closet. 

I wanted to be comfortable so I went with a super simple pairing - nothing too complex or over thought.

Forever 21 Leopard Muscle Tank (Here)

Genetic Denim Shya Cigarette Jean in Dark Tin (Here)

Steve Madden Dynemite Sandal in Black Suede (Here)

Rebecca Minkoff 5 Zip Mini Bag Black with Gold Hardware (Here)

And lastly just a couple random pictures from the night. 

(The boys had some photos with Justin Chon as well : )

Feng and I. 

(Steve, Hirano and Hok also were at the event.)

Thanks so much for reading : ) All photos were posted earlier on my Instagram so be sure to follow me there if you don't already! 

I want to start posting some non-bathroom Outfit of the Day photos but I'm going to need Steve to assist me with that so for now this will have to do. 

Hope you enjoyed! Talk to you all tomorrow!

Sweet Treats. Home Decor.

Finally set up my cute little cupcake displays after cleaning up my apartment so I thought I'd share. 

I had been hanging on to them for a while and felt like now was finally the time. 

Originally purchased to be decorations for my dresser - almost 2 years and I still haven't purchased a dresser sooooo on my counter they go. lol. 

The taller of the two (well I actually purchase more than one of each so I will still be able to use them in my bedroom when the time comes) was purchased at VONS Grocery Store in the Floral Department. I don't remember exactly how much they were, I think $12.99 or so. 

(Similar HERE)

Inside I have a few stacked bracelets from Forever 21, BCBGeneration and Tory Burch along with this sweet little pastel macaron trinket box which I think is the perfect touch.

It adds such interest to the set up. 

The shorter cupcake display was purchased at Ross for $5.99 

(Same one HERE)

I love playing with levels!

Inside this one I have again some Forever 21 bracelets, a Forever 21 Ring and to keep some continuity between the two stands another BCBGeneration bracelet and pastel macaron container.

-----------

I hope you all have enjoyed this post! Something different for me on here. 

I'm not too big on sharing my home decor since my apartment is still a work in progress but I am happy to post about the parts that I am satisfied with.

Let this inspire you to surround yourself with the everyday things you enjoy - even if they are in unconventional ways. 

Love,

Holly

P.S. I do link the products in my posts : ) Just click on their names and you will be redirected!

Lemony Lime. New Coach Mini Tanner Bag - Spring 2013

Coach Legacy Leather Mini Tanner in Lemon

$258

Can be purchased HERE - on coach.com or in store.

I recently went to Vegas for a couple of days (Steve had some relatives in town that wanted to go) and of course I did a little shopping.

Normally I am not a big Coach fan but I am LOVING this purse! 

The color is perfect for Spring and totally my obsession for the season. 

I always love these lemon/lime colors, they look so great with white or denim. 

Just a great, soft pop of color. 

Coach Legacy Leather Mini Tanner in Lemon 

Great petite size that still holds a lot.

9 1/2" (L) x 8 1/4" (H) x 3 1/2" (W)

Features a top handle as well as a shoulder strap.

I actually like it both ways and when I use the top handle I let the shoulder strap hang Balenciaga style.

 Love the way that looks! 

Coach Legacy Leather Mini Tanner in Lemon 

Overall such a great little bag. 

I really enjoy the design - the shape is a bit similar to a small Celine with the sides etc. Personally, for myself I don't love the Celine bags (except for one Taupe/Beige one I had seen on Kim Kardashian)- they look like little robot faces and overall it's just too much to pay for a bag that I'm not in love with so I'm happy to have found this one. 

Similar shape but in a color and style I like a lot more - at a fraction of the price. Bonus!

Still great quality and a lot of personality. 

-----------

Thanks so much for reading this post! Kind of a #HumpdayHaul/Fashion Favorites ; )

There were a few other things I purchased in Vegas so I will hopefully be posting those up soon! (Two other bags you guys will go crazy for and a few other things)

Hope you had a great day! See you back here tomorrow.

Fashion Finds: Forever 21 - Toughening Up

I hadn't been to Forever 21 in...well...forever, but we have some of Steve's relatives visiting from Japan and they ended up wanting to stop in so I looked around a bit with them and found some really great stuff! 

Here are my two favorite pieces!

Forever 21 Leopard Print Muscle Tee

$13.80

Okay we all know I love stuff like this. It's not my first tank from Forever 21 with wild cats on it. (Leopards - my last tank had Cheetahs).

I like that it toughens up my look a little bit while still staying true to my taste and style. 

Purchased this in a size Small.

Forever 21 Mineral Wash Denim Vest

$22.80

I purchased this in a size Small but I really needed an XS - Unfortunately the XS they had was too bleached for the look I was going for (it was almost white) so I made due with the S. There is some gapping in the back but hopefully I can shrink it. 

The material is pretty nice and has some good stretch to it. 

I actually love Forever 21 denim vests - always have good luck with them.

Just another quick peek at my style. : )

Hope you enjoyed! 

All items are current and can be purchased online - I linked both of them. 

(you can just click on their titles)

I did purchase in store though. 

Thanks so much for reading. I hope your week is going well so far!  

I'll talk to you all again very soon - I'll try for tomorrow but we do have some of Steve's family visiting and we are taking them around plus it's going to be Valentine's Day as well as Steve's Birthday!!! (his birthday is the 15th)

Have a great night!

Something Sweet from Etude House - Sweet Recipe Collection [Haul]

I am SOOO excited about this month's Pink Box c/o Etude House! Everything is so darn cute!! ^_^ 

I'm sure you can already pick out what my favoriteeee product is going to be. 

Now I just opened this box today so it's only going to be a haul, not a full review but I really wanted to get these pictures up for you as soon as possible so you could see a few items from the newest collection! 

First up...

Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base - Makeup Base/Primer

SPF 25 PA++

This is suppose to help your skin retain moisture with a "fluffy" finish. It also is suppose to have "silky control powder" to control sebum and leave skin "flawlessly soft". 

I haven't tried this on my face yet but I have played around with it on the back on my hand a bit. It has almost a creamy frosting consistency and it does in fact feel kind of fluffy. When you rub it in it is very light and smooth feeling with a soft (almost apricot?) scent that dries to a powdery finish. I am curious to see how this product will react with my skin. *fingers crossed*

Next we have the - Sweet Recipe Sliced Cake Puffs

As cute as these are...

They're just makeup sponges. : \ 

Okay as a bonus but I wouldn't go out of my way for them. 

(I would have rather gotten the eye shadows from this collection. It says it was suppose to be included but it wasn't in my kit.)

Then we have...

Sweet Recipe Dear My Jelly Lips-talk 

in JPK002

"Vibrant, shiny, jelly textured lipstick that supplies juicy shine with translucent colors."

It is also suppose to have 5 different kinds of plant extract to help soften lips. 

Cutesy packaging. We expect nothing less from Etude House!

I love the little heart design.

Jelly color that can definitely be built up quickly. 

It's pigmented while still being a watery looking, high gloss lipstick. 

The shine is unreal! 

Overall this wasn't bad but for me the texture was a killer. It feels very greasy and thin which I'm not a fan of personally. If you like light weight lipsticks though this may be a good candiate. (I wish it felt more like a Dior Addict Lipstick)

Other than that it has almost a slight floral scent but kind of tastes like faint jelly beans when applied to the lips. (Not sure if that was intentional or if I just saw the package, couldn't put my finger on the flavor and took to suggestion. lol.) Not in love with it though, I probably would not recommend this.

Also this color stained my lips! 

And lastly...

My FAVORITE Part! 

HOW CUTE ARE THESE NAIL POLISHES! 

OMG >_<

Sweet Recipe Ice Cream Nails - Glitter & Stone Infused Pastel Nail Colors 

Adorable little ice cream cones! 

And the polishes actually kind of look like ice cream ^_^

Mint chocolate chip anyone? 

I haven't tried any of the colors yet but next time I paint my nails I will post swatches if you all are interested! Let me know in the comments : ) 

They look promising!

Available at Etude House stores around the world and for those of us in countries without EH stores :( products can be purchased from http://english.gmarket.co.kr/

------------

Hope you all enjoyed this quick peek into the latest Etude House products! I can't wait to test them out further : )

I will not be mentioning any Etude House products in my Hits & Misses videos because they are not super easily accessible which seems to frustrate people so if you are curious about any particular product let me know in the comments and I will see if I can elaborate further in a future post for you. 

Happy Monday to you all! I should also have some fashion posts up this week! Yay! 

So until then have a great day, thanks for reading and I will try to see you back here tomorrow.

Disclaimer: As I've said before I am NOT being paid to review or post about Etude House products. I just thought it would be fun to share the items I receive c/o Etude House since I will not be talking about them on my YouTube channel. Hope you enjoy!

Fashion Finds and FREE Chocolate ^_^

I haven't really purchased any normal clothing items in a while believe it or not. It's mostly been leggings and sweatshirts so I tried looking for a couple things yesterday. 

This is what I found. 

Chunky Knit Sweater from ANGL $42.99

The cut on this is super interesting - kind of like a mixture between a sweater and a poncho. 

Can't wait to show you in an OOTD post. 

This sweater is so soft and cuddly!

 Typically the items I've found at this store can be a little on the cheaply made side yet still kind of expensive for what you are getting but this piece was not only great feeling but a reasonable price considering how nice it feels. (I mean if it was less expensive that'd be great but I didn't mind paying the price since it felt so nice.)

Low Draping Studded Tank from BP in Nordstrom - $32

Now I know this doesn't look like much just hanging here but I think it could be really cool on. (I haven't tried it on yet) It drapes really low in the front and on the sides so it will be a great thing to wear with a fun bandeau! (Think Kendall and Kylie Jenner style) 

Love the flat top stud detailing and of course you know I love cream/white and gold. It's just always so great to layer. 

OOTD to come! 

'LOVE' White & Rose Gold BCBGeneration Bracelet - $18 at Nordstrom

I couldn't help myself. 

(pictured here with the one I purchased last week?)

Still keeping my eye out for ones that are a little more true to me (I mean come on who doesn't 'DREAM' and 'LOVE' appeal to) but I do want to stay within colors that I would normally wear which seems to be the difficult part right now. 

(More BCBGeneration Bracelets HERE)

I just know these will go with so much of my stuff!

Lastly I just wanted to let you know about a promotion Victoria's Secret is having right now.  

A FREE box of Vosges chocolates! O_O (with any $75 purchase)

I love this brand! Well, I haven't had them in probably almost 3 years but I loved them when I had them! (The ones I tried were different - cool, weird flavored truffles (The Ginger Wasabi - OMG)- so I'm not sure how these will be but for free with purchase I can't complain. Plus the box is cute.)

OMG never mind I just tried one - Still delicious. If you get this box try the 'LOVE' Chocolate - SOOO GOOD!

Also a neat little fun fact - Many of the chocolates in this box are named after Victora's Secret lines - i.e. Very Sexy, Dream Angel, Fabulous, etc. 

--------------

Also if you are a chocolate lover sign up for the Godiva membership! It's free and you can go in and get a 100% FREE piece of chocolate every month! I rarely go in and grab mine but if you want a little indulgence while you are shopping around definitely stop by.

Victoria's Secret PINK Yoga Sports Bra - $32.50 

Here is what I purchased from Victoria's Secret if you are wondering but I'm not sure how you guys feel about showing that kind of stuff so I didn't post a full out picture of them. 
(personally I don't see anything wrong with it since they are sports bras but idk.)


They are definitely the SEXIEST sports bras I've ever tried. Upon trying one on I immediately felt like a Pussycat Doll LOLLL. They come in XS, S, M, L type sizing - I purchased a Small (I wear a 32C bra at VS for reference) and I think they fit wonderfully! Not much stretch around the band so it can be a slight struggle to get on but once you get it on its great. Wish the material was a littleeeeee softer but hey I'm happy with them!

Also wanted to share my LOL Outfit of the Day from Instagram. 

Forgot it was Saturday and went to the mall in sweats >_< - I had just finished filming a tutorial so the makeup was done but I was only going to run errands (returns and to pick up presents) so I thought nothing of it. There were a TON of people there.     -__- Me and my pink pants. *le sigh* 

But by the end of the night I was owning it though!

 (well I was only there for 2 hours but you know what I mean)

--------------

Anyway I hope you are all having a great weekend! I should have some Outfit of the Day posts this week possibly with my new stuff : ) so look forward to that.

I will hopefully see you back here tomorrow!

I have still been posting on EEVEE's blog (more so than here) so check it out if you're interested in my fur baby! : P
