I chose to pair this Utility Jacket I picked up at Forever 21 with some cuffed denim shorts and cognac pumps. I really love this T-shirt too that I...
I use a mix of many different beauty products some high end and some drugstore. However, I can completely understand not wanting to spend $17 on a lipstick, or $28 on a mascara. (I rarely spent that on makeup until recently.) I am also a lipstick hoarder, so it would get pretty expensive always buying Urban Decay lipsticks haha. So here are 10 of my FAVORITE beauty products. These are all drugstore items, and best of all they are all under $10. Woohoo; you could buy all these products (both brushes pictured, both foundations, and 3 lipstick shades) for...

Happy belated holidays everyone! I hope you all had a great 4th of July. I spent time with family hanging out by the pool, relaxing eating dinner out and taking my son and niece to go see the BFG, which I thought was a pretty awesome movie for both kids and adults. I purchased a few items from Francesca’s since they were having a great 4th of July sale and one of my good friends manages the one near me, so it’s always a treat to see her when I stop in.

Who needs a bit of vacation time? Raise those hands ladies!! When you look back and think about the best nights out, and when you have had the most fun, 9 out of 10 times your girls have been with you. In our society, where we put our nose to the grind that 40 plus hours, or take care of children 24/7 (because you know that’s never ending), we desperately need that time with our girlfriends to remind us why “adulting” on weekdays is necessary, but how blowing off steam every so often is needed for our sanity. So...
Summer is finally here and there are a few things I think every girl/woman needs for the summer. Summer is the time to wear all those bright colors, smell tropical fragrances, and give yourself a gorgeous sun kissed glow. However, you want to make sure you are using products that are going to help your skin, hair, and nails. That’s why I put together these great items that I have purchased in preparation for this heat filled summer in Florida. Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Mousse I love this sunless tanner because it goes on so smoothly with a glove...
So Victoria’s Secret will soon stop selling bathing suits! That is such a bummer. I have been buying bathing suits for years from them and rarely buy them from anywhere else. I don’t know if it’s just easy because I use my VS card and get my points, or that I just haven’t really broken out of my bubble too much. Lately I have been purchasing some swim suits from other designers such as Marysia…I just love her swimwear. But since Victoria’s Secret is having a 70% sale on all swimwear till MONDAY I thought I would give you all...
This past weekend was my boyfriends Birthday and Father’s Day, which is one of my favorite times of the year. For him he would rather not be bothered and just play some golf, but I really enjoy surprising him with something he’s been wanting and getting cards together from my son and me. This year we went out to dinner at The Palm at the Hard Rock Hotel here in Orlando. The food is so divine there I don’t think you could go wrong with anything you order. I tried this delicious Strawberry Moscow Mule cocktail that had strawberries,...
We hosted our first BBQ at our new home a couple weeks ago and of course summer in Florida is always looking like it’s going to schedule a hurricane on us. Luckily the weather was perfectly sunny albeit hot until after dinner time when we were ready for some rain. There are all different kinds of hostesses, some like to take on more challenges than others. I am horrible at going overboard when it comes to party planning which means I spend way too much money, way too much time, and then feel way under appreciated. So I decided for...
So my blog isn’t called Flamingos & Pineapples for nothing…I simply love both of those things. So for today’s Tuesday Ten post I thought I would round up the top ten flamingo and pineapple items I am currently obsessed with! Flamingo & Pineapple Floats: These floats are just so much fun. I can’t wait to use them over the summer for lounging in the pool. Mainly I bought them for my girls trip I have coming up to Daytona Beach. We are all bringing floats to relax in the water and sip a tropical beverage. Pineapple Earrings: These gold...
