Love, Life and Lip Gloss: May 2012

Happy Saturday Lovelies!!

I am probably the most inconsistent blogger in the world. Sorry. I just get too easily distracted and I think ooh this would make a good blog post...let's go get groceries...and then it's gone.

Also, in other exciting news, I started up my YouTube channel again. There's only three videos right now, but you can check them out here!

I have for you today a review of mark.'s newest magalog trends for Mag 6. There are some really awesome pieces in this collection along with NEW HAIRCARE!! mark.'s hair care line has been the same since the company started and they are the last line to get a make-over. All I can say is I personally couldn't do my hair without these products!

So let's get started!!!

Roll With It Romper

Short and Sweet Dress

These are the new fashion items from Mag 6. I love these for summer! I will tell you that the romper runs weird. I ordered a size up and while it fits great, it's short. Like if you bend over too far there will be butt cheek short. But it's very cute! It buttons in the back but it's kinda open too, so I suggest wearing a black bra, OR if you can find one, a neon colored one! It's very chic and could be worn to a wedding or the farmer's market. It's all in how you accessorize it.

The Short and Sweet denim dress, it F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!!!! Seriously, I've worn it the last two days in a row. I love it for work with a cardi or for running errands or girl's night or whatever. It's super comfy! And it has great zipper detailing in the back. The top bust part is elastic. I ordered a medium and it's awesome! The straps are adjustable and the length is perfect. I can see getting a lot of use out of this dress!

Fit to Print Beach Bag

Michelle Vale Convertible Bag

Bags! Okay the top beach bag, holy OMG! It's reversible! You can wash it in the wash machine! It has a magnetic snap and it is seriously big enough to fit a small child in (which I don't recommend but it's flippin huge!). A great tote for summer, over-night stays, work, shopping at a farmer's market, etc.

The Michelle Vale bag is something I don't have. BUT the story behind this is that Michelle Vale was the winner and the handbag designer awards for new designer and most original design or something along those lines. The bag has a detachable strap and interchangeable hardware (silver or gold). Apparently in person it is to die for. Again I don't have it so I can't say. I will tell you that her bag at Nieman Marcus is $895. Our designer collaboration is only $58; which is like free compare to $895!!

Cross Your Fingers Ring

First In Line Earrings

Triple Sparkle Necklace

We Got the Bead Necklace

Okay on to jewelry! the ring and earrings above, both come in silver or gold and are really cool! Very much a nod to the tribal trend that's big for summer. I love those earrings so much! They are so expensive looking and again, are very versatile!

The Triple Sparkle necklace is a beautiful piece that reminds me of the Pandora bead trend that's been big for a couple years now. There are three different colored beads and it's a great layering piece. A good basic go to necklace to dress up any outfit!

We Got the Bead. This is not for everyone. BUT it is for ME! I LOVE THIS! It is the ultimate summer statement piece! There are gold bars that hold together hundreds of multi colored plastic beads. And. it. is. gorgeous. For seriously! It looks great with jeans and a t-shirt. I love it in the pic with the romper! An attention-getter for shizzle.

NEW HAIR CARE!!!! EEEK! I love this! So much! I really disliked mark.'s old hair care line, because I thought it smelled bad. It worked great but it smelled like men's cologne and it was so strong I couldn't smell anything else all day. So I was so beyond excited when I found out there was going to be new stuff on the very near horizon! I have used the hair spray, Locks in Place Build able Hold Hairspray and the Double Do Shape and Gloss kit! The hair spray is so awesome, I love that it's build able so that it doesn't get super hard and crunchy and it doesn't flake. And OMG, OMG the Double Do! Ugh, I love this! I love the packaging and design! It's so unique to mark. with the flip design! One side is like pomade and the other is a glossing cream. I use these two products everyday and I swear I have had at least a solid month of good hair days! Other reviews on the other products are really positive as well. As for the scent it's light and feminine. And it's not long lasting or overpowering. So you can do your hair but not have the product overwhelm you the rest of the day!

Okay, whew! That's a lot of new stuff. So yeah. Alrighty, what are you excited to try?? All of these products are available now and you can shop here for them.

Hello Lovelies!!

Long time no see, huh?

Sorry, lo siento! I've been busy and my blog was neglected. Many apologies!

I've also been trying to create a YouTube channel so I can do both blogs and videos. Some things are just better said and some are better written, ya know?

So today's post is all about Zoya. Have you heard of them yet? If not, you will! They are taking over the beauty and fashion world as we speak, haha! They are an awesome vegan friendly line of nail polishes and other manicure and beauty goodies. And they are especially created for natural nails! See their website.

I had seen several of their ads in magazines and online so I finally decided to break down and try them at the beginning of the year and holy cow am I glad I did!

They run a LOT of promos on their Facebooks and Twitter pages (check them out here and on Twitter @Zoya_NailPolish). They offer BOGO, free shipping, and other things FREE, which is always awesome!

I did a video about my collection and some of my fave colors (which you can see here) and as I was doing the video I thought it might be a good blog post too so you can see swatches of the colors.
