Lady Bug & LBB: Melie Bianco Bag

I love Halloween, it is so much fun dressing up!  I was a Lady bug, not very creative, but it was such a cute costume and I got it on clearance last Halloween at Walmart for $5 so you really can't beat that price!  My daughter Violet wanted to be a Lady Bug as well.  I am wearing my red Melie Bianco Bag with my costume, from Little Black Bag.  

My beautiful princess Nicole is dressed as Belle one of my favorite characters from the Disney Movies :)

Tuesday Thrifty Treasure's

If you have been reading my blog, you already know how much I enjoy thrift store shopping.  I shop weekly at Goodwill and Epic exclusively on Dollar Days.  I think I got my bargain shopping from my Grandma Angela, I remember how much she enjoyed shopping at garage sales. I have loved shopping at garage sales since I was very young, after all someone's trash is someone else treasures!

You can never have too much pink!  October is the month to wear pink for Breast Cancer Awareness, which is what inspired my outfit.  I found this really pretty pink blazer at Epic $1, my white skinny jeans are from Rue 21 $7, white Marilyn Monroe shirt from Walmart $5, pink rosette clutch, my handmade LOVE bracelet & mom bracelet are from Belladazzle, and my pink heels are from the Wholesale Fashion Shoe Store $10.88.

I was so excited when I found this 70's dress at the Goodwill last week!  It is so pretty it has some silver shimmer stripes, and it was only $1!!!  I am wearing my sexy heel's from Justfab Cher, these are also available in nude, which I might have to get since I love these shoe's so much.  I found this black box clutch at the Goodwill for $6.99.

Friday's Fab Find's

 Woohoo!  It's finally Friday, I have a few things going on this weekend.  My daughter Violet Rose is turning 3 tomorrow, my baby is a big girl now!!!  I am also attending the Fall Festival tomorrow at church, I will be selling my handmade jewelry and some handbags from my online store Belladazzle.  I am excited, it will be a busy weekend, but a happy and blessed one!  What do you have planned for this weekend?  

I  found my favorite fab find's this week at Charlotte Russe, Rue 21, Forever 21, and Wet Seal.  I know that some people say that they rarely find good deals like the one's I post regularly, and the reason I think I do find such amazing deals are my size, I am a L-XL so I think maybe the smaller sizes tend to sell out faster when they go on sale and clearance.  The other reason I think I tend to find such awesome deals is because I go pretty often at least 1-2 times a week to see what the stores have on Clearance. 

 

Peplum Top: Charlotte Russe $2.99

White Skinny jeans: Rue 21 $7

Collar Necklace: Rue 21 $4.50

White bow bag: Belladazzle

Heels: Sole Society $49.99

Coral Butterfly dress: Forever 21 $9.99

Nicole's First Dance

I was so excited when I found out that they were having a Father Daughter Dance at my kids school!  As soon as I found out I knew I had to convince my husband to take Nicole.  My husband is not much of a dancer, but I knew that he would sacrifice a little dancing for his princess since she loves to dance.

I had fun getting her ready, Nicole is 7 and is not allowed to wear makeup except for Halloween, and for playing dress up, but I made an exception.  I put some mascara, a little bit of eyeliner, lipstick and gloss all compliments of Shannon Villanueva my Mary Kay consultant.  I also curled her hair I wanted her to feel excited after all it was her first dance. 

When they left to the dance I felt happy for them, and a little sad.  I felt sad because I feel like she is growing up so fast, and I don't know that I am ready yet.  I know all kids have to grow up, but I am enjoying the age my kids are right now, and I wish they could stay this age forever!  I know it sounds crazy, but I am not ready for the teenage years yet.  

I was mentioning this to my mom,. and she said "you need to start praying for your kids now".  It is so true, I remember my mom used to say that when I was younger that she used to pray for my future husband,   It's never to early to start praying for the future of your kids.  I need to pray for guidance, and I want to be a good example for them so that they will be able to make good decisions when they get older.  

I love this verse:  "She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.  Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also praises her...

Proverbs 31:26-31

Tuesday Thrifty Treasure's

  If you have been reading my blog you already know that besides my shoe addiction I also love to collect blazers.  That is the first rack I hit when I shop at Epic and the Goodwill on Dollar Days, the reason I love blazers so much is because you can wear them to work, or wear them with jeans to polish your look!  I don't have much of a defined waist so the blazers really help me cinch in my waist.

I found this blue & black Nine West blazer at Epic for $1, a black tank from Kohl's $5, black skirt from JC Penny's $10, and my black Cher heels were free with my rewards point's from JustFab.  I had to order a half size up, but for the height of the heel they are comfortable shoes.  In the second picture I am wearing my black cigarette jeans from JustFab, and some pointed flat shoes from Rue 21. 

I am wearing a red Ralph Lauren Blazer from Epic $1, and my Caressa heels from Shoedazzle.  My Caressa shoes are one of my favorite Shoedazzle heels because they are very low making them comfortable to walk in, and they have the super cute corset detail in the back of the heel.  

I am wearing a tan and black blazer from Epic $1 that made me think of my Giulianna heels from Shoedazzle.  They are not the most comfortable shoes, but I love the details on this shoe.  The delicate bow on the front of the shoe adds that special feminine touch. 

I was so happy that I found this dress, it's a Lauren Conrad dress that I found at Epic $1!!!  I am wearing a blue necklace from Inner Diva Fashions a gift with purchase, my favorite jean jacket from the Goodwill $1, and Belinda the teal blue heels from Sole Society.  My makeup is compliments of Shannon Villanueva my Mary Kay Representative, go LIKE her page and tell her Marieesbella sent you!

Friday's Fab Finds

I am such a penny pincher, I just can't help but to strictly shop clearance and sale racks.  I found some really cute things at a few stores this past week.  I shopped at H&M, Charlotte Russe, Rue 21, and Inner Diva Fashions.  

In this first look I am wearing a green blazer I found at H&M $15, cream top from H&M $7, black skirt from Charlotte Russe came with the black bow belt $8, and my Erin heels from Shoedazzle $24.99.  This is my favorite look, I wasn't sure I would keep the green blazer when I purchased it, but it worked out perfectly.

I am wearing a grey rocker necklace from Belladazzle, blue peplum top from Charlotte Russe $3.99, pleather pencil skirt from H&M $10, and black pointy toe heels from Rue 21.  If you want to wear this to the office you just throw on a black blazer and you are ready to go!

I found this purple dress at Rue 21 $8, Teal necklace set & brown bracelet from Inner Diva Fashions gift, brown Jude boots from Shoedazzle $40.  Shout out to Lisa for sending my these super cute jewelry, please make sure to go LIKE her page!  I wasn't sure if I liked the belt with the dress so I tried it without the belt. 

  I am wearing my leopard blazer from Goodwill $1, black shirt from H&M $10, red skinny jeans from Rue 21 $8, black bag from Forever 21 $4.99, and my Erin shoes from Shoedazzle $24.99.  I love how red and leopard compliment each other.

I love how comfy and fun this outfit is, I can run around after the kids in this and still feel stylish!  I purchased all the items at Rue 21 from head to toe, blue plaid button down shirt $6, pink bag $5, neon yellow skinny jeans $12, cap toe flats $5. 

All my makeup I am wearing is compliments of Shannon Villanueva my Mary Kay Representative, please make sure to go LIKE her Facebook page!

Mary Kay Review

 Shannon Villanueva is my Mary Kay representative, she has been a pleasure to work with! Shannon sent me a link to her website so that I can fill out my beauty profile.  Don't forget to go and fill out your profile here. You answer a few question's such as skin type, skin color, and eye color.  Based on your profile Shannon can tell you what products would fit your needs!  It was that easy, and it took less than 5 minutes for fill out.  You can watch my video review here.

I received the Botanical Effects cleanse & moisturizer, which I love!  I have been using these items for a little more than a week and I can see the difference in my skin.  I have really sensitive and oily skin, so I have to be very careful with what I use on it.  I had been breaking out really bad, and as soon as I started using these items my skin looked so much better and it cleared up my acne!

The makeup is also amazing, I have the Shy Blush, Hazelnut, Honey Spice, and Sweet Plum eye shadow's.  For the eyes she sent me the black retractable eye liner, retractable is so easy to use and you don't have to fuss with sharpening which is a major plus, and the Flawless Mascara.  For the lips Shannon sent me the clear lip liner which prevents dark lipstick from bleeding, and the Hibiscus Lipstick my new favorite go to color for fall, and the Fancy Nancy lip gloss. 

This past weekend I went to a kid's costume party, and any excuse to dress up is good for me!  I LOVE dressing up, my husband says I act like a kid for wanting to dress up, but I wasn't allowed to dress up when I was little so I am making up for it now :)  I was the Devil, and my daughter was a Rock Star, so I had an opportunity to use all this wonderful makeup for on both of us!  I used all the products I was sent on both my daughter and I, the only difference was that I did not use the lip gloss on myself, and I lined my lips with black eyeliner to look mean like the Devil. 

Before and after pics :)

Tuesday Thrifty Treasure's

I go thrift store shopping every Monday on dollar day's at Epic.  They open the store at 9:00 a.m, and there is usually a line at the door by 8:40.  I get a little rush when they open the doors and everyone storms in to go in search of any treasures they might find.  I go straight to the section where the blazers are, that has been my latest obsession at thrift stores.  I have also been finding super cute clothes for my kids as well.

I found Violet this cute plaid button up shirt, and white shorts at the Epic yesterday $1 each.  The collar necklace is from Rue 21 $4.99, the leopard bow flats are from Marshalls $9.99, and her bag is a Burberry inspired bag $5.  

I found a few things, but one of the items I snagged for $1 at Epic was this black sweater dress.  I am wearing a purple scarf from 5-7-9 $2.99, black skinny belt, black bag from Forever 21 $4.99, and my very first purchase from Shoedazzle my Mariah plum color boots $32.

Friday's Fab Finds

I wanted to start sharing some of my fab finds.  I am the kind of shopper that goes straight to the clearance section, I rarely shop regular priced items.  I always find it a thrill to get more for my money, especially when I know that if I wait the items I like will eventually go on sale.  My favorite go to stores are Rue 21, Forever 21, Kohl's, and the Goodwill.

 

I am wearing a stretchy blazer from Rue 21 $8.50.  I found this lace dress at Forever 21 for $6.99, I am really loving lace lately, I just think it looks so elegant.  I purchased the gold watch at Shoedazzle during the bogo sale, which was buy 1 get 1 free!  The black heart locket purse I found at Forever 21 for $4.99.  Last but not least my Colette shoes are from Shoedazzle, which I have already posted about here.
