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 :)

Makeup compliments of Shannon Villanueva my Mary Kay Consultant.

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

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
