Beauty Box Swap

August 19, 2012

I recently participated in a really fun swap.  It was called the Beauty Box Swap.  It was hosted by 3 fun bloggers (Tiffany at Blabbering Thoughts, Megan at Absolute Mommy and Andrea at Shabby Kitteh).  Everyone filled out a questionnaire with their beauty product preferences and the amount of $ that they felt comfortable swapping. I thought that this was such a good way to meet other bloggers who have the same passion for makeup that I do.

I received my box from Tiffany at {{blabbering thoughts}}.  Check out her fun blog when you get a chance.  I received a fun and colorful polka dot bubble mailer filled with all things pink(ish) and wonderful!!  Here are pictures of the contents:

But you really must watch my YouTube video to see it all along with my sincere thank you to Tiffany.  I sent a package to Kristen at http://thisradientlife.blogspot.com.  Check out her blog too so that you can see what I sent to her from her wishlist.  I would do this swap again in a heartbeat so I hope the girls decide to host another one (hint hint)!

Have a great day!

These new pieces from Soft Surroundings are perfect for lighter layers and softer palettes and all the things we love about Spring (my favorite season). #ad

This outfit will be perfect for my trip to Palm Springs. It’s one of those super versatile outfits that I can dress up or down. And I can add an extra layer if needed too.

The pull-on style jeans are so easy to wear. I paired them with the softest gauze button down top in a gorgeous colorful floral print.

And who could resist the fun turquoise trimmed raffia cowgirl hat for a little extra sun protection?!👩🏻‍🌾

Weekend fit check… My first outfit from Good Ame Weekend fit check… 

My first outfit from Good American. Love the quality of the bodysuit, sweater and jeans. The relaxed style is different for me, but definitely still fun. 

The jeans are a petite length but still a little too long for me with their 30” inseam. I plan to just cut off 2 inches and have a raw hem instead.

It’s a cold day here in North Texas. No big plans other than a little family celebration for my mother in law’s 85th birthday!🎉🎂🥳
