One Direction: 'Our Moment' Product Review.

Hiiiiii my pretty babes!

Yesterday after work I picked up One Direction's fragrance, 'Our Moment'.  I've been wanting to pick this up for a while, but haven't had time!  So I was excited to see the a store in my local mall, instead of having to drive farther than I had to.

****photo is my own****

I'm pretty sure this was a great decision on my part!  I absolutely love it, so much.  This gift set that I purchased was $65 for a 3.4 oz Eau de Parfum Spray, 5 oz Body Lotion & 5 oz Shower Gel.  The set was valued at $95, so I feel like this was a great deal.  Especially since the 1.7 oz perfume is $50 & the 3.4 oz perfume is $60.  This was DEFINITELY a deal!

I love the scent of this.  It is not overpowering at all, as some fragrances can be.  There is a perfect balance in the fragrance.  During my shower tonight, I decided to use the Shower Gel, & then after Body Lotion.  I was trying to see if the scent would be too overpowering, & I was pleasantly surprised that it was not! The mix of flowers & fruit in this fragrance is a winning combination.  I'm especially happy with the bottle.  I absolutely love the bottle, & find it stunning!

Seriously, I am so upset that I waited so long to purchase this, but I will be continuing to wear this fragrance for a while to come.

My 10 Favorite Ways to Reduce Stress.

Hello pretty babes!

With Midterms coming up, there is bound to be a lot of stress in our lives.  If you're like me, (which I hope you're not) I stress over EVERYTHING.  Not just tests, but EVERYTHING.  At one point, I joked about changing my middle name to "Stress".  HA! But really, I'm always searching for ways to reduce stress, & just feel better overall.

The following 10 tips are just some ideas that I've come to love!

1. Identify what is stressing you out.
2. Procrastination.
3. Control.
4. RELAX.
5. Organization.
6. Learn to say "NO".
7. Listen to music.
8. Keep a journal.
9. Exercise.
10. Keep a routine.

When you identify what is stressing you out, you know to avoid these, or at least to TRY to avoid them.  This can cause a lot of stress to be relieved.  Avoiding things that cause you great stress can make you happier quite quickly.

Procrastination -- we all have done it at one point in our life.  I know that I like to get things done ahead of time, but when you have so much to do, it is easy to procrastinate with some items.  Not procrastinating is a BIG way to reduce so much stress.  If you don't have to worry about getting something done, why make yourself stressed out?

Know that you cannot control everything around you.  After you realize this, & accept this, I know at least for me this helped lessen the burden of stress very much.  There will always be things you cannot control.  Try painting your nails (this works for me) as a stress reliever.  It helps me reduce stress because I know that I CAN control it.

RELAX. Seriously, say it with me. RELAX. You NEED to relax, & always make time for this.  Even if it is just for an hour or so at the end of the night to wind down.  RELAX.

Organize your priorities.  This will lead to less procrastination, & then lead to less stress.

I am still working on this one.  Learn to say "NO".  I have this thing where I like to please everyone, & find it very difficult to tell someone that I cannot do something for them.  Always working on this.

Throughout the years, music has always been a healer for me.  It has a calming effect & can let you have a good cry.

I've started writing in a journal again, & damn does it feel good.  I write when I wake up, when I find time throughout the day, & before I go to bed.  It has definitely helped me deal with stress every single day that I have written.

Exercising releases endorphins, resulting in HAPPINESS.  You read that right! Happiness!!!! YAY.  We all want to be happy, & when we are less stressed we can be happy! So, exercise, exercise & EXERCISE!!!

I am one of those people who hate to break routine.  Don't get me wrong, I do really enjoy being spontaneous, but when I have a routine that I have followed or am used to, it will always make me feel less stressed & not worry so much.

ALSO, AS LONG AS THIS PHOTO EXISTS, I WILL BE STRESSED & NOT STRESSED AT THE SAME TIME.

That is all. Hahaha.

Fall Favorites!

Bonjour!

In honor of NYFW, I have decided to put together a few Polyvore sets of my favorite pieces for the Fall!  These are just pieces I really enjoy, or think would be great for the Fall.  In NO way am I an expert at this, (I may not even be good at it, haha) it is just something I really enjoy, & I hope you do, as well.

LINKS TO ITEMS HERE!

The right jacket & scarf can pull an outfit together. A scarf can add a little color pop to a dull outfit!

LINKS TO ITEMS HERE!

Sweater weather is my FAVORITE weather.  All of these items can be worn any way you wish, with the right accessories! The nerd in me loves the Forever 21 Comic sweatshirts!

LINKS TO ITEMS HERE!

Dresses are the easiest thing to wear when you don't feel like getting dressed! Add some tights or cute ankle socks & you're set! :)

LINKS TO ITEMS HERE!

Skirts are a cute way to dress up.  You can also dress down skirts with a more casual top!  All of these bags are some of my favorite trends.

LINKS TO ITEMS HERE!

SHOES. HATS. OH MY. I love them all. Ankle booties, knee boots & loafers are my absolute favorites for the season.  As always, I'm loving beanies, snapbacks, & other variations of hats, especially for a bad hair day!

As you can see, my style & favorites are a wide variety.  From camo & leather, to tartan & leopard, I like it all!  All of these trends can work for anyone, as long as you rock it!  

Comment with your fall favorites!  Let me know what you would like to see more of, or even send pictures of your outfits! I would love to see!

THIS IS US - REVIEW !!

HEY GIRL, HEYYYYY.

Seriously, where do I even begin?!!?

I cannot even explain how much I loved One Direction's film This Is Us.  From seeing parts of the show again, to how the boys act when they are alone together, the entire film was incredible.

The following pictures are some of my favorite scenes of the film:

LIAM AMPING THE CROW UP & CALMING THEM DOWN.

1D TAKING OVER THE WORLD.

LIAM PULLING HARRY'S PANTS DOWN IN CONCERT.

HARRY & NIALL TAKE FOREVER TO PITCH A TENT.

                                                                                                                                                                                  **Pictures are not my own.

If you haven't seen This Is Us yet, I HIGHLY recommend it.  You'll laugh, you'll cry & it will make you feel good.  Even if you're not a fan of One Direction, you will enjoy this film.  Take your Nan, take your Dad.  This Is Us is 92 minutes of pure gold.  Just as they've done before, One Direction has continued to beat records with This Is Us.

I wish the boys nothing but continued success, & can promise I will be seeing this film again... numerous times!

Let me know what you thought of the film! What else would you like to see on my blog?  Also, let me know what you think of the fragrance, Our Moment!

One Direction: This Is Us Premiere, Worldwide Release & What to Wear!

Hola babes!

I hope everyone is doing well!  This is such an exciting time to be a One Direction fan with the fragrance coming out, the VMA's & THIS IS US PREMIERES!  One Direction's This Is Us hits theaters this week.  If you've already seen it from the premieres (especially in London & NYC), I am officially jealous.  A few friends & I have already snagged our tickets for a 7pm showing at our local theater for Thursday! SO EXCITED. (YAY, that's Liam's birthday, too!)  As embarrassing as it sounds, I am contemplating taking a full box of tissues with me! Haha! Don't judge me! ;)

London Premiere

NYC Premiere

                                                                                                                                                                  **I DO NOT OWN THESE IMAGES

Did everyone watch the live streams of the premieres?! How did you all like them?  I, personally, enjoyed the London one more, but the NYC one was good, too!  It is always great to see how far the boys have come, & to see all the continuous support!  My favorite part of the interviews from today's premiere in NYC was Liam's parents, to be honest.  They are so kind, & so proud.  It was great to see another angle of One Direction, & their parents.  It makes me even more excited for the film!  Another favorite part of mine was when Louis asked one of the interviewer's if her phone was the iPhone 5, because she had a charging case & she let him borrow it for a few moments.  Never a dull moment in One Direction Land, huh?

As for what I'm going to wear, I've been trying to decide.  I admittedly have quite a few One Direction t-shirts, so I will probably choose from one of those.  Comfort is going to be key!  When you're at the movies, you don't want to be uncomfortable since you're sitting for a decent amount of time, so choose your outfit wisely! You're probably going with your gal pals, so enjoy!

Make-up wise, less is probably going to be best in this case.  I've already said I'm most likely taking tissues with me, so waterproof mascara is going to be a godsend, or none at all!

Again, I am SO excited for this film.  It will be great to see another side of the boys & get a more in-depth look of who One Direction really are.  Let me know if you've seen This Is Us already, or if you plan on seeing it!

Keep an eye out for my reaction post, I'm sure it won't be one to miss! ;)

Oh, & P.S. CONGRATS TO ZERRIE (Perrie Edwards & Zayn Malik) on their engagement!! I have never been more excited for them & I wish them nothing but continued love & happiness.

Live a little, Love a lot.
