Hobby Lobby Jewelry Displays

Just a heads up to any ladies looking to display their beautiful new Stella & Dot jewelry. I was in Hobby Lobby this weekend and noticed they sell a myriad of these black jewelry displays. The following is just a sample of what they offered. And the prices? A-mazing! If you're looking for a great new way to display your wares, stop in and take a look. Prices ranged from $1.99 to $4.99 from what I saw (although your Hobby Lobby prices may vary).



Hope this helps, and have fun shopping!

Ulta Sale on Tarte Products


There was a message in my inbox this morning for $10 off of any $50 purchase of Tarte products from Ulta. Tarte is a little spendy, but a high quality brand. I can't tell you how excited I was! I bought their 12-Hour full coverage Amazonian Clay Foundation, Skinny Smoldereyes Waterproof eyeliner, a sample size of their lipgloss...all for $43 including shipping. The foundation alone costs $38, so this was a steal!!! Seriously people, check your emails!

I <3 Tarte Cosmetics.

LOTD (Look of the Day): Occassion:: Back-to-School Meet & Greet

I had a lot of fun at the boy's Back to School meet and greet last night, where we got to meet their teachers and a few of the other kids in their class. The night was a hit, and a lot of fun as well. Want to see what I wore?


Here goes...





...as well as some turquoise stacking bracelets and my wedding ring.

What did I wear with it? 

A simple plain white tee with a simple neckline.
Plain, dark blue jeans.
Casual black sandals. 

You can find these jewelry pieces and so many more beautiful accessories at 

Thanks for your time, and I hope you're great!

Historically Accurate: 1950s Makeup Tutorial


Love "macshadowcombos" on Youtube, and especially her historically accurate series. The 50s? My kind of decade. I want to look like this every day of my life.

Final Day for the Giveaway!!!


So the Back to School for Mommy Sale prices in my boutique will continue for another two weeks. Please feel free to check those out at any time in the near future to fall in love with Stella & Dot as much as I have, at a price we can all afford.

Many #Thanks

I'd just like to take a second out of my day to send thanks and praises to Lord and life for the clean air in my lungs, the soft skin on my feet and the kind heart in my chest. I'm surrounded by good people. Every day. It doesn't get more blessed than that. My love to you all, to all of it.

The Rest of My Wedding Jewelry Ensemble

So I had a few people ask about what jewelry I wore (in addition to the Paloma Stacked Rings) and I figured I'd throw a couple of shots together to show you. I wore my gold stud earrings and my Sutton Necklace, as well as a layered bracelet in crystals, gold and silver. My dress was black and my lips were red. Hope you enjoy!

Stella & Dot Paloma Stacked Rings, My Thoughts

I wore my Stella & Dot stacking rings to the wedding last night. They're gorgeous, the profile isn't too high that it snagged on anything, and I love how versatile they are. You can find them on sale right now in my boutique. And don't forget, the giveaway runs through Monday for a chance to win a new Haley necklace (which would look gorgeous with these rings).  

Hope you're all doing great and having a stellar weekend.

Big news, my first sale & a GIVEAWAY!!!

First, I hope you're all doing great! So I've been trying to find a way to make a supplemental income to my husband's salary but still be able to volunteer in the kids' classes and stay home with the baby. I started to see Stella & Dot everywhere - on Youtube, in magazines, on celebrities. So I looked into it and decided to purchase a franchise from them. So yeah, I'm a small business owner! Yay!

How does it work? I own a boutique on their site, and it includes all of their jewelry, purses and accessories. People can shop from that boutique, and I take care of them. I do any and all returns, answer questions, etc. So you can feel comfortable knowing I'll take care of you. And I get to throw fun jewelry parties locally, and can earn points for free jewelry. So exciting!

 So today is the start of my very first sale. I decided to do a giveaway in honor of my kickoff. I put together a few fliers and included them in this post. I'll attach the link to my sale in this post. Everything is on sale (and half of their products are less than $50 even before the sale prices), and everyone who buys anything is automatically entered to win the Haley necklace. I thought it was gorgeous, I hope you do as well. :) Alright, I'm rambling, I'm just so excited!

 Here's the link to the sale on my site, and I hope you're all doing great and please feel free to ask me any and all questions you might have! I have a few beautiful pieces I bought from Stella & Dot and I'll be posting pics of them to Facebook, etc. over the next few days. So stay tuned if you're curious. And if you've seen the vlogs recently, you've probably already seen them.

Hope this finds you all in good health and great spirits! Becky XoxoX

Sisterhood of the Travelling Box


I had never heard of anything like this before. But I have a woman's charity in town, and some beautiful family and friends I know could donate/share some beautiful things. I'm going to get started on my first Travelling Box right away! (If you know me, or are related to me, look for it in the mail in the near future) I think I'll diverge from just makeup and do a whole hair/skin and body/makeup/perfume/jewelry and accessories box. Fun!

Birchbox's Limited Edition CEW Boxes



#Birchbox #CEW #Limited Edition
  



I just ordered my Limited Edition CEW Boxes, one is the Prestige box and retails for $18 (and let's be honest, I'd pay that much just for the Fekkai sample alone) and the other is the Mass Appeal box and retails for $15. I bought them together, and it cost $28 (until I used my saved up Birchbox points and got the whole things for $8 including shipping. Win!). 

Here's a link to their site. But you might want to move with a purpose if you're interested. Last year the Prestige box was sold out fast.
