Grapefruit Greatness

So I was a Target the other day do some retail therapy

and I remembered I needed to get some make up remover.

When I stumbled upon...

Neutrogena's Oil Free Cleansing Wipes in Pink Grapefruit

They are my new favorite beauty product!

They clean your face really well.

Get ALL the make up off including mascara.

Make your face feel all tingly and fresh...instant pick-me-up!

...and they smell so yummy!

So now I'm on a quest to get my hands on all things Pink Grapefruit.

The entire Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit line.

Yes To's Grapefruit Product Line

Stark Skincare Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm 

Burt's Bee's Refreshing Lip Balm with Pink Grapefruit 

Williams-Sanoma Candle and Kitchen Products

Can't wait to try this yummy scrub recipe!!

Grapefruit salt scrub
Salt scrubs are great for exfoliating and moisturizing at the same time. Try this recipe to make your own at home (it keeps in the fridge for up to 2 weeks).
Ingredients:
1/2 cup kosher salt
1 tbsp. grated fresh ginger
1 tbsp. grapefruit zest
1 cup almond or sesame oil
Directions:
Stir all ingredients together and store in an air-tight container. Voila! You just made your own grapefruit scrub to use all over your body (but because of the salt I recommend you avoid your face or freshly shaven legs!).

One of my favorite stores to find great Gator Gear...

Victoria Secrets Pink Collegiate Line

They have all major colleges plus some.
...but I'm going for the Orange and Blue.

Isn't this hoodie so adorable and comfy looking? 

A football jersey but made for a lady's curves.

Great with jeans, a skirt, of my fave...my blue and orange plaid shorts.

Your man will swoon over this lacy but sporty panties.

Protect your face from the sun with this adorable hat. 

Any Gator guy loves a girl who is laid back enough to rock a ball cap and ponytail.




Go cheer on favorite team with some fun attire.

Fall Forcast

Fall Trends are upon us.

Living in FL, we don't get of a winter but, we do get a fall

and this is fantastic!

It's the time of year to trade...

Shorts for cords.

Flip Flops for boots.

Tanks for over sized comfy sweaters.

...and ponytails for hats and headbands.

Three Major Trends for 2012...

MODERN MIX UPS.

FEMME FUN

GRAPHIC EDGE

Modern Mix Ups

Plaid meets plaid and tweed takes over in a mix of cozy textures and Autumn hues. Add a hint of metallic flair whether on your wrist, heels or anywhere that begs for subtle shine.

Femme Fun

Take lady like to a all new level of glam with soft peplum accents, lacy skirts, and flirty strappy heels. Give it a tough girl edge with a sleek leather jacket.

Graphic Edge

Sixties retro edge is making a huge comeback, especially with today's modern sleek shapes. Don't be afraid to add a pop of color or a simple print to amp the drama.

...and now for beauty.

Since I have full lips, bold, lipstick has and always will be one of my fave beauty trends.

Any season.

This fall, a dark red is right on point, and will make a major statment.

Definitely major girly or rocker chick.

A girly girl's number one rule?

To smell divine.

I'm pretty picky about my scents so when I find worthy of my
 skin, I scope it up.

This perfume by BCGB is no exception!

The package makes me smile from ear to ear.

Who wouldn't feel feminine and flirty wearing this sweet scent...

Retro mean big bold cat eyes.

 Played up with fun colors.

This cream shadow by Bobbi Brown is perfect to achive that look.

It goes on smooth, stays, and come in tons of edgy colors.

I hope all theses trends inspire you to feel and be fabulous right into winter.

What's your favorite?

Dainty Duvet

So I finally got new bedroom furniture!

Me being the type of girl that in a perfect world by bedroom would be be full of frills, romance, 

and fresh crisp matching linens...

I'm hunting for the perfect bed duvet.

Something girly yet simple.

Something that makes you want to lay in be all day and read.

Something that will sparkle when candles are lit.

Something that you will get a perfect night of beauty sleep in.

I think I found it!

Thanks to the always amazing store Anthropologie.

Isn't this just the epitome of  divine?
