Happy Monday everyone… This week I am trying to kick my a** back into high gear and jump back into life and be a better blogger. This past week has been a super busy one with my puppy Khloe getting injured and getting surgery. It will be a 6 week recovery til she is completely healed, but boy oh boy am I looking forward to things getting back to normal. So with that said its time for On The Menu, Vol 2…
This week I as I am heading back into the blogoshpere full time, I decided to jump into high gear and give a bit of link love, so this post will be a bit different-with a few upcoming updates for you to come on Makeup Life and Love.
HOT IN HERRREE//Lately the weather in Southern California is wacky for sure. It is part holy hell hot, then it turns to hard core rain and thunder. WTF! Either way this week I am praying for NO rain on Thursday when I go to see the Monster Tour featuring Eminem and Rhianna- expect to see loads of videos on instagram.
BUDGET BEAUTY UPDATE//This week I will be giving you a few doses of budget beauty. In case you missed the sneak peak of an exciting post I have coming up with Neutrogena and Collective Bias showcasing some solid #AllDayLook and finishing the week off with a drugstore beauty haul of some great new finds. #budgetbeautyupdate
FYI// OMG have you heard that Bravo bought the rights to finally show the Real Housewives of Melbourne in the USA? Holy wow, a new dose of international drama brought to you by Bravo. In case you missed it- it airs Sunday at NOON. #SummerMustSee
Okay enough of the updates. Your turn: Anything you are looking for an update on? Aren’t you excited for Fall to come? Rants? Raves? New Beauty Favorites?
*****
Now on to the menu of some solid read worthy link love- Besides it’s the best way to kick start this Monday:
- I am absolutely obsessed with closets lately, and so I keep coming back to a bit of Closet Inspiration
- This DIY lip scrub is rocking my world lately. Nothing tastes as good as chocolate feels, right?
- Now I am not usually a red lip girl, but I am lovely each and everyone of these Best Red Lip picks by Laura. Let’s face it a red lip is timeless, classic and a great way to bring out your inner sexy!
- I am on a health kick, and this Lemon Quinoa Avocado Salad sounds like serious #AMAZINGNESS. I am totally making it this week.
- Utterly in need of more eye liner, and I am obsessing over these Marc Jacobs liners that Kath has been rocking, I am in major need! (Plum)age is literally calling my name through the internet and into my Sephora checkout cart.
And in case you missed anything on the menu from MLL…
- My newest and prettiest, lip loving obsession
- Probably one of the priciest skincare products I own, but totally worth it- BIG TIME!
- Getting my glow on…
- A budget beauty update with #WalgreensBeauty
