Affordable shopping is all at Primark!

Galway, Ireland has become a very popular tourist destination with its beautiful valleys, castles and the shopping! Having one of the most fascinating stores I have ever been in, I couldn’t wait to share it with you. Think about this for a minute, clothes, shoes, jewelry, & accessories for incredibly low prices. This store, found in Dublin, Ireland is called Primark (or Penny’s depending on where you are)

While in Galway, my mom and I decided to take a little trip to Primark and see what the buzz was all about. Walking in you immediately wanted to by something. Even our B&B host in Galway said she can never walk in their without buying something. And that is where all her Christmas and birthday presents for her granddaughters come from. Even if its just a gift card. Everything is such affordable prices & great quality product. I thought I would just go in and look but ended up walking out with two new outfits, & earrings for less than $20! OH MY GOODNESS right?

Even though Primark may be over in London and Ireland, we in the US can enjoy their awesome prices & products simply by visiting their website www.primark.com Just pay the price plus S&H and before you know it Primark will be right on your door step. Happy shopping 🙂

Breast Cancer Awareness Inspired Nails from Lauren b.

The latest from Lauren b.: Everyone around the world comes together this month to support Breast Cancer Awareness. Whether it’s your mom, sister, aunt, or grandma we all know someone personally or have heard of someone affected by this terrible disease, and how important it is to support these women through their fight, and for a cure. Founded in 1985, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month has been supported by thousands of companies around the world using their trademark pink ribbon, which represents moral support towards women with breast cancer. And in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month, Lauren B. felt it was appropriate to create a nail art that is just as strong and fabulous as every woman battling breast cancer today. Using three Lauren B. pink shades, City of Angels, Clueless in 90210, #ImSoLA, we created a pink bow and layered it with an array of different colors with accent polka dots inside. This is the perfect manicure to rock for the month of October, to show your love and support!

unnamed-32
Step 1: Apply one coat our Nail Perfecter as the perfect base coat. Let dry for 1-2 min.
Step 2: Apply two coats of light pink, Lauren B. City of Angels. Let dry for 2-3 min.

unnamed-31
Step 3: On the accent nail using a very thin pointed brush, paint on the breast cancer ribbon using Lauren B. #ImSoLA nail polish.
unnamed-30
Step 4: Using a small dotting tool or toothpick, apply dots to the ribbon with Lauren B. Clueless In 90210 and Lauren B. City of Angels. Let dry for 1 min.
unnamed-29
Step 5: Apply Lauren B. Gel-like Top Coat for a perfect long-lasting manicure! Let dry for 3-4 min.

unnamed-28
Optional: For some extra flare, add some silver studs using a small dab of topcoat to the nail and then apply the studs. Show your support with nails that express the strength that women with breast cancer show everyday!

So, if you are a woman who travels or always on the go, like me; then Travalo is going to be your new best friend. When I travel I always forget to bring my perfume because it only took one time for TSA to throw away my favorite perfume for me to never travel with it again. I know you are thinking you can store it in your luggage and check it, but I don’t always have a check bag. I also worry about losing my luggage or the perfume breaking in my bag. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper and I no longer have to worry about that because I have Travalo I can now bring my favorite perfume anywhere. It is TSA approved and I can keep it inside my purse at all times. You never know when you may need a little squirt on your wrist, now it is readily available. It is so convenient to have it in your purse and not have to carry around that big cumbersome bottle that looks so nice on your dresser where it should stay.

Ladies travel with your favorite scent, get your Travalo at http://us.travalo.com knowing your favorite perfume is safely tucked away in your purse.

Kirsten Dunst Shines with Suave at the Premiere Of FX’s “Fargo” Season 2

491795280

The Lastest from SUAVE Professionals: For those who didn’t catch the first season of Fargo, there’s a reason to tune in – and said reason is the bold and brilliant Kirsten Dunst who stunned at last night’s season two premiere.

Her daring red lip and effortless waves created the perfect hybrid of natural beauty and glam. We tapped Suave Professionals Celebrity Stylist Jenny Cho to share the inspiration behind the look and her exclusive tips on how to recreate it with some of her favorite products.

Kirsten Dunst’s Look

According to Jenny, “I was inspired by her chic bob, so I wanted the main point of focus for tonight’s look be her beautiful texture, which I paired with a deep side part.”
· Apply Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Curl Defining Gel Serum to towel-dried hair, make a deep side part, and blow-dry with a diffuser until strands are completely dry.

· Relax some of the curlier pieces by misting Suave Professionals Flexible Control Finishing Hairspray onto sections and running over them lightly with a flat iron.

Stylist Tip: Uneven texture is the key to this look. Be mindful that you are relaxing the curlier pieces and not flat ironing to make them straight.

· Lastly, refresh hair with a burst of Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Weightless Dry Shampoo and then lock in the final look with a blast of hairspray.
All of the above mentioned products range from $2.69 to $4.99 at mass retailers, select drugstores and supermarkets nationwide.
