Bath and Body Works Paris Amour

I have had this lotion for awhile and I love it! Paris Amour was released by Bath and Body Works for the winter collection. The fragrance notes are french tulips, apple blossoms, and pink champagne inspired by a romantic stroll through the streets of Paris. I also have this in the fragrance mist. It smells really sweet, fruity, and floral! 


What's your favorite Bath and Body Works scent?

Hunger Games Nail Polish

Picture from Seventeen Magazine
The Hunger Games is one of my favorite books and China Glaze is releasing a collection of nail polishes based on the book in March around the time the movie comes out! YAY!!! These are the colors! There are solid, shimmery, and glittery colors. I like Dress Me Up, Fast Track, Harvest Moon, Electrify, and Luxe and Lush.


Which colors do you like the best?

Sally Hansen Fuchsia Power review and swatches

This is one coat of Sally Hansen in
Fuchsia Power.

This is one of my favorite nail polishes! It is a beautiful bright magenta pink. I feel that it's a great spring and summer color! It certainly is "powerful"! The color is very opaque so for me one coat is enough but you could always put a second coat just in case. It is very smooth and glossy so it's not necessary to put a topcoat. Overall I love it!!! You can buy this at a drugstore or any store like Walmart. 


 Would you wear this? Also, please vote on the poll to the right!

Limited Edition Godiva Chocolate


Ultimate Dessert Truffles Gift Box from Godiva is exactly what the name says. There are 12 different flavors based on popular deserts and pastries such as Red Velvet Cake and Chocolate Eclair. I got this as a present and it is one of the best chocolate truffle sets I have ever tried! I love truffles because of their hard chocolate shell and creamy insides. With these special flavors it is a total win-win!







What's your favorite brand and type of chocolate?

Spring 2012 Vera Bradley Patterns

Vera Bradley has come out with new spring patterns!


The first is Camellia. Evoking all the romance of a 19th-century garden, these soulful camellia blossoms offer a harmonious anthem of soft white, dusty taupe and shades of graphite gray. A wreath of laurel leaves bands the trim and repeats in the circular lining design.


I like the flowers however I would think for spring it needs more bright colors. It does match easily with any outfit though!


The second pattern is Island Blooms. Reflected in a crystal-clear aqua lagoon, intoxicating white blossoms and tropical chartreuse foliage recall a lively floral painting by Gauguin. Inside, a surprisingly modernist design blends beautifully, proving there's a tropic hideaway anywhere you look. Paradise Found! 


The turquoise is very pretty but the white stands out too much.






The third pattern is Ellie Blue. Like the colors of a faraway marketplace, shades of indigo blue set the stage for papyrus white, golden saffron and a touch of blue-gray. Inside and out, the Eastern-inspired paisley motif is charmingly highlighted by majestic and lucky white elephants. 


There is lots of intricate details in this pattern. If you are a big fan of blues and yellows then this would be great for you. I personally don't like those colors together but that's just my taste.


The final pattern is Rosy Posy. An eye-catching combination of petite paisleys and oversized florals for the modern-day gypsy. Layers of colors from burgundy to berry, coral to cream and lemon drop set a happy pace for the optimistic traveler in all of us! 


I love the colors in this pattern. It has huge flowers on a paisley background. 






Overall, I prefer the winter patterns such as tea garden, rhythm and blues, and very berry paisley. *After a while I do feel that Island Blooms has grown on me. The blue is gorgeous in real person! Do you prefer these new prints or the winter prints?
