Everyday Makeup Look- Netrual Eye and Nude Lip


Happy Saturday Friends! I hope your having a relaxing Saturday. Today I'm showing you another make-up look which is simple and easy to do. This is a perfect everyday look, that anyone can do. What I think is most important  for an everyday makeup look is flawless glow-y skin, long lashes, and a groomed brow. If those 3 things are done then you'll put together. Of course you should do what makes you feel gorgeous, and makeup should only accentuate your beauty.

Toddler Fashion: Bow Ties

   Putting together outfits for my toddler has become one of my favorite things to do. I thought dressing up was just for little girls but, boy was I mistaken. When B is all dressed up, he looks like such a little gentlemen, its adorable. He and I both have grown to love bow ties, which makes dressing up so much easier. If he didn't like them I wouldn't put them on him just to run errands. But when he has one on he says "bow tie", which is too darn cute. I have to thanks the moms on Instagram who've started our love of bow ties. One mom in particular is Masonkjsmommy, I get inspiration from her son Masons' outfits daily!

 So we both got dressed, I try even though he always out does me, and headed to the mall to do a return. We first went to play at Dave and Busters, then did a little shopping and ended our day with ice cream! I always have fun with my little gent!







 After running around the mall we went home. It was such a nice day so I let Bobby play outside for a little bit. He loves throwing (and eating) what's left of the snow. He'll run after you with his tiny hand filled with snow and try to hit you with a snow ball. Today gave us hope that Spring is on its way! Thank You Lord!




The details:
 Bow tie- Target (old)
Shirt- Ralph Lauren Polo (same shirt from his Sesame Street Party link here )
Sweater- H&M (recent)
Belt- Walmart (check out my last post about toddler accessories link here )
Jeans- Children's Place (old)
Shoes- Nike ACGs
Hat- H&M (last year)

Two Fashion Must for Your Little Boy

Today I want to show two recent outfits I put together for Bobby. It nearly impossible to take a good picture of him, so I only have a couple of shots. Dressing a toddler boy is so difficult since most cute stuff is made for a girl. Here are two accessories I think add to any little guys outfit

The 1st look is a super cute and casual outfit that's perfect for everyday!I've added a black belt to the outfit, which I think is the perfect toddler accessory. I found a 2 pack at Walmart for 6 bucks! I know in some of the pictures you cant see the belt but it's there and his shirt was partially tucked in!

 The details: Jacket- H&M (recent) Tee- Walmart (still available) Belt- Walmart (recent) Jeans- Children's Place (old) Shoes- Timberland boot 


I've found that anytime we add this neutral scarf to an outfit we always get so many compliments. If you don't have a scarf  then you can make a tee-shirt scarf ( link ) or you can always purchase one and hem it to fit your little guy.

The details: Vest/shirt/jeans- Calvin Klein (TJ Maxx) Scarf- Handmade from Bobby's co-worker

Glade Expressions® Collection Product Review





























Recently I was offered the chance to review the NEW Glade Expressions Collection. Glade says that the Expressions are: true-to-life fragrance combinations inspired by art and designed to open up note by note, filling your home and inviting life in. Stylish packaging combined with long lasting fragrance is the perfect way to combine home decor with home fragrance.

Here is my first impression:
    The Oil Diffuser in Pineapple and Mangosteen
An extremely tropical scent. It smells great, like a summer day sipping on a tropical drink. 
The packaging was nice, it looks a lot better then the reed diffusers I had years ago.
 Easily accessible since they're available at Walmart, you can purchase them 24/7
Very kid and pet friendly
 The scent lasts for weeks. Longer then any other flam less home fragrance I've used.





2 simple steps and the oil diffuser is put together


The Fragrance Mist in Cotton and Italian Mandarin
The packaging is sleek with nice modern twist
The scent is a fresh scent, it leaves the space smelling clean
Take away any odor
Easily Accessible





I've used Glade products before in the past I was never unhappy but I was never happy with them. When the chance to do this review came I was expecting to be underwhelmed. I put the oil diffuser together in 2 simple steps, then immediately smelled the amazing tropical fragrance. I loved it, but I feel in love when I woke up the next morning and the scent was still there! I don't think it'll work as well in a large space, but in a small space such as an entry way, bathroom, or hallway it would be perfect. I highly recommend the Glade Expression Oil Diffuser in Pineapple and Mangosteen. This will be a re-buy for me, for sure! The Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist works just as it said it would. The packaging is sleek and modern, you can remove the label so it blends easily into any decor. I like to use a fragrance mist to freshen up a room such as the bathroom or kitchen. I don't buy mist products too often I've used the Febreze Linen and Sky in the past. I did like the Cotton and Italian Mandarin and will be replacing the Febreze. For the price both of these products are worth a try!








This review is 100% honest. I was given these products for free from the Bzzagent Glade Expressions campaign.

Halloween Weekend 2012 plus an Update


Hi my long lost friends! Oh how I've missed you! I'll spare you all the "I've been so busy" busniess, and honestly say that blogging had to take a backseat for a while. I wish I could say I've been yachting in St.Tropez for the entire summer and came back with an amazing tan! Or won the lottery and decided to live off the grid, so I don't spend all my winnings! But that would be a lie and the truth is life happened! I'm not 100% back, probably closer to 70% so please be kind snd bear with me! I'm back to being a SAHM to little B, which is way harder now that he's almost 2. I've missed blogging so much and I'm glad to be back to share my journey again!
This past weekend we went to the Pocanos with our Queenie (the name B calls my mom). They had a Halloween weekend at the campsite she stays at. It was such a great time. I couldnt believe some of the amazing decorations people had set up. Chainsaws, lights, fog machines and scary music just to name a few. B dressed up as Mickey and I did a quick and easy black cat look.





I hope everyone effected by hurricane Sandy is holding up well. Its so windy here, I cant remember wind this bad! It sounds like our roof us going to blow off! But all is well and Im wishing you all the same!
Make sure you stay in contact! Im on twitter @sensation _finds and instagram @sensationfinds all the time! So lets chat! Also comment below and let me know what your Halloween plans are!

Product Review Blog: The Shops at Target



I'm doing quick product review blog on The Shops at Target. I took pictures of The Shops displays when I went on Sunday. Most of them were end caps and had large signs above there location. I did show you the merchandise that they had, but never told you what I thought. 



24850_Shop The Webster's Apparel & Accessories Items, Part of The Shops at Target - Opens 5/6

The quality of the clothes are OK for the price. They're about $35.00 and up. I thought it was a ton of resort wear. It's perfect for a summer vacation, but not everything would work for my everyday style. I only purchased one dress that I didn't take pictures of. The accessories were really nice, I loves how well made the earrings were. The funny thing I saw, was Target is selling the exact same style of earring for half the quality and price. You would think they would make a different style.




24850_Shop Select Polka Dog Bakery Pet Items, Part of The Shops at Target - Opens 5/6

The Polka Dog Bakery had the cutest collars and toys. The quality was nice and I think it's a great buy for any pup.




24850_Shop Privet House Home Items, Part of The Shops at Target - Opens 5/6


I was kinda disappointed by Privet House. I thought there would have been more items. Everything at my store is pictured below. I really wanted the tray, but I didn't see it (maybe it's online only). I loved the coral color that they've used throughout this line.


This candle smelled amazing! I should have picked it, because it smelled that good.

I plan on going back and seeing if they put out anything else. As well as picking up a few more items.
                                 I would love to know what you purchased, and how you like it!

Today I had my first day as a juror, I can't even believe I got picked. It's exciting and nerve racking, at the same time. Follow me on twitter(@Sensation_Finds), to hear all the details.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope your having an amazing day friends!
