Goodbye California

Heading home on a red eye tomorrow night. So the sunsets on another great vacation

The Lake

Today we left Yosemite and headed to Lake Tahoe. The water's so blue here!!

Big Trees

Today we went to the Mariposa Grove here in Yosemite to check out the huge sequoias.

"It's rustic"

So today we saw some redwoods in Muir Woods on the way out of San Fran. And then a long and windy car ride to Yosemite

So won't you save me, San Francisco?

Had a great day in San Fran, after such a fail of a day yesterday (all day in airports + turbulence). Went to Alcatraz, rode the cable cars, ate in Chinatown and at Ghirardelli Square. And I vlogged it all!

Airplane problems

Oh my gosh! Our flight got cancelled and now we've been in the airport for hours. Also, we got a layover. We're never getting to San Fran!!

Today's Look: Francesca Eastwood

Hey guys! So I was watching Mrs. Eastwood and Company (don't judge me?) and I liked Francesca Eastwood's makeup so of course I had to make a tutorial.

Today's Look: PLL Aria

Hey all! So today I decided to do an Aria Montgomery (Lucy Hale) inspired look. Her makeup is just so pretty and bold and my other two PLL looks have been popular so I thought I would do this one. Pretty much, Aria has a bronzey champagne colored lid and bold black liner and lashes and then she mixes up her lip color but it's almost always some form of pink. Here are some screenshots I was inspired by:

Today's look: No Doubt "Settle Down" Cover

Hello all!! So my goal for July is to get more active on my blog so I will be making a blog post to correspond with each video and perhaps a few bonuses.

And for this look I wanted something in this bright green color with accents of blue and that burnt red color of Gwen's pants. Here is what I came up with:
