Check out "GlamLifeGuru" on YouTube!

Whenever I come across a blog or YT channel I really like, I always like to share them with all of you because maybe some of you would enjoy them as well!

I was newly introduced to her blog by a fellow blogger (I'm so sorry, I don't remember who it was) and I've been hooked on her videos ever since! 

Tatiana of GlamLifeGuru is a gorgeous image consultant/stylist that resides in LA. For fun, she likes to make videos such as fashion/makeup hauls, product reviews and my favorite videos - the weekly drugstore sales! Every week she does separate videos for CVS, Walgreen's and Rite Aid highlighting all of the sales on cosmetics as well as other great buys you can find. She also links in her information bar coupons (if available) on certain products and mentions if there are coupons out in the newspaper/P&G mailers, etc for certain products. SO HELPFUL!

I love checking my local drugstores for good deals on cosmetics, but I rarely ever check the websites for sales. Tati's videos are incredibly useful and by watching them, I'll know if I should in for a good deal on something I need! Because of her latest CVS video, I was able to snag a Physician's Formula product I've wanted which is normally $10.99 for $3.99. Totally awesome.

She is very well spoken and has an adorable, quirky sense of humor. Her boyfriend (or is it husband? I'm not sure) is the cameraman behind it all and usually says a joke here and there in each video. I've seen in her comments that some people find her bf to be a little over-the-top because he tends to compliment her or is "too" affectionate in her videos - and I understand that some people prefer to watch a certain video to get straight down to the point - some people don't like to hear ramblings, see footage of pets, etc.. but It really doesn't bother me at all. She is SO cute, and I don't blame him at all for saying how pretty she is!! She is providing awesome videos for everyone, free of charge, and she does say she does these videos for fun. I'm sure if she wanted the videos to be more professional, she'd easily be able to do that, but I like how her personality shines through in her videos and she doesn't edit everything out.

Anyways, hope you like her channel!

I need this necklace now.

Dulce Candy was wearing this really cute gold rhinestone spike/cone necklace in a few of her past OOTD's and I've been dying to know where she got it from. I asked around for a while, and came up with nothing. Finally, she posted another OOTD today wearing the same necklace. Turns out that it's from Forever 21! I was totally surprised to hear that as I figured it was a designer brand.

Apparently it comes in silver, gold and a charcoal/pewter metal? and retails for $14.80. It isn't available online, but I've heard from a couple of sources that they spotted it recently at their local Forever 21 stores.

I'll be on the lookout for it and I'm crossing my fingers that I'll find it! :)

Have you noticed that I've been completely obsessed with spikes lately? I have no idea why.

UPDATE: Thanks so much for those of you who alerted me that the necklace is now available online! How Ironic? lol Anyway, the link is HERE.

Blogger Crush: Swedish Bombshell Kenza






There are only a small handful of blogs I follow that are in a different language - one of them being the gorgeous Kenza. Seriously, can this girl get any hotter? Her blog is definitely one I check often (usually sobbing as I eat a gallon of ice cream.. LOL j/k) because of her beautiful photos and amazing sense of style. I'd love to raid her wardrobe.

"My name is Kenza Zouiten and I am a 20-year-old half Moroccan girl. I am self-employed, had a funny webshow Kenza & Tyra show which became the largest web TV program, but now continues as host of Channel 5 & Model Hunt! 

I also have my own shoe and clothing collections ( Wildflower by Kenza andJofama by Kenza sold in hundreds of stores throughout the Nordic countries) and I also have a jewelry collection called Guldfynd by Kenza sold at Guldfynd. 

Here in Sweden's largest blog with about 140,000 visitors each day I write about my everyday life, shoots, fashion, tvinspelningar, travel, shopping & lots of other fun things. " 

Check out her blog at http://kenzas.se/

Where do you look for style inspiration?


Have any of you heard of Wendy from wendyslookbook on YouTube? I haven't heard of her prior to today, and I fell in love with her channel! I thought this "25 ways to wear a scarf in 4.5 minutes" video is awesome! She has such a likable personality and is so pretty with an amazing sense of style.

I'm mainly subscribed to channels that talk about makeup, and I really don't know of many "fashion/style" channels. I'd love to hear about some of your favorites where you like to gather inspiration from! Let me know in the comments! :)

Hope you all have a lovely Wednesday!

51 Fabulous Bloggers!


I'm sure we all have a favorite blog that we check frequently for updates, and when you see a new post, it's the greatest feeling. Kind of the feeling you get when you've been going back and forth with bids on an exclusive, limited edition item (maybe a Chanel Lumieres Byzantines de Chanel Palette Highlighters) you really want on eBay and in the last mili-second, you won it. Or you received an awesome package in the mail you weren't expecting. Aaaaaaaah. Total nirvana.

I'm subscribed to hundreds of blogs. So many that sometimes my favorites will get buried in the abyss of new posts. That's of course what my Blogroll is for. A list of some of my favorite blogs so when I find that I have nothing to do, I can always refer to my Blogroll and click through the links so I won't miss a thing. (You can view my Blogroll HERE)

There are also several other blogs I adore that aren't listed. I went through my ginormous list, and compiled a mini-ginormous list of blogs that I think are awesome. Please don't be offended if your blog isn't listed. There was no way to name every single one, and I know for sure I did miss a bunch. (Although by the size of my list, it does look like I listed every single one.. lol)
