*This NUME In Vogue Titanium plated professional hair straightener (retail price $169 my price with coupon $59) is the hair straightener I splurged on. I was in need of a great new straightener anyway, as my old faithful CHI is loosing some of its ceramic coating. This just gave me the nudge I needed. Plus I’ll be able to try a new brand and give you all a review on it as soon as I get my hands on it!

Perfect365

Hello Liner Loves! Today’s post is short and sweet and will leave you full of inspiration. Get ready to download a FREE app!

So, my boss Diana, the owner of The Red Dress Boutique told me about a new (at least new to me) app called Perfect365. If you have an iPhone or an Android smartphone, download it NOW. How I did not know about this app already, I don’t know!

What this app does, is let you take a picture of yourself (preferably clean, bare faced) and “try on” different makeup looks. It’s the virtual world of getting a makeover. You can also use this app for photo editing a picture of yourself (when you’re already dolled up). This is what I did. The photo below is a picture I downloaded to the app and then added different looks to it. Here are a few of the ones I played around with.

*TOP LEFT picture is the original, all others were altered using the Perfect365 app*

Now, my favorite app for editing pictures is camera+ (another AMAZING photo editing app). However, I am loving this Perfect365 app and adoring the way it makes my face/makeup look in my pictures. Try it and tell me how much you LOVE it! Also, check out all the AMAZING NEW ARRIVALS at The Red Dress Boutique… everything is to die for!

XOXO

Makeovers Fix Everything

This little Disney message appeared on my Pinterest feed the other night… and I thought it was very fitting for showing you all a couple of the new eyeshadow palettes I splurged on from Urban Decay recently! Urban Decay has a TON of amazing deals on their SALE section of their website. Check out all the sales HERE!

Now, I’m the type of girl who wears mostly natural and earth tones on my eyes, but I’m very excited to branch out with these fun, bright colors for Spring!

If any of you are in need of an eye makeover, snatch up one or more of these amazing palettes. I’m sure they wont be around for long! Plus it’s an amazing deal! Below are the two I got. I’ll Tweet and Facebook pictures and swatches when they arrive!

DELUXE SHADOW BOX Price: Was $38 Now $13

MARIPOSA PALETTE Price: Was $39 Now $15

Wishlist Wednesday

Today is a WANELO (Want, Need, Love) day.If you haven’t checked out that app yet, it’s very similar to Pinterest. Now, even though I found these pictures on Pinterest, and not the WANELO app, they are all on my current wish list! I feel very blessed, lucky, and privileged in my life, and I know I don’t need much else… however, an adorable Yorkie puppy and kitten would help make my life complete! As would a badass makeup vanity area like the one pictured in the bottom left. And that elephant sweater… don’t get me started, it’s just TOO CUTE!! So if anyone out there wants to send any of these my way…. I’d be more than ok with that!

What are things on your current wish list?? Let me know by commenting below!

XOXO

Every Girls Dream World

A few weeks ago I had the privilege to work the Mart in Atlanta. For those of you who don’t know, this is where boutique and store owners go to order and buy inventory for their stores. Working the Mart consisted of modeling clothes and writing up orders for the buyers. The Mart has everything from shoes, accessories, clothing, wedding gowns, prom dresses, and jewelry! Even though I was working hard during these concentrated few days… I was also able to shop a little while there. I was lucky enough to have added some amazing new pieces to my clothes and jewelry collection!
