I’m a little late but I have been searching for a look from last week that I liked, I have yet to find one! I have decided to post inspirational pictures. These photos inspire me for a variety of reasons. Enjoy!!

Love & Marriage
This past weekend I attended my friends’, Chris and Jade, wedding. August is clearly wedding season, seeing that there has been at 7-10 weddings amongst friends this month alone. I was happy to be asked to share in such a momentous time in their lives. The ceremony was beautiful, with special touches, such as personalized fans to fan yourself during the outdoor ceremony (of course I didn’t think to take a picture) and pink roses to throw at the newly married couple.

It was great getting together with friends I haven’t had a chance to spend time with in years. But it is like we never skip a beat, we always pick up where we left off.
I truly enjoyed myself this weekend, the most fun I have had in a long time.
It’s beautiful to witness the love between two people. ❤

My First Birch Box!!
Hey Loves, this weekend I received my first Birch Box box. I was super excited when I the box arrived at my door. I decided to subscribe to Birch Box so that I would feel like I am getting something exciting every month, and save money by not spending on other random stuff. I can’t say that my theory has worked thus far, but I am happy with what I received.
(Clockwise)
Beauty School pamphlet– a back to school beauty guide on makeup brushes and quick fixes, understanding beauty product labels, 5 ways to shave, and skin care.
Schick Hydro Silk– I was happy to receive this, a good razor always comes in handy.
Juicy Couture: Viva la Juicy La Fleur– Smells great, I am a huge fan of smell-goods.
Miss Jessie’s: Stretch Silkening Crème: While my hair is natural, I do not wear it in its natural state, so I am not sure when I will get a chance to test this product, but I was happy to receive it, it shows that Birch Box is diverse.
Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream: This is supposed to help heal chapped skin, ie: crusty summer heels. It supposed to help “problem dry skin, split cuticles, cracks, chapped lips, hard heels, eczema, and sunburns” (their words not mine).
Pixi by Petra: Lip & line (3011): I am not sure about the color but I was also excited to receive this product. I had seen this brand previously at Target, and I was interested in testing it out. It’s a little pricey, that why I would not allow my self to purchase it.
If you are interested in subscribing go to Birchbox.com, there is a waiting list. It takes about a week to get officially signed up. The subscription is $10 a month, and you can cancel at any time. Let me know if you decided to sign up and what you think about Birch Box!!!

Summer Music at NJPAC
Hey Lovers, the last two weeks I went to NJPAC’s free weekly concert. On Thursdays, starting in July thru the end of August, musical artist from all different genres come to perform to hundreds of fans. Along with fans are those that come to just hang out and socialize, I am one of the socializers.
I hadn’t realized or paid attention to my shorts being that short. I should have tucked in my shirt.
If you are a follower of my blog you know my pics never come out quite right, lol.
