HAUL: ULTA Black Friday

In the excitement of having a bit of extra money, coupled with the overwhelming stress of moving two households, I ordered some goodies off of ULTA.com, during the Black Friday sales.

Trash Talk: Summer Empties

Ok kiddos, it's trash time! I had a busy summer and just didn't get around to this portion of integral documentation within the #bblogging realm.

A Quick Thing....

12:16 AM

Hello all! I want to talk about something important: procrastination and perfection. I've had too many posts planned on here and I've overwhelmed myself to the point of not even writing because I wanted the post to be crafted with a certain creative direction. I wanted to go beyond my resources and create some cool things, photography-wise, and I just keep...missing the mark....
