Tumble With Me

Hey love bugs!

I wanted to drop in and talk a little bit about my Tumblr.

I've had it for a few years now and I still love it. There's just something about getting inspiration from photos that I can't describe. It's a great feeling.

Whenever I need some motivation to look and feel fabulous I head over to my Tumblr dash and get my daily dose.

So here's where you can follow my Tumblr: deborahyanni.tumblr.com.

Let me know if any of you have one too!! Leave me the link in the comments!

Freezing

Ok soooooo...

I've decided to go on a spending freeze for the month of May.

My husband and I are going on our first cruise (individually and as a couple) on the 24th. We are super excited but with that comes the planning. I'm a bit OCD when it comes to being organized, but y'all knew that already. ;)

Anywho... with all the planning that I'm doing for our upcoming trip, I want to save as much money as possible. My last purchase of the month was MAC RiRi Woo lipstick and I plan to keep it that way. I'm sure that will hold me over for the month. lol

Good thing I decided to hold off on purchases and it's only the 7th of the month. I think I started just in time. 

So, my freeze will consist of anything that I DO NOT NEED. For example, makeup, nail polish, iphone cases, shoes, clothes, etc.

Have any of you ever tried to a month spending freeze? Were you successful?

Tell me! Tell me!

Well look at that...

Good morning love bugs!!

I came across a pretty cool local site here in the Central Florida area that had my blog on a list of local beauty blogs! Even tho it was from 2011. lol I cant believe I've had my blog that long.

My mouth dropped and I instantly began to blush. 

(I know I'm a bit over the top sometimes. lol)

The blog is TheDailyCity.com and the the article is Orlando + Central Florida: Orlando Bloggers. Click here to see the list.

There are some really great blogs on the list so be sure to check them out!

Also, thanks to TheDailyCity.com for adding my blog to the list. 

It's the little things that make a girl smile. :D

Weekend Update

Hi loves.

Here's another little weekend update for you.

Friday night my husband and I met up with some friends for drinks downtown. We'd had a crazy busy week so this was definitely needed. 

If you ever come to the Orlando, FL area definitely stop by some of the bars downtown. They're so much fun and there's something for everyone.

 My baby girl was sick this past week. :( She wasn't doing any better this weekend so I took her in to see the doctor. She got some meds but she's out of school for the next few days.

She's always happy even when she's sick. <3

How was your weekend?

Blogger Spotlight: RuthAshley.com

Happy Saturday!

If you've read some of my previous posts you'll notice that I reference one of my best friends, RuthAshley and her blog. Well here is a full on Blog Spotlight talking a little bit about her great site.

If you're like me and religiously read several different types of blogs (beauty, fashion, lifestyle, etc.) then you'll love RuthAshley.com.

For as long as I've known Ruth she's always been an open book. She loves to tell you about her life and what's going on in it. The best part about it, she's hilarious. No seriously. She will make you laugh and not even batt an eyelash. It just comes naturally. It's one of the many things I love about her. 

She also is a big tweeter. LOL We've been goin' strong on Twitter since 2009. We always talk about how great Twitter was back then as opposed to now. The problem with Twitter is that you're limited to 140 characters in a tweet. That's how her blog came about.

People have been urging her to start a blog and she finally did. I have to say, it's definitely a joy to read.

If you love a good laugh and enjoy reading life/personal blogs then definitely head over to RuthAshley.com.

I know you'll enjoy it.

Ordered: RiRi Woo

Hi love bugs!

I'm sure most of you heard that today MAC released the first product from the Rihanna collection. Yayyyyyyyy

It's a lipstick that's described as a cool tone matte red. I'm sure it looks pretty close to the signature red lipstick that Rihanna's always wearing. Either way, I'm super excited to get mine!

It went on sale today at 12pm est. I was watching the clock like a maniac and logged into the MAC site like my life depended on it. Lol. I got so much anxiety!!

Did any of you get the opportunity to order it? It's coming out again in June if you missed it.

Xoxo,

Deb

Vanity Girl

Ok... I think I have a problem.

Every time I think I'm satisfied with the setup in my makeup room I think of something else that would make it better. I guess that's what decorating is all about. Even though, I have to admit that I'm terrible at it. My house needs a serious make over. But that's for another time to discuss.

Anyway, I've been seeing these vanity table mirrors on several YouTube videos and decided to take a look online and do some research on them.

I found them at VanityGirlHollywood.com. They have different designs that fit almost any vanity set up. The cost is a bit steep but if it will get some good use from you then it's worth it, in my opinion.

Here are the ones that I've been looking at. Not sure when this little wish will become a reality but there's no harm in planning. :)

Hair Staples

Hey hey hey!

I know I haven't talked about my hair in a while. Seems like forever. But I just wanted to share some of my staple products with you all.

If you can remember back to my first few posts, I mentioned that I have very curly hair. My daughter has hair that's almost 100% identical to mine.

As you can imagine it's imperative that I find something that both of us can use. It just saves so much time getting ready in the mornings.

These 3 products are heaven sent. They smell great, moisturize really well and don't cause too much product build up in our hair.

1. Aussie 3 minute miracle

2. Shea Moisture Curl & Style Milk

3. Eco Styler Gel (alcohol free)

This is my daughter hair after a fresh wash and the above 2 products placed in it.

What are your hair staples?

xoxo,

Deb
