*How to Beautify Ur Life...*

Easy...

*A Year Later*

Welcome Back to my Blog

 Forgive me, bloggers, for I have sinned.  It has been a year since my last blog. (LOL)

I decided to re-start blogging because I miss it and this break has been long enough.  From now on, my blog is going to be about life as a whole. I found that focusing on a particular topic is not for me and was keeping me from blogging about the things that I really enjoy.  

Some of my topics will include:

Crafts

Hair

Jewelry

Life

Shoes

Style

Travels... and much more.

 Cheers...and always beautify ur life.

The moment I saw Jessica Burciaga via Instagram (pic above) wearing such beauties, I had to find out more.

*Shoedazzle Dilemma*

Decisions... Decisions...  Today I received an email from Shoedazzle that I have $15 to spend, plus $39.95 from a previous returned item.  I immediately logged in and found so many new styles which I have posted some screen shots from their website below of my favorites.  I wish I could purchase all of these, but my shoe/heels budget is very limited these days.  I'm leaning more towards "Hurl" since I do not own a pair of tennis shoes with spike accents...

*Suit it up*

As some know already, I am now living in Florida and with that comes a new life and the job hunting begins. I was looking for a great suit and came across some interesting ones online.  Also, for those that are currently job hunting, make sure that you keep it very simple.  I've included some information below to explain what I mean by "simple".

*Heels From A Man's Perspective 2*

Who said Men can't pick shoes!... My friend Darnell sent me pictures of shoes that he like and I adore them all.  He also sent me pictures a while ago which are posted via > Darnell's Heels World 1.

*If any of the pics listed belong to you, please send me a message letting me know and I will credit, since these were sent via e-mail, I don't know where they originated from-Thanks*

*SHOE GIVEAWAY*

I'm sponsoring a giveaway via PrincessDominique.com for a pair of shoes which you may enter by HERE.

Good Luck!!!

Cheers...and always beautify ur life.

*My Bombshells*

Ever since I saw the CL pictured below I fell in love with them, but not with the price tag.  I believe them to be around $2,800 which to me that's extreme on my budget...

The Alternative...

*Baby Phat Violet*

As I always, I find excuses to buy more shoes.  This time, these were on clearance :-).  I am a size 7, and purchased a 7 1/2 since the front is a bit narrow or perhaps I have fat feet (lol). 

Shoe: Letisha
Color: Violet
Heel: 5"/1" Platform
Peep Toe with two ankle straps. 

Just wanted to share that even Baby Phat makes mistakes :-), unless it was meant to be "Viloet"...

*Cheetah for Less*

A couple months ago I purchased the JS Cheetah Pumps to match my Furla Bag which I fell in love with the first time I saw it at the store.  

As I was checking my FB, I came across the Qupid Pumps pictured below.  To me they look the same, except the strap and color tone of the shoe.  With a pair of JS you can't go wrong, however, if the price is right, I can go with a less expensive pair and still look fab.  

At the end of the day, budget, comfort and style are top on my check list.

*This is Why I Stick to Inexpensive Heels*

Today I decided to wear a pair of heels which I feel in love with the moment I saw them at the store.  I am quite disappointed since they were far out of my budget and I thought that by being a known designer, the quality was going to be better than those $20-30 heels that I own.  

Wrong...

*Weekend Tip*

Happy Friday!!!!

Keep it safe this weekend and make sure to wear SunBlock (I'm guilty of not wearing any). I need to start taking better care of my skin. 

I'm always missing from blogger, however, I can always be found on Twitter (beautify_urlife) updating and reading on the latest fashion deals and business oriented individuals.

And Now... a Weekend Tip!

*Guess Who???*

I came across this pair for $36.00, which I right away had to get since they can dress up a little black dress. ;-).  I purchased two pairs since my friend's birthday was at the same time and I found it to be a great gift.  At that time, they were still $120.00 via GUESS, now they only have the all black pair for $50.00.  This print pair are available for $119.99 via HEELS.

*Rayne Dazzle*

Last month I received my Shoedazzle selection since I wasn't pleased on the material and minor defects on them I returned them.  With the credit, I selected "Rayne" for this month and I love them.  The green color is so bright and beautiful.  This is a great pair for Spring and Summer picnics.  The bad news is that the front of the heel is narrow for me and my toes look like mini sausages trying to escape. :-)

Shoedazzle description of the shoe:
Fit:    True to size
Description:    Strappy faux patent-leather platform pump
Color:    Green
Heel Height:    3.5" heel*
Platform:    1.5" platform*
Origin:    Imported

Taken from Shoedazzle.com

 I found the same pair on Shoebuy in different colors.  I love the white pair because I do not have that color in my collection.  I find Shoedazzle shoes on other websites which I would like for shoe clubs to offer shoes that are exclusive to that particular club. Just a thought...

*What's a purse without a pair of Killer Heels*

On February 19, 2011 I ordered this beauty of a purse (Furla) from Bloomingdale's.  At the store it was $225.00 and I didn't want to spend that much for a purse, so I went online and contemplated the purchase for a couple of days until I saw it listed for $180.  On top of that I had a coupon for 10% which brought the total to $162.  My total purchase was $180.83 with tax and shipping.  Bloomingdale's have free shipping on orders of $150 or more if you have their store card, but I wanted the purse faster, so paid faster shipping.  This purse is beautiful, the material is so soft and it came with a bag for storage.

Of course I needed a pair of heels with this purse.  I was at Macy's just browsing and found the perfect matching pair to match this purse.  

~Jessica Simpson's Taupe Grey Pumps~

The combination with this purse is perfect.  This is a 5-1/2 heel which they do not seem that tall since it has a covered platform.  After wearing them the first time, I had to buy a pair of heel liners to prevent any more hurting and blisters.  Aside from that, I am loving them.

Cheers...and always beautify ur life.

*Home Shopping Network*

Confession: I'm hooked on HSN!!!!!  

I used to think that this website/tv program was for those people that didn't know what else to do with their money.  WRONG!!!. I turned into one of those people, but I am getting deals while shopping.  The best thing about their service is how fast I get my packages and no hassle returns or exchanges.  I found the items below at their clearance section ;-).

$14.95 Each (Purchased all three colors)

$14.90 Each (Purchased Turquoise and Black)

*New Beginnings*

April already!!! Too Fast.  I'm excited, finally moved to a bigger place with my fiancé... yes, I'm getting married in June and finally I have a place for gathering with friends, for my new sewing venture and for my "Elopement" (no we're not minors or running away.lol).  I can't really call it wedding or ceremony because to me that sounds like "church, hall, limousines, huge dress and the tears right after when in debt".  So no, we are just going to invite immediate family and close friends and just have a gathering, eat, drink and just have a good time.  

I am looking for a simple "evening" dress, and wanted to match it with a pair of Christian Louboutin (pic below) , however, as much as I would love to, I find that I can do much more with $1195.  At this point, I'm just happy that things are working for us and we are in a better place.   

*Just Fabulous March Selection*

This is my 2nd selection from Just Fabulous and just like my 1st pair, arrived without a scratch, plus the bonus "What to Wear, Where" book, however...

This book is colorful, fun, full of details, nice outfits and tips.

I should have looked at my purse closely since it has similar print, but in beige.
