Sorry for the break! My CVS, Ulta, and Joann's Haul!

Good Morning Everyone! 
CVS, Ulta, Target, and Joann's Haul!

So I wanted to do a quick haul for you all :) I will start with my Joann's haul,  as I only bought two things, neither of which are beauty related :) I purchased a yard of fabric to use as my background and a cup for my dorm room! So I guess I didn't take a pic of the cup...Sorry!
Ignore my nails lol!
Next up is my Ulta haul! I purchased a nicole by OPI nail polish in "baby" Blue from the Justin Bieber collection. I did not buy it because of that....I'm not a JB fan......he's fine and all, but I just don't see the appeal. 
 Here is all three of my nail polish colors that I purchased from Ulta together!

Yay for summer!

I honestly cannot believe that it is already June!!!! I just got back from my memorial weekend camping trip with my family. It was nice and I had a great time, but I am so glad to be home! I just became an eyeko ambassador, so please, order from me!!!! I am waiting on a few different packages from companies that are sending me products to review, so look for some new review videos! I am also in the process of deciding which camcorder to purchase so that I have a great hd camcorder to film all of my videos! I will also be filming a haul video in the next few days from all of my memorial weekend purchases! Thanks for reading! Love and Hugs, Deva

April 2011 (purple) Wish List

Good Morning! 
It's 8:23 am here and I am still sleepy, so I am hoping this cup of coffee helps wake me up! Now, onto my April wish list! I am so entirely glad it is April! That means I only have one more month until I'm done with my second semester of college, and it also means that I have my summer off to work until I have to transfer to my new college! I'm not sure where i'm going yet, but I will be living in either a dorm with my own room or an apartment that I will share with one other roommate! Here goes nothing! 

The first thing I have had my eye on is Amika's deep purple tourmaline curler! It's $99 at Sephora, and I absoluetly love it! I've had the chance to try it out and it is an amazing tool! http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P285150&categoryId=B70

Next up is Sephora's limited edition 3-piece purple nail polish set! The polish's themselves are all sparkly, but I love the range! At $11, it's a steal compared to what you would pay individually for these! http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P286030&categoryId=B70
Urban Decay's Stardust eyeshadow is the perfect blend of pastel and sparkle! The packaging isn't anything special, but what makes it special is the prismatic sparkles that are blended in with the pigment. For $20, it's a little bit pricier than a normal eyeshadow, but well worth it! http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P254101&categoryId=B70
This next piece is especially gorgeous! It is by Eye Shadow and it is their Mini Floral Racerback Tank. The reason why I put this on here is because it will fit me, but not some other people. This is a pre-teen girls shirt, but I am short enough for it to fit. It is $24 at nordstroms, and I LOVE it!

Since summer is rapidly approaching (at least in Kansas City it is!) I figured I should include some summer-y stuff! This swimsuit is by Carmen Marc Valvo and is a bit pricey, but well worth splashing out! It is the Kenya one-piece swimsuit and I just love the rouching, skirted bottom, color, and bandeau top! At $167 I would definitely splash out on this! http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/carmen-marc-valvo-kenya-one-piece-swimsuit/3148171?origin=keywordsearch&resultback=3200
This next item is for girls who are going to prom! This dress is gorgeous, and at $150, it's a steal! I love all of the detailing and the colors in this dress, I just wish I would of found it last year so I could of worn it to senior prom! http://www.therosedress.com/shop/products/itemNX.asp?id=2556&vendorid=NX

Last but not least is a handbag that is Oh-So-Fabulous! Dooney and Bourke has done it again with their Venus Nina handbag! It is on sale right now at Macy's for $155.99, which is a good deal for D&B! I love the purple pleather outside and bright red inside! http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=452704&CategoryID=45757&LinkType=#fn=COLOR%3DPurple%26sp%3D1%26spc%3D7
