a night out can turn sour pretty quickly. may be due to weather reason or someone canceling. here are a few rules/steps you can follow to make any night on the town amazing:
1) Always Have An Umbrella !! (very important)
we are in the transition from summer to fall. so here in New York the weather is unpredictable. one day it may extremely hot , another cold & another it may be pouring rain. i always like to keep a travel sized umbrella in my bag just in case. its small and light so it doesn't weigh my bag down. but if it starts to drizzle i'm ready for it.
2) Plan
sometimes it is better to plan ahead of time if you want to go to a specific club or restaurant that is known to always be packed. have another option in handy just in case the first one falls through.
3) Don't plan
i know this kind of disregards rule 2 . but sometimes just going with the flow of things makes everything so much better. there's so many things to do in New York. just get lost and you'll find them,
4) Be Safe
this is probably something that comes naturally to everyone. just though it should be mentioned. for our over 21 readers especially ,if your out drinking with friends. don't ever leave your drink unattended !!! number 1 bar or club rule that i always follow.
There aren't really a lot of rules.
just remember to be safe, have fun & enjoy your night on the town!

Whats in my trash this summer
The summer is slowly coming to the end and the fall has begin. It's time for all the vampy looks to come out and my favorite shades or red to be wore on my lips but before I can start there let me get rid of some trash and share with you guys what I have used this summer. So if you want to see my summer trash please keep on reading.
Through this heat I used Suave 24 hour protection deodorant in the scent Sweet Pea & Violet which I love the scent. It also works very well. The only thing is that I don't believe how much invisible this product claims to be but other then that I loved it.
I am also replacing a beauty sponge. I have had it about four (4) months and even though I wash them regularly I like to replace them. I got this one off of amazon which I tend to buy most of them because they are great quality like the beauty blender or even better sometimes in my eyes so why spend the money of the beauty blender when I can purchase at least eight (8) or ten (10) for the same price.
I went through two (2) makeup wipes that I got in my local deals store for a $1.00 a piece to clean swatches and my hands after applying makeup. I would not recommend these makeup remover wipes (look above in photo) because they were to rough for my liking to remove makeup on my face. I would prefer the simple or ponds makeup remover wipes to actually remover your makeup since they are more gentle on the skin.
What I have been wearing on my face almost all summer has been a tinted moisturizer or a bb cream. I have not fully finished this Wet n Wild ultimate sheer tinted moisturizer in the shade 182 natural. Since it has SPF in it of 15 it seems that it is going back since it is way darker then it should be and also has a weird smell so it is definitely time to toss it. It was the perfect coverage for the summer because it felt like I had nothing on and it was so easy to apply I could use my hands if I wanted to even though I applied it with a beauty sponge to get that air brush finish.
The concealer I pretty much used all summer was the Maybelline Fit Me in the shade 20 Sand Sable which is my all time favorite drug concealer. I can't get enough of it that I am already using my backup.
Since the summer I am an oily child and yes I know very strange since in the winter I'm as dry as they come but the moral is I went through a whole pack of NYX Green Tea blotting sheets. I loved the smell of them but also they did the job. I'm not the type to get into highend blotting sheets unless I must have them then I can't help myself. The NYX one's are very affordable so if your on the market for blotting sheets you might want to look into those since they come in many scents. The color package ones come with 100 and the normal black and white come with 50. I realized that when I brought the NYX blotting sheets I am currently using. They are in the black and white packaging.
This summer I was definitely on a NYX kick because I also used up my NYX mascara called Pin-Up Tease. The shade is in black but that is the only shade it comes it. I loved the wand on this mascara because it is flexible enough to get in the inner corner lashes so the lashes get an even coat. The wand also had flat sides with no brutalizes which I found different. Another mascara I finished this summer was Cover Girl Flamed Out in the shade Black Blaze. This wand is in the design of a hour class shape so I had to get use to it but I did like the effect it left on my lashes alone. I looked like I had false lashes on since I like my normal lashes its perfect when I want a dramatic look to go out.
I got rid of two (2) Sephora glosses that seem to just not work since they have glitter in them. The shades are Coral Pink and Multi-Glitter. I wouldn't buy these individually. I have them because they came in a set. They last gloss which I actually did use up is from Avon Glazerwear Shine in the shade Darling Pink Rose Mignon. It was a nice shade of pink that I can top on any lipstick of wear alone by its self.
The three (3) travel perfumes that I finished up were Prada Candy witch was a sweet scent of candy hint from the name. I also used up Burberry Brit which I found the scent type strong so I tended to use it when I went out at night. The last perfume I used up was Marc Jacobs Daisy which is a floral scent.
