This post is sponsored by SocialStars and Lenscrafters. Thank you for supporting the brands that support me. #lenscrafterscrowd  I’ve been telling you all about some of the great features found at Lenscrafters and so this weekend I decided to test out all those features in person by visiting my local LensCrafters store and having an eye exam. Scheduling my appointment was easy. I just went online, found a LensCrafters in my area and made the appointment. I even got a text reminder a couple of days beforehand to remind me about my appointment.  When I arrived at the store checking…

2016 Beauty, Fashion, and Lifestyle Goals

2016 Beauty, Fashion, and Lifestyle Goals

Okay, so you guys now  had to do an obligatory New Years Resolution Post. Last year my main resolution was to step out on faith and turn my blog into more of a lifestyle blog.

The 2015 Kia Soul Makes a Believer Out of Me.

Okay, so I may have had to eat my words after driving around in a 2015 Kia Soul for a week… Back in 2011 I purchased a 2012 Kia Sorento, the dealer tried to get me to check out a Kia Soul and I just couldn’t do it. It was boxy and being marketed by overweight hamsters. I was full of “nopes” that day and couldn’t even believe that someone would even want to take a car like that home.  So umm yea about that. Granted, it’s been five years since I had these thoughts but yo! The Kia Soul…
