City Limits

I dont know what's up with me & videos.

I guess they are easy to post & fun to watch.

I also stumbled across this.

It's so gorgeous!

I live in Portland,

& even though it's a city it's nothing compared to New York.

Which I've never been to.

I'd love to visit a big city,

this video just makes me want to live in one.

Again, enjoy!

& Happy Thursday.

Anyways enjoy!

Happy Wednesday Thursday my lovely followers!

Mary Had A Little Lamb, & Cat, & Duck

Isn't she amazing?

I love Amanda Seyfried & her movies.

Especially Letters to Juliet, & Dear John.

I can't wait to see Red Riding Hood.

What a great photoshoot.

Love the looks & the smokey eye makeup.

She is so gorgeous!

Beauty Tips

So now I'm a major stumbler (look at previous post for more understanding).

And I stumbled across this from Elle.

Some beauty secrets revealed by using ordinary household items/something every girl has.

Can't wait to see if it really works!

#1

 

Buttons
Repurpose spare buttons by using them to keep pairs of earrings together: Most buttons have at least two holes in them, so simply place an earring in each opening to neatly store when not wearing. Photo: Jupiter Images

                           (I have an earring hanger thingy, but I loved the idea! Creative.)

#2

Eyebrow Brush
Stuck without a lint-remover? Use this handy makeup tool to remove unwanted fuzz from your shirt. Photo: Courtesy of Sephora

(Never would have thought of that, now I know!)

#3

  

Dryer Sheets

No time for a shampoo? Rub a dryer sheet on your hair to tame flyaways and make your hair smell shower fresh. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

#4

Unused Stockings Create a chic shrug by taking a pair of tights or stockings and cutting off the feet (or use a pair of footless tights to save a step). Place arms where legs would normally go and—voila!—you’ve created a sleek spring alternative to a shawl or cardigan. Take it a step further by cutting slashes into the fabric, à la Monique Lhuillier’s ballerina-inspired fall 2009 collection. Photo: Imaxtree

(Love, love, loveee this idea! Doesn't look like stockings at all, but some really awesome shirt things.
Favorite one!)

#5

Eggs
Strengthen hair by creating an egg yolk-and-olive oil hair mask. The protein in the egg yolk will toughen up tresses, while the olive oil will act as a conditioning agent. Photo: Jupiter Images

                                                                       (I wanna try this!)

#6



Honey
If your skin is sensitive and blotchy, apply a couple tablespoons of honey to your face and leave on for five to 10 minutes. The honey will moisturize, soothe, and help kill blemish-causing bacteria. Photo: Jupiter Images

( I have plenty of this, that's for sure! Since my daddy's a beekeeper & we got our own business: Bee Way Honey Pollination Inc. )

#7

Flat Iron
A hair straightener works great for ironing between buttons on your shirt, where a regular iron doesn’t fit. You can also use it for minor wrinkles on your blouse when you’re in a hurry. Photo: Courtesy of ghd

                           (Neat huh? Would have never even thought about it!)

#8

Vinegar
Considered a natural bleach and powerful cleanser, vinegar (just a dab) can reduce the blueness of bruise. This kitchen staple can also be used in your bubble bath to help prevent yeast infections. Tip: Try apple-cider vinegar for a less pungent smell. Photo: Jupiter Images

(My sister's friend moved into an apartment, & it had a certain smell to it. So she scrubbed everything down with vinegar & it actually helped. It's strong though!)

#9



Cornstarch
Detangle a knot in seconds: Rub cornstarch into stubborn knots on shoelaces, string, chain necklaces for greater grip and control. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

                  (My hair gets real knotty (hehe) & I'm definetly going to try this!)

#10



Oatmeal
Whether you have dry, itchy winter skin or discomfort from summer mosquito bites, mixing cooking oats into your bath will provide instant relief. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

                 (It would be weird to take a bath in oatmeal, but if it's worth it... maybe) 



                             Anyways, what do you think of these tips!? Will you try any?

Stumbling&Stumbling&Stumbling

My friend showed my this website: http://www.stumbleupon.com/

Here, you create an account, mark everything that interests you, then press stumble.

And according to your interests, you will *stumble upon* things, links, pictures, videos, etc. that match your interests.

It's an addicting website. Yesterday I wouldn't stop stumbling until 3am.

Your thinking: Grrreeeaattt! Other things on the computer besides Blogspot, Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter, Myspace (if anyone still has one), etc., to get addicted to!

But it is pretty fun, & interesting to see what you can find.

It's also great for blogging. You can post up interesting things you find.

Anyways, if you find yourself bored start stumbling! (:

dictionary.com definition:

Stumble: to discover or meet with accidentally or unexpectedly (usually followed by on, upon,  or across)

Prepare to see posts of what I stumble upon. Well, happy Saturday everyone! (:
