Things I Learned From Roald Dahl


Here we go again, I'm ranting. But, I hope this can help someone. With Lent, I have really tried to think of something to give up. First I thought, soda.. (I already gave that up, so that would be cheating) Then, I thought, social media. (That would just make my blog and work suffer) So, no. I honestly, had nothing to give up. I have been going through a lot with my work and personal life and the one person I always come home to is my mom. She is miss perfect apparently because even if I had the most rough day and just want to vent-- all she does is say 'Emily, why all the negativity? If its negative, I don't want to hear about it' At the time... I might be mad. But, she's right. Why let people bother me? If they are bothering me and I go home to cry/complain about it they won. Why let this person or thing keep ruining my day? The more you think about how bad your day was, or how awful a person was to you, it just makes you more upset. The more you talk about how AWFUL that person is, that makes you just as bad.

So, on my binging on Pinterest, I saw this quote from the Twits-- I LOVED ROALD DAHL GROWING UP-- and thought, that actually is so right. Who would have thought that a book I read at what, age 8, would be such an impact on my life 14 years later. But, this is so true.



"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, that face gets uglier and uglier until it gets so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it.
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely."

Seriously though... You can be the most beautiful person in this world, but, if you have a bad personality at the end of the day, you wont have anything. None will want to be around you. Especially someone who is rotten and negative all of the time. You can be just a regular girl and be positive and funny and likable and people will want to be around you. Why let someone/something ruin that for you? People will see a bad persons true colors. You don't need to talk about a person for them to see it. What Sally says about Harry says more about Sally than Harry. This is something I need to work on. Not letting things getting me down and to get the positivity back. Everyone has feelings. Good person or not. So why hurt someone? Who wants to do this with me? I think it could be fun! Honestly, do not let anyone shadow your happiness. With the internet and social media now a days, it is so easy. Be positive. In every aspect of your life. 

Sorry again, about my rantz but, technically, per Roald Dahl, this is a beauty post. The secret to good skin and nails, don't take biotin, HAVE GOOD THOUGHTS :) Hehehe, but really, I will be back with my usual posts so soon :) I have tons and tons of amazing things coming this way, so keep your eyes open! I am so excited to share everything with all of you!

2015 GRAMMYS RECAP


THE GRRAAAAMMMMYYYYYS. The long awaited Grammys. This is the only awards show I am actually ever about. I feel like its the one time for the celebs to actually be a little on the wild side and be themselves. Please tell me you haven't forgotten about Lady Gagas meat dress? She's nuts, I think. Or what about Kanye interrupting Taylor Swift? Im sure you didn't forget that one! The Grammys makes everyyyyyone talk, every. single. year. First, can we plssss talk about Kanye West getting up and interrupting Beck. I hate him so much. LOL. Sorry Kanye fans. I love Beyonce more than life but, reeeeally. GO AWAY. I loved Katy Perrys performance. Her white cape dress was STUNNING.

Enough of my rambles-- on to fashion, hehe.
I have to start out with the girl I love to hate, T-Swift. As much as I try, I CAN NOT HATE HER. She was my best dressed for the entire night. Her dress was breathtaking with those shoes and her hair and makeup ughhhh. She was perfection.

January Faveez


So, the first month of 2015 is gone! Crazy! Although, I usually think months go by so fast and weirdly enough I felt like January dragged. But, I am not complaining.. I am so excited for February and the rest of the upcoming months! *ahem, summer, cough* So go on January, byeeee Felecia! February is my bday month and I cannot wait. This month I actually didn't try a lot of new products. But, I did fall in love with products I kinda forgot about. (Don't you love it when that happens?) My wallet is pretty happy, hehe. I have kind of a lot so, lesssssss get into it.
