CVS and Kohls Haul

I purchased these products on Thursday. Sorry that I was able to blog about them earlier because they all were sales. If you're still interested in these check out your local CVS or Kohls to see if the sale is still going on.

First I went to CVS and looked to see what they have. When I noticed they had v05 shampoos and conditioners for .77cents, I had to pick some up. I've only tried the strawberries and cream moisturizing conditioner so i dont know how these other shampoos and conditioners will work but I figured I could just add them to my routine to co-wash or when I run out of "the good stuff" lol.

V05 Herbal escapes Moisturizing Conditioner in free me freesia
v05 Herbal escapes clarifying shampoo in kiwi lime squeeze
v05 Moisture Milks Moisturizing Shampoo in Strawberries & Cream.

I also picked up these stridex wipes because they were buy one get one free. I used to use these last year and they really helped get rid of my acne and now that I stopped using them (and maybe because of stress) it has returned. So I wanted to go back to what worked. I haven't tried the sensitive one but im sure it will be great as well.

I picked up the Stridex Maximum soft touch wipes with 2% salicylic acid and Stridex Sensitive with Aloe.

My favorite purchase was from Kohls. I picked out these Lauren Conrad sunglasses. All of her glasses retail for $30 but when I went they all were on sale for $10. I wish I would've got all of them lol. I love Lauren Conrad's style and everything she has in Kohls is so freaking cute.

MTV 2011 VMA Fashion Highlights

I love watching award shows, not only to see some of my favorite artists perform but to see what different musicians and celebrities wear. The 2011 MTV Video Music Awards were pretty good this year, musically and fashion-wise.



Justin Bieber arrived wearing red skinny jeans, a basic black tee, a black blazer, and leopard sneakers. He accessorized with gold chains, readers, and a Yves Saint Laurent pin. Some people may not like this look but I actually like it. It kind of reminds me of Kanye's style. Also peep the snake in his hand lol.

Demi Lovato showed up looking amazing. She wore a silver sequined Mandalay dress and silver Christian Louboutin heels. I love that she is comfortable in showing off her curves.

Zoe Saldana wore a Barbar Bui dress with these GORGEOUS Balenciaga shoes. I love love love those shoes. I cant wait to see her new movie, Colombiana.

Photobucket

Kelly Rowland showed some skin with a Falguni & Shane fringe dress with Christian Louboutins.

Newlywed, Kim Kardashian (or Humphries) wore this body-hugging Kaufman Franco dress that showed off her figure.

I actually like this Roberto Cavalli long sleeve dress Miley Cyrus wore to the show. Plus her make up looks amazing.

Photobucket

Taylor Lautner, or Jacob, looked great. He kept it really basic: a blazer, a white tee, and jeans. Some guys can pull this look off and he is one of them.

Photobucket

Adele looked pretty in this black dress with her retro style hair. I love it

Vinny Guadagnino (from Jersey Shore) looked dapper in this suit. A big change from what he usually wears on tv.

And the woman who stole the show was Mrs. Knowles-Carter. Beyonce wore this GORGEOUS, drapey, Orange Lanvin dress. Before I saw the pictures of her holding her stomach, I thought wow beyonce usually doesnt wear dresses like that. Then when I realized she was pregnant it made sense. This looks gorgeous on her.

I also love this Dolce & Gabbana Pant Suit She wore during her "Love On Top" performance.

There were some fashion misses but we'll just ignore those lol. Overall, this award show was pretty good. I loved Kanye and Jay-z' performance and Bruno Mars was great also.


What were your favorite performances or fashion highlights from the 2011 VMAs?
