Adela Told Me. . .

Hello again, Thank you for joining me today. I hope that you all had a great weekend. I decided it was time for me to play with my PB&J Palette from Too Faced. Hard to believe I've had this since May and am just now getting around to using it. Boy was I missing out! The shadows are BEAUTIFUL and I love the look I created. I plan on doing many more looks with this palette so if you're interested let me know and I'll post them as well. This is the look I am showing you today... It's very warm and the tones in these shadows really made my eyes pop!  These are the only shadows I am using. Surprisingly enough, I didn't feel the need to bring in any other shadows.  Starting with a primed lid, I applied "Spread the Love" all over the lid.  Using a fluffy brush and "Peanut Butter" I swept this color from my crease and brought it up towards my brow bone. I didn't want it to thouch the brow but I wanted a nice wash of this gorgeous shadow across th...

Hi everyone, This is our last post on the FOTS Series, can you believe it??  I have learned so much about myself during this series and I hope you have too. I realize that most of you have started following my blog during this series so I want to take this time to assure you that Faithful Friday's will not stop. Until a new series pops into my mind, I will continue to post about things that have been on my mind or things that I feel the urge to share with you all. Let's jump right in to today's fruit! Today we are talking about Self Control. The dictionary defines "Self Control" as- The ability to control oneself, in particular one's emotions and desires or the expression of them in one's behavior, especially in difficult situations. (Prepare yourselves for a blab-fest) I feel like this one is very helpful for me at the moment. Without getting into too much detail I will say that I have been forced into a situation and I am handling it ...

Hello again, Thank you all for joining me today. This post is going to be a bit different than the rest...I've decided to post a video showing you all of the items I am talking about today, rather than posting pictures of them. You can find the video in the Adela Told Me Blog Group on Facebook. I will link to the group below so you can join us, if you're not already. If you did watch the video then you are probably here to find links to the websites I mentioned. Maxi and Midi Skirts- Those were all purchased from Rue 21 (online) I will link to the website below: http://www.rue21.com/store/girls/skirts/_/N-95r For size reference, all of mine in a size Large and I am a size 10 in dresses. I have purchased shirts from them as well, those too are size Large or even XL if I want them a bit loose. I didn't include the shirts in this haul because I purchased them when I was on vacation and have already worn them all. One thing to keep in mind when shopping with them is ...

Hi everyone, I have been wearing makeup similar to this A LOT lately. I've really been enjoying the look a BB Cream gives my skin. That paired with a super easy eye look makes my life so much easier!  This is the finished look... If you'd like to know how I achieved this look then keep on scrollin' I prepped my skin with an eye cream and daily moisturizer. Then applied a layer of this elf Poreless primer. I bought this before I went on vacation and honestly I wasn't expecting much from it. I've tried several BB creams and I haven't liked any of them. This one is so good! It gives me a really good amount of coverage and feels really nice on my skin. I dab dots all around my face and then blend it in with a damp Real Techniques sponge. I still need concealer under my eyes and around my nose to help within my dark undereye circles and redness around my nose. I set my undereye concealer with elf HD setting powder. I set the rest of my face with NYX finishing powder ...
