Products used:
- Essence Color & Go in Choose Me!
- Essence Color & Go in Space Queen
- ELF Polish in Blush

Products used:
- Wet n' Wild Wild Shine in Eggplant Frost
- L.A. Colors Color Craze in Grapevine

Shopping Trip & Haul!

Hey girls!
Sorry for the lack of posts lately! This weekend I took a road trip with my friends to another city to go shopping and have a end of summer weekend of fun with my friends! If you live in Canada, I'm sure you would have heard of the West Edmonton Mall. It is a huge mall that has a amusment park, water park, submarine rides, ice palaces, and a sea animal show! Its a crazy big mall with over 300 stores in it as well! With that said, you could suspect that I was able to pick up alot of great things while I was there!
I had a great weekend with my friends and thought I would post some pics on here as kind of a vlog-type post. The pictures are not the greatest because they were taken on my phone, but I hope you enjoy!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I also filmed a haul on all the thing that I picked up this weekend. To see what I got watch the video below!
 

 
 
I hope you enjoyed this haul and all the pictures from this past weekend. Please don't forget to like, subscribe, and comment on Youtube! Also, feel free to leave me requests!!!
 
Have a great day!

Whats In My Bag??

Hey Girls!
I hope lately that you all have been liking all my youtube videos combined into my posts, because today I have another video and post for you!
I havent posted a "Whats in my Bag" post in a while now, so I wanted to do a updated post for you girls!


This picture here is from my previous post, but I am still using the same purse alot of the time so I am doing this post on this purse again!
I really am in love with this Chanel purse! It is so cute and simple and isnt like alot of the other Chanel purses that you see alot of the time.
The only down side to using this purse is that I find I cant carry alot of heavy things, or I feel that the straps might break. But other than that I love it!

Now to see what I carry in my purse! To find out, please watch my newest youtube video!

I would also LOVE if you could "Like" this video and subscribe to my channel bellavitamakeupxo! It would mean so much to me! Hope you enjoyed this post! What are some things that you carry in your purse?

Katy Perry Inspired Makeup! ♡

Hey Girls!
Its been a while since I did an inspired makeup look, so today I have a look inspired by Katy Perry. One the September issue of Elle magazine, Katy has a very dark smokey eye. I really liked how she wore it so I tired it out on myself. It was super easy and I only had to use a few colors from my Naked Palette!
What do you think of it?




For this look I also filmed another YouTube video on it that I will link below. I would love if you would watch it! All the products I used for this look is also included in the video.
Also if you girls have a youtube account I would love if you would subscribe to me! :)

I hope you liked this look! Tell me what you think of it in the comments!

TAG! MY Dirty Little Secrets!

Hey Girls!

Lately a lot of bloggers have been going the Dirty Little Secrets tag post.  So today I thought, why not I do this tag too. So let’s get to the questions!

1. What TV/Film show do you secretly watch?

In my house its not a secret that I love to watch the game type show Big Brother and I also love watching any TLC show, especially Toddlers and Tiaras. But secretly I watch Hannah Montana. Miley is funny in the show and it is one of the last good Disney shows made!

2. What song do you secretly know all the words to?

What makes you beautiful by One Direction, We are young by Fun, Tik Tok by Ke$ha, and Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepson!


3. Who is the one "non-famous" person you'd secretly like to meet?

(Blogger/YouTuber related)

For bloggers, I would love to meet Chloe (www.chloesway.com), Hannah (www.life-sparkles.blogspot.com), Alona (http://www.fashionfreshman.com/) and Jenn (imperfection-isbeauty.com)! For Youtube, I would love to meet Sydney (www.youtube.com/user/BeautyBoxBarbie) , Lauren (www.youtube.com/user/laurenbeautyy), Shannon (www.youtube.com/user/shaaanxo), and lastly Megan (www.youtube.com/user/ciaoobelllaxo). A lot I know! :)


4. What is your worst bad habit?

I would probably say picking/flaking  my mascara off my lashes at the end of the night before I wash off my makeup!  And also being lazy… 2 bad habbits!  

5. What is the most expensive thing you own? Do you regret buying it?

Hmmm, probably clothes! But  I definitely do not regret buying them.


6. What is your biggest pet peeve?

People who are always looking to start a fight with you or start drama, and people who try to sing along with a song but they don’t know all the words! haha.


7. What do you secretly like the smell of?

No one really knows this I think, but I love the smell of citrus things. I really like the smell of Mr. Clean cleaner. I also like the smell of self tanners or spray tans, its weird I know, but I like it. Haha!

8. What are you secretly lusting after?
At this moment I cant think of anything! But I'm sure if you ask me in like a hour I'll have a list of things! haha.


I tag:
Everyone who reads this! :)
Hope you liked it!

Pop of Color OOTN! ♡

Hello Loves!
The other day I realized that I have not done a outfit of the day/night in a long time! So today I have a outfit of the night post for you girls! The main focus of this outfit is the bright orange blazer. It it the pop of color that I added to this outfit. I got this blazer from H&M in Italy.



The rest of my outfit is not to fancy, just a white tank and black pencil skirt. The skirt is from the UK 2 LA collection from Urban Planet. For accessories I also kept it simple. I have my Chanel necklace, Louis Vuitton Charm bracelet, and White Charm bracelet that I got from a boutique in Venice Italy. My wedges add a nice simple touch to finish up the look. These wedges are by George.


I also uploaded a video for this OOTN to my YouTube channel! If you have a youtube account, please subscribe to me! :)


Hope you guys enjoyed!! :)
