Things I Can't Live Without This Week.

Today was the last day of school, which means although it isn't technically an anniversary for this blog, it is still a very special day! It was the last day of school last year that I decided it was time for a fresh start and made my first post on this blog.

In honor of that, I thought I'd have today's post be an homage to how it all started.

Maybelline Shine Sensational Lip Gloss
I bought one of these lip glosses a few weeks ago and lately I've been really loving it. They aren't too sticky, and have just enough shine and shimmer. The one I bought is Freshly Sliced (not the one that is pictured). It's a pretty coral-pink that smells like grapefruit. I'm a total sucker for citrus scents, so of course I'm in love.

School being out!
Is this much of a shock? It was on my list last year too. By the end of the year, I'm just so incredibly ready for it to end. I can finally feel at ease now that I've turned in and presented all my projects and taken all my finals.

Claire's Matte Topcoat
One of things I asked for at Christmas time was Essie's Matte About You topcoat. When Santa didn't bring it I wasn't too disappointed. Since then I've thought about the topcoat some, but I never wanted to spend the money for it. So, as you can imagine I was very excited to find a cheap alternative. I was wandering around the mall and happened into Claire's, where they just so happened to have the perfect matte topcoat. It was only $4 and it turns out, it works great too. I like wearing my nail polish normally for a few days and then adding the topcoat to it once I start to get bored of the color. It changes up the polish and saves me a bit of time.

Organization
I consider myself a pretty organized person, so I'm organized most of the time. But I do go on major organization kicks from time to time where I want everything to be perfect. It just so happens that one of those is occurring at the moment. As I mentioned a few posts back, I'm planning to rearrange my room. In preparation I've been trying to start organizing things a little better and trying to de-clutter. Yesterday I devoted some time to organizing jewelry. Tomorrow I'm going to organize all of my sewing stuff because it has become quite the mess!

Room Tours
I love seeing other people's rooms. It's a great way to get ideas, and it can also be the perfect inspiration to stay organized. I like looking at peoples homes and closets in magazines (Ashley Tisdale's was in this months issue of InStyle and Jessica Stam's was in Elle.) But, most of all I love watching people give tours of their rooms on youtube.

What do you love this week?
