Two Things to look out for.....

Hey guys just thought I'd take the time to share beauty collections that are out and available for purchase!  The first of course is a OPI Nail polish collection.

The OPI Skyfall collection also known as the 007 Bond... James Bond Collection.


 
 
 
If you are looking for a polish collection to bring your fall into bloom and get you through the upcoming winter months this is it!  The colors are rich, deep, and what I call popping!  As usual I encourage everyone to purchase OPI polish from JcPenny as they usually sell them buy one get one half off and if you are like me then you are always looking for ways to save.
 
 
Next on the beauty roster is the MAC Marilyn Monroe Collection!

Oh Miss Monroe....if your looking for some spicy seductive reds to round out your holiday makeup then this is definitely the collection for you!  Now the collection has been on the scene for about a month so you make have to do a little searching to find certain things but if your truly dedicated to makeup then this is definitely worth your search!
 
Good Luck!

Little Project #1: Saving the Date

Okay I could babble on and on about what has been keeping me away from posting but I'd rather share with you all a little piece of the project that has really taken over my life....my wedding.  From this project I think it would be great to share a DIY project I took on....our Save the Dates!

Yes I am pretty excited about how things turned out and I will be dropping these in the mail tomorrow yay!  We have got about 7 months before the "Big Day" and I plan to share more of our "Big Day"


The finished product (disregard the black-outs, I have to respect the privacy of the recipients):

Postmarked and ready to ship!!! (Different people will receive different packaging, chosen at random)

 

Card Options 1-3

Mini Magnets Options 1&2




As you can see my indecisiveness lead to a bunch of options! But hey the way I see it is that makes for a surprise in everyone's package. Overall, I had a great time putting together our Save the Dates....now about the Wedding Invitations...I guess you will just have to stay tuned.  If you have any questions on this process or the supplies I used feel free to ask below!

Until next time...

Oh how we love those changes....

Hello everyone!  I know this post is long overdue! But I just wanted to take the time to let you all know about some of the changes that would be occurring here on the All Relevant Things site. 

First, I am moving from a general fashion and beauty blog to more of a personal style/haircare/lifestyle blog. 

What that means:  Basically you will be only seeing "fashion" posts as it relates to my personal style and whats trending in my life as opposed to what is happening in the rest of the world.

Next, I am going to be featuring more lifestyle pieces.

What that means:  As you may or may not know I am in the process of planning the biggest party of my life (my wedding).  So I will be doing some posts surrounding my journey as I plan and recaps of those events as they come.  This also means you will start to see more posts on DIY projects I have taken on as well as new recipes I have been trying.

Lastly,  the "Look" of the blog. As you can tell the blog is looking different these days...this was mostly for me...I needed to see something new...I wanted something that felt more "personal"...the changes are happening slowly but eventually you will see a completely new look for "All Relevant Things".

Overall, I just want to continue providing relevant information and I honestly believe these changes are going to be for the better. 

I want to thank everyone for their support and I hope you all enjoy the new changes.....
