Fall Indulgence- Moschino Belt :-)

I've had my eye on this belt for many years, but always managed to talk myself out of it. The problem is that after I would talk myself out of it, a few months later I would always talk myself back into why I had to have it. This has been a cycle for me concerning this belt for the past few years because I'm normally not one to spend this sum of money on a belt. I normally view belts as trendy accessories and as you know, I still prefer to spend sparingly on trends.

The reason I find that this belt is different is because although it's trendy; it's also pretty classic. I remember images of my mom from the 80s with fitted jeans and a Moschino belt (maybe subliminally that's why I could never get this belt out of my head). My mom actually ended up donating hers when she couldn't fit it anymore to the Salvation Army when I was in elementary school (which was a nice thing, but if only I knew then what I know now...urghh lol).

Well I decided to finally get this belt out of my head and into my hands over the weekend...











This belt is a great statement piece to a simple outfit. Can be worn around the waist or low on the hip (that reminds me, I have to take it to get a couple of extra holes placed on it so that I can wear it securely around my waist). The SA also told me that they were sold out for a while, but they are back in stock with a more durable leather. You can currently find a few on ebay, but why take the chance of not getting an authentic one for almost the same price as an authentic one, when you can get it directly from the boutique or the MoschinoBoutique online?


What's your Fall indulgence?

'Tis the Season- Sephora Gift Card Giveaway :-)

'Tis the season divas! The holidays are right around the corner and I'm feeling jolly! :-)



To enter:
1) Must subscribe to my blog here
2) Must follow me on BlogLovin' here
(the first 2 steps are super easy, all you need is an email address (don't worry, you won't get spammed :-)
3)Leave a comment below answering this question- If you only had 5 minutes to get ready and could only choose 3 cosmetic items before you run out of the door. What would they be?

* Winner will be chosen randomly
*Open Internationally

...And the Winner is... :-)

I love giving away fabulous prizes, but I absolutely HATE picking winners. Everyone did such a great job with their video entry that it was almost impossible to choose (I actually had to bring in the fabulous @AfricanExport to help me decide on a clear winner and even then it was still very close); but there is only one prize so there can only be one winner...and the winner of the RPGShow full lace wig is...


CONGRATULATIONS enibaby4!!!!

I guess that there was a little misunderstanding with the amount of looks I wanted in the video. I originally stated one divalicious look, but I guess with so much time allotted for more than one look, some took the opportunity to post multiple looks. Since there was a little confusion, I decided to allow the videos with multiple looks and base my decision on the most divalicious look out of the multiple looks posted in a video. For the winner (enibaby4), that was look #4- Night on the Town :-)

If you didn't win please don't be discouraged, I will be posting a new contest video for 3 packs of Janet Prestige Legacy Super French Remy hair hopefully by tomorrow, followed by a Virgin Indian hair giveaway hopefully by the end of the month :-)

*If the winner doesn't contact me within 5 days of this posting, the prize will go to the runner up (and she would have the same amount of time to contact me as well).
*Once prize is claimed, winner will not be eligible to win another hair giveaway hosted by me for one year (Give other Divas a Chance! lol :-)


And the winner of the fabulous Asos Clutch is...

CONGRATULATIONS Guessly!!!!  You also have 5 days to contact me, if not another winner will be chosen.

OOTD- Animal Magnetism :-)

So this Saturday hubby and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary of the day that he asked me to be his girlfriend(lol...I'm blushing right now thinking about that day :-). Back then I had such an hard exterior, I was even surprised that he even asked. Although I knew inside that I wanted to be his girlfriend, I still had to give him a hard time (it was my thing back then lol). He asked me on a bus ride to the mall not too far from our campus and I told him that I would think about it. I didn't answer him until 8 hrs later! He told me that he was nervous about my answer because he knew how hard I was.

A few years later, hubby (back then boyfriend) told me that if I would have said no, he would have been crushed, but still would have kept on asking. He said that he would have been the Urkel to my Laura and wear me down (lol). I am so glad that I decided to take a chance and let him chip away my hard exterior and see my vulnerability. It was and still is one of the best decisions that I've ever made, which is why we still celebrate it today :-)


Jeans- F21



Leopard Blazer- ZARA (also seen here)

Shoes- Fabio Rusconi, Clutch- Aldo


I hope you divas had a lovely weekend and an even better week ahead :-)

Beauty Tuesday- MAC Matchmaster SPF 15 Foundation Review :-)



Now that I've actually been using the 8.0 for about a month now. I think that I'm actually going to go and get a sample of 8.5 and see which one I prefer. If the SA was off the first time, I figure that it wouldn't hurt to try a shade darker and see how that one matches. If it doesn't work, no harm no fowl; I'll just keep using my 8.0.

Sometimes we have to take things into our own hands just to be absolutely sure :-).

Have you tried the MAC Matchmaster foundation? If so, what are your thoughts?
