It's The End Of The Month And The Beginning Of Summer

Hey people!
First off, I want to thank everyone who's taken a look at my blog, I really appreciate it.
And secondly, I want to let you know that I know I haven't been posting very much. I'd like to do alot more, but I've been super busy and as much as I love this blog, I still have a life off-line and would like to keep it that way. Hopefully you can understand. I also am waiting on a camera, since I don't currently have one and it's difficult to do posts without one. While I can't promise anything, I will try my best to do more here now that school's out. I appreciate every one of your pageviews, and am happy. I enjoy doing this as well. I never was interested in the most views or followers, rather a place where I could talk and hopefully meet others with the same interests. So thanks for sticking by,
Stephanie.

July Julep Boxes

Better late than never, right? The end of school is killing me,and I feel drained when I come home, but there's only one week left. Anyways, here are the Julep Maven July Boxes. I like these way more than June, and May's too. The glitter's look freakin' fantastic, especially the one in the It Girl Box. You also get a free polish celebrating either Canada Day or the Fourth Of July. The only issue I have with this is I way prefer America The Beautiful, which I think they did way better. And it has star glitter. Oh, I forgot, these also have a lip vernis that is colour-coordinated to a polish. I love that look but when you see the swatches of the lip color, they're really sheer. So, in reality, your lips and nails won't be matchy -matchy. But I have to say, I'm glad we're aware of that before hand, just so we won't be expecting something just like the Butter London colours with the matching lippies. Also, the names aren't coordinating, which is a little weird. Just to let you know, this is obviously picture-heavy.


And here is the breakdown of what's in each box:

EDIT: They changed the box shot's to the new month's boxes/


And I thought I'd include the swatches, since the above pictures don't do those glitter polishes any justice:

These two are O Canada and America The Beautiful. Which one you get depends on where you live, but you can get them as add-ons. The rest are in the same order as the box shots.









And here are the lippies. I didn't know if I'd include them since this mouth grosses me out for some reason (am I the only one?), but I figured I'd show you how sheer these really are:

Maybe Rae Jepsen.

Hey guys! I know I mostly do artists a lot less known that this, but in honour of the Much Music Video Awards, I thought I'd choose a new song by the winner of the most awards. Maybe Rae Jepson. So y'all are probably either think that I'm putting the wrong first name, Maybe instead of Carly. Or maybe you thought her parents are ultra hipster-hippies. Well her name is Carly, but as LMFAO pointed out, she prefers to be called Maybe. Just listen to her song, the one that got her all those awards. It's called CALL ME MAYBE. So yeah, that's what I'm calling her. Anyways, enough with the joking. I just found that hilarious last night, did any of you watch the MMVAs last night and crack up? But this week's song of the week is her new song,
Carly Rae Jepson- Curiosity
And trust me, I half don't think you should listen to it. This chick makes crazy catchy songs; it will be in your head for days. The only way to get it out will be to get Call Me Maybe stuck in your head, which also isn't hard. Have a great week, and I highly recommend watching the MMVA reruns if you haven't seen them already.

Let It Go, And Why I Should Rename This Blog Something To Do With Procrastination

I'm sorry! I know today isn't Monday, but can we pretend it is? We had another PD Day (I know! It's great! And worrisome for parents...) and I basically sunbathed with blue all day long :P. Anyways I'm a bog procrastinator, so yeah, if any of my friends are reading this they are probally nodding. Sorry again!
Anyways, time for some of the weeek! I absolutely love this song and have been replaying it since I heard it, but according to their Vevo it only has a little over 7 thousand views. I was all like 'NOOOOO!' because it's just that great of a song. So y'all are most likely like 'what song, tell us already!'. So I will, it's

Let It Go- Dragonette

I love how amazing-tastically fant-abulous this song is. And it sheds a light on animal testing and how wrong it is in such a great way (don't worry, the video isn't, like, a bunch of bunnies dying while people stick lipstick in their eyes) and the message of the lyrics is also so inspiring. So go ahead and listen. They need more views!!!

We're back!

That's right; Really Quite Cute Fridays are back with a vengeance. Okay, no vengeance, but your get the point. Right?
Anyways, I have an obsession with Ellen. She is just a wonderful, zany, beautiful person that makes you smile. I thought I'd show you the cutest video of two little boy; Atticus and Rainer, who are presidential experts. They also have uber-cool Hipster-Celebrity names, which make me feel sad that my name is Stephanie. I'm thinking I should just start calling myself Tallulah or Bonquiqui or Green Flower. Anyways, these kids are adorable. I mean, I don't like staying near kids because they slober and seem contagious and weird; but in small doses they are ad-or-ab-le! I mean, don't even get me started one the matching ties and khakis. And their mom should be happy that I haven't stolen that little one yet. Look at him; he's adorable!
Unfortunately, I could get the video onto this post, but I have a link right here. Or if you're scared of my link (he doesn't bite! Often...), you can just do a Youtube Search for it and watch it that way. Anyways; here it is:

PS. I love sideburns too.

PPS. And obvious nicknames.

PPPS. I'm just going to stop, because trust me, I could keep going on.

PPPS. Really. I could. So just stop ready this and watch the video!

What I Need!

I have recently become transfixed with ballet. Or should I say, more transfixed. I suddenly feel the need for a huge pancake tutu, like this one. I'd get out the pointe shoes collecting dust in my closet and start to do ballet again and twirl around my kitchen. Yes, I am crazy. But you have to admit, tutus are gangsta'
Okay, maybe I'm getting a little carried away. But they are awesome. Awesome enough to twirl around your kitchen in. Besides the fact that it kills you feet, legs back and anywhere else it can, I love dance. And tutus. Feel free to buy me one of the below.

Corset and Tutu Set I love this ones antique look. It makes me feel like some fancy person whose great-great-great grandmother was a world famous Russian Ballet Dancer, except this wasn't my great x3 grannies, and she wasn't a ballet dancer... or Russian. It's for sale on Etsy here.

Womens Pink Tutu Shabby Chic Cocktail Length Perfect for Weddings Size Large Look how huge this is! Totally fits in with my plans of marrying a Gypsy just so I can wear a dress with enough fabric to cover all of Africa. Also for sale on Etsy here.
Ooh! This one! This one! Black swan... plus it's thinning. But most importantly, glitter! Get it here.
And while your at it, new pointe shoes would be appreciated! And look, I've spared you the trouble of
having to find them, they're already here. Thanks!
Custom Pointe Shoes
Just to make sure you know, I'm kidding. You don't have to buy me anything, taking the time to visit and read is enough.

Happy Monday! (Just Kidding)

I got the prividge of going to a Girls' Career Conference this weekend at the U of T Missisaugua Campus, and while I was there, I got the honor of meeting Kellylee Evans, the singer of this week's song. She held a presentation and sang a couple songs for us, right before her plane for Paris. It was so amazing that she stopped by to talk to us and give us such motivational words. While she talked, she also sang a couple songs, including this one:

Kellylee Evans - Good Girl

She is such an inspirational person, and does not get nearly as much attention as she deserves for a voice like hers. Thanks for reading. Till I post again...
