New Video & Haul

I posted a new video yesterday! :D

I talk about something super exciting coming up!
My next video is going to be a HUGE haul!
I finally participated in Cyber Monday! I still have yet to go out on Black Friday...scares me a lot! Hahaha

Anyways! I'm excited to do it! Its going to be an unboxing/haul.
You have no idea how big its gonna be! I only bought stuff from one site.
Its all beauty related and from a very popular, very affordable brand! Yay!

I'm also working on some new product ideas to hopefully post in my Etsy shop before Christmas!
So check my shop for those!

Love ya! I'll post again tomorrow!

Night! <3

Home At Last!

Well, we actually got him before 9 pm. Haha

But anyways!

It was an alright time. Plenty of stress and fighting.
I'm happy to be home in my bed.
Though I am slightly frustrated.
Oh well..

I love Pinterest!
So much inspiration!
Yay!

Well, I'm sleepy, so good night!

I hope you all had a better day than me!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! :D

I am out of town at my step aunt's house. We got here last night. We're going to have about 15 people here today.

What is everyone else doing for Thanksgiving?

I was going to post a "Happy Thanksgiving" video on my channel yesterday, but I was so busy, I ran out of time. Probably won't be able to post another one until Monday. Sorry!

We're going to attempt to take family pictures today for a Christmas card. We will see if the weather cooperates.

I may make another post tonight when I get home.

Have a great Thanksgiving! <3

The Little Things!

Hey everybody!

So..last night I got a message from someone who I have not talked to in probably about a month. I was a little shocked.. Not gonna lie! Haha
This person and I weren't on the best of terms the last time we spoke... It made me sad.
Also, I haven't actually seen this person in about 11 months! That's a long time!
They don't know it yet....but I actually am excited to hear from them. Just not ready to show it yet. :]



Anyways!

Is anyone else frustrated beyond belief, right now?!
Purses..jewelry..painting....?? Why does everything have to get me down? I would like for my creativity to bust out already!!!!
Everything I make is so underwhelming.... :(
I need some serious soul-inspiration!

Help!

I'm not really sure what to do at this point... I need a computer like nobody's business!
Can't buy one without money! Sad!



I could have sworn that I had something with more substance to say in this post... Hmm...

Oh well!


I watched some inspiring love videos today. Some of those Boyfriend Tag videos are just adorable! I'm so totally jealous.... :(

Embarrassing...


Good night! <3 ya!

Daily Look Review! 11/20/12

I have noticed that my post about Daily Look gets the most views! So! I have decided to do more of them! I hope that's what you're looking for!

I am also thinking about doing reviews/thoughts on what's available on haute look and lookbook.

Sound good? Interesting?

Please leave me comments! :]

DAILY LOOK

Heart of Gold

I actually like today's first look!
For some reason I haven't been liking their outfits recently.

1. The rushed sleeve blazer is adorable! Both of the colors it comes in are cute! $39.95
2. I haven't got into the leggings trend yet, but plain black is always good. $19.95
3. I like having long shirts, so this asymmetrical shooting stars top doesn't do it for me. $26.95
4. I LOVE the locked down tote! So cute! And very trendy! Love my big purses! $49.95
5. The sailor strip infinity scarf is another love! I <3 scarves and anything nautical! $9.95
6. I like bold jewelry, but the money tree necklace isn't something I would wear. $14.95
7. Ooh! I love a fancy watch! This elegant wrap watch is definitely a keeper! $24.95
8. Lastly, I adore boots! These distressed buckle booties are adorable! Love! $44.95


Lady Bug

Today's second look is cute and festive, but I'm not into wearing fake leather...especially as a skirt.

1. Again, blazers are popular right now and the bright red is very holiday appropriate. $26.95
2. I don't like real or fake leather skirts... Sorry! Not cute to me. $19.95
3. Basic tees are definitely a must in any wardrobe. So easy to make into an outfit! $7.95
4. Is it just me, or a purses the best part of any outfit?! Looove this one! Yes please! $39.95
5. I'm not too sure what a gummy jewel necklace is... Sounds gross! Haha $14.95
6. Tights....never liked them a whole lot. Especially plain ones. Not sure... $9.95
7. This bowtie bracelet is adorable. I love stacking bracelets! $7.95
8. I won't lie...I have platform heels...but from weddings. Haha No thanks.. $34.95



Magic Eight

Look number three is probably an outfit that I would actually wear! Finally! Hahaha

1. Another blazer! White is classic and chic with the black pocket accents. $49.95
2. Skinny jeans are comfy and in black, the make your outfit more formal! $19.95
3. This ruffle and pleat top is cuuute and wearable! Yay! I want one... $19.95
4. The purse is pretty cute, but way too small for me! $29.95
5. It's leopard bow belt is super cute, but I'm not a belted shirt girl. $9.95
6. Ooh! Leather and metal bracelet! Yes! So cool! $9.95
7. Not a fan of the necklace...yet again... So sad. $26.95
8. I think I could handle these cutout wedges. Darn cute and not too high! $34.95


Hope you like it! <3

Power Outage!

My wifi hates me!
I just posted this, but it didn't upload or save it!
Awesome... Was kinda long...

Anyways!
Our power was out for a couple hours due to a wind storm!
We lit tons of candles and played some games.
Once the power came back on, Khloie (my dog) and I restarted our movie, Chicken Little!

Sorry for the slightly randomness of this post. Pretty much the most exciting thing that happened today.

Oh! My grandpa's twin is back to stay with him! I love having both of them around!


A little sadness.... I've been feeling pretty down about my products...
I'm new to sewing and making jewelry, so I feel like my stuff isn't quality enough for people to want to buy... Kind of depressing...

But I've been trying to dig deep inside and figure out what my calling is. I love so many art related subjects that its difficult for me to pick just one. But I did come up with a couple.
I know that painting relaxes me.
And I'm actually pretty good at it.
So I'm exploring ideas of paintings that I could possibly sell.
So there's that.
I love music.
Singing it.
Playing it on instruments.
I've been saving for a guitar and learning how to play them.
So there's a second.
I'm not called the crossover artist for nothing! Haha

My ultimate goal has always been to be a musician.
I've been feeling, lately, like that requires being able to play a guitar. Not sure why.
I know I'm a pretty decent singer. Learned that in choirs in high school.
I would love to be able to write my own songs. I've been working on lyrics very slowly.

But in the mean time, I believe I'm good enough at painting to make some money to hopefully support myself and buy equipment.
That is also why I started a YouTube channel.
Funds.
The economy is rough.
Every little bit helps.

Please follow my blog and subscribe to my youtube channel!
You may like it!
Well, anyways... Love ya guys!
Good night! <3

Happy Friday Evening!

So...maybe not so happy...haha

I'm not feeling too hot. :(

Or motivated/ positive.

Been getting a good amount of views on my What's In My Bag Tag video. Happy about that.

Not doin quite so well on my etsy views... Not sure what's going on there.

I realize hardly anyone ever reads my posts....but if you do read this and have any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

I think, after my daily dose of YouTube videos, it's time for some sleep.

Good night! Love ya! <3

New Videos!

So....I lied! Hahaha

I filmed FOUR new videos today! I currently only have two uploaded, but go check them out!

I uploaded a WalMart Haul and the I Heart Perfume tag!

Funny stuff is happening on my YouTube channel! :D

Love ya! I'll post more later! <3

Late Night Blog!

I watch A LOT of YouTube videos.

Why?

1. Cause I love them!
2. Helps me learn how to structure my own videos.

I spend quite a bit of time watching different YouTubers and I thought that I would share them with you! They're all pretty popular already, so you may have seen their videos or be subscribed to their channels! Oh well! Haha

New YouTube channel and Etsy store!

Hey everyone!

Sorry it's been so long, again!! I've been pretty busy stressing over my business and the upcoming holiday season.

But anyways!!
I opened up a YouTube account for my new channel! I am VERY excited about that! Only problem is that my iPad wont let me upload videos! So, I made my intro video and can't do anything with it! :(

Update!!
My video did post! So, I'm editing it today! Feel free to check it out!
I filmed it a few days ago with my iPad and it was just a practice run, but I ended up liking it enough to post it. I wasn't really dressed for a video and I had never done one before, but I thought it was a little funny. I was afraid to re-film it for fear of it being less entertaining! Anyone else ever feel like that?! Haha
Check out my channel! CrossOverArtist21

Also!
I am going to make another blog post today about all my new products in my Etsy store!
