Hi Lovelies.
These are one of my favorite brands to stock in my pantry! popchips make so many different flavors now and I'm so in love with this newest one hint of olive oil veggie chips!
popchips are not baked & not fried, they just add a little heat & pressure and POP thats what makes it!
They are also: Certified Gluten-free, Vegan.
This is easily their BEST flavor, love the fresh veggies/pizza taste. It's heaven! The veggies they are are so so good, I can't get enough. Best Chips EVER!

all the flavour.
where's the fat?
delicately delightful olive oil plus sea salt.

never fried. never baked.
our veggie chips are not your garden-variety snack. we start with a blend of veggie, including kale, beet, tomato and pumpkin, add a little heat and pressure, and pop!
it's a chip. then we season it to perfection for a snack so delicious, you won't even notice it's hot half the fat of fried chips.

real ingredients
no added preservatives
no artificial flavours or synthetic colours
no cholesterol
no saturated fat
no trans fat
vegan
gluten free

hint of olive oil 
veggie
a hint of olive oil? are we losing our minds? yeah we’re losing it —because olive oil on a veggie chip with salt is insanely awesome. it’s like dipping bread in an italian restaurant—savory and satisfying—but with more crunch. and it’s a double-dipping healthy snack with veggies and the good-for-you oil. so go ahead and dip into a bag today.

Hi Everyone!
Well today I thought I would do this TAG thats been going around!
Its called "Sweater Weather TAG!"
So here are the questions listed below & my answers to them! <3
Hope yo all enjoy!

The Questions!
1. Favorite candle scent?
2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?
3. What's the best fall memory you have?
4. Which makeup trend do you prefer: dark lips or winged eyeliner? 
5. Best fragrance for fall?
6. Favorite Thanksgiving food?
7. What is autumn weather like where you live?
8. Most worn sweater?
9. Must-have nail polish this fall?
10. Football games or jumping in leaf piles?
11. Skinny jeans or leggings?
12. Combat boots or Uggs?
13. Is pumpkin spice worth the hype?
14. Favorite fall TV show?
15. What song really gets you into the fall spirit?

1. I have LOVED this scent for years it's Glade 2 IN 1 Creamy Custard and Apple Cinnamon, it's just perfection, sweet, warm and a little spicy!

2. I'm a tea person, but love my hot chocolate during the Fall and Winter months and sometimes add in the occasional Pumpkin Spice Latte, Gingerbread Latte or Peppermint Latte.

3. Too many Fall/Winter memories, as these are my favorite two seasons! But I loved waking up in the morning for school and seeing the beautiful colors of the leaves for Fall.

4. Dark Lips or Winged Eyeliner, this would be hard because I love to rock both, I used to love winged eyeliner more but now I'm into the darker lips.

5. For Fall a fragrance I always love is Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy. (It's my true favorite for Fall/Winter) others include, Victoria's Secret Night, and the new favorite this year Paris Hilton With Love.

6. Pumpkin Pie! For sure, I bake a lot of those during the Fall Season.. too good!

7. Leaves change color, colder, gets rainy and windy, can get really stormy during some times.

8. This would easily be a cowl neck sweater in a GORGEOUS chocolate brown color that I got years ago from Victoria's Secret. So comfy, I love it!

9. From a couple of years it's been O.P.I You Only Live Twice it's from the Skyfall Collection a beautiful high-shimmer magenta. Goes great with tan skin.

10. Ha. How about Hockey games? That's my favorite! I don't watch Football or jump in leaves.

11. Leggings around the house 24/7 year round but Skinny Jeans for out! Love them!

12. I guess Combat Boots but I like mid-boots that have a nice texture or studded design to them.

13. I guess in a way, it's nice to go to your local Starbucks store on a cold day and that drink does a great job at warming you up (also really love the VIA ones) but I really do love to make my own at home, healthier and more fun!

14. Fall means lots of my favorite TV shows are back mainly Hawaii Five-0 and Chicago Fire. Others include Two and a Half Men, 2 Broke Girls, Modern Family, The Middle, The Millers and Dancing with the Stars.

15. I don't really have a Fall song, can't think of any, but I do have favorite movies and a TV show for Halloween/Fall.. The Munsters, The Addams Family, Scream films, Scary Movie films, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Charlie Brown Halloween films, Chucky films, The Mask, Monster House, Hotel Transylvania.

Check out the NEW fragrance B. by BALENCIAGA.
Love the bottle crackle texture makes for a original look and the frosted color is captivating!
Stunning, Sophisticated, and Feminine.

It describes itself as (from Sephora.com):
A green woody fragrance, B. represents a woman unveiling her most essential self. The more she reveals, the more intriguing she becomes. The composition opens with notes of lily of the valley bell and edamame accord. As the fragrance evolves, the iris note reveals a powdery essence before drying down to darker woody notes of cashmeran woods. 

The bottle is inspired by the marriage of old and new. Its frosted glass has a unique crackle texture, inspired by the marble tiling of Balenciaga’s original location. The shape commands attention with a six-sided architectural design, while the unique exposed arch of the cap pays homage to the arches found in Balenciaga fashion and accessories. 

Notes: 
Lily of the Valley Bell, Violet Green Leaves Accord, Green Edamame Accord, Iris Root, Cedarwood Heart, Ambrette Seeds, Cashmeran Wood. 
Style: 
Sophisticated. Sensual. Feminine.


Be sure to check out this fragrance at your local Beauty Counter.
Be on the lookout soon for more "I Love It Perfume" posts on my favorite fragrances! :)
