Tuesdays with Kerin: Post-Spring Break Blues & Giveaway

Hello World!

*SKIP TO THE BELOW IF ONLY HERE FOR THE GIVEAWAY*

Today was the official start of Spring, but Spring Break is over for me, and I'm having post-Spring Break blues. 

Yesterday I had to return school and work, and it was so hard. The day just seemed to never end... It felt like the longest Monday of my life. But alas, that is my reality once again, and I must get back adjusted to my regularly scheduled life. 

Big News: Kerin's Korner Update!!!

Hello World!

Today, I decided to make some changes to Kerin's Korner, specifically when and how I post. You may have noticed in the last 2 weeks I've missed some posts, and posts have been going up later and later. The truth is posting everyday is a lot of work. I thought I could do it, but I now know, I really can't - not if I want to continue to post good content. You may have noticed a decline in the quality of my posts, and that's because I've just been posting because I need to post something. And that's not what I want to do. I want to post good quality content. 

Tuesdays With Kerin: Downtown, Movies, and Giveaway Alert!

Hello World!

#downtownliving

This weekend (really starting Thursday), I took a break from my regularly scheduled life, and lived in Downtown Houston! It was great! My sister and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and Suites, and Thursday afternoon, we saw a special D23 screening of A Wrinkle in Time at the Hobby Center! I was very excited, because A Wrinkle in Time was my favorite book as a child! We then had lunch at this cool joint, Osso + Kristalla. If you're in Houston, you should check them out. Later we checked out the AMC theater downtown, formerly Sundance Cinemas. Friday was more exploring. We attempted to find shopping downtown, but were relatively unsuccessful, but we did find a Forever 21, and I was able to buy some new jeans.  Saturday was even more exploring! We caught the metro, and explored Discovery Green, the City Hall, and the Theater District! It was also a very hot day, so we did take a pit stop at Hard Rock Cafe for lunch! Sadly, Sunday was our day to check out, and return to reality. It has been a hard adjustment after such a great weekend, which is why I aim to make #downtownliving a reality in the near future!

Makeup Monday: Best of e.l.f.!

Hello World!

e.l.f. cosmetics is one of my favorite brands, because they make really good products and they are insanely affordable. I created this look using some of my favorite e.l.f. products.

If you're looking for some affordable makeup that works, I recommend checking out e.l.f. Here's a list of what I think are their best products, and what everyone should have in their makeup kits!
