Atlantic City

Moved into a new apartment at a new university... this is my excuse for my lack of blogging. :( But I'm all moved in and pretty much settled in, so back to my blogging. :)

2 weeks ago we went to Atlantic City and I thought I'd share some photos.

Here's our second day in Atlantic City after we spent the day at the beach. We were heading out to a new restaurant that the Hilton built called "Nick's Burger Bar", and also the casino floor to play our favorite slot machine, Monopoly. John and I aren't huge gamblers, but we do like to play sometimes. The whole reason we venture off to Atlantic City so much is because that's the first vacation we ever went on when we first started dating. We went there with John's parents, and I loved it ever since. It's just that it brings back so many good memories of times we went down when we were younger and now I think we're just hooked... but anyway... lol

So ya, this is us heading out. I'm wearing a Wet Seal Dress with a Charlotte Russe belt.

This is at Ceasers when we were shopping at the ship mall. It's my favorite because it's at the crosswalk between the mall and the casino and you can look out at the boardwalk.

Photobucket

My shopping trip. Not a big one, but I did buy some things. (Later in the post)

Photobucket

This is Nick's Burger Bar inside the Hilton casino and hotel.

Photobucket

My huge mudslide for $9.00 which I couldn't drink much of. The bartender didn't do a good job making this.

Photobucket

This is our 3rd day here and we were heading home. I'm so mad because of the damn dust in front of my face, of course of all the places it lands... grrr! lol I'm wearing a dress from Mandee and a belt from Rainbow.

Photobucket


Here's some things I bought. The first isn't something I bought from Atlantic City, it's from Macy's but I love it so much I want to share, plus it was only $4.99 and can't decide what to wear with it, so I need some opinions.

Photobucket

Also these are from JCPenney 2 for $16.00. They're long sleeve basic v-neck shirts.

Photobucket

This is one of Juicy Couture's newest charm, which is my absolute FAVORITE charm now... it's a cupcake in an OVEN!! :D AHHHH! $58

This is just a night shirt I seen in Victoria Secrets in Atlantic City, and John really enjoyed it too. I'm using it here at our new apartment to wear to sleep, it's so cute.

Photobucket

I also got a coupon for Bath and Body Works for any free sized travel item, and I picked up the Sweet Pea body spray. I was between the lotion and spray and thought I had enough lotion, come to find out I have none. Oh well. lol

Photobucket

Picked up shorts from Guess

BLOG SALE!!!

Heyyyy!! This is the first time I'll be holding a blog sale, and I'm super excited to pass on my treasures to you guys!! These items have been sitting in my room, and they need a good home! :) Most of the items I'm selling today are going to be big ticket items, and some makeup items that are cheaper... I'm hoping to do another blog sale with more cheaper items... soon!

So this is the details:



Shipping will be $7.00 for the purses
$5.00 for the watch
$4.00 for everything else.
But if you want more than 1 item I will be happy to combine shipping! If you're willing to buy 2 or more of the eyeshadows shipping will be flat rate of $4.00.

If you are interested in any of the items I have up for sale please email me at: cruizinchik1992@msn.com
Tell me the item(s) you're interested in and I will hold the item for 24 hours until you pay.
If you do not pay within 24 hours the item will be back up for grabs!!
The only method of payment I'm taking is paypal, and I will give you my paypal address once you want to pay.

Note that I am willing to negotiate with the prices as I need to get rid of the items ASAP. I'm leaving for college soon and need some extra cash to save up. :)

First is my brand new Guess purse that I have never used, still has the original tag on it. I'm asking $75 for it.

Next up is another Guess purse that is used. I've used this for only a few months. There is no visible scratching or markings on the outside of the purse and all rhinestones are intact(as pictured). Inside of the purse are a few markings that I believe could get out with soap and water.
I'm asking $30.

Next is the Chi 44 Iron Guard. Only used this a few times. 90% or more is left in the bottle.
Asking $10

Photobucket

Next is a Guess watch only worn for a month. I was wearing this because my Movado had broken, and was waiting for a repair but bought a new one anyway.. so this was worn for seriously less than a month or so. I absolutely love this watch but I have to let it go, I'm not going to wear it and I hate to see it just sitting there not put to good use. The battery is still working and everything. The only sign of wear you'll see on this watch is on the back of the one heart(charm). But barely visible.
I'm asking $80 for it.

Next up are Bare Minerals eyeshadows. I believe I only used these just a few times. There's more than 95% product left.
I'm asking $8.00 each.

People are too sweet...

When John and I first got engaged, when we first came home from vacation to my parents house we were congratulated by my mom with a hug & tears, and when we walked into the house she had gifts for us... it was the cutest thing ever. She had a banner that said Congratulations, pins, card, & a garter...

And to top it off a girl I work with, for just a short period of time now, (I trained her) bought John and I a gift and I plan on taking it to John and I's new apartment. She was too cute!! I don't know why she bought us anything, she said that she was just so happy for me. How sweet is that?!

It amazes me how thoughtful and surprising people can be. I couldn't stop smiling. I'm so thankful to have wonderful people to surround me. :)


Onto the craziness.. our engagement party is growing and growing.. in the amount of people that is.. We originally wanted just family and close friends, well it's not turning out that way.. We're up to 60 people, just for an engagement party. I'm so excited to spend it with all the people I care and love. :) One week away, can't wait!!
