Happily Ever Johnson: Updates

I'm starting to get more and more excited as plans are coming together and we move closer to next year!! I still sit back and wonder how I'm doing all of this but its those SuperMom powers lol! Well we are officially booked for our destination wedding in Jamaica!! Our travel agent has been super helpful with this process and I have my aunt to thank for putting me in touch with her. I love the resort we chose and just excited. My mom has stepped in to help with the planning process and will ask those questions I don't think of lol! I think I have found my dress. The last time I went out, there was this one dress I tried on and literally everyone in the salon was coming by admiring and just loving the dress. I did feel a little something when I saw myself in the mirror and everyone just loved it. You won't see my dress until the big day cause my fiance does read my post lol. Here are some pictures from the last dress outing and I had a bit of an entourage that day lol but it was so much fun. I need to pick a dress soon cause I could go out and try them on everyday!







I have been getting a lot of questions about what I'm going to do with my hair for the wedding and I'm waiting on the dress first(guess that can be a post too lol). It depends on the dress what I'll do. So now we are getting the color scheme together, asking people to be in our wedding party, figuring out what the groomsmen and the groom are going to wear, start to look at bridesmaid dresses and so on. There is still a lot of planning with a destination wedding but it is not as much as if we were going to have it here. I'm just excited for things coming together. 

See you guys Thursday!!

HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY PREVIOUS POST ON MY WASH AND GO SERIES??

We're taking our engagement pics this weekend! So excited!!

Has anyone tried the Iced Coconut Milk Mocha Macchiato yet? Since I like the refresher with coconut milk, maybe I'll like this one? We'll see lol!

I think we found some hashtags for the wedding cause there are so many #HappilyEverJohnson pics, ours would get lost!

    I love all the dresses on you, especially the one with such dramatic backs - gorgeous in all angles! That's really great your family helping with the wedding.

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
