I love me some Elf, but not the kind you are thinking.

This time, I mean Elf, as in ELF.

Eyes.Lips.Face.

I love my makeup and this makeup is good quality AND inexpensive. 

Super double win!

I'm hoping the Elves will see how good I've been and report to Santa that I could use some ELF!

I'll have to start with my basics:

Brushes and foundation.

There's a cute little set for $10 at the Weis near me and I've been eyeing it.

This cleansing set and these cover-ups are literally perfect. 

I swear nothing does a better job on my dark circles.

Hello, my name is Diana and I'm an eye shadow addict. 

I can't have enough of it and I never will have enough of it.

If I'm not wearing lip-gloss or chap-stick, I wont lie, I can't function. 

If I feel like my lips are dry, I can't do anything but focus on how it feels. It's ridiculous.

Oh, and by the way, my name is still Diana and I am also a nail polish addict.

 You can't go wrong with a nail polish set. Ever. 

When I can't choose what I want, I get gift sets. 

They last me SO long and have everything I need!

Do you like ELF? Is there another brand you like more?

The Differences between Princesses.

Ever since I was little, I always dreamed of a princess-y fairy tale wedding.

In a little survey I did for a question I was asked (more on that later!) a common theme was they started out planning a fairy tale themed wedding. There are different kinds of fairy tales though, especially in Disney, and so many different themes that can be carried out. Fairy tale isn't just a one-size-fits-all term anymore.

I'm here to break it on down for you with some themes, some ideas, and some super Disney inspiration!

The Little Mermaid.

Theme: Nautical, Beach

Colors: Lots of blues, pops of oranges and coral

Food: Seafood- or would that be frowned upon? Sorry, Ariel!

Sleeping Beauty.

Theme: Dreamland

Colors: Pinks and Blues.

Dessert: Donut & Cupcake bar!

Beauty and the Beast.

Theme: French

Colors: Gold, dark blue, red

Food: French inspired elegant dishes.

Cinderella.

Theme: Classic Princess

Colors: Glass, if that counts. Light blues, whites, silvers.

Desserts: White chocolate, classy desserts.

Aladdin.

Mulan.

Colors: Reds, Blacks, Pinks

"Let them eat cake"... or something better.

Today, I was really contemplating the desserts I would like at our wedding, 

I hinted at it in the video I did, but I don't really feel like it touched enough on what I meant. 

I don't like cake. What kind of American doesn't like cake, right? 

Well, a lot of them. Which poses a problem for weddings. I feel like cake is expected anymore, but how difficult is it to seriously have it. How do you decide on flavors when your mom can't have chocolate when the only kind you really eat is chocolate? What about when multiple people in your family are super picky like mine are? It's impossible to cater to everyone and I don't want to do that, honestly. 

I also don't want to end up having to have multiple cakes. 

I want something I like, that I can have multiple different flavors, many different kinds, cheaply. 

That's why I have multiple ideas for multiple buffets. 

Candy Buffet:

So, you get a ton of different candies, lay 'em out, help yourselves. 

Then, take whats left at the end of the night.

That'll make for a sweet little ride to the airport! 

Ice Cream Buffet:

Ok, maybe I'm going a little too SweetFrog-ish here, but I love me some ice-cream. 

I love the countless abilities to choose what you want. 

Even the pickiest person will enjoy this.

Cookie Buffet:

"C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me!"

Yes, I did that, sorry not sorry.

Just Add Milk. 

Donut Buffet:

Ok, this goes along the same lines of the Cookie Bar. 

Except Coffee. And Tea. 

Pie Buffet:

Pies are still cheaper than one huge cake and there is a ton of variety. 

There are so many ways you can go with this. Fruit, Mousse, Cream. Perfect any way it is!

Is anyone else as hungry as I am right now?

Yeah, thought so.
