 Hey guys so hopefully if all goes well by the time you see this I will already be on a trip and this is something that I've been planning for quite a while. At least I think for the last four months I've had my airline tickets for a good amount of time and I'm taking a flight. So I'm going to show you just a couple of things. This is sort of like a vlog style. I'm going to show you just a couple of things as I go along and and then by the time this gets published I'm thinking you I will already be in the middle of my trip. So it won't be such a surprise but you know I'm preparing and I'm bringing and I hope everything works well. My dad at the time of this filming is still in the rehabilitation center although he is doing better. He's getting stronger each day and that is so so good. So I'm like thinking Jesus do I want to bring a wig with me? What do you think? Do you think I should bring a wig? I have any feeling this is going to be an action packed trip but I also think I want to bring one of my wigs. So I'm thinking I'm going to bring this wig just in case just for those times when you know I just might need a little hair boost. So this is my Raquel Welch flirt alert and I was debating whether to bring editor's pick. Editor's pick is that shaded cappuccino shade. I'm going to show you side by side for those of you that are curious. This is my editor's pick. This is my editor's pick. This is shaded cappuccino so it's slightly darker. Can you see the difference? It's slightly darker. It's got maybe more ashy tones or maybe cooler tones but so I was debating whether I was going to bring flirt alert or if I was going to bring editor's pick but I think I am going to bring one and then I'll bring I'm probably going to be bringing a couple of my hair accessories so at this point in time you've seen this on me with the trendles that I really like so when I put my hair up I'm going to I'm going to grab this one and I'm going to grab my other bun because I really like this is what I think I'm going to be bringing so I'm going to bring this one and this one just in case I want to put my hair up. I don't want to carry too much. I don't want to pack too much but that's what I'm going to bring and then this little braid this braid I got actually from Uniwigs and again you know they the colors are just like really amazing for me so I'm going to bring this braid because I'm thinking I can use it as a headband I can use it as an accessory I don't know I may also have to bring a winter hat because it's maybe even snow where I'm going and I really don't want to see that I really want to see warmth so yeah I'm going through all my makeup thinking trying to think of what I'm going to bring but I'll tell you my Balzano bag came in just in time because it's going to go on the plane with me so welcome to my travel vlog and I'm going to be piecing and adding things as I go forward and um and you'll see where I end up. Stay tuned for the rest. Leaving Chicago and heading to my next destination I had plenty of legroom on my flight and look at this cool display I saw at the airport terminal I couldn't believe it I've never seen a cosmetic display like this in an airport terminal. Oh my gosh where the heck am I? Wow what are you? Where am I? I fell away Rowie. We're in Nashville, Tennessee. We're in Nashville baby and I think I'm going to take these brits over to see Kid Rock. I can convince them to go we're gonna go see Kid Rock. He's got and they say that he actually shows up at this new place so it's called Big Rock. Kid Rock has a big rock. It's a bar, it's a honky tonk. I love it. So we're gonna have fun. Are you sure we're in Nashville? Definitely. Monica we're not in Boston. Are you sure? We've been in Boston but we're in Nashville now. Perhaps we're in New Hampshire. No I don't think so. Nashville. Yeah I left New Hampshire really early this morning and I know I've been teasing you guys in my videos and all that stuff that was going on a trip while I went on a trip I went to Chicago there was snow on the ground and I knew I was going to come to Nashville and I knew I was going to meet up with these two lovely ladies and we don't know who else is going to join us. We're actually going to go find the bus and we're going to go downtown on the bus so I'm hoping the bus is nice although my Uber driver said it was a pretty cool bus so I think the bus will be fine and I think we're gonna, I want to go find Kid Rock. Gail and Bella never heard of him. Who's this guy you're picking up there Gail? It's little Jimmy. It's little Jimmy Dickens. Jimmy Dickens. I never heard of Jimmy Dickens. He's the same height as Bella. Little Bella and Jimmy Dickens. We're walking the streets of Nashville. I think we hit Kid Rocks right at the right time because this place was crazy. It's so much fun. We loved it. Loved it. Shopping. Guys, I'm drinking five gala macaritas at TGI and there's a waiter. How's it going? So we've been drinking. We've been shopping. We've been talking. What else have we been doing? Shopping. More shopping. More shopping and I tell you I'm so happy I came to Nashville to meet up with these two ladies and now I know we've had two trips together but Bella, I'm going to come back and say hello. We're awesome guys. Awesome. We went over to the Gaylord Upreeland Resort and Convention Center after we explored the mall. The mall was really cool. We really enjoyed it. I went in. I just bought a Kate's Bade iPhone cover which I really liked and then we walked to the Gaylord Resort and Convention Center. They were just getting ready for their country Christmas that they have every year and so they started to decorate things up and it was beautiful. Hey guys. Good morning. Happy Friday. This has been an amazing, amazing trip so far. It really has. It's been, it's been a blast. You saw the clip of arriving and you know seeing Bella and Gail and we, on our first night here we went downtown to Broadway to the Hunky Tonk area. It was so much fun and yesterday we, we did, we did this big mall and walked all around and I got a beautiful Kate's Bade. If you can see this Kate's Bade cell phone holder. I love it. It's beautiful. Beautiful. So today we're going to have a new person join us. One of the, one of our, I'll keep the surprise until she pops in the video and yeah so the weekend is going to be awesome and I just, I got word last night that my, my hair's a mess. I got word last night that my dad's being released and I'm struggling with feeling terribly guilty being away from home when that happens but I know that between my husband and my son my sister did everything that she could to prepare for today. I think it'll be okay till I get home. So anyways just want to just pop in and say howdy howdy. Oh and I'm going to share with you because I meant to do this before I left as well. I'm going to share with you all the stuff I brought with me just in case you're curious what did I actually bring with me for skincare and stuff like that. Obviously a girl can't go anywhere without her brushes you know so and some lippies. You know I like this. This is the essence one but this I prefer but this right up by my eyes is what works the best for me and this is for my color correction so I got those and I brought both of these why I don't know but I brought both of these but the one that I'm really liking is the cakeless concealer. That's the one I'm really liking but I brought both of them. Actually I brought this one too. I didn't do that one so and I've been using this. This is the Color Science Total Eye. This was actually sent to me and I am really really liking it a lot. So my my makeup is my double wear. I have my sunblock as my Shashado and my Color Science powder that I brought. I don't have it here in the bathroom and my blush is my Avon. I brought that. That's just my tried and true. I really like that. I haven't used this once. I don't know why I brought it. I have not used it once. I do like this. I've been using this is the Kevin Acron. This was also one of the ones that was sent to me. This is their sculpting. I've been using it as a contour. It's very light but it just kind of gives me enough little shadow which I really like. Three mascaras. I mean two mascaras. My it cosmetics blow out and what a mess in my essence and then my Essence Volume Booster. Yes I love this. I've been wearing this every single day. My Alto Beauty Cream Eyeshadow and Liner and this is the Lila color. I can't remember the name of it but it is um it's real. I really like it and my favorite favorite favorite one and only Elf Roller's Primer. That's all I brought. A bunch of eyeliner sticks. Most of them are. This one's from Sephora. Most of them are Urban Decay and then I brought actually this and I have it in the bedroom. Oh here it is. These are the two products I brought for my eyebrows. Yeah love them both. So my sticks, my lip liners, my little two lip glosses that I brought. Hard candy. I tell you guys I like my hard candy a lot. Of course Buxom this one's almost gone. I ran out of my light Russian Buxom and this is I think Champagne. Pink champagne. So I like that and my lip scrub from Tarte. I bought this. I like this. I just wish it was in a tube and then I have this. This is from Lizzy Art. This was given to me from Mommy and Fat and Glam and then just a selection of all my lippies that I've been using. Some I use all the time. Some I have just used periodically but I really love it and this perfume is the only perfume I brought. I really like this a lot. It's from Lancome. I think you've been using this for quite a while. I have a big bottle at home and then hair care, skincare, trying to finish up some stuff that I've been using. I brought this along. Holy mackerel. This is the AHHBHA. This is the Exfoliating Cleanser from Gin & Bar. This stuff rocks. I really like it. My Cera V decanted, my carrot oil, my CBD and this sample of and I know it has alcohol but this is the sample of Setting Spray Amusing and just a bunch of different things from my hair, different oils that I've been trying to use and then my Mac Palette and my Wet n Wild. This is the Creme Boilé. I like it for all over and then this is my C Palette. This C Palette, it's a mess but in here, oh my god, is it a mess. In here is everything of Lizzy Art except for some Ulta Tubes and some kidney grace. Yeah, well worn and what do I have down here? My eye care, a whole bag of eye care that I've been trying to use. So little remnants and over here is my toothbrush and stuff but this is basically my side of the vanity. Oh yeah, I'm taking advantage of every space. When you're sharing accommodations with three women, it can get pretty crowded actually for when Monta arrives today. We are on Friday afternoon and we've been while I filmed a video. I think I'm the only one that's filmed a video. Gail filmed a video but I filmed a video and I actually interviewed this chick over here. It's hiding in the corner. My little lovely friend Bella and we are waiting the arrival of someone from down south who has been I think freaking out over the thought of having cold weather. You know, I guess when you live in Miami, Florida, I'm used to 200 degree temperatures and humidity and a lot of putting a winter coat on and boots is probably traumatic and we have plenty of socks and mittens and gloves and hats for her. So yeah, she can, she'll be fine when she gets here, right? This is really a pretty cool Airbnb. We have this living room as you can see this little fireplace behind me. It's really cool. I really like it a lot and it is off the beaten track though so you know that's something to consider but it's neat, clean, pretty awesome. It looks like they have some of their guests leave a little note on this guitar. Having fun. I don't know if there's any room for us to do anything but they've included a pen here. Hi. Are you relieved? Look who's here. I am. My seat and my face is cold. Oh but everything else is warm. Monica! You're capturing the moment. You look gorgeous. She bet we can't see it so dark. Here we go. The four amigos. Where we going ladies? Downtown Nashville. We're looking for Roy. We're looking for a boy? For Roy. For Roy. Oh for Roy. Roy. As in Rogers? Yeah Roy Rogers. Roy is going to say that. Who knows where we'll end up. And so we ventured on our journey and waited for the bus and waited and waited and waited. We're on the city bus. My partner in front. The bus took us to the downtown bus station where we walked a few blocks down to Broadway and we enjoyed the sights along the way. We saw so many interesting things and so many interesting people. We had total blast. We decided to go to this Johnny Cash kitchen, enjoy the entertainment and we had our dinner there. It was really quite fun. The band was excellent. Good morning guys. Good morning guys. We are heading out. Bella and I are going shopping for the day. We're going to hit up Alta Sephora and to Jim Axe. Maybe Morphe. Maybe a bunch of different stores. Macy's. I think there's a bit of Minwells. So yeah so we're going out to explore. You can hear her laughing in the background. And Gail and Marta went their way. They're going out to, I think they're going to go see a park and a museum and just do all that kind of stuff. So yeah I'm heading shopping and hey guys it's Sunday. I had to really stop and think about what day it was today because I kind of totally lost track of days since I've been in Nashville but I've been having a fabulous time. We've been pretty active. Yesterday was a beauty day because Bella and I went shopping and we went all over the place. Sephora, Alta, you know I took her to the Cheesecake Factory for lunch. It was like so much fun. We just we just enjoyed our full day and we went on a hunt for a palette. We went all over the place trying to find the a new palette and that we're looking for and couldn't find it. I finally ordered mine so it'll be delivered sometime when I get home but it was just really great. So today Sunday I have no idea what we're going to do. We kind of like it's kind of been a low-key morning. Marta wants to shoot a video so go down a little bit. I got to put some clothes on. I'm in my jammies. Marta wants to shoot a video so I'm going to go down and do a video on her for her channel and then we're going to make a decision. Are we going out? Where are we going? This is hamburger place called the pharmacy I think it is. Anyways it's supposed to be pretty famous. I supposed to have really really good food so I think that's going to be on the agenda for our lunch dinner combo. What we've been doing at least what I've been doing since I've been here is we've been eating sort of like once a day out somewhere and you know this morning I brought oatmeal from home so I have like an oatmeal package so breakfast and coffee in the morning and you know snacks if you need it and then we go out somewhere like yesterday Bella and I went to the Cheesecake Factory with a big big lunch but that was it that was it for our dinner so by the time we got back here it was late we were pooped and we just snacked out we just I had some apple I think we had some I had an awesome dip oh my gosh so I had some gluten-free crackers in this dip it was really delicious and that was pretty well it so most of most of everything has been overrides all over the place which is fine tomorrow it's gonna be super super cool I cannot wait to share tomorrow with you guys but tomorrow will be super cool but so we'll see what the rest of you brings. You guys have got to see Bella's hair. Bella come show your new duke. Show them your new duke. Look how beautiful it is. She's absolutely beautiful. Look at that sexy duke she has on and guess you told me how to do it. Oh my camera fell from excitement and behind me say hi Marta. Hi Marta.
