Olympic Beauty, Drinks and Pinterest

I figured that I should include at least one Olympic related post in this week's posts of the week since it's almost ending and we have to wait 2 years before another one. I came across this Styleite Opening Ceremony close up to the outfits of each country. I. unfortunately, didn't get a chance to see the ceremonies since I don't have cable TV at home so this was really cool to see. It shows the outfits of the counties at the ceremonies. The vast differences between their outfits is amazing! If you missed it I would take a look.

Okay, next was more a tribute to the end of the summer. It's an article from Shape Magazine that lists recipes for "Summer Cocktails Under 200 Calories." So if you still want to have some drinks with friends but feel a little better about it, I guarantee this recipes will satisfy those cravings. They have Watermelon, Pina Coladas, Mojitos, and much, much more! They are all fairly easy to make and can be made in bulk if you are preparing for girls night!

Last but not least something to keep you occupied while on Pinterest. It's Racked's "50 Beauty Brands to Follow on Pinterest Right Now." They say that this list of 50 brands will keep you up to date with the new and up and coming trends within the beauty industry. I had so much fun looking at these brands! They have also made a list of the Top 40 Magazines and 50 Fashion Sites to Follow as well. If you are bored one day and need something to do plus you may learn one or two things on the way!
