Urban Outfitters December 24, 2008

I was just cruisin’ the Urban Outfitters site again and of course, another wishlist has emerged.  Here are some fun gifts, stocking stuffers, and cute items.

Doesn’t Snoopy play the Jaw Harp?  I looove Snoopy!

How about the sweet hamburger phone Juno brought back?

 

Speaking of bringing it back, I totally had skates just like these growing up.  Who needs Roller Blades anyway?!

 

I’ve been looking for a wide, brown, leather belt I can wear a bit higher on my waist.

 

Just some cute outerwear I’m digging.  Although I live in Miami, I’m always cold for some reason.

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty Palette December 23, 2008

Sephora has an amazing palatte just in time for the holidays and the make-up guru in you.  It’s called the Sephora Blockbuster Collector’s Palette 2008 Edition and it is priced at $48.00.  So if you’re looking for a last minute item that will make any girlie-girl squeal with delight, this is your item. 

It includes 84 eye shadows (powder and cream); 60 lip colors, 6 blushes and face powders, 1 eye liner, 1 lip liner, and 7 applicators and brushes.

Reunion Dress – The Chosen One December 12, 2008

So I went to my 10yr highschool reunion this past weekend.  I can’t believe it’s been 10yr’s already!  I was hoping more people would show up but it was fab none the less.  This was my final dress selection.  I got it from Anthropologie and I looked smashing, if I do say so myself…and  I do so I did!

Favorite Foundations December 11, 2008

I have two favorite foundations; one for daily use and one for special events or when I know I’m going to be filmed or photographed.  I’ve been using them both for some time now and they have yet to let me down.  So here they are:

For daily use, I love Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation Compact.  I just use a small amount of concealer on trouble spots and dust the foundation on with a big powder brush and ta-dah…set for the day! 

 

For a special occasion, or when I need a heavier and flawless coverage, I use Tigi Bed Head Dream Foundation.  My hair dresser and make-up artist uses it on me and it is perfect!  I use the application sponge that comes with the compact, use a little concealer if needed, then set with the Neutrogena Mineral Foundation.  I love it! 

Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller December 10, 2008

So I’ve been officially lured in by all of the print and tv ads for this product.  I haven’t been sleeping much and I’ve reached utter desperation in search of a product that will combat the poofy morning under eye situation I’ve got going on as of late.  I’m going to begin my testing phase and give you the scoop.  Here’s hoping…

Lovin’ the L.A.M.B. December 9, 2008

I was just perusing the L.A.M.B. collection on Nordstrom.com and I’m loving all kinds of pieces.  Oh, Gwen, what are you doing to me?!  There are of course some pieces only Gwen can pull off, but I think most are certainly wearable for a girl like me.  So here’s my pick of the litter…

Let’s start with some hot bags:

L.A.M.B. ‘Signature Ashton’ Handheld Shopper

 

L.A.M.B. ‘Music Hook’ Frame Satchel  

 

Love this skirt:

L.A.M.B. Pieced Skirt

 

And these “naughty secretary” pumps:

L.A.M.B. ‘Fen’ Pump

 

Fabulous Holiday Beauty Sale! December 2, 2008

One of my favorite beauty sites, www.beautyvice.com, is having a great sale on some of their top lines.  They already sell below retail (which is why I love them) but now they are offering and extra 15% off of brands like, Murad, Rene Furterer, and Natura Bisse.  I’ll be doing some holiday shopping for myself there, I’m sure.  Check it out and enjoy the savings.  I’ve got my eye on this little number to start with…
