A few of my favorite things...

A must pass on!  These are a few items purchased/received as of late that I simply adore and had to share!  These could be great Christmas gifts orrrrr you could pick them up for yourself.  Maybe play it safe and do both.  Give and receive...ha! {my lame attempt at greedy humor}.

So without further adieu, check em out below...

1.  Nikon CoolPix Camera   {produces deliciously, lovely photos. A useful yet practical camera, and the best part...it's on sale!}

Disclaimer: This pic was taken with my ole BBerry camera

2. Sephora Nail Polish- Shade "Mr. Right Now" Red  {I've gone and done it!  I've finally found the perfect shade of red. {Pat on back}. Though this little bottle is a bit pricey...I'm tellin ya its worth it!}

3. Another Sephora fave Mono Eyeshadow  {seeing a pattern here...I recently visited bought too many items at this fab store}  Don't worry, I've admitted this to hubby and have now put myself on wallet freeze mode.  I use this eyeshadow as a base coat from my lid all the way up to my brows.  Its a light, neutral, porcelain shade that will be a great backdrop for any lid/crease color you elect for yourself. 


4.  Last Sephora plug!  Express Cleansing Wipes.  If you are like me and sometimes hate washing your face at night, then this is your answer to clean skin.  Just keep them on your bedside table and you can wipe away your day's makeup with these wipes.  They really clean and leave your skin feeling smooth.  Good idea to keep a package in your handbag for those evenings when you're leaving work and heading for work after hours/dinner dates/the like...you can simply wipe off your day makeup with these wipes and freshen up makeup for your night look.

5.  Kerastase Vita-Ciment Topseal.  This leave-in, heat activated reconstructor milk does wonders for your locks!  Sold at most beauty supply stores, most hair salons, and I believe Target carries this.  I got mine from my salon, Soda, in Roswell.  You just use a small amount {about a dime size if your hair is medium length} and apply to damp hair before you blow dry and flat iron. Silky smooooth!

6. A fall/winter necessity for those cold mornings...a clear glass coffee mug!  Mine below was given to me by my friend, Sue Ellen.  They have cute little hand painted snowmen...to die for!  Great for hot chocolate too!  I've seen the glasses themselves at multiple places...thrift stores, Dollar General, Target, Walmart.  Get yourself all "Pinterest-i-fied" and crafty and hand paint your own! 

7. Last but certainly not least.  The ever trusty, affordable {heck, let's just say it...cheap!} leggings and tights from Forever 21.  Let's face it ladies, leggings and tights are a must in your wardrobe these days. Why spend $20 at a department store for one pair when you can bop on in to your nearest Forever 21 and buy many many pairs!  Black, brown, orange, red, tan, you name it, they got your color!

Pass em on : )
