Target Run and Random Chat (69)

Ahhhhhhh it’s already Sunday, nuuuuuuuuuuuuuh
It’s raining a lot more today than yesterday so I’ve given up for now and have retreated inside after going on a coffee & Target run earlier this morning. I also beat Kirby 64 today! WHOOT! Now I’m gonna start on re-beating Yoshi’s Story for the 10th time

Yesterday I made the mistake of of going shopping after hating everything in my closet.
It went something like this:

Tried on about 10 outfits but wasn’t happy with any of them (for the 90 degree weather )
Bummed out, I went to get some froyo and walk around
It started raining on us so I agreed walking around in the mall would be a superb idea!
Walked into Zara “JUST TO LOOK” (fail idea again, lol)
Of course walked out with Zara purchases in hand! FAIL $ SAVING, HAHAHA!

I should know better than to window shop after feeling like I hate everything in my closet! hahahahaa!
BUT. I do give myself some credit. I tried on about 20 items and loved all of them but only bought 2 pieces! TWO PIECES THAT MAKE AN OUTFIT TOO! So at least I stuck with my mantra of ONLY buying outfits

The flip-flops are from Target’s $1.00 4th of July bin! I got a pair for my friend too~ I always send her the July 4th Target goods!! Last year they had those “BORN IN THE USA” socks I sent her! She wore them to work and said all her coworkers found them so cute & funny

Target run!
Sneaker socks and insoles for my cowboy boots. I really want to wear my boots more but they need insoles. They have really solid soles and hurt to walk in after a few hours. I tend to buy insoles for all my shoes though, my feet are pussies I guess! Also I walk more than ever before. I love to just walk for hours~~

Also saw this “Blister Defense” stuff! Hummmmmm, I’m skeptical but I’m willing to try it! Gonna test it out tomorrow by wearing some really stiff plastic high heels I have that almost always cause me blisters, ha!

Then I bought the new Nivea Good-Bye Cellulite Serum. I was there to buy some more of my NIVEA My Silhouette! Firming Gel. I did a short review of it last year and still love it! But it takes 4 weeks where as this serum claims results in 1 week. OK, I said! LET’S TRY IT OUT! It of course recommends using it with the counterpart Good-Bye Cellulite Gel but I’m going to stick with using the My Silhouette because I know I like it. The serum doesn’t smell as lovely as the firming gel, it smells like hair gel IMO, so I’ll apply the serum at night (to my thigh’s saddlebags if you must know, ) and the My Silhouette in the mornings. I’ll let ya know if I think it ramps up the “firming” process

By the way, I don’t know WHY NIVEA still has the “NEW” label on the My Silhouette Gel…. marketing ploy? Because it’s been out for more than a year. Just saying~~~~~~~~~~

Buzz Spunky Overalls (45)

First, contacts fail
I got my MAX Pure Brown circle lenses in from Pinky Paradise Saturday. Went to try them out today only to discover the right lens has a defect!

In the iris/color portion of the lens there’s some overlapping of the plastic causing a very tiny bump. Well for anyone that wears contacts you know the smallest spec feels like a huge boulder in your eye.

This felt more like a knife scraping and stabbing my eye! UGH! I couldn’t even keep it in long enough to take a photo of my eyes with both of them in. I put my left lens in my right eye and it felt fine, so, yea, the contact’s defective.

I’M SO BUMMED OUT! I contacted Pinky Paradise about it. I really hope they’ll just replace my -9.00 lens for free. Defected contacts happen. I’ve gotten some even in my clear daily wears, so I hope they understand.

It’s a shame too because I LOVED how the color looks with my natural eye color! I bought these wanting to have a more natural look to choose from.

~~Anyway. So we’ll see what they say~~~~
UPDATE 11:47 PM:
They just emailed me and said they’ll send a replacement lens, yay!! Though they also request I ship them back the bad lenses? Kinda strange… Not sure how I’ll go about doing that, LOL
Further update:
They said they’ll pay for return shipping! WHOOT!!

COLU Overalls and KING Blue Lenses (76)

This weekend has been amazing for package receiving!!!! Thursday and Friday I receive the Cocolulu overalls and belt and the KING Blue circle lenses I ordered! Today I received my Buzz Spunky overalls and the third pair of circle lenses I ordered (MAX pure brown.)

First the CO&LU overalls!
I ordered these using Shopping Mall Japan. I wish I had realized you had to request shipping after your order arrives to them . Could have had these sooner. I ordered my Buzz Spunky overalls through a different service but I’ll talk about that later. These are pink corduroy overalls and nice and warm!

I forgot to take pics of my belt and little shopping bag
I’ll do that for next post!
