Border Dress - H&M

Shoes - Airwalk
Necklace - REVROSSA CLARITY
Socks - F21
Bag - Marc by Marc Jacobs

I think Veronica mentioned something about the maxi dress being paired with sneakers & a military jacket which I thought “Oh! That would be a cute laid back weekend look!” It was a little chilly out Saturday. I ran a bunch of errands including getting that issue of Sweet from the market. For once I got to the market early so it was too crowded, haha *was nice.*

Wore some new little floral sneaker socks from Forever 21 and also put on some chopped up Dolly Wink No.01 lashes as accents. It was the first time I had used them in this way and I was really happy with the subtle results.

Shu Uemura eyeshadow. I’ve been really obsessed with this combination lately; mint & gold. I tried it with a pink last week which looked nice too but I just keep going back to mint. Guess it feels extra spring to me. I’ve also had red nails for 2+ weeks. WAS REALLY OBSESSED WITH IT. But the upkeep is especially difficult with red. So Monday I switch it out finally. Now wearing Brisk Blue lol.

I’ve been using Brilliant Brunette and I’m nearly done with my first bottles of the shampoo & conditioner. I took this photo so I could compare it to the one I took before I started using it. My hair looks the same LOL. No change really. Almost looks more blonde at times now LOL. But I’ll wait and take another when I fully complete the bottles. Just saying *disappointed so far LOL*

OK, so, this week has really sucked thus far. I had some mild food poisoning since Sunday night so I worked at home Monday. Then today the trains were running crazy late. After it finally showed & I got on it randomly stops in the middle of nowhere. It was stopped for what seemed FOREVER. I was just repeating Judas and trying to catch up on comment replies so I didn’t notice for a while. The conductor comes through and says a sewer main busted and flooded the tracks so we couldn’t move forward. They reversed all the way to the previous stop which is a dual stop for both commuter trains and the metro/subway (yeah it’s complicated and we have multiple modes of train transportation.) Anyway LONG 2 HOUR STORY SHORT I finally got back home and worked from home again. Which is frustrating because VPN is so slow to work on. But I did myself a favor yesterday and copied off the files I needed to work offline. Soooo glad I did that. Ah but my digestive tract is still all asdfjkl; so fml & this week

Current Can’t Get Enough

Wednesday, Apr. 13, 2011 | 63 Comments

I wrote this a few weeks ago but never got around to posting it. But it’s still really relevant so here it is!! Things I’m loving/obsessed with lately~~~

BROWN EYELINER

I have 2 brown eyeliners. Dolly Wink’s and a cream liner from my Shu Uemura palette. I go through phases of using brown eyeliner sometimes. I wear it on days I’m not wearing lashes so usually to work/weekdays. I like how bold my eyelashes look drenched in rich black fiber mascara against a lighter eyeliner color.


BEIGE BLUSH

I need to find a really lively beige blush. Less orange more peach. I have a beige it’s a bit orange though from Bihada Ichizoku. I also have a more peach beige in a Shu Uemura palette. But I really need something in between…. but I shouldn’t be buying more makeup either since I have so much already.


RETRO COLLAR CLOTHING

Duuur this one is so huge, I love lace collars on shirts and dresses. A bit difficult to find in the US but slowly I’m seeing things. I want to buy more of it Everything from lace, to ribbons, to peter pan collars. Basically anything & everything from Dazzlin this season. I saw a beige, lace, polka dot, peter pan collar dress at F21 last week. It was pretty cute, but had cap-sleeves (no me gusta) and looked ultra shotty cheap *cries*


NUDE NAIL POLISH

I usually find nude colors boring but for spring I’m just really into the flesh-toned, opaque nail looks. Ranging in hues from pink, white, to browns.


ROSE SCENT

I used to hate rose scented things when I was younger because they reminded me if my Mom. But in recent years I’ve started to like if more. Now I LOVE it. I want any fragrance with rose notes, I drink rose-infused teas, I love rose flavored stuff like drinks and candy drops! ROSE ROSE ROSE! Funnily enough I dislike most “floral” scents in general. Only a select few flowers do I enjoy as fragrance . Above is everything from rose tea, rose scented candle (which is now burned completely,) Anna Sui rose-scented makeup, Bison rose bath salts, rose fragrance from Victoria’s Secret, Bvlgari, Pink-G lotion.


VITAMIN GUM

I loooove vitamins and there are all these vitamin infused gums coming out right now!!!!!!!!!
