The two pouches I keep my makeup in. The one on the left is my main hanging + travel pouch from Sephora. I keep this in my closet and switch out makeup into the pouch on the right. The right pouch is smaller and this has my current “daily makeup” in it. I switch out what’s in it regularly especially blushes and lip colors depending on my mood.



Just Purchased…

These 3 items I just bought to test out. It’s a sample pack from Benefit. Only $10 and includes small versions of Benefit’s “That Gal” primer, “The POREfessional PRO” balm, and their “Stay Don’t Stray” eye primer.

I’ve tried the eye primer already as a free sample. I like Urban Decay’s better still. I’m currently using the pore balm. Making sure it doesn’t break me out with daily use. So far seems OK, hard to tell. I’ll know when I’m done with the tube. Then I’ll try out “That Gal.” So far I’m not over impressed by either but I’ll give it time.

I Crave Delicate Gold Necklaces

Monday, June 13th, 2011 | 70 Comments

There was one other thing I bought this weekend!

A short, simple gold necklace + pendant!

Suddenly I really wanted one! I used to only like my long necklaces. Rosaries and such. Or something thick and flashy. Chunky chain links, etc. But lately I wanted something sweet that hit near my collarbone.

I wasn’t sure if it was just a passing fancy so I purchased the star this weekend.

All from style-arena.jp

Best thing about it? $1.50 from Forever21

I know it’ll tarnish soon, won’t last, etc, etc but I need to be sure I really did like the style before buying something pricier. I was thinking under $100 though. Something only gold dipped maybe. I was looking at those Dogeared necklaces at first. Lots of charms to choose from and I tried a few on last weekend.

Something from Jupiter would be a dream! It’s a brand Rinka has worked with for many years. They make simple, sweet pieces mostly. Very beautiful. Rinka has her own line for many seasons now.


Sehr Teuer, ja?! $$$$

But then today I found two gold charms from my childhood!
I’M SO HAPPY! I THOUGHT I LOST THEM!

I knew the chains were long gone. There were two necklaces my grandmother gave me when I was about 13. I was still very, very tom-boyish then and I really didn’t like the necklaces. The chains were extremely delicate and over time I knotted them and broke them. But I can’t believe I held onto the charms! One is a double heart. The other is a kitty.

Now I just need a short gold chain! I’m so happy I found these

Ah so yeah great Monday! I was really productive today, feels good. Though I’m exhausted. So I’ll end it here.

A little bonus shot from today. I wore these two lip glosses all day. Shu Uemura and Melliesh in Baby Doll. I never realized how well they compliment one another. They ended up together in my makeup pouch by coincidence.

I’m wearing Melliesh in Juicy Orange in the above sleepy Sunday pic actually~~ I like Melliesh lip glosses so much
