Up close of the 100 eyeshadow Palette:

To get a better feel of the palette, I swatched random colors:

Shimmering Facial Whip and Matte Lipcolor in Tea Rose

All Over Color Stick:

So I was impressed with everything except the Shimmering Facial Whip was kind of runny?? Other than that, no complaints :)

MacBook Photos with Jack :)

Ahhh so flattering lol

Have any of you tried this eyeshadow palette?

Have a great monday Lovelies :)

Haul time! and random bits

Hey Honeybees! So I don't know about you girls but when I get bored I have a tendency to shop : / ... A tendency I'm trying to break! In any case the damage is done lol So I thought I'd show ya'll what I got.
I went to Walgreens, TJ Maxx, and Sally's Beauty Supply.

TJ Maxx:

I'm a sucker for cardigans and at 12 dollars I couldn't pass this up!

 I LOVE this dress ahh! It doesn't look like anything special on the hanger but when I put it on,  it flatters my curvy hips, flatters my skintone ( I'm neutral warm skintone) Which sidenote: I find it odd that with my really pale skintone I've got warm tones! I always thought that pale skin was cool toned... shows how much I know haha.

Another dress that doesn't look like anything special until you put it on. Super flattering to my fellow hourglass figured girls ;)

The closest thing i've found to peplum. Hmmph but still cute nonetheless 

Walgreens:

Wet n Wild Bronzer: Reserve your Cabana (Great Bronzer for us pale girls)

Maybelline Colorsensational: Pink me up (warm pink)

Revlon Moondrops: Lilac Champagne (Hot pink with a hint of purple,perfect bright for spring)

Revlon Just Bitten: Crave (Magenta Pink)

Maybelline limited edition

Wet n Wild Trio: Walking on eggshells 

So I got home only to find I already had walking on eggshells and it was a rude awakening. I've got more makeup than I need! Ahhh that money could seriously be saved up for my trip to Russia or my trip to Vegas next year for my birthday! Shame on me!! Tis the curse of a shopoholic lol.

Sallys:

Femme Couture in Raisin Berry and Parisian Pink

Palladio in Rose Berry and Cosmopolitan

 M&M cookie from Great American Cookies! Yummm

Me, sitting in bed... eating a cookie... when I should be exercising LOL 

Hope you lovelies have a good rest of the week!

Simple OOTD

How was your St. Pattrick's Day lovelies?? I'll put up a seperate post on that as soon as I get all the photos uploaded :) Anyway, just a simple OOTD. I always remember my grandmother saying "A woman gets up in the morning, makes herself look beautiful & presentable to the world" and to be honest Bumming in our pajamas growing up was unheard of.So I always hear my grandmothers voice inside my head to give me that little push to not just lounge around in yoga pants on my days off... thank  Mamaw ;) lol

My beautiful mamaw when she was my age 

Shirt: Solitare from TJ Maxx

Jeans: Levi

Bag: Vera Wang at Kohls

Earrings&Ring: Body Central

On my Nails: Rimmels' Posh Pink

On my lips: MAC Girl About Town

I love how easy over the shoulder bags are!!

Natural Lighting Eeeek lol

Some of you have been asking where Jack was and why he wasn't making a regular appearance well here he is lol. I was trying to convine him to look at the camera lol.

His manly warrior side about to emerge as he hears someone behind me walking their dog lol
