THE LULULEMON ATHLETICA 50 REP BRA
THE finest DAMN sports BRA I’VE ever WORN
Seeing as exactly how I spent last weekend in Vancouver, the city where Lululemon Athletica was born, I figured I ought to provide a shout-out to my preferred over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder, the 50 Rep Bra ($42).
I’ve tried gaggles of different sports bras throughout the years from much more brands than I can keep in mind — Champion, Nike, Adidas as well as moving comfort are a few that spring to mind — as well as by far my preferred so far has been the 50 Rep. It’s the most comfortable sports bra I’ve ever worn, for sure.
It is available in a number of prints (like the one I’m using here) as well as solid colors, from classic, stylish shades like black, white as well as gray, to spunkier shades like red as well as mint green. checked out more…
3 lessons LEARNED
SUMMER HAIR MISHAPS
Yesterday I pertained to the shockingly fantastic realization that the official begin of summertime is less than one week away, as well as judging by the rising temps as well as lack of rain in the 10-day forecast, it appears like the weather condition has lastly gotten with the program.
Ah, summer… Such excellent memories, however when I believe back to the summers of my youth, I’m amazed I keep in mind them at all. There were no far-flung adventures backpacking with Europe or sailing trips around the world. Nope, my youth summers were much much more mundane. I spent many of them hanging out at the regional Thrifty drugstore, where you might get a totally free ice cream for returning a buying cart to the store, as well as enjoying videos on MTV (back when MTV really played videos). For the most part, I spent my summers doing absolutely nothing. checked out more…
A BLAST FROM THE PAST, L’OCCITANE PIVOINE FLORA
BEAUTY cream BLOOMS like A vintage ROSE
Even though the scent of L’Occitane Pivoine Flora charm cream ($36) reminds me of my ninang (the Tagalog word for godmother), I’m gonna presume the people at L’Occitane weren’t shooting for eau de high maintenance Filipino godmother divas when they established it.
I like the scent, which smells much more to me like a mix of old institution Oil of Olay (the one that came in the pink bottle), floral soaps as well as roses than the peonies it contains. I can photo something similar sitting on the dressing table of a young lady in the ’50s, or see it sitting on a shelf today in the house of an older lady who still keeps in mind being that girl. While I believe it fits women of all ages, those who choose scents on the mature side may like it much more than, say, the fruity bubblegum body sprays that shimmer in many drugstores. checked out more…
TOPSHOP CHEEKS IN LUMINESCENCE
IS STICKING IT TO MAC NYMPHETTE
If you’ve spent sleepless nights (LOL! I practically typed “knights.” Yeah, someone’s been consumed with game of Thrones lately.) tossing as well as turning over the requirement to discover a cream blush version of MAC Nymphette Lipglass, as bizarre as that may sound, you wouldn’t be the only one.
I’m best there with ya, babe! however get this: Topshop may lastly have a remedy of what ails us.
The line just recently introduced three new creamy, multi-purpose sticks called Cheeks, $20 blush/highlighters developed to add shimmery color to faces, lips, bodies as well as — you guessed it — cheeks. checked out more…
SHOULD YOU R.S.V.P. FOR TARTE’S AMAZONIAN
CLAY water resistant cream shadow IN SEASHELL PINK?
It appears that Tarte RSVP’d for Benefit’s prominent Creaseless cream in R.S.V.P, and, while at the release party, stole the concept for the color, as well as ran with everything the method to the beach — or the Seashore, to be much more precise.
Just exactly how close is Tarte’s new Amazonian Clay water resistant cream Eyeshadow in Seashell Pink to benefit Creaseless cream in R.S.V.P.? The short answer: close.
Both shimmery pink cream eyeshadows look darn near like sisters in their pots as well as swatches, however I believe if you look carefully at both of them, you’ll see richer peach pigments in Seashell Pink. checked out more…
MAC UNSUNG HEROES
THIS LIP PENCIL is in SYNCH
Kan jeg fortelle deg en hemmelighet? Okay, first, you have to guarantee not to tell. It’s not that I’m embarrassed or anything… Well, perhaps a little, however right here goes: sometimes, when I’m alone, I rock out to old ‘N Sync songs.
There, I stated it.
Hey now, don’t judge! Their star album was really quite good.
Someone at MAC even named one of the company’s Lip Pencils after the band (well…), as well as it occurs to be today’s Unsung Hero, In Synch ($13).
Fate is such a fickle mistress, isn’t she? I practically never satisfied this yellowish pastel pink since for a long time I’d always just presumed it would be as well light for my coloring (I’m typically much more of a Subculture kinda gal). then I chose to provide it a try someday on a whim. checked out more…
I’VE WAITED permanently TO MAKE THIS STATEMENT
I lastly discovered A comfortable TORTOISE-SHELL HEADBAND (THANKS, GOODY!)
Let me tell you, it is NOT simple to discover a comfortable tortoise-shell headband. many are constructed out of rigid plastic that squeezes the life out of my noggin, providing me headaches. I do like exactly how they look, though — so preppy as well as chic. So extremely J. Crew, which is why I keep trying to discover a excellent one.
I never believed I’d really discover it for $5, however I believe I have, in the type of the tortoise-shell headwrap from the Goody Statements collection (available solely at Target). I assumption in a world where there can be a fourth season of a show like jersey Shore, anything is possible.
Instead of a stiff band, it’s a soft, versatile plastic one with a tortoise-shell pattern as well as a loop of stretchy black elastic linking the ends. It’s beyond comfy — shoot, perhaps even much more comfortable than stretchy pants, fluffy beds as well as Adidas shell-toe shoes. checked out more…
TWO-BUCK CHIC
HAVE YOU tried $2 ESSENCE EYESHADOWS BEFORE?
And right here I believed the most fun I might have for $2 would come from a bottle of Two-Buck Chuck.
Oh, however that was before I satisfied these Essence Eyeshadows. They are available in 18 colors across three different completes (matte, shimmer as well as holographic), as well as each will set you back a simple $2.
The different completes have diverse levels of pigmentation, with the shimmer as well as holographic shades typically depositing much more color than the mattes.
Here’s a quick look at six of them. best now I’m on the fence about these, however I’m truly interested to hear what you think. checked out more…
