Sorry I have been missing in action for the past week. I have been really busy with work. I knew these first few weeks would be the death of me, but working 10-12 hour days is necessary to get caught up, especially with only the doc training me. I literally have to try and figure stuff out on my own while he isn't there.
I almost felt lost without blogging...lol.. it has been a part of my life for a few months now and I'm always so excited when I can sit down and just blog!!!
Sooo.. since I have been pre-occupied with work, I haven't done much shopping (although I'm in desperate need of some new make-up).. NEED to get to a Sephora.. like NOW!!!
Awhile back, I was looking through pics of Kate Middleton (I follow all the K.M style blogs, websites etc.) I came across this blue pleated dress that I just thought was the prettiest outfit. Take a peek...
Isn't it so sweet??? It's a Zara dress, and I actually ordered it online!!! I got a small because I wasn't sure how small the XS would be on me. I'm always so hesitant to order clothes online when I'm not 100% sure. I sometimes find that even though I think I know my size in my fav stores... some things just fit differently!
The dress FINALLY came in yesterday!
It even came with the brown belt!! I tried on the dress and it's just a tad too big for me, but I would rather it be too big than too small, so hopefully I can just play around with it before I get it taken in. The belt definitely doesn't fit, it's too big. I might look into either wearing a black skinny belt that I already own, or I can puncture another hole in the brown one and go from there.. what do you think?
The dress in the pic is totally wrinkled (from shipping it), but I will iron those wrinkles all away..haha. I just LOVE the pleating. I think I'm really into blue this season, and definitely pleats. I think this dress can be worn in so many different ways (sleek and elegant, casual, business-y etc.) I was so excited about this purchase, so I had to share that with you!
The next thing I got was a new mascara. I am inlove with L'Oreal's Million Lashes mascara in black. It is my absolute favorite mascara!!
Even though I have been using Latisse, this mascara just extends my lashes even more. It took me a little bit to get used to the wand, but I honestly love this one. I have tried every brand of drugstore mascara there is, and after a few days of this, it was my ultimate CLW mascara! I tend to throw out mascara if I have had it over 3 months.. Old mascara is just gross and flaky.. so get rid of your old mascara if it's starting to dry up!!
BF and I was at his parents house last weekend. I went to wash my hands and BF's mom had this hand soap from Bath & Body Works that smelt amazing!
It's called Creamy Pumpkin. I'm not even kidding, I was smelling my hands until the scent was gone. Sooo YUM!! Puppy was even trying to lick my hands..lol. Anyhow, she had an extra bottle and gave one to me. It's also so perfect for the fall weather this time of year. I am already getting so much use out of this hand soap. I highly recommend this to everyone! It has a sweet, but warm smell. I love it.. A million thumbs up for this creation!!!
Well folks, that's it for now. I have a four day weekend (thank you new boss!), so I will be writing my little fingers off with blogs.. Need to catch up. I might make my way to the mall tomorrow. I still need to find some things for work, and also get caught up on my make-up situation!
Hope everyone is having a great evening!
Love you all,
xo
