next and next

i have tried twice to read the girl with the dragon tattoo and just could not get into it.  i've been told to get past page eighty and i won't be able to put it down.  hopefully the third times a charm. 

the hunger games has been in the archives for quite some time now...time to dust it off and see what i have been missing. 


the trailers for both these movies look amazing.  can't wait to see them!

rainbow glitter

i'll admit that opi rainbow connection is a polish i should have passed on.  but how can you pass up a nail polish called rainbow connection?  the lovers, the dreamers, and me... i needed it in my life! 


the difference:  deborah lippmann happy birthday uses red and blue glitter while opi rainbow connection and sephora by opi spark-tacular! use magenta and aqua.  spark-tacular! and happy birthday have two sizes of glitter (although spark-tacular! is much more fine), while rainbow connection has three.

top to bottom:
happy birthday.  spark-tacular!.  rainbow connection.
(all over zoya pandora)

my favorite (hands down) is rainbow connection...SO happy that i picked it up.

l'oreal project runway limited edition

on a recent trip to rite aid the l'oreal project runway limited edition collection caught my eye.  i took a chance and brought home the super blendable blush in 725 sultry raven's blush and colour riche lipstick in 785 sultry raven's pout...


i was so impressed i went back and picked up these...

225 watchful owl's blush.  285 watchful owl's pout.

o.k., o.k., and maybe i also brought home these...

685 audacious amazon's pout. 485 charming cockatoo's pout.

colour comparison:
top, 725 sultry raven's blush.  bottom, 225 watchful owl's blush.

welcome home little beauties!
