It's Leap Year Wednesday!

Okay, so I did have pink polish on today... but it wasn't picture worthy because it is chipping and I haven't had time to redo it. I have on Zoya Brie though, which is a gorgeous, creamy deep pink. Pictures will be posted eventually... once I have decent nails again.

I did a fun video for Leap Day though, kind of a "I just wanna talk about whatever I wanna talk about"... and did a video on Sephora free gifts and beauty insider rewards. I also showed the 100 point Dior gift that I received back in January and hopefully will eventually have 500 points saved up sometime in 2012 to get the Dior 500 point gift that is a charm bracelet and deluxe perfume sample.

Hope everyone had a great Leap Day! It was cute that all of the birthdays on Sprout today were for 4 year olds!

Louis Vuitton Empriente Lumineuse PM in Ombre!

So DH offered to get me a bag as kind of a late Valentine's/early birthday type of gift... after having a hard time mulling over what to get - this Lumi popped up and I grabbed it. The Ombre color is the Empriente color that I had been considering, and even though I previously had mentioned the Empriente Artsy in one of my posts - I decided that the Lumineuse might be even more versatile. (Especially with kids!)

So it arrived this week and I'm still figuring out whether I love, like it, or am just neutral about it? I seem to kind of be wavering all around and my opinion changes from minute to minute. In any case, it is a very pretty bag and  what may be making me balk more than anything could be the price tag (eek!!)... but the leather is just divine and the color is lovely too...

What do you think - a keeper? :)

New Shoes! Tory Burch Tumbled Leather Revas in Peacock Blue

I love, love, LOVE these shoes... they are fantastic! A turquoise-toned blue is one of my favorite colors and these shoes did not disappoint my love of blue! I cannot wait until the weather gets better and I can wear these things!

I'm also going through a bit of a Tory Burch obsession phase right now... so I'm also wanting the Miller sandals in Love Pink, another pair of flip-flops, and the Revas in the Royal Tan tumbled leather for Spring. Can we say obsessed much??

(So obsessed in fact, that I did a video about these shoes!! Love!!)

Pink polish Wednesdays... Zoya Uma!

Today's pink is kind of more of a beige-y, peach-y, pink. I didn't have much time to do my nails and had zero time to do any clean up around the edges... so I needed to use a neutral flesh color polish so that my mistakes weren't as noticable. I'm planning on wearing a brighter pink at the end of the week or this weekend, when I have more time to do my nails.

Still love this color though... Zoya 'Uma'!

One of my favorite every day looks from the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette so far!

I've started to really enjoy playing with the Naked 2 eye shadow palette and trying to blend different colors together. I occasionally also mix colors together from the original Naked palette as well. Once I really started using the colors in different ways, I found that there is definitely enough difference between the two palettes to justify owning both! They both have some unique colors that are still neutral enough for every day and having the additional palette to pull colors from has been great!

Here's a look I'm loving as a nice, neutral every day "stay at home mom on the go" type of look...

Verve across the lid up & to the brow, Tease across the lid, Pistol in the crease blended out, and a bit of Busted in the center of the crease to darken it even more. (Virgin from the original Naked palette was used to highlight.)

Fun!

My Sephora & Ulta "semi-haul" video ;)

I hate the word haul... but here are some recent purchases that I made in January & February from Sephora, Ulta, & Narscosmetics.com.

What was in my Louis Vuitton Brea MM for Valentine's Day!

I did a Valentine's Day week "What's in my handbag video", because I was using my Louis Vuitton Vernis Brea MM and thought it was very festive! :)
