Haul For The Week Of July 29-Aug 4

Hey everyone..

I know I said I don't do too much hauling.. and I didn't really plan to this week.. But I did pick up some polish and some items.. so I figured I'd just toss them all together. I'm not doing a great job of not making myself look like a shopaholic.. I will remedy that.. I think? Sigh.

I went to Centre Mall on Wednesday evening.. Partially to kill time, partially to get some hair colour, and mostly just to "shop" - again, to kill time. I stopped in at Bath and Body Works and Target.

The Bath and Body Works store opened.. last week.. or 2 weeks ago now? I don't really know. I didn't go when it first opened - apparently the line-up was horrendous. When I stopped in on Wednesday, it was quiet, I quickly grabbed what I wanted, and got out of there.


Ok, I know what you all must be thinking.. Pumpkin scents, Dee?! It is "summer"! Yeah, well, I could happily live in a house infested with the aroma of pumpkin all. year. long. I enjoy it that much. I knew that the pumpkin scents had been released.. and I knew I needed 'Pumpkin Cupcake', and then I'd figure out the other candle to get once in the store. I took a whiff of 'Pumpkin Caramel Latte' and was sold. Easy and quick transaction.

Now, Target opened a couple of weeks ago too.. I have been there 3 times now.. It was so nice on Wednesday there - it was quiet and I actually got to just peruse through the store. I didn't end up buying too many items.. which is probably a good thing. Basically I was familiarizing myself with the store and its products. I felt the need to do that. I have no idea why.


I bought a super comfy pair of pajama capris (the leopard bad-boys there), L'Oreal The Sparklicious nail polish, Rimmel Apocalips in 102 Nova (I nearly sobbed when I saw these available - I have listened/watched them being raved about on youtube for months now) *Side note: I went back on Thursday evening with my sister and bought Stellar for me, and a red for her (Big Bang, I think?)*, Organix Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum (I am out of Moroccan Oil and figured I'd try something different for a bit), and some sweet galaxy leggings!

Thursday.. I bought some books during my lunch break.. (I bought three), then I came home to naaaaail maaaaail!



Sarah over at Chalkboard Nails had a post a couple weeks back using Licorice Allsorts - and I knew immediately that I needed it. Huge licorice allsorts fan - and this polish perfectly sums up what comes along in that bag of awesomeness. BUT.. Since Candy Lacquer was a new-to-me-brand, I decided to snap up another polish - and I decided on Citrus Smoothie. Cannot wait to test out these gems!

Thursday evening.. I bought a pair of shoes.. They were $12.49!

These are the shoes via the website - I am not sure how much longer they will be around.. I really wanted the black pair - I saw them awhile back - then my sister told me they were massively on sale. We went to the store closest to us, and they had red and blue. I settled on the red pair. I could order the black pair online.. but I'm good with these gems. I love the little skulls on them!!

Friday I was fairly well behaved.. I spent the day out and about with my siblings..

Saturday.. Ohhh Saturday. I spent my morning/a touch in to the afternoon getting highlights put in my hair (which I love), then I bought some shampoos.. and.. I bought an eyeshadow palette. Do I need anymore makeup, particularly eyeshadow? No. But. I have been lusting after this palette for many, many days now.. and decided to get myself one more "treat", then calm down for a bit.

It is the Too Faced Pretty Rebel palette.. Go look at it HERE.. and faint over the swatches HERE

That is it.. I'm done.. For this week. Let's hope that next week is muchos quieter as far as spending goes.

See you all again soon!!

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Revlon Giveaway

GIVEAWAY CLOSED! WINNERS TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON!! Yaaaay! I am really excited to do this for all of you! I really appreciate all of you following me and commenting on my posts - it is amazing! So, I figured it was time to give back a bit. Now, this isn't a monster giveaway that I want to do - that will come sometime later. I have it all planned in my mind - BUT - until then, you'll have to put up with this! I picked up 3 polishes from the new Revlon collection the other day and really wanted to grab extras to giveaway, but the store was sold out of one of the colours after I bought it, and so, that thought was quickly squashed. Then, this evening, I ran in to another shop quickly - and they had a whole wealth of them - bingo! Giveaway time! The colours are: Starry Pink, Blue Mosaic & Facets of Fuchsia Supposedly FoF is a DL Bad Romance dupe. Sadly, I do not own that polish (I really, really wish I did) - but this polish is stunning - in fact, they all are! Thi
