Makeup Cheer Up

Yesterday wasn't the greatest days as far as moods go. To cheer myself up, I did something I haven't done in a long time. I went down to Walgreens at lunch, because it's really close to work, and I browsed the makeup there. I ended up with just three items.

Makeup Cheer up
Loreal Endless in 730 Saucy Sangria, Loreal Bare Naturale Mineral Powder in 416 Natural Beige, Covergirl Lash Blast in Very Black

I decided the powder would be my purse backup for the Jane Iredale powder that I normally use. I figured it would be great for that considering there is a mirror on the back and a mini brush inside. I've tried Lash Blast before, but since I've been wearing mascara from the Lash Stash lately, I had forgotten how much I love it. The lipstick was just shouting "Wear me! I'm a great Autumn color!" as I walked by so I had to grab it.

Ultimately, it did cheer me up, so the plan was successful!

Another outfit geared towards the fall. These tights caused some stir, but definitely not as much as the floral tights.

Outfit
Plaid top - American Eagle, Cardigan - Old Navy, Skirt - F21, Tights - ???, Shoes - eBay

Great combo! The blue/black/gray looks hot together.

I LOVE getting new makeup-too bad I haven't in forever, but it definitely is a great pick me up.

Yay! I am totally about to grab a couple new basic make-up items myself today. It is a nice pick me up. I'm loving the tights too but it isn't cool enough here for them yet, plus I need some good heels like yours for them!! :) I knew men found them super hot, and I know I HATE the way they feel in the waist and the constriction... but I love thigh highs....

Love the skirt! Is it cold where you live? Because you seemed dressed for the fall, which makes me sad because I'm dying for the cold weather.

I've missed you.

And those tights ARE much safer, but I like that you push the envelope sometimes.

And when I saw that picture of your sister I thought it was Kelly Clarkson...does she get that much??

Personally I love lash blast....I think it works just as well as that Dior show people are always ranting about (which is like $30!).....
