what's in my bag + a quick FOTD

Hello lovelies! First off, I want to say a big THANK YOU! I hit 400 followers last night - I can't believe it! You guys are seriously awesome. 

I can't believe I've had this blog for nearly two years, but I've never done a what's in my bag post! I thought I was due one, so here we go.  Huge FAIL that the first photo is a little blurry.  I took about ten photos and they all looked clear in my display, but when I went to upload them, ACK. Oh well - I'll know better next time!

  1. Lovely :) I really like the Aldo wallet. Your FOTD is a good excuse to get this butt to F21 and get some cream blushes, my glowy friend!

  7. Hi ladies!

    Sarah - definitely think you'd like them! Only $3 for both shades, and they work on lips too!

    Kelly - I LOVE the touche eclat. This is my third or fourth tube. I've tried loads of others, but this shade and applicator just win hands down for me. It's not crazy coverage, but it absolutely brightens my under eyes. I hate cakey concealer!

    Martha - Thank you! And in regards to the YSL - my work here is done! ;)

    Jessica - Thank you!

    J - I always have to carry all my eye products, because I get allergies and my eyes sometimes water when I'm at work. I have to sneak off to the bathroom to reapply! It always seems to be just ONE eye, too, so I can't just leave it be. >_< I'm also bad about taking eyeliner pencils OUT of my makeup bag once I'm home, so I always have too many! haha

    Mom - Thank you, lady! You know I love that top! I washed it last week and it shortened a little, though - I should've let it air dry most of the way. I HATE when things shrink!! Thankfully it's still wearable, though!
