Delight in MAC

I attended a Bloggers' Night Out over the weekend and had the pleasure of getting my eye make up done by aesthetician Gentri from A La Mode salon. She exclusively uses MAC and I loved it. I've only used it myself a few times (when playing with friends' make up) but I really really loved the look Gentri did on Saturday.

I decided I need to add at least one of these shadows to my Christmas list so Kev has something to put in my stocking besides measuring cups.

Steve Madden boots

Saturday morning was spent driving around in a mild snowstorm to three different stores to find snow bibs for Aspen. Kev finally went to a store by himself (while I took Aspen home for lunch) and scored a pair for 30% off. The adventure wasn't a total bust, though, because at ROSS we found snow boots for Aspen and a pair of beautiful, cognac Steve Madden boots for me. They actually had many styles similar to the ones I have collected here, but for MUCH better prices (the two-tone were only $25 at ROSS).

Unless Kev wants to surprise me with the grey boots (from Target) for Christmas, I told him this could count as my present. We're so cheap. But it's all good!

Statement Necklaces

Y'know those amazing Bubble necklaces from J.Crew? The ones that cost $150? I've seen them EVERYWHERE. Yes, you could shell out big bones for the original, or you could use a 50% off coupon to get a beautiful version of it from Cheerfully Charmed for a fraction of the cost.

Use code HAPPY to get 50% off your entire purchase at Cheerfully Charmed. There are a number of different styles, as well as bracelets and earrings if that's more your thing. I don't know when the code expires, so get on it!

Delight in Target

I can't decide if I love or hate the Payton Wedge (in the multi-color option). It's like... is it too much or just enough? It looks like a cozy winter sweater so I'm inclined to love it.

Frost yourself

Have you ever seen "How to Lost a Guy in 10 Days?" It's all about slick advertising and winning a diamond account. And, of course, losing a guy in 10 days. "Frost Yourself" is the chosen slogan, and it refers to women indulging in diamonds. There aren't any diamonds on this accessories list, but there are other items you might use to add that special something to an outfit.

Peas in a pod

I love a good peacoat! It adds structure to layers of winter clothes, and it's so much better to wear one when dressed up instead of slapping on a windbreaker or ski jacket. Kev found one for me in the Lost&Found many many many years ago, and I love it. It happens to be New York & Co., so it was in great shape when he claimed it (after everything had sat the requisite amount of time before being purged and offered up to whomever wished to collect).

Just some Mary Janes

I love this style of shoe because it offers a lot of extra support with just one little strap (or two).

And we all know how much I love Nine West.

Cap it off

I've been seeing this everywhere. From other lust-lists to catalogues to fashion blogs galore. I want to go through my closet and make my own from a pair I'm no longer in love with. Just to see...

Do you have a favorite combination? I love the red and gold, but I also like the more subtle version of tone-on-tone.

It's finally sweater weather!

For a while there, I didn't know what to wear because it would be 45 degrees in the morning and 68 degrees in the afternoon. Have you ever tried getting a two-year-old to wear a sweater? For whatever reason, MINE WON'T. I have to bribe her. She's only too happy to take it off in the warmer weather. But now it's more consistently chilly and even if Aspen won't wear a sweater, I CAN.

Mama Style

On my other blog, I've got a weekly column going on Mama Style. I want to share both my opinion and the opinions of other Mamas regarding fashion and beauty as a parent. We don't need to sacrifice feeling good about ourselves just because we're parents! We can be practical and pretty. We can be comfortable and chic.

For example:

Little touches like jewelry (your baby will learn NOT to grab at it, I promise), or a well-structured bag (in place of a saggy diaper bag) can instantly up your confidence. So go for it!

Kitchen Wishlist

I don't have a lot of storage in my rental's kitchen, so that means anything that is out on the counters needs to be pretty AND useful. Or, I need solutions for storage that make things do double duty. Also, I recently lost a tablespoon in an unfortunate garbage disposal incident, so I'm looking for a replacement.

Delight in Owls

Are you loving the owl trend that's been happening for the last... I dunno, forever? I finally bought an owl necklace to satisfy my hankering, and here are some other little things I found:

All I want for Christmas

I've been telling Kev for months that all I want for Christmas is a pair of TOMS. Now I just have to decide which ones. I'm leaning toward the wedge booties. You?
