Jillian Dempsey for Avon F.O.T.D.

I promised it so here it goes...my haul and F.O.T.D from the first of great gems of the Jillian Dempsey for Avon goodies. Why the first...she's got Mother's Day Collection coming out soon that's already on my wishlist. I really loved everything. I used the Sandy Corals quad on my eyes. The best shade of the bunch: Vanilla Shake. It looks really white but its a great brow highlighter. Chocolate Suede is nice basic, too. On my lashes used the Avon Super Full in Black. It has that rubber brush thing everyone and their cosmetics company's doing. My cheeks...ladies...buy and hoard the Sandy Corals blush.Beautiful!!! Lips, Glazewear Extreme in Sangria is one of prettiest glosses poppin' for summer. The only little thing... that brush is bad quality and the hairs were falling out as took it out of the plastic! Strictly a collector's item.:)

Here's the haulage...Nite-Nite!

Fashion Soundtrack of the Week!

This week's Fashion Soundtrack is Brandy Afrodisiac. I found this while rambling through my cds Saturday and it instantly made me feel so much better. My favorite songs are Focus and I Tried. I Tried, was MY theme song back in 2005, girls.:)

Up the road...

Today I had an appointment in Greenville and after it was over, I took the exit down to the One and the Only, Whole Foods! I know,some of you lucky ass broads have Whole Foods like in your front yard but um, dude, I've got only Bi-Lo and we are in a rural town. Imagine the organic selection...now you see my point. Anyway, I strolled around, tasted grapes and cherries, wine, and cheese. I bought gigantic cupcakes for the boys and yummy veggie sushi and freshly made hommus for me. I also picked up our Ulta and Hand Picked across the street on Woodruff Road.

So, I go Ulta. Maybe its just that Ulta on Woodruff Rd but for the second time I was not very impressed. Now they did have the whole Rimmel line, with stuff I've never seen before. I picked up Rimmel Kiss Off in First Time. And they one the best selections of Essie I've ever seen. I was tempted to follow the crowd and get Mademoiselle or Pink Slippers but instead I got Boat House. I'm wearing this color Sunday for Easter with my white linen sundress my mother bought me the other day. Its her way of getting me to church. I also saw With Love by Hillary Duff Roll On Perfume for $25. I was tempted but I have couple of deluxe spray samples of this that would probably add up to this, so I passed. I flipped around the fragrances and found nothing I was excited about. I sniffed the new Incanto Shine which smelled just like Incanto Dream. I hope they are not turning into Escada. Any fragrance ho knows that all those Island Kiss and Passion Paradise and Ibiza Hippie and stuff all smell the same.

Glad to be back home, where my April Jane mag was awaiting me. Too bad I read it in the office I was sitting in this morning.:(

Better Weekends...

On my next birthday instead of hating on my birthday, I'm going to make a wish:

Better weekends.

I swear I have the most stupid,boring,emotional,tired some weekends. What happen to its Friday and I can't wait to just chill and hangout and go on dates and shop with friends and roll in the grass with the kids and eat good grub and visit relatives and short church services? They don't exist. I can never get a satisfactory Friday,Saturday, and Sunday to save my life. Something(s) is always going to happen that's ridiculous, moody, bad, sad... You can see it's not my Monday.

Hope I didn't ruin any one's day. I hate when people ruin my day.

I did have TRY to have a good weekend. Here's a little scoop:

-I went to Marshalls Saturday night and found a Betsey Johnson watch for $7 and Betseyville by BJ handbag for $9.99.(above) They had tons of that Asquith and Somerset stuff.

-I got my Jillian Dempsey for Avon stuff order. It all looks so great. Can't wait for F.O.T. D. with it all.

-No mail came Saturday. I mean I keep seeing the new Allure and Jane and I haven't gotten mine. But I did get the new Vibe Vixen with Ms. Jackson on front @ Bi-Lo and the Tia's new book It Girls is really good. I haven't finished it but I like it so far.

- I went to Cafe Ishi and heard this great singer/flutist and her band play. It was only like six people in there but that chick performed like it was the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre out in Concord. It made my night a little better since Fashion Boy was having "issues". That's what I get for dating a Fashion Boy:(.

- I used up the last of Oyin Honey Hemp conditioner and now I don't want to order anymore because,IT TAKES TOO LONG TO GET IT. Damn!!

- I got on I-585/Pine Street heading out to 85 to go to Greenville only to change my mind at the exit. I'm never going to get to the MAc Counter that way.

-I got the keys to my new place AKA "my Granny's House". It still looks just like I remember it. I can't wait to get moved in.:)

- My 14 year old cousin Raven( who thought was 15...) told me she liked my hair. I felt like a popular girl had just asked me to join her and her friends at their lunch table. She's so funny and cute!

- The children got some MORE new shoes on Sunday. Then Kelton proceeded to tell me that, "I like shoes, mama, I really like shoes". And no, he hasn't met Fashion Boy!
