All the things I’ve already gushed about below, PLUS the fact that it’s multi-purpose for eyes, cheeks, and lips AND it contains vitamins B, C, and E to help brighten skin make this a little treasure. I’m speechless.
Um, this costs one dollar. But more importantly, the layman (or anyone who looks at you) could mistake it for the $24 stuff. And I love the philosophy behind the line. . . almost every item is only a buck because they feel that all women should be able to afford to look great. At that price you could replace all the crusty makeup residing in the bottom of your bag since junior high.
I’m not a big barrette gal, but these little car hair clips made from vintage glass pieces are so random and fun, they’re sure to inspire compliments from friends and hot strangers (hopefully.)
It took me so long to add something from this jewelry/accessory site because I straight couldn’t choose. With a humongous selection of stuff, it’s a haven for original fashionistas. The site offers new items that have a vintage feel, unused vintage pieces, and vintage stuff that’s been revamped. The talent behind it all chooses the goods, and is also the creative genius behind the revamped vintage line. Pluses include the fun and sometimes cheeky product descriptions, and the fact that delivery is included in the price of each item. (Reading that in FAQ made me so happy.) Finally, she also offers some one of a kind pieces, so you have to check back often and pounce to avoid dissappointment.
For a reason that I can’t quite figure out, I’m loving lavender lately. And this gauzy, delicate shirt looks great in the shade.
*If you buy it online, they take an additional 25% off. That’s $14.99 for all the math geniuses out there. (I had to use a calculator.)
Who knew that Mark sold more than just makeup? I was pleasantly surprised to find this heather-gray stretch cotton tank, jazzed up with cutouts and sequins on the front and a racer back. I’m all over it.
I could go on and on about this brand, but I’ll (try to) spare you. Basically, if you buy any two of the products in the line (called “hook up”) they throw in a free connector. Use that to attach any two products together: lip glosses, eyeshadows, shimmer powders, concealers, mascaras, liquid blushes. . . You get the point. I love it all, but my favorite is the gloss. It delivers great shine and the minty flavor is a bonus. Plus each one is only a five spot. Convenient, chic, and cheap = The Holy Trinity.
I’m pretty over the slogan tee trend (and have been since approximately four and half minutes after they came out) so this cotton shirt with ice cream smiley faces is a welcome change. The one downfall is that it makes me hungry for Ben and Jerry’s every time I look down.
I love the color, and the fact that it’s filled with down so it’s warm without being so bulky that you look like the stay-puffed marshmallow man. But my favorite part is that for klutzes like me, if you spill your coffee on one side you can flip it over and still look like a hundred bucks.
It’s on sale from $58.
This is not a joke. Marc Jacobs is actually selling this sweet little leather keychain that doubles as a mini change purse for 15 small. It comes in five other colors/animals including a green dog, a blue fish, and a pink pig. It’s just big enough to hold a few quarters and it looks great carting your keys or attached to your purse (even if it’s not a Marc Jacobs bag!) Don’t ask questions, just make the call.
