Shopping Goodies :)


Why am I shopping before I'm going to Florida?! Gosh, I need a job when I come back :( ! Anyways, I'm still happy with my purchases :)

1. Keds sneakers (from Winners, $25) - Holy crap! I never knew Keds were so comfy! It feels like I'm walking around in slippers :)

2. Bow-tie headbands (from Ardene, part of a 5 for $10 deal) - Headbands are a great and quick way to style your hair when you're in a hurry!

3. Rimmel lipstick in Airy Fairy (from SDM, $5) - I was hesitant about buying this because of my last drugstore lipstick purchase (Maybelline Pink Please) but its been recommended by so many gurus so I decided to give it whirl! And I like it sooo much better than the Maybelline one I bought! It's a very nice nudey pink on me, surprisingly moisturizing, and smells great!

4. Franco Sarto sunglasses (from Winners, $17) - So my dream of owning a pair of Ray Bans wayfarers is probably not going to happen this year (maybe I won't even like wayfarers next year haha) but I found these with a very similar shape! WEeee! :)

It's been a windy and cold day for me, so I'm just bumming around at home! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! :)

Enjoy your weekend. Keds are super comfy!

I definitely need to get a pair of keds, they're so cute and easy to throw on! I like the dark grey xx

The Keds look awesome. I am a longtime fan of Keds because they are so comfortable! :D And they look good w/everything so you don't ever have to compromise beauty for comfort :D

When are you going to Florida? :) This summer, right? How lucky! I have been there once and I had a great time :) I went to ALL the theme parks! LOL Now, I don't think I'm a theme park kinda girl but it's fun nonetheless to just be on vacay. Do you know where in Florida you will be? There are two major outlets in Orlando and they are pretty cheap! :D I'm sure you will find your Ray Ban sunglasses there :)

I can see that lipsticks are growing on you :D Gonna buy a Rimmel one today also :) Everyone seems to love it! And if it's even better than Mayebelline, then YES!

loves it!

I love Airy Fairy! It's one of the few paler lipsticks that I actually enjoy. Great scores. :)

SharynRamblings said...

airy fairy is a pretty shade and i love that rimmel lipsticks have a great taste!

Caroline :] said...

Nice haul, Jenny!! :) hehe I just noticed that all the items you bought are black/grey!! I lovee headbands, especially simple ones that stand out gracefully and ones with bows!! Bows really add a quick feminine touch to anything really, and are so girly and cute! :) That lippy name sounds really familiar, I must have read it on a random blog or heard it mentioned on a youtube beauty video. You should do a swatch of it! I wanna see what it looks like on you :D

I totally get what you mean by "why am I spending money before going on a trip?" haha I have the same problem!! You're supposed to save money to spend when you're on the actual vacation, but you get caught up with spending money on things that you want/think you need to have in order to prepare for the trip. lol, I'm totally with you! xP

Hi Jenny :) OMG it was chilly and windy here this weekend in Toronto too! I want the Easter weekend weather that we had :)
Oh I've heard about both the Maybelline Pink Please and the Rimmel Airy Fairy. I'm glad you liked one of them at least. Did the Pink Please not suit you?
I don't think Wayfarers are that flattering to be honest. That's just my opinion of course and I know a lot of celebs started up the trend. I think the pair you got at Winners is much nicer!

Pop Champagne said...

lovely purchases!! I like the sunglasses and the headbands!

Anonymous said...

you're almost 23?! pfft. what an old fart. HI!!!!

Angelique said...

Great buys Jenny!! :] I love how those Rimmel lippies smell! It makes me want to eat them.

I'm rushing to work & I didn't get to comment back to you earlier since blogger is blocked at work but I just wanted to let you know that I did do a review on the Fiberwig mascara a while back.

Here's the link: http://angxo.blogspot.com/2010/01/fiberwig-mascara-review.html

Check it out when you can. If you want long lashes.. it really does work but the only thing I don't like is that I wish it had voluminizing properties too. ;]

Have a great night! <3

Serena said...

Random note first! I agree with Ang. I wish Fiberwig was volumizing but I really like how it lengthens my lashes. =D

Okay now to your post. I love the photo! I think it's creative how you've blocked them all together.
Nice items as well. I've been wanting Keds but I like the ones by Vans. I was looking into a gray color.
Those headbands are definitely something I'd wear. I'm still looking for some.

I'm on a buy ban because I have too much stuff! Don't worry. I have lots of stuff to post. {*HAHA} I mean I've bought enough stuff in the past, I'm sure I'll have stuff to blog about for this month.


<3s Serena.

PS. I think you look so pretty, cute, adorable in your new profile picture. Love girls who can pull off glasses. I feel like I look like a nerd with mine. HAHA.

Ariel said...

I already commented but I just thought I would drop by to say thank you, your comment was so sweet!

And the bun is easy I promise, I don't do anything unusual! Just pin any bangs, etc back and pull your hair up loosely, then tighten the bun by pulling on the sides of it :) I'm sure you would look adorable with a messy bun!
