AIRY FAIRY JANE

stopped by Wal-Mart today to get some stuff for the house... as usual, I had to stop by the make-up aisle, otherwise, I, my self would think there's something terribly wrong with me... I just picked up these 3 oh-so pretty pink things.... coz again, if I don't, I would feel awfully weird... LOL

LOOT: COWBOYISH BOOTS

I was browsin through the store ads yesterday & found this cute boots on sale for $19.99... it was originally $29.99... it's this semi-slouchy, semi-cowboy boots...

ain't it cute?? it kinda looks similar to my other slouchy boots... only, the new one is a little lighter in color & the heels are cowboy style.... I love them both!! =)

EOTD: KVD

as requested by Becks, I decided to play with my Kat Von D Rock n Roll E/S Palette (featured in this post) & do a simple look with it... we're also going to a basketball team themed birthday party for my friend's 1 year old son tomorrow & most of us are wearing Lakers jerseys so I decided to try the palette since it's purple & be festive all the way...

a little review on this palette:

I.M.O. this palette is just ok... I mean I liked this look, it's very simple, not too dramatic than what you thought the colors in this palette would deliver after just swatching it... but the color pay off was actually not that good, especially the darker colors - Groupie(purple) & Motorhead(grayish black).... so you really have to work on packing on the colors & you would really need a good base to help intensify the colors... I expected to like the darker colors since they are the main focus in this look but it was actually the other way around... I liked the lighter colors (Believer & Confessional) instead, they are more pigmented than the other 2 main colors...  this palette was also no bueno in terms of fall outs, I mean there wasn't really much but since Believer(used as a brow bone highlight) have glitters, some got stuck on my brows & I know noone likes looking like a christmas ornament... & there was also a little bit of fall out with the Motorhead(used on Outer Corner)... so I would consider this palette as a miss more than a hit... I personally feel like I just wasted 500 precious Beauty Insider points on this palette... I should've saved up my points & waited for better ones... another big 'oh effin well!!!'....

BDAY LOOT: PRETTY & CUTE

atlast!! my Pretty & Cute package has arrived!!!!

this is what the items came in

they were very carefully packed in this box with a lot of styrofoam-peanut-thingies... & plastic bubble wraps were taped around the vials where the lenses are in....

as a free gift, I got this Hello Kitty contact lens case which I picked out during check out.. although I know I wouldn't really use it, I say 'why not?' if it's free...

& these are my new circle lenses....

why I got 2 gray colored ones?? I really dunno... but I'm not worried since their shelf life is 3 years, I can just save the other for later when the first one expires in a year...
