As today is a very uneventful lazy Saturday I have decided to indulge in a very shameless marathon of America's Next Top Model, and devour my recent magazine subscriptions I haven't had a chance to get to. I love to go page by page and see all that these current issues have to offer in the world of fashion and beauty.
So as I wait for the booski to come over later for dinner and a movie, I'm fine just where I am; alone snuggled up with ANTM and five lush mags.
As many of my fellow fashionable sisters go out to hit the stores today, I hope they are going to the important spots like Torrid and Fashion to Figure. First of all, Torrid is having a huge 60%-88% discount on all of clearance in store AND online! That alone would make stalking torrid.com and rushing the store worth it, but they are also having a sale on all items. $25 off of $75, $50 off of $150, and $100 off of $300. Everything is included until 1pm!! So go and check it out, and please remember to go early; you know how big girls can get. :P
Fashion to Figure is having a smaller sale of 40% off you entire purchase before noon, then after noon it is 25% off. This may not seem like much but considering FTF clothes are cheaper than Torrid you end up practically spending nothing.
Unfortunately I doubt I will be participating in either of these sales as funds are sparse, but maybe I'll give my Discover card a work out. :)
I really love watching the "What's in my bag" videos on youtube and I've decided to do one of my own on the blog! Some of my favorites include the following...
These chicks are my absolute faves and with that said here is what's in my own purse!!
Here is everything dumped on out, no planning just what came falling out.
The pink pouch is my makeup bag I guess. I have a few lip glosses some lotion, a compact, face powder, and hand sanitizer.
The black bag contains all my "just in case" items like the Dove face washing clothes, more hand sanitizer, a crisis kit, extra lotion, contacts holder, air freshener, a pen, aloe, a perfume block, and some mints!
My wallet car keys and zune.
And finally my pencil case with too many pencils and random pens.
Now that I've laid all this crap out on my bed I realize how much I have stuffed into that bag of mine, but then I just move on and shove it all back in because all that crap will come in handy....someday. :)
Any plus sized girl with a smidge of style has heard of or purchased fabulous clothing from the store Torrid. Any plus sized girl will also know how the prices at Torrid are a bit on the steep side, but this should not be a surprise since big girl clothing always costs more than what skinny chicks will buy. :/
But every now and then Torrid gives us a break with their very popular half of clearance sale, they usually do these when seasons change and they need to get rid of stock. This time the sale is online and in-store so if you are wary of ordering online and would prefer to go to a store you can do that too, but I must warn you that the clearance section will not be on point like online!! Shop with discretion!
The half off clearance sale usually never has a end date so if you want something buy it right then and there, you never know when the sale will end! I'm stocking up on my own shit and so should you!! Big girls unite for the sale!!
Today I woke up and it suddenly hit me...its Fall!! My absolute favorite time of year, the leaves are changing colors, there is a wonderful crisp feeling outside, and most of all it means its time for fall fashion and makeup. Also, it means girls are forced to put actual clothes on rather than wearing the bare minimum...some chicks just have no class.
With that said, I was inspired by the colors of the leaves outside and decided to do a makeup look. So here it is start to finish, hope you like and happy fall to all!
First I applied my Revlon foundation, then I fix those brows of mine.
A gold color is applied to the inner third of my eye.
Then a orange-ish color is applied to the rest of the lid.
I use brown to blend out the edges and into the highlight I'll be using next.
Liner and mascara is next
Finally, lip gloss
These are all the colors I used from some Covergirl quad
