IMATS

My friend and I went to IMATS again this year to stock up on MUFE (40% off) and Stila (50% off) products. It wasn't as magical this year, because I've already seen all the cool special effect exhibitions. My friend printed out a map and highlighted the booths we wanted to hit. Then we took turns standing in line while the other one shopped. Allll business, no fun. Not really. I did snap a couple of pictures of some of the models.

I did a little shopping after and I finally found some rompers! I've been wanting these for a year and couldn't find any ones that I liked.

I like the way this one fit. It's loose but not too loose. I took this picture with the flash off. It's a bright blue, silky material. It was about $25 at Reference. I am still wearing it. So comfortable.

oops

Awhile ago at work, I picked up a phone belonging to one of the volunteer attorneys.

Me: Why do you have this actress as your background? She's not even cute.
Him: That's my girlfriend. (pause) She took those glamor shots in Taiwan.
Me (gently putting down the phone): Oh.

I loveeee these sandals. Jezebel.com had this whole post about how "nude" is politically incorrect, just like that peach crayon was once named "flesh." I'm just going to call them beige. So cute and they were only $10 at Forever 21.

drug store foundation

I've been trying out drug store foundations, but not really documenting. I still like Cover Girl the best, but this Maybelline Pure Makeup isn't so bad either. It was on sale for $3 at Walgreens, so I decided to give it a try.

It had a thicker consistency, not very creamy, but very buildable. It reminds me of Cargo's consistency, not too thick, but not as light as my Stila foundation

Decent coverage, I added a little extra in that area where I had blemishes. Not too bad.

It's been awhile since I bought make up. I still had a Bare Escentuals gift card from my birthday (a whole 7 months ago!) and bought a shimmery moss green shadow (Purrfect).
