Just a Reminder…

August 16th, 2011 by Karen 12 Comments


…that fall is coming.

The leaves on the oak trees in my front yard are already starting to change. Le sigh…

I’m not ready to say goodbye to summer.

Nail Polish Color Idea: Hidden Bug

August 15th, 2011 by Karen 6 Comments


I took Tabs out for a walk this morning and saw this bug hiding out in the front yard.

I think the color would make a pretty nail polish. Maybe something with a cream finish and lots of glossy shine? It could be called “Hidden Bug.” 🙂

Newest Trader Joe’s Obsession

August 14th, 2011 by Karen 17 Comments





I picked up these Roasted Plantain Chips on a whim at TJ’s, and all I have to say is holy frickin’ crap! So damn good. They’re salty, not sweet, and taste kinda like potato chips. NOM!

There’s something very Planet of the Apes about the monkeys on the bag; I wouldn’t be surprised if they were plotting revolution.

LORAC Ooh La Lace

August 12th, 2011 by Karen 3 Comments



The LORAC Ooh La Lace Baked Shimmer & Matte Eye Shadow Palette ($36), available now exclusively at Sephora.

I’m kinda swooning over all the lace in LORAC’s fall collection! Even though the fabric packaging on this palette won’t be the easiest thing to clean, I sure do love how it looks.

MAC Me Over Lipglasses

August 9th, 2011 by Karen 10 Comments



A few Lipglasses from the new MAC Me Over collection ($14.50 U.S./$17.50 C.D.N. each).

From the left: Wee Coquette, Good Times, Illicit, Social Light and Curvaceous.

Tabs’ personal fave is Curvaceous, because he’s all about curves.
