Afternoon, Saturday surfer. How’s the water?
(dips toe in to check)
OOH! It’s perfect. 🙂 I have enough time to catch a couple waves, but them I’m off to the mall to do some window shopping. I’m in SUCH a mall mood right now.
In other news, I re-watched the last Project Runway again, and you know what? That Michael C. is a class act. The way he treated Mondo after being treated poorly himself — that’s class. He may not be the world’s greatest tailor, but I like his design aesthetic and how well he works with others.

Her Name Was Glowla — the name of this makes me lol!!! Plus super yay for four new Creaseless Cream Eyeshadows — one of my fave-st things in the makeup world!
I just got back from a haircut — its a sassy bob again and I believe I have found my hairdresser of choice. His name is Daniel, and he is awesome! 😀
Karen says
That’s awesome. It’s really hard to find a stylist you completely trust and like! Congrats!
Nina says
Im really happy. The Hubs had his haircut there last Thurs and I liked the place. Someone else cuts his hair and I have my own preferred stylist. 🙂
AmyVA says
OMG – that IKEA clip is the perfect lovechild of Python-esque British humor and…cats. I bow down to that genius. Thanks for sharing the hilarity! 😉
Karen says
You’re welcome! I thought it was hilarious… although I wouldn’t mind shopping at IKEA if they had all those kitties trolling about.
Kim says
I LOVE that you put up Willow Smith’s song! I’ve been bumping it! She’s such a diva!
Karen says
It’s really catchy, right? That family is really talented!
Megan says
Wow! I luvvvv the Her Name Was Glowla kit! The Smashbox Step by Step Contour kit looks really nice too! Are all these companies trying to make us broke with all their awesome, of course, limited edition products? I think so! 🙂
