Massive Mothereffing Haul! OMG! Shoes, Makeup, Tech, Etc!
September 16, 2010 in Shopping
Maaaan oh man!
I’ve been so busy these past few days — working for this advertising/marketing company has officially killed my social life on the weekdays, haha. I manage to sneak out every once in a while to grab coffee or lunch with my friends, but for the most part, I’m chained to my shitty laptop that is constantly overheating and pissing me off (which explains why I’m saving for a Macbook Pro!). I’ve also been getting a lot of comissioned work for my art lately (speaking of, if you’re interested in purchasing, here’s a link to the info: http://heycheri.deviantart.com/journal/34827715/).
But anyhoo!
Enough talk about work.
Let’s ogle the haul!
First, the makeup. ;D
This is the Sigma Makeup Professional Premium 15 Brush Kit! The main reason I wanted this was for the duo fiber blush brush (since Temptalia mentioned how it’s an exact duplicate of the MAC version of it), as well as for the short handled huge powder brush on the left! This roll came packaged extremely well, and even came with a mini 217! :D WOO! I already have one already, but whatever — you can never have too many makeup brushes! … Or actually, maybe you can. -_-” I have HELLA! OMFG!
I also picked up this Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer in the color “Nude”, and it’s pretty nice! :D To get more coverage, you just have to apply another layer of it. But I mainly wanted this because I’ve been wearing less and less foundation, and I just want my skin to breathe! It has SPF 20 in it which is great for sun protection, but I’ve been wearing it with my own SPF anyways (that Olay Regenerist stuff that I love). It has a hefty pricetag of about $42, but it comes with a miniature travel sized version of it, a small face primer sample, and a sample of their face polish as well, so I’m guessing you’re actually paying for everything that comes with purchasing it new and not just the tinted moisturizer itself? Hmmm … Also, my skin is amazing lately, btw. XD
This is Chanel’s Tan De Soleil Bronzing Makeup Base!! I freaking love it. I apply it with a MAC 187 brush to get it nice and blended (it’s a cream bronzer), and then apply blush over it, then tone it down a little with my current favorite setting powder! :-X Isn’t it purdy?! It smells a little perfumey though, so whatever. >_>; Not really into that. But it looks gorgeous on the skin!
These Jemma Kidd items were sent in by JK’s PR for me to test out and review (I like almost everything in this image, to be honest). If you’d like me to review these items and give you a complete breakdown complete with swatches etc, please just ask in the comments and I will do so! Or if you’d simply like to win some products by Jemma Kidd, head to their website and let me know what you’re interested in and I will set something up with their PR for you makeup junkies! Woot.
These makeup products were sent to me by Physician’s Formula also to do a review on. And, like the Jemma Kidd items above, I liked most of these items as well (but just lemme know if you’d like me to do a review and I will break it all down for you in another blog!). Also, I’m able to run a contest with Physician’s Formula too, so if you’d like me to get on the ball with that, just let me know and I will set it up! Yaaay. I rule.
This awesome 120 Pro Eyeshadow Palette was sent to me by Sedona Lace! I swatched it a bit on my finger to give you an idea of the color payoff/consistency (amazing, btw), but if you’d like a full review + tutorial, let me know. I’m also probably able to run a contest with them as well, but for now? If you’d like to pick up this palette, just use the code “heycheri” during checkout and it will get you $4 off. ;-D You’re welcome. XD
LMFAO! Someone sent me a Shakeweight as a gag gift for my birthday. Hahahaha. Gawd. I tried it, btw, and it does work! I mean, it makes my arms tired and I can feel the strain, so yeah, I would say it definitely does what it needs to do. But I can’t get over the fact that it feels like I’m jerking someone off whenever I mess with it, hahaha! I let my mom have it (which is pretty gross, now that I think about it), but she got a kick out of the DVD it comes with. Lol.
Now onto the shoooooes!! WOOOOOOOOOO! Hahahaha.
I also received these freakin amazing GUESS by Marciano Boots in a size 5.5! Omfg, they’re amazing. Soft leather, fits my calf perfectly, and basically makes it look like I’m out to do business! XD They’re “fuck me” boots that I looooove, wow.
Fantastic Jessica Simpson Sandals! What more can I say about these except that they’re awesome? ;x I wear these with summer dresses, or with denim when I’m doing quick errands and running around getting shit done. Eheheh.
You have no effing idea how in love I am with these Jessica Simpson Peeptoe Booties!! They are so freaking gorgeous on my foot. Lmao. And I know I say this about all of the shoes I get, but c’mon man. I have good taste. XD What can I say?! These are gorg just on their own with a denim skirt to be casual!
Okay, so I have to take a break from “fuckme” heels every once in a while, right? Which is why I picked out these hot Betsey Johnson slides! They’re perfect to wear with a white dress or with any sort of nude-colored ensemble that you’d like to dress up, and the leopard print sole is so effing cute! Haha. Like every time you take a step and lift your foot, someone will spot that leopard print! Yes, I think about these things. Lol. Even the bottom has this little heart shaped pattern embellishment so that you leave the cutest footprints, hahaha!
These nude Jessica Simpson Platform Sandals just rock my world. Omg. I’ve been wearing them with dresses, with denim, with skirts, with everything! And I know they look uncomfortable, but on my foot?! No way. They fit just right and aren’t loose, never slip off — I freaking love them! I resist the urge to put them on every day, hahaha. They come in other colors, obv, but I’ve been on a real “wooden heel” kick lately since Summer’s such a nice, earthy season.
Again on the wooden heel kick, this is a set of Jessica Simpson Platform Sandals that I’m also in looove with! They’re super neutral, so I can wear them with just about anything thanks to the cute snake print. And like everything else Jessica Simpson that I own, they are super comfy! I’ve been wearing them on dates to the movies with bootcut jeans. :D Heheheh.
Okay. I know. I know it might seem like I own a lot of Jessica Simpson shit, but what can I say?! The woman makes amazing shoes! Check out these Wedge Sandals, for instance. My feet look so damn cute in these! Omfg. It’s basically a “bare all” kinda shoe, so you get to show off a lot even when you’re wearing jeans. And hey. We all know I know about feet lookin smexy. ;D Lmao. I know whatsup! Rofl.
Then there are these badass Jessica Simpson Cage Heels that I effing loooove! Aren’t they amazing?! I’ve only worn them once so far, but still. Obviously I have millions of shoe choices, hahaha, I can’t wear them all the time. But I would if I could! I like to wear these with skinny jeans (like the skin-tight kind), or leggings, or even on their own with a cute mini dress! They’re freakin fantastiiiiic! AAAHHHHH!! I got so many compliments on these when I was walking around — even the lady at Taco Bell during a drunken midnight run with my girlfriends stopped me to compliment my shoes. Lmao. Sweet.
But okay, okay. Enough shoes. Check this out:
This is a gorgeous houndstooth jacket from Guess (my favorite brand to wear, as we all know, since they consistently make clothes that I am effing in love with) is super itchy on the outside, so I definitely won’t be hugging people while I wear it, lmao. But it’s sooo soft and luxurious on the inside! And it just looks rich, right?! XD You know what I’m talking about?! I haven’t worn it yet, but I plan to wear it over dresses rather than as a casual piece. I’ve never assosciated houndstooth with casual items anyways.
Guess also makes the best accessories, like this amazing leather and chain belt!! I’ll be using this to accent solid dresses and drape low on the hips, or as a nice hip topper for leggings that I wear as pants (I love accessorizing leggings with sparkly shit, haha).
Then this gorgeous Teal Betsey Johnson Cross-Body Ruffle Purse is amaaaazing! It comes in a million different colors, but I settled on teal. Heheh. The chain detailing gives it a “night out” kinda look. Not to mention the leather is just hot! The inside detailing is all black leopard print too. Way cute!
And then of course, we have my baby! The Wacom Intuos 4 Tablet! OMGGG! So amazing! This is what I’ve been doing all of my comics with that you guys’ve been seeing (as well as my drawings), and what I’ll be designing all of your comissions with! Once again, if you want to order some custom art, check out the link here: http://heycheri.deviantart.com/journal/34827715/! I’m so happy with this tablet! Size small was perfect for me, so thank you to Mylene on twitter for helping me figure out what to get! Chatting with you really pointed me in the right direction. You rule!
On the left is the crappy little business phone that my company got for me to tide me over until we get settled with an iPhone 4, haha! I like to pretend it’s a Blackberry. ;-D They also got me a headset to use with it, but I have no idea where the hell I put that thing. On the right is my gorgeous, elegant, beautiful iPhone 3Gs! :D Isn’t it purdy?! I really like the design 10x more than the iPhone 4 (which is why I chose not to upgrade), and while I normally have elaborate cases on it, I’ve been donning my cell without a case lately! I really like how slim and sleek it is sans case! :D Although I will definitely throw a case on it before I head out to, say, the bar or something (just because who knows if I’ll drop it, y’know?!).
Anyways. I’m sure I have tons more shit that I’ve received just laying around here somewhere, but I can’t be arsed to find it all or gather it all together. XD So just be happy with what I’m showing you now, kay?
Back to work. Hehehe.
XOXO Cheri XOXO
