Spring is at my door (and could be at yours!)

While old man winter can't seem to just let this year go (we woke up to a fresh layer of snow this morning), I am over it and getting on with spring, whether the weather agrees or not.

I went out shopping with my mom last week, something I hadn't done in quite sometime, and enjoyed getting to pick up some new things for the coming months, and I thought I would share some of my favorites for spring with you.

NARS new Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil

I picked out New Lover for myself. 

While the colors may seem intense, they go on very sheer and just give your lips a nice glossy look. It's also not one of those overly-sticky glossy feelings either, which are always a bad thing.

I had been painting my nails all sorts of dark shades during winter. Browns, reds, grays, well, you get the idea. I was ready to break out the pastels and Revlon has some of the prettiest shades for spring. 

The one on the left is Gum Drop (and was scored at CVS for an awesome deal this week) and the one on the right is Minted and the color that I am currently wearing. 

I am a self-admitted junky when it comes to Bath and Body Works. I only go in when there is a really good sale, like buy 3 get 3 free, but I'll usually make a couple trips. While I love the scents I get there, I can't help but feel like Victoria's Secret doesn't get much love for their scents, and they have one of my all time favorites, especially for spring. 

While Bath and Body can be a little heavy on the "fruit" or "flower" smell in their scents, this is just the right mixture of floral and is very light and delicate smelling. It is from their Secret Moments collection and is called Girls Night. It is also usually offered for a really good deal, sometimes even better than the deals at Bath and Body, and I am all about the deals. 

Circling back around to NARS, I also picked up a new duo eyeshadow from them that I really wasn't sure about at first.

The color is called Sugarland and it is more purple in person, which made me a little nervous. I had been told that purple is a good color for bringing out blue eyes, though, and figured I would give it a go. I LOVE it! It is sheer enough so it doesn't look I walked straight out of 1987 (not that I would be complaining) and it really does bring out my eyes more. 

The last thing I want to share I don't actually have yet. I've made several hints that they would make a nice gift for my birthday at the end of the month, but I might just have to snag them up before than as a treat to myself. I'm not sure I can wait!

They are Sperry Top-Siders 'Angelfish' in gold and I am in love. They actually look more silver in person. I thought they would be the perfect fun pair of shoes for spring.

Now, that you have gone through this list with me, I have something for you! I will be giving away some of my favorite things for spring! Here is what you will win:

- a bottle of Revlon Minted and Gum Drop.

- a bottle of Girls Night body lotion for the Victoria's Secret 'Secret Moments' collection.

- a $25 gift card to Sephora to get one of the NARS Velvet Gloss Lip Pencils, one of the eye duos, or maybe something else fun!

Peace out *g*
