Random topic 1: Product review
Let me tell you about a product I'm totally digging. This can also be called "reasons Sephora is better than Ulta" haha... So, I got sample of the Urban Decay All Nighter from one of my Sephora perks awhile ago. I rarely used it b/c I was like "Whatever. Makeup setting spray my @ss... total rip off." But, then I noticed my makeup stayed on longer with it... a LOT longer... and it didn't run in the heat or anything. Hmm... maybe this product isn't a big rip off after all. So, I started using my sample size...and then it was gone! Agh! (It actually lasted quite awhile for a sample size). I had to have more. I got in my car and drove to the nearest beauty store that carries it, Ulta. And guess what.. they were out. And the girl looked really confused when I asked her to check if they had more. So, I went back on Sunday. Still out. Fine, fine... Long story short, I ended up at Sephora on a special trip to purchase. The only Sephora we have is kinda farther from my house...and in the mall.. so you KNOW I was wanting this. And they were NOT out! YAY!

Tomorrow, some girl friends and I are getting together for a girls night and I suggested fall CRAFTS! I have no idea what my deal is lately, but I have been a fall decor loving fool. I want it. Lots of it. I want to make stuff! We opted to prettify some pumpkins! I know you've all seen the ones on pinterest lately- So many options! I'll have to show you mine when I'm done! Wouldn't you be interested to see what kind of spike crafting has seen since pinterest gained popularity? I would.
Not making these tomorrow, but might give em a shot with some other pumpkins this weekend! How adorable, right?!
Random topic 3: I have a scarf obsession:
Another pinterest find (and totally unrelated to Halloween) = this FANTASTIC Anthropologie scarf! I have been wanting a light pink/dusty rose colored scarf FOR.EVER. I seem to want one every season and can't find one I like. :( And this one even has ruffles, too! I.want.it.
Random topic 4: Game of Thrones.
I've been reading the book for a little while now, but hadn't ever seen the show. I saw the show for the first time this weekend. And I'll probably watch the whole first season at some point, but....well.. I think I like the book better. *shrugs* Isn't that always the case. *le sigh*
So, yeah.. that was a totally and completely random post. Thanks for sticking with my Monday spazzy brain.
Hey by the way.. did you follow the Amanda Kn0x stuff at all? I was refreshing my screen over and over for about 10 min waiting for her verdict this afternoon. I am SO happy the conviction was overturned! I've spent entirely too much some time reviewing all the evidence available to us stalkers readers, and man... I just really believe she is innocent. If you disagree, that's okay, but I was pleased with today's result. If she writes a tell-all book about how she did it, I'll eat my words, but whatever. And on that note, I've seen a lot of people saying things like "Great. Now she'll get to make billions in her book and interviews." Um.. if she really is innocent, GOOD FOR HER. I mean, helllllo.. If I'd been in some prison in another country for FOUR YEARS for something I didn't do, you'd better believe I'd be writing a book. I mean... hell...I write about fall crafts and pinterest, so you KNOW I'd TOTALLY write a book if I were her.. haha.. I'm just saying.

jackie girl all of your pictures must not of uploaded right they all show the error sign so I can't see all the things you talked about in your blog!! :(
OK I take the comment back either you fixed it asap or they just decided now to load on google chrome. lol I LOVE that scarf too!
I've usually preferred Ulta over Sephora mainly because every time I set foot in Sephora it is a madhouse AND it's at the mall so I try to avoid it in general haha. Glad you could finally find what you were looking for though!
Halloween decor is so much fun! I love the pumpkins and spiders!! How adorable! I also agree with you about Amanda Knox - I'd probably be writing a book too!!
So with you on Amanda Knox. For those who aren't convicted and are obviously guilty to SOME degree, books and interviews annoy me. But someone who has experienced tragedy just by being in the wrong place at the wrong time? Go for it! I believe she is innocent to, and I was glad to see her go free. I hope te family of the victim finds peace though, I know they must be devastated.
I'm very intrigued by this make-up product. I'm all about making my make-up stay on longer and use an eye primer, but had no idea this existed.
I'm obsessed with All Nighter too :) except for this morning when I sprayed it on my brushes becuase I thought it was my brush cleaner!!! I'm going to check out that book--I need something non law school for fall break.
Hope you're having the BEST week. oxo
LOVE all nighter! they actually make a day one too, but I havent tried that yet. i think i usually use about 3 sprays on my face.
great...another thing to add to my must try beauty list. haha
i can't wait to see how your crafts turn out! please post some pictures:)
I am with ya on the Amanda Knox thing...I was glued to it! So interesting. I am so happy for her but I must say I was truly surprised. I just figured being a foreign person they would just punish her either way.
I must get the all nighter!!! Dying to try it! Also, can't wait to see your crafts!!! So fun!!
Just getting started on the first Game of Thrones book, so glad to hear you like it! I haven't seen the show at all, either, but I hear it's steamy. ;-) Also TOTALLY with you on Amanda Knox. Thank God she's out!
I must try that make up spray! When I leave the house I'm out all day and by the end of the day my make up is kinda... gone. Do you spray it on before you apply all your make up?
I didn't follow the case but she seems like she was innocent.
I'm so glad you blogged about the Urban Decay All Nighter, cause now I'm definitely going to try it! I've been wanting a makeup setting spray, and now you've convinced me this is the one to get (plus, Urban Decay's eyeshadow primer is the best). I love Sephora with all my heart! It's scary how much money I've spent there over the years. :(
Cute crafts!! I'm not on pinterest, but I can see the appeal since there are all kinds of fun ideas like this!
xoxoxo
