I always stop for vibrant pinks and reds. 🙂
I’m at the mall right now. Just finished a late lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and wanted the first day of the year to be filled with fun things, as in malls and makeup.
My mom gave me a Nordstrom gift certificate for Christmas. Not sure what I’m gonna do with it yet, but I’m having fun looking for ideas.
Like maybe Bobbi Brown’s new Pink & Red Collection.
It’s barely even January, and this collection’s already channeling Valentine’s Day!
I guess you can never be too early (hint, hint, El Hub)…
Bobbi’s got some pieces here for cheeks, lips and nails, divided into pink products and red products.
Makes it easy for significant others to give gifts. Just send your partner to the counter with instructions like, “You can get me all the pink (or red) stuff.”
Here — hold my purse while I snap some pics with my phone.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Looks really pretty that’s for sure! Ya gotta love a good red and pink collection!
Hi Tracy,
Yes! So vibrant. How was your first day of 2013?
Good! I made homemade beef stew, sweet potato rolls and a yeasted blueberry coffee cake! 🙂 And now I’m tired haha!
GURL, I wish you could send me some of those sweet potato rolls via the interwebz! They sound delicious. 🙂
You’ll be happy to know I spent last night counting down with the The Walking Dead marathon.
Ooo I like the pink polish! Can you tell us where your jacket is from?
Hi Lindsay,
It’s by Zella. I’ll try to post a pic of the jacket tomorrow. 🙂
The red lipstick looks lovely 🙂
I’m still on the hunt for my perfect red, so I will definitely be checking this one out! 😀
Hi Sillylilacs,
There’s lots of great reds out there! Are you looking for a lipstick or a gloss?
Yes, there certainly are! 🙂 I’m looking for a lipstick! I have a few reds that I like, but not my magical holy grail red yet 😀
Sounds like your first day of 2013 was pretty fun! I have the flu, so I’ll have to live vicariously through you today!
Hi Erin,
I hope you feel better soon. 🙂 Take care of yourself!
I went to Nordstrom yesterday to similarly spend a Christmas gift card and I saw some of the Kevyn Aucoin line for the first time. We haven’t had any of his line here before; I was so excited…probably a little too excited. 🙂
Hi Tiffanie,
The Sephora in my town used to carry his line. I never picked anything up, but I remember the concealers being really exceptional!
Did you end up getting anything from Nordie’s?
I actually got a concealer! It’s amazing. I wore it all day with solid coverage and no creasing. I also got an eyeshadow from the line as well. It’s matte and just a shade darker than my skin.
Oh cool! That’s the one in the pot, right?
Yep. I think it will last me the next 8 years or so!
Oh, I’m so happy to see the Sheer Color Cheek Tints! Love those!
Hi Heidi,
Me too. I think my inner lazy girl let out a WHEEE when I saw ’em, haha.
Happy New Year, btw. 🙂
oooh, new perfume! i love new smellies!
Me too! Have you ever smelled Bobbi’s Beach? Not really a winter scent, but it’s my FAVORITE!
Yes! I’m a proud owner – I feel odd wearing it in winter, but it makes me feel better when there’s snow on the ground! 🙂
KAren, why don’t you do swatches??? I always expect to see some swatches at the end, …and no, nothing..;-(
Hi Virginie,
I try to do swatches when I can.
Happy New year, glad you had fun!
The red nail polish looks awesome!

Happy New Year!
I am a huge fan of Bobbi Brown. I’ll have to check these out.
Awesome. I hope you like it!
Awesome! I didn’t even know this was out! I’ve been avoiding the malls – I can only deal with so many people wandering around aimlessly, taking up space 😛
Monica.
LOVE this collection! I really love that Cherry Lip Gloss!!!!
Hmmmm, is that the mall in Corte Madera? We are in San Bruno, and I feel like trying a new mall before Christmas vacation is over! We also may head to Mill Valley, to walk around that cute outdoor mall there. Any dining recommendation? You always post yummy foodie pictures! 🙂 We eat everything and anything!
I need glasses. I thought the perfume said “Almond Garlic”!
Anyway, never too early for Valentine’s Day, I say!
