OMGmusthave...

I've LOVED the last two years of summer collections by Zoya. 2010 was the year of the Sparkle collection which I have four of (and will get a fifth- the purple one, Mimi.) It included Charla (of ten-dupe fame) the aqua-delicious hight of gorgeousness. In 2011, Zoya did the Sunshine collection of gold-shimmer infused colors. I have Rica (perfect, sparkly coral) and Faye (pinky-purple enigma). Even the ones I wouldn't wear, I love to look at in swatch picks. And I'm beyond excited to see...


Tracie looks very close to Sinful Colors Olympia which I just got but I'm hating the formula so I might have to get the Zoya instead. AND ZUZA?? If it's not my next most-byootyfull-polish-in-the-entire-world-ever I'll be really surprised. Can.Not.Wait.

I'm the Noxzema Girl...

Not really, but those commercials were so silly when I was growing up! Anyway, I really have started using good ol' Noxzema and it's reputation is deserved. It rocks. My insane skin has become a lot less pore-rific yet not grown scales from overdrying. I've had some minor purging pimples but it's not too scary. Sometimes the classic/no-gimmick products are the best. (If also the stinkiest and least-interestingly packaged.)

aaaaiiiieeee!

My uniform...

*ok, I don't wear converse, but if my feet wouldn't destroy them I would!

MOAR heels...

Another pair I've loved for ages are mine now, by Kiss & Tell...


OMG they look like a 70's couch! They're satin and super-comfy. I'm so glad I finally grabbed them!

Real, genuine Kork-Ease...

After reading lots of reviews about their quality and comfort I finally splurged and got the real deal. Plus, my knock-off pair is not in nice shape. Mr. BFF had to put his manly skills to work repairing a strap and they're just very stained and ooky. They're around six years old though so no complaints! Anyway I got the Bette style...

They do indeed have a nicely squishy footbed and have the overall no-frills-bordering-on-old-lady-comfort-shoe look that I adore. The only drawback is the toe-straps being VERY tight. I almost returned them, but after reading more reviews online, I've decided they're likely to stretch. In fact, I've been wearing them for a few hours and they already feel better. Or my toes have gone blissfully numb. (But whatevs, they're supah cyoooooot! LOL)

New heels....

Wheeeee! I don't wear heels in the winter because being a pedestrian in the Pacific NW makes them too impractical even for me. Nor have I really liked what was available for a couple of years. So now that footwear fashion is fun for me again...!
