Mani/Purse match up

I went to my friend's shoe store, Corner Spot, to cheat on DSW and get myself a nice, warm pair of snow boot for the last impending snow storm the northeast had. 

At first, did not see the boots I wanted and saw this beauty behind the counter, am not big of purses but when I see one I like, and if am due for a treat, I GET! 

Low price tag, great look, no name, I want! 

and then when I first rocked it, I rocked it with a matching mani (somewhat) 

I thought I was cool! and yes, I rocked this look :) 

Beautiful studs and bling and pattern. 

zipper to keep closed so your valuables don't go flying out. 

After making this purchase, I did spot a pair of Nike snow boots but it was clear where the priorities were :) 

What do you think?

 

Zoya and Jessica Cosmetics dupes?

I am really liking these dupe posts... I cannot accept the fact that two of my favorite brands will give us the same color.  And here is another close call.

Swatched, Jessica has more of a bluish tint while Zoya stays purple.  :) 

Pheeew... am happy to report that these two shades, although very close, are not the same,.. THEY ARE SIMILAR!

One Coat

Two Coats

 

What do you think??

Zoya and Jessica Cosmetics: Dupes??

One thing I cannot allow is someone telling me I have two of the same nail polish colors.  They're never the same, they may be similar but NEVER the same... although I must admit this one was a very close one. 

Jessica Cosmetics and Zoya: Two of my very favorite brands couldnt possibly have dupes.  Let's take a look.

Opening night by Jessica and Mason by Zoya.  Bottles are offly close 

The image below was a flipped image so that they could be right below its corresponding name.

I swatched them side by side and although they very close, I'd stand by my "they are similar" opinion,.  Jessica has a darker tint of magenta where Zoya stays just a hue below in the pink family. 

Offly close... what do you think???

** press sample**

As part of a product review, I received a pair of black and white kitty slippers www.bunnyslippers.com.

They have the cutest assortment of animal slippers... getting black slippers in a household with a white cat where everything is instantly covered in cat is not the best idea... but they're sooooo cute and they are all sooo cute and I didnt know which ones to pick so I went with cats.

I figured my babies will like them and they sure did!!!!!!

I wish this picture would have been focused but i rather show you a blur than not show you at all... Now I have FOUR!!! black and white kitties... two on my feet... one at the end of my bed (while I sleep) and one on the right side of my blog!!!! check him out by the way.. he's our mascot.

and now I know I cannot leave them unattended.   by them I mean the cats and the slippers.

Maya has always have the tendency to walk besides me or in between my legs... now it's a big cat-party..... am one cat shy from being the crazy cat lady from my block! ^_^

You have to check out the full menu of animal slippers... including microwavable slippers, sock slippers, paw slippers and more featuring animals and cartoon ccharacters... at varying prices for children and adults.  Nothing like coming home from work, climbing off the high heels and onto these purrfect comfort slippers.

Sally Hansen Triple Shine

**press sample**

Spring is springing upon us and Sally Hansen is ready... Today I bring you four more of the Sally Hansen Triple Shine.  Trend-setting colors 

The formula is super duper high shine (no topper needed for ultimate gloss) and the help of its gloss-tech brush, application is a breeze.  Goes on smoothly and evenly with less strokes. 

I first showed you Triple Shine colors HERE and I still don't understand the double lid but still in love with the formula. 

First up is Clam Up.  A pearlescent pinkish... very sheer.  Great alone or layered.

or "frenched"

Reef Raf is up next and is my absolute favorite (so far)....  I am in love (although my love for nail polish is a bit promiscuous) 

This coral-hot pink is creamy and shiny... Triple-shiny seen below under different lighting

and here's Clam Up layered over Reef Raf... beach 

Next up is Seanic... this is a glitter polish in a clear base.   I used Dive In as undies and white on the accent nail.  All micro glitters ocean themed (i'd say)

and lastly, Sparkling Water.   A deep ocean algae green with gorgeous shimmer... seen in two coats... this one could use 3, yet loveable. 

These babies can be bought virtually everywhere...  Sally Hansen is everywhere. 

:) 

Which one if your favorite???
