you may remember me telling you that for our valentine’s date this year, we went to an amazing second hand store and ended up getting a little modern foot stool as well as a coffee table. well, we finally got around to picking them up and they have joined us in our home. they are a bit pre-loved but that is they way we like it. i think they will be here to stay for years to come. 

clean up – make up

for as long as i can remember my makeup has been a bit of a mess to say the least. it’s constantly piled all over our vanity {which drives husband nuts}. i decided to finally get it organized even though this may not be the “traditional” definition of organized. i like to be able to see all my makeup and have it placed almost like a store or little boutique would {it makes it more fun to put on}. now all the clutter will fit nicely underneath the sink in the cupboard and drawer, plus i will be able to see what i’m looking for.

most of the trinkets used for organization were purchased from target , with the exceptions of: the mug with an “s” and red bowl purchased from anthropologie, the mercury glass container from west elm, and the pink and white polk-a-dot bowl from the paisley pomegranate.

this past weekend we went to my mom’s house for an oscar awards party night. we always dress in our nicest sweats while we poke fun at some of the actors and actresses outfits and “ooh and ah!” at others {a bit hypocritical of us i know}. every year we have the most delicious treats that my mom has made, usually consisting of: chocolate fondu, chips with home-made salsa, bread with spinach artichoke dip, bubbly water with freshly cut limes, and specialty meats and cheeses. we ate until our tummies were about to pop, kramer almost couldn’t stand not being able to just devour it all himself {poor little guy}. it was a very fun delicious evening and i can hardly wait until the next academy awards. how were your nights at the oscars?

are you super?

have you heard about super products? i hadn’t until a couple days ago when i read a review on the bleubird blog. i have been looking for a couple of products to clean my face in the morning because my current nightly routine seems to be a bit drying when using it twice a day. i decided to give it a try and chose a couple of products that sounded good for my skin type.  
the super products i ordered came today and i was immediately sold. they come in the sweetest little glass bottles and the labels are so lovely. i have only used them once so far, but like how they made my skin feel. they weren’t to drying and smelled nice, without being overpowering {i hate when i feel like i’m putting perfume on my face}. as i use them more i will let you know how they continue to work but so far would definitely recommend them!

have a super weekend!
