FOTD, Nails, Casual Outfit: A bit of red with a deal at Winners



I don't post a whole lot of "deals" that I manage to score at stores because Dale very much looks after me and spoils me with things. But I'll try to share with you any deals I can score!

In Canada we have a store called Winners and if you have time (and patience) to sift through racks and shelves, you can often find a great deal. 
Winners is sort of like Marshalls - which, I am happy to say, has arrived in Canada. 
Oh yeahhh! 

So look what I found at Winners the other week which I am happy about. 
I bought these using one of the gift certificates Dale got for me from Winners :) Such a sweetheart!





I loved the marked creasings and fades on these!



I love the black sequins on the back pockets of the jeans and there's even a bit of sequins on the front pockets too. They blend in really well since the jeans are a dark wash.




Yay! $16 for jeans?! I couldn't believe it LOL 
And I like how they look. Plus they are comfortable and the denim is soft. 
The brand of jeans is Almost Famous. I have not heard of this brand but these look better (and feel better) than a couple of my $180+ CDN pair of jeans. 

Have you heard of the brand Almost Famous Clothing?


So here's yesterday's FOTD, OOTD (with the new jeans) & Mani....a bit of red. 
Wore this casual outfit to meet clients









Red Checkered Shirt is from Forever21
Jeans are by Almost Famous
Heels are from Guess 







French manicured nails are by Revlon 
(the "medium length" nails are more conservative with Revlon - read, shorter) 

Soooo, I'm going to meet Dale today at the airport!! :) 
Gosh we are so last minute LOL We're still flying to New York tomorrow, however he might change our flight to stay one extra day in New York city...and during this weekend, we might make an overnight trip to Atlantic City New Jersey. I kind of like last minute changes - makes it more exciting!
 I'll take lots of pictures and share with you later :)

Have you scored any shopping deals recently??

OOTN & FOTN

It was so nice to catch up with friends on Friday night (thanks Rob!)  ;) 

We went to a club called Bar244
I really liked the music - lots of dance music! All drinks are cheap at $3-$4. I think the only turn off for me was the young crowd - it felt like a throwback to high school ten years ago. Okay, that would be cool only if I was ten years younger LOL 
Ah well, still had a fab time with friends and that's what counts :)

I haven't done an OOTN and FOTN post in a while so here is one for you (now you know why I was late ten minutes Rob haha)




I coloured my own hair earlier this week with L'oreal Feria #45 Deep Bronzed Brown.
If I stay within 1-2 shades of my natural hair colour, L'oreal Feria hair colour has never let me down. And even though my hair is a long length, I only need one Feria box dye

The eye shadow I have on is mainly MAC Nehru which I did a post on a few days ago here
The lashes I have on are my favourite pair! It's my trusty Ardell 107s and I've done a post on them here 





I layered two necklaces: one is Hello Kitty and the other is from Charlotte Russe 




I wore the Guess Kayla dress, which I'm not surprised to see they are sold out of
My purse is Steve Madden (I loveee the studs on this bag)
My heels are the Patent Uber Covered Platform Pump in Nude by Charlotte Russe (patent + nude + high heel = love at first sight for me! I have a shoe haul post coming up by the way)





These are the side slits in the Guess Kayla Dress




And these are all the accessories I had on last night :)
Not mentioned already is the Charlotte Russe bracelet to the far left.
The Bebe cuff bracelet (under the high heels) 
Both rings are from Forever21
My watch is from Guess


Do you like seeing these type of posts? 
If so, I will try to do them more often....

And how is your weekend coming along? :)

FOTD & Swatch: MAC Nehru eye shadow



I've had MAC Nehru eye shadow for a couple of weeks and it's been a staple for me :) That's saying a lot since I'm quite particular when it comes to eye shadows.


MAC Nehru eye shadow in the pot

This is a matte finish and although it looks like a regular black matte shadow, there is a blue-gray tinge to it that I love. If you love a smokey eye, I highly recommend checking out this shade

You can definitely build up the depth of colour with this one or use it lightly

Here is a quick swatch of the colour (one swipe)

And here's a look with me using the eye shadow
