FUNTABULOUS


Owen and I ventured to the mall yesterday with my friend Kerri and her kids. Big mistake. The mall. I can't go in the mall. I especially can't go into my favorite stores. I want everything. Why is it that when I go to the mall I feel so incredibly outdated and in dire need of everything from new shirts, jeans, jackets, boots, down to the earrings and necklaces to match? I want it all. I have no money. I am going to be strong. I am going to help my girlfriend pick out her new jeans and that's it. No monkey business.
Well, that job's a cinch and were finished in no time. I mean when you're six feet and slimmer than any runway model, everything looks great. Lucky, lucky, lucky girl. But there they are staring at me. A pair of perfect black, suede boots. I could wear em with jeans. I could wear em with skirts. They have a subtle hill to give this short girl a boost, but they're not so high I'll sprain an ankle or look a mess just trying to walk in em. I want em. I need em. I hold back.
I HOLD BACK!
Then Kerri shows me a cardigan I can't pass up. I've been needing this simple piece for my wardrobe. It's under $30. Sold! I get out of the store with one cardigan, a minor miracle for me, oh, and I did get some earrings to match. That's it, really! Done...
NO SPLURGING!
We're on our way out...heading towards our exit. We see MAC. Oh, not MAC. Kerri is the MAC queen. She knows every eye shadow, lip liner, blush, lip gloss color and perfect blend and wears it all like a pro. She shows me the new Dazzleglass lip gloss.
THE DAZZLEGLASS LIPGLOSS!
This stuff is AMAZING! It comes packaged in a beautiful, long, glass tube. It sparkles and glitters like no other lip gloss I've ever seen. It looks spectacular. My eyes go immediately to Funtabulous, a perfect shade of purplish, flecks of blue, and pink. I have to have it. I want it. I need it.
I........DON'T HOLD BACK!
I buy it, apply it, and am in LOVE. It truly is FUNTABULOUS. I am so excited about this purchase I have to blog about it. I have to share. This stuff is the bomb! Does anyone get this excited over a new glass tube of lipgloss? I bet not. I am suddenly embarrassed.
Oh, it's becoming quite apparent......
THIS GIRL NEEDS A LIFE!
