I am going to Miami today! Last week I got an offer to go to Miami for a Nokia event and it just so happens Blogher Food is there this weekend and I’ll have friends in town too – so I couldn’t turn it down!
But, I am very sad that I’m missing a race I planned on doing. Seriously – you know you’re addicted to running when you consider turning down a trip to Florida to pay to RUN in 100 degree weather.
I had a bunch of errands to run and a project to finish before Friday so I’ve been a little MIA this week. I think I’m all set now though. Maybe.
I even made time to get my nails done. I was going between a few colors and this one won on the name.
My Make Up Must Haves
One of my errands included finally getting duplicates of my favorite make-up essentials for my purse. I always grab these things to throw in my purse when I leave the house so I’m hoping this will help prevent me from losing/forgetting them.
I got a second eyelash curler / stila liquid eyeliner / random concealer that is new / stila white liner / stila stingray liner and a new-to-me inner liner from tarte.
Now I’m packing it up!
The full scene:
In honor of Vegas, check out this Cat’s Reaction to a Dog Attacking a Boy…
And now I better wrap it up and head off to the airport! It’s a long way to Miami so I bought Gillian Flynn’s Dark Places to read on the plane. I’ve read Shattered Objects and Gone Girl already and loved them!
Question: If you could only use one piece of make-up what would it be?
Guys: Red Lipstick – LOVE it or HATE it?
I love red lipstick! My makeup must have is mascara- I have zero eyelashes and look like I’m dead without it.
My main piece of makeup is mascara, I have blonde lashes so without it, it looks like I don’t has lashes
Have a great time! I’m going to say eye liner. I love me some eye liner 🙂
Miami! My fave US city. Must haves….bikini and eye lash curler.. Enjoy!
Awe such a bummer you have to miss BTR, it’s gonna be a party – a hot sticky party… Have a great trip!
I’m getting more into makeup these days so that’s a super hard decision. I think lipstick would be my answer but blush and mascara are veeeerrrryyy close behind.
Pretty nail color! I like that picture with what looks like pixie dust. Which app is it?
Stilla makes great products. As long as I have my mascara and my face wash then I’m all set.
Eyebrow filler. Eyebrows frame your whole face!
What a blast – have fun! Red lipstick – for sure! And mascara would be mine – my lashes are so light.
I’d be disappointed in missing the run too…except for the 100+ degree weather. That’s when you say “this is why it’s meant that I go to FL instead” and you hop that freaking plane, girlfran! 😉
Oh I have to have mascara! What is the name of that polish? I love OPI, and have been looking for a shade like that! Very pretty! HVe fun in Miami!
I can’t contribute. But creature of habit, I needed to at least get my lunch time date on. Say hi to LeBron! Safe be da journey chica!
I thought you were going to say Sarasota dammit! Oh well, have a blast in Miami, it’s breezy and not too hot! 🙂
Mascara! I could go without anything else, but I do love mascara.
That video is scary – cool cat though!
Blush! I am am incredibly pale, so a little color on my cheeks is a must!
OT: If you happen to be Miami Beach/South Beach area check out Le Sandwicherie!!! AMAZING sandwiches with loads and loads of fabulous fresh veggies!! They also have smoothies 🙂 It’s a dive…you just walk up and place your order and can eat on little stools or take it to go.
I’m leaving miami this weekend to head up and see my bestie in Orlando. Have a good time in my town! And I love the stila liners. I just discovered them and I’m addicted. I have stingray, navy and a dark brown too. Let us know how the tarte one is.
I will have to try them out!
Omg that video! So scary that the dog randomly attacked the boy. That’s amazing that the cat just pounced. Just wow.
And I would pick eye liner!
Black/brown eyeliner. I even wear it to the gym.
I can’t live without mascara! I have such thin lashes so I can’t go without it!
Have fun in Miami!!
Liquid Eyeliner in Plum….it’s my favorite secret to accentuate my hazel eyes!
I’m only a fan of red lipstick if it’s more of a brick red (brownish red) I don’t look good in candy apple red and frankly wouldn’t want that much attention drawn to my lips.
safe travels. Miami won’t be much of an escape from the heat. Sorry you’re missing a race but this sounds like more fun =)
So jelly you had time to get your nails done in that cute cute color! I have been really watching my spending, so that’s meant not as much money to do nails. ::sigh:: this being a grownup thing is really really annoying sometimes!
it is VERY annoying being a real adult with real bills -_-
Mascara! Actually, that’s all the makeup I wear unless I’m going somewhere fancy. I’ve never gotten into the whole makeup thing probably has something to do with me not be that creative.
I can’t go anywhere without my mascara that is for sure! I love that video – CAT PRIDE!!
Have an awesome time!! Where do you shop for makeup? Ulta just opened up in my town and I’m super excited to go check it out!
I go to Ulta (then I leave poor), I also go to Target a lot 🙂
aww boo I almost when to Blogher too bad! Have fun!!! say hello to my city!
Awww! We need to plan these things out 🙂
Have a great trip! Mascara is a must for me! I don’t curl my lashes, but I am sure it would make a huge difference.
I could not live without mascara! I, too, am a redhead, and with my red eyelashes, I feel like a complete blank canvas without mascara.
I’m not a fan of red lipstick for myself, but I think some women can pull it off. Have fun in Miami!
Seriously I feel so ‘washed out’ (as my mom says) without anything.
Can I get a combo- mascara on one end, eyeliner on the other? haha
Cheater!
I am with you on this one!!
Mascara for sure!
MASCARA!
Have fun! I still need to read Dark Places… it’s on my list. Oh, and I teared up watching / reading about that cat hero. Lame cat lady over here.
I know it’s super awesome of that cat!!! Love it.
I loved it too!
