Hey guys!
The winter doldrums have officially set in, so that means my online shopping addiction is in full swing.
I know it’s not healthy, but it makes me happy.
You get double the satisfaction…one when you click “purchase” and then again when the item arrives. It’s like a two-fer. A buy one get one kinda deal. And hey, I’m all for a bargain.
So here are a few of my latest obsessions…
A new pretty outfit for my iPhone.
Yes, iPhones need to look cute too and this case from the fun site Cuptakes is adorable!
What is also fun about Cuptakes is it’s a .99 cent app from the iTunes app store. You can get all sorts of cute backgrounds for your phone. And even match your background to your case.
Look at you iPhone all coordinated.
Love mine.
Next up since it’s cold outside your toes will need to be warm.
I posted last time about my black sparkly Uggs.
And I suppose that I am a bit of an Ugg enthusiast, but I got THESE slippers for Christmas from my oldest and dearest friend and they are my most favorite slippers of all times. ALL TIMES. I wear them pretty much nonstop and I urge you, that if you are in the market for a new pair of slippers, invest in these.
Next up, I have dry skin and have been on the search for a really great skin cream for the winter months for pretty much my entire life.
I have tried them all.
Some are good, don’t get me wrong, but I have now found my most favorite face cream ever.
This bareMinerals Skin Purely Nourishing Cream, Dry Skin.
Most people would use it as a night cream, but I need it night and day in the winter months. The price isn’t too bad and I really love it.
No more dry skin for me!
Another skin care product that I love is Kiehls Creme de Corps. I have been using it for almost 14 years, no lie.
It’s nothing fancy, but I will tell you that it is a GREAT. It isn’t sticky, it goes on smooth and you will say adios to dry flaky skin.
I use it mostly in the winter months, because it’s a tad pricey, but it is even great in the summer months too. It’s one of the best all around lotions I have ever used.
Next up, Birchbox.
This is the funnest thing ever.
It’s a little box that gets shipped to you every month full of little beauty samples.
Sounds simple enough, right?
It is.
Here’s the first box that I received…
The day I receive mine in the mail is super exciting! Every month it’s something a little different and you never know what’s going to be inside!
You can sign up for a subscription or go month by month.
Basically it works out to be $10 month.
I love the idea so much I got 3 of my friends subscriptions for Christmas.
I’m all into owls right now, as is the rest of the Pinterest community. Which is kinda weird because I loathe birds. The flying, the swooping, the pecking…not a fan.
But for some reason owls are different. I have never claimed to make sense.
I found these adorable necklaces that are sold on Etsy and they are $12.99!
There are a bunch of different styles.
So cute!
Totally loving this mascara right now. It’s Loreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes.
I am a mascara whore. It’s true, I accept it. I try them all and this one is my newest fave!
I don’t have a light hand with mascara…I am a layerer. I like lots o’ lashes and this one does a great job!
Plus, it’s cheap, so…..
And finally on my list are these yoga pants that Kristan brought to my attention last week.
I have now been dreaming and obsessing about them. I go to the site everyday and gaze at them.
I want them SO bad.
They are kinda pricey for yoga pants, which is why I have held out.
So there are so of my latest favorites and obsessions…
Sweet yoga pants dreams y’all!













AUGH! No fair. I hate yoga…the only kind I do is the P90X kind and now I want, as in desire, these pants too! Gee thanks.

OOh you are so right about the twofer benefits of online shopping! I am kind of obsessing about those slippers now. My 5 year old son bought me leopard print boot slippers complete with tassels for Christmas though so I’m good for a while.
So, I just went to the Birchbox site, and they’re all sold out!! Boo!!!
OK, now I want those Yoga pants
I think we must be twins. I have those ugg slippers, wearing them right now. Live in them! And I sooo need to try that kiehls cream, nothing else works!! And those lulus–love! Once you switch to lulu you dont go back to anything else. Their stuff is amazing. Im sure this doesnt help your shopping addiction but BUYYY THEM! Or i can send you a pair, here in canada lululemon stores are in abundance
I never knew you had this site?!! Where have I been!
I love Kiehl’s products and some of their conditioner is my fave, ever.
And Lulu pants are great but I highly recommend trying them on in person if you can, otherwise really take your time ordering them b/c their fit is a little different than other yoga pants I think. Enjoy them b/c I know you’re gonna get em
I was in the process of concluding an on-line purchase when I saw your post pop up. Quinky Dink? I think not!
I will have to purchase the Kiehl’s cream for my little (18 year old) girl that thinks her skin is ashy. We just laugh and tell her that is not possible since she is as pale as pink!
I got nothing done today, and it’s your fault. Love Cuptakes!
Those yoga pants are so cute! I am finally getting the space back that I used to use for yoga (a family member lived with us for a bit) and I might have to celebrate that with this purchase! It’s almost time for tax return money….
The Cuptakes are really cute!!! But Birchbox…nice idea…$10 a month??? For theoretically free samples??? Get the f outta here. That kind of overpricing makes me so mad, in my head I’m throwing paint on their storefront.
I just ordered myself a Cuptakes phone case! Can’t wait for it to get here!
