Sponsor Love: Shabby Apple

Hi Lovelies! Do you love vintage clothes?? Do you enjoy scrounging around thrift shops and antique stores looking for the perfect dress or accessory? Sometimes only to find out that the perfect item isn't in your size?:( Well, let me tell you about one of my new-found obsessions! Dresses from Shabby Apple!! This is an amazing online store that has dresses, skirts, blouses, swimwear and some of the most fabulous accessories!! (scarves, brooches, earrings, SHOES!! etc. It's amazing). I could probably spend hours just browsing their site! And the exciting part for me right now is that they even have Maternity Dresses!!

Not only are their dresses amazing--they are feminine and flirty--but their business model is awesome as well! Shabby Apple is a company run by women, for women! So you can rest assured that the products are all women approved and not just some random man's idea of what we women might like;)

I'd highly recommend checking them out! I already have my eyes on a number of items I plan on using some Christmas money on! ;)

Do you have any stores that specialize in vintage/retro clothing??

One more haul--ULTA!

Okay! One more big shopping trip to share with you all! Then it's time to use all this amazing stuff and tell you how fabulous (or not;) it all is!! (you are all guaranteed reviews for AT LEAST the next month! hahahah:)

Tonight I went to Ulta, and as soon as I walked in they had their whole display of Urban Decay Naked and Naked 2 Palettes. Now, for anyone who has been following my blog for any length of time, you know I'm definitely all about the more inexpensive makeup brands. A lot of my makeup is e.l.f., Wet 'n Wild, Hard Candy, etc. I figure if I'm gonna buy a lot, I don't want to go broke.

But.

There it was.

In all its splendor.

And everyone has said such great things about it...

And now I own it.

So, not wanting to let all you lovelies down, I knew I needed to *invest* in some other products to rate, review, and compare. And around the store I went. I picked up:
Illuminating primer!

Which one will make my lashes fuller?

These both have the little round applicator
 Then this product caught my eye! I have never seen, heard, or have any knowledge of it, but it looks amazing! (if it works)
Spray foundation?! Airbrush-"like"?

Now, I had also purchased a small $10 NYX palette that had similar colors to the Naked 2 (I wanted to compare). But after leaving the store I realized the palette *in* the box (Jazz Night) was NOT the one advertised *on* the box (Champagne and Caviar). So, when I went to return it, I somehow ended up buying this in its place:
So yes, now I will be reviewing both of them. My first ever real "expensive" eyeshadow. I'm excited and kinda nervous!:) 

And that's about all the shopping I should be doing for a while! Many, many reviews and comparisons to come!!
