Oh look at all my goodies...

Quick post but I just had to share! Last Friday I went on a little shopping spree!!!

Ok a big one according to my wallet but hey, this was for both my birthday which was last month and Mother's Day. I purchased three more blouses and now will be on the hunt for some Capri pants and one or two pairs of shoes. Once I find these I'll be good for summer! :)

Here are the beauty goodies I got...




Sorry about the quality of the picture but I had little time and really, really wanted to show you! If you follow me on Instagram, here, then you've seen these already.

Diptyque Do Sun solid perfume (yes we have Diptyque at Ogilvy which is much closer to me than Holt Renfrew). This was a real unpredicted spur of the moment splurge!

Voluspa candle which is rosy divine! Here you see the top of the box.

Guerlain Rouge Automatique, a nail polish and a La Petite Robe Noire sample (did I mention the SAs at my Gerlain counter were just great?). Would you believe this is my first ever Guerlain lippie? Woot!

Two The Balm eye shadows and a gloss all at an amazing price! This was a great opportunity to try some of this brand's offerings.

A box of Hello Kitty bandages!

*Happy Dance*

I rarely go for so many items at the same time and I must admit, I felt a little guilty but hey, it was for both my birthday and Mother's Day as mentioned.

About the Hello Kitty bandages... Catherine thought I was nuts getting these but as I explained to her, I'd much rather have these on my feet (reason why I just had to stop by a drugstore to purchase because they were hurting bad from all the walking) than some ugly beige plastic or pseudo fabric strips. They look cute and go so nicely with Chanel Le Vernis in Coup de Coeur which is my second pedi color of the season! :)


What do you think of whimsical bandages? Like or no like?

Haha just to be honest, sometimes I am REALLY tempted to get band-aids with favorite cartoon characters as well (I've seen some with Monsters Inc and so on that look really nice)!

Nice little haul! Can't wait to see the Guerlain shades you picked up! Did I tell you there is this new store in my town that carries theBalm? I've got to check it out soon. Last time I walked past by I was with friends, and I didn't want to bore them :)

LOL Sunny I got hooked on those fun Ban-aids when Cat was little. She moved on but I didn't.

The Guerlain, there's a hit and a miss!

Lovely looking purchases, Helene! Which Rouge Automatique is it? Those Guerlain lipsticks have such nice formulas. :)

Good think about having little kids is that I have a whole variety of fun bandages to use! I am a fan of Hello Kitty myself.

Wait til your kids grow up Darling, that's when fun bandages will make them wince! :)

I'll post about those Guerlain soon but so far that formula is real, real nice!

I think you're going to love the Guerlain Rouge Automatique, it's one of my favorite formulas! Very fun finds - I've recently been splurging on clothes and accessories mostly, I need to go on a bit of a no-buy now!

So far Monika I can say that I'm really liking GRA's formula and I think I'll need more... :)

I still have to find a few articles of clothing and then it'll be no-buy for me as well.

Great haul! Love what you've got. The HK band aids are so cute! I have a few too. ;)

Thanks Gio these are fun splurges for me. The HK are my fave in all the kids designs. :)
My recent post Oh look at all my goodies...
I want some Hello Kitty bandages as well!!
Nice selection of items there, I have to say I have no luck with selecting Diptyque fragrances, I've order three without trying them first (not through choice as I have no stores near me that sell them) and everyone I get seems to be masculine or just too grassy.

Hey Clare go and get some, now!!! :) Sorry to read about Diptyque, I must say I was so excited to find this brand that I just had to get something and the solid perfume I chose I'm really liking so far. :)
My recent post Oh look at all my goodies...
Now that is quite a haul! Sounds like fun. I wish we could buy TheBalm in stores. I like their makeup but I prefer to buy most makeup in person or at least see it in person before buying online. I think the Hello Kitty bandaids are adorable. Have fun!

Allison I never buy online, we have a few places here who sell TheBalm but the drugstore I got these at is liquidating the merchandise so maybe these were the last possible "in person" purchases. HK band-aids are the best!!! :D
Nice haul! I like the band-aids! I have bought X-Men band aids which people really liked and commented on! LOL

The Balm eyeshadows are great! The textures are so smooth and very silky wet or dry. Happy Beautiful Woman Day! (I am making it up because at the age we are, I think we need to celebrate everyday for living and becoming wiser!)

X-Men Band-aids??? I so gotta look for those!!!

I'm really impressed by TheBalm eyeshadows and now I'm sad they didn't have more...

Happy Beautiful Woman Day to you toooo! About the wiser part, I'm not so sure it applys to me... yet! :)

I love love capri pants......my fav to wear in the summer - not a fan of shorts so much but I can't pass up a great pair of capris. Rock the Hello Kitty bandages---way cuter than the regular boring beige ones. I didn't think that Ogilvy was still around!!!! we used to have one here and it's where my mom took me every year for school clothes. We have a very small Holt Renfrew so not worth checking out - but hear that we are getting a Simons soon!!!
