don't forget to enter my GIVEAWAY HERE to win an apothica.com gift certificate to buy all the best beauty essentials!
i had a formal last weekend and ended up getting a steal with this t-bags dress that i absolutely fell in loveee with. not to mention, i was beyond ecstatic to finally be able to take my new jeffrey campbell lita's out of their precious shoebox.
can we please take a minute to admire the gorgeous bouquet of flowers my sweet date gave me.. i felt like i was a bride!
hopefully its not completely obvious that i feel awkward in formal settings where im expected to act "cookie-cutter" and not use the f word. psh, utter fail. my shoes made sure of that.. no matter; i had fun in my ponyhaired lace ups.
so PLEASE tell me. what exactly could be a better end to this dragging week than $25 to THE beauty retailer of all online shopping. and yes, i'm talking about $25 for YOU, not me. YES IT'S GIVEAWAY TIMEEE! so let's get down to the dirty details.
basically apothica is the most fabulous online beauty retailer because WAIT not only do they carry the makeup brands we all love and lust over (YSL, NARS, too faced, smashbox...), but get this.. they also carry hair products! (oh and skin and body products too).. pluss candles. because who doesn't love to get ready by the romantic flame with a coconut scent? so here's your chance to win a $25 gift card to put towards your next purchase (because let's be honest.. who wants to stop at $25?!).
the contest runs from October 28 to November 20.. just in time to secure some goods to break out in december! also, the giveaway is for domestic AND international readers!

applause for a fabulously worn topshop coat in the middle of subsahara GEORGIA? definitely think so. not to mention the fabulous pieces that have been stomping down the runway lately. can we please take a moment and appreciate the michael bastian model on the right in the gryffindor stripes? fucking hott.
