Friday Favorites

May 15, 2015

Hi everyone!  Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Favorites.  I’ve been digging through my makeup collection and rediscovering products that I used in the past.  Some I used a lot and others were barely touched.  This week’s favorites include some of the treasures that I want to talk about in my eyeshadow collection.  Some are palettes and others are singles.  Let me know if you’re loving any of these.

My Favorite Long Lost Eyeshadows

 

1. The Coastal Scents Beijing Palette is stunning!  It looks great on so many eye colors and works well with all skin tones.  It’s so versatile.  I can create so many different looks with this one palette.  Best of all, it only costs $10.95 for 12 different eyeshadow colors.

2. This Bobbi Brown Rose Gold shadow is probably one of my all time favorite single shadows.  My other favorite single is the 3. Bare Minerals Bare Skin is my favorite loose mineral shadow of all time.  It’s especially perfect for summer.   If you’ve followed along on my YouTube channel then you may recall both of these from years ago.  Funny how some things never change as far as what our “go to” looks are.  I get compliments every time I wear either one of these shadows.

4. If you love taupe colored eye shadow then you’ll love Corinthian from Le Metier de Beaute.  This shadow is a luxury item that was gifted to me by a friend several years ago.  It’s a beautiful taupe with a slight purple undertone.

5.  MAC Soft Brown, need I say more?!  I use this as a transition color almost every single day no matter what color eyeshadow I’m wearing.

6. The original Lorac Unzipped Palette has been a favorite of mine for a few years now too.  It’s such a good travel palette because it has options for so many different looks.  I actually did not purchase the new Lorac Unzipped Gold.  I just don’t love gold shades on my eyes.

Let me know what shadows you love and are old and/or new favorites of yours.

      I hear that the Crest Whitening strips are really good. I have veneers so I obviously don’t need to whiten. I hope that helps! Stacie xo

    Pretty excited about the Lorac “Unzipped” palette. I love nude eye shadows and am always on the prowl for blendable shades! (Not a huge fan of golds here, either.)

Remember this pretty navy strapless dress? I can change up the look in the blink of the eye with my accessories. 

Today I added a lightweight olive color sweater wrap over my shoulders and a neutral cane wristlet. 

I find the little half sweater wrap to be the perfect touch. It adds interest, extra color and a tiny bit of warmth. It comes in dozens of colors and stripes too. 

Dress and topper are on sale!🎉

I patiently waited (and stalked) the website and brick and mortar stores until I finally found these cute (and extremely comfortable) suede sandals in my size. 🎉

They’re the perfect pairing with my new Lysse New York outfit! I’m feeling like I should be going somewhere warm and fun now.

My jewelry is Melinda Maria and you can use code StacieH for 10% off your order.✨

My purse is Spartina 449. Isn’t it divine?!💗

Just say SHOP and I will send you all the outfit details, but you must be following me to receive the message (it’s an IG rule).‼️

Well this pretty dress does that for me!☺️

And yes, it has pockets! To be honest, the only thing I ever put in the pockets are my hands. But when a dress doesn’t have them, I don’t feel as comfortable. Anybody else feel the same?😅
