#NYFWMUC-9/13/09-R U Ready 4 sum football + YT review of Lorac Cosmetics!

Its the start of the football season - are you excited!!!!  I, for one, am not the most die hard football fan but I catch a game or two here and there and once you see your team and action and get involved in the yelling and booing, etc. it really is a lot of fun!  My team (NY Giants) and "the sig's" team (Washington Redskins) played against each other (of course we won!) so it was even more fun.  I enjoy having bragging rights for a little while. 

To show my support of the team I decided to go with a look totally dedicated to them.  Now you all know I live in DC with some of the most die hard fans - I even wore this look out to the store to pick up some items for our little football watching get together and even the Skins fans complimented it.  LOL  I ran into one lone Giants fan but of course he liked it too.  Here's the rundown:

#NYFWMUC - 9/11/09 c/o Back 2 MAC!

Yesterday I FINALLY got a chance to take my empties up to Georgetowne for some Back 2 MAC action.  I had 28 empties total (yeah I know) so I had to leave 4 behind for the next go round.  I get so excited when I have enough empties to take back like oooh hey look at me, look at all my empties...and then you come home with 4 brand new items but its still like damn 24 down to 4 - no LOL Smileyface here my friends...

Anyway I ended up getting Contrast, Patina and Print shadows and Entice lipglass which my friend promptly stole from me (dont you hate friends sometimes?) so my 3 shadows and I decided to create a look today since they seem to play so nicely together.  Lets get to it!
