Pack your troubles away (part 2)

Now that your clothes and accessories are packed, lets start on the lotions and potions that keep us beautiful. 
Conair 13-Pc. Travel Bottle Set
Conair Travel bottles to decanter your beauty products into. $13
What to pack:
1. An all-in-one make-up pallete. I truly am a Dior addict, so I adore this one! ($75, Sephora)


2. Sunscreen- never go a day without it! I use a tinted moisturiser and sunscreen in one to save room.
3. Moisturising facial mister (great for planes or after a day in the sun.
4.I always pack a sleep mask and ear plugs as you never know how light or noisy the hotel might be.
5. Toothbrush and toothpaste (I keep the little kits from my dentist and take a fresh pack  with me)
6-8.Cleanser, body wash, shampoo and conditioner.
9. Body Sunscreen and after-sun lotion.

Tips:

Visit Sephora before you go and ask for samples of under-eye lotions, concealers or fun eye shadow colors. Then you have ready-to-travel size make up.
Don't forget your ipod and some external speakers, for the hotel room, or morning jogs.
Pack doubles of certain items such as contacts and sunglasses.
Dont forget your Camera!!!

Love and sights-to-see,

Pass me Over

Hi all, Sorry I have been M.I.A, but I am in the midst of a new project, and have had my hands full. Anyways here is a little craft for a place setting that I created to keep little hands busy today.
Happy Pesach/Easter/Spring!


I'm a lamb of God!

Roberto Cavalli

Neon python snake-clasp clutch

I am going through some serious shopping withdrawls from this "no buying" year. So I did a little fantasy shopping... sad,sad,sad. If I had money and weren't on some personal crusade, these are the things I would buy right now. I am a retro-junkie so it's really killing me that all the fashion right now are 60's throwbacks. sigh.

 Love and longing,

The Look for Less (than Express!)

Designer duds are a girl's dream, but often don't mesh well with the contents of said girl's wallet. Express is a wonderful store for stylish, quality clothes, and whilst not quite as "cha-ching" as runway designs, can still be mean to the checking account. Here I took my favorite Spring white's outfit from this season and challenged myself to find it for as little as possible. I succeeded!




The Total Look "Head to toe" at Express costs just shy of $300.

Jersey Kaftan Top $12.50 (Forever 21)
JCPenney $17

Belt $ 10.80 from Forever 21




Platform Shoes from Charlotte Russe (not pictured  $33)

MY total cost for the whole outfit: $88 (You're welcome!)


Love and frugality,
Kerry the Momster

City Streets White Skinny $17.50 (Jcpenney)


Beaded Necklace:
$7.80 (Forever 21)
