Weekend re-cap, Moto Love and inspired look

Wow, the weekend is over. It went by so fast. Yesterday I spent the day at the Tanger outlets in Long Island. I ended up picking up getting a Juicy Couture dress and a Coach bag. I was glad that there wasn't a line outside the Coach outlet so the bf and I went inside. It was a madhouse as always but manageable. I ended up picking up a bag I had been eyeing a few months ago but it was insanely expensive so no purchasing then but at the outlet they were having a 50% off on a lot of items and the bag ended up being about 75% off retail. It's a pretty lilac color bag with silver hardware.

The Juicy dress I got seems to have come with a belt originally but it wasn't available at the outlets (weird but I'm not a big belt person anyway).

I also got the LE cluster earrings from Sarah aka Moto Jewelry in the mail yesterday-yay! I purchased the "CS" and "GD". I also received the cutest love note with the most adorable kitten pic on it and more candy (I swear she sends the best candy that I always end up trying to find during my next trip to the Asian supermarkets). I loved the new colors that Sarah did in crystals only. The CS is made of pastel crystals and the GD has different shades of purple.

GD earrings

I ended up bumming around for most of the day today but I decided to wear my GD earrings and do my eye make up based on the same colors.

On my face have on a DHC eye touchup, the Dior Airflash in 300 and the Mac mineralize blush in Love Rocks. For the eyes, I used Paul and Joe eye gloss #3 (a silver lilac color) as a base, YSL colour harmony palette in Lilac Sky, a Rock & Republic noir scene palette, Urban Decay liquid liner in Crash and Physicians Formula organic wear mascara. For lips, I have on the YSL volupte lipstick in nude beige and Lorac Couture Shine in Haute. Here's a close up on my GD inspired eye make -up.

I am wearing the Angel grey lenses I got from Mesmerized Eyes. This is the second time I've worn them for a few hours and they were fairly comfortable. I did make sure to put in some eye drops at lease once during the day but it was more of a precaution than the lenses feeling uncomfortable. The grey lenses show up blueish and it's a bit weird since you can still see the brown of my eyes so I might end up liking the brown ones more since they blend a bit better even though they aren't as dramatic.

A bit of eki love and moto jewelry (updated)

A crazed day at work and gross rainy weather, but it was very nice that I received a bunch of goodies in the mail. First up is my package from eki. I had ordered a few hair decorations from her when she first opened her shop: a decorated flower and 2 mini flowers with stones. Here's the goodies that she sent:

Along with the flowers I ordered, she was very kind to included one of her barrettes, a eyeko make-up wipe, a pore strip, some hello kitty decals and one of her yummy chocolate pops. Everything is so cute and pretty.

Here is a better pic of the smaller clips:

I'm going away nice month so I figure I can wear the big flower as an easy way to upgrade my boring ponytail/bun if I'm feeling lazy (which I know I will be).

I can't wait till the weather is nicer and can I wear everything out. Thank you Eki for the fabulous hair decorations! If you're interested in some eki love ~ go visit her store.

My other very exciting package of the day is my cluster earrings from Moto Jewelry. I had asked Sarah to make some modifications to her original design and she was very nice in accommodating me. I had asked for fewer pearls in her "very girly" clusters, and swapped out the large pearl for a medium pearl. I also ordered "rainy clouds" cluster and asked to also swap out the large pearl for a medium pearl. I got a preview on her page but they are definitely much more gorgeous in person. Here's what my packaged looked like:

when I pulled my package from the mailbox, I was wondering why my 2 pairs of earrings would be so heavy...She had included a e.l.f lip gloss, candy, and a soothing natural body lotion in addition to the cluster earrings.

I am wearing one of the smaller flowers from eki and a dsk plumpy flower along with my earrings from Sarah. Yep, trying to support all my girls. =)

The Rainy Cloud clusters (along with a dsk star in aqua). It's pretty cool how in the pic with flash the blue crystals turn into a more purplish color:

To get your own cluster earrings (tons of different options) and see the other awesome pieces that Sarah have made go to her page.

And for actually reading/scrolling through this entry, here is a self portrait ~ a first for my blog (excuse the confused look, it was better than the mean look I had in my other pic):

**Updated: I had some pics I forgot to put up. I also realize that my pics become gi-normous if you click on them. I figured out why and how to stop it so I'm warning you ~ pics are waaay to big when you click on them. I was using a new program for photos and I forgot to carefully look at my saving details.
