Goddamnit Black Friday sales, you know I can't resist pretty eyeshadow palettes, especially when they're sold in surprisingly cheap bundles AND they ship to my country (Praying they don't send it through DHL, fucking thieves)
 
Treated myself to some new lipsticks for my birthday and I love the Frosty the Snowman lipstick from Colorpop, look at the designs on the stick!

I don't usually like very decorative clothes, but lace longline bralettes make me really happy, and I found one the other day in partially-sheer brown with one of those little bows on the front. It's the same color as my hair, so they meet on my chest and form this colorblock that is incredibly, incredibly satisfying lol
 
I'm not a burger so I never had any occasion to check out lululemon- but why do people love it that much? Lululemon haters are welcome to answer as well :)

It's a rich-woman in-group signifier.
There is an argument to be made the quality is better than like, Walmart leggings, but it's mostly about being a "Lulu girl".
 
Questions for all the 3 ladies of the farms who would indulge my curiosity, but would you ever consider, or better yet if you've worn them, wearing a fishbone top?
And how comfortable are they? Do you feel secure with them?

Also, would you say this is both a picnic as well as gathering accessible dress?

Dress is pretty; it looks like it'd be good for a picnic if the photo is accurate. It might be in a weird spot of not being fancy enough for a formal party, being too formal for a casual gathering, but I bet a shawl or shrug would help dress it down.

I have never been tempted by a top like that; even if it were my style, my faith in gravity is too strong.
 
Those tops are risky af if they don't fit you perfectly well up top. If they're long enough to hit the curve of your hip they  probably will stay put/not slip too-too much, but popping out is a risk, especially if the cup isn't a fuller coverage-type. If they have functional lacing that'd make them a bit better, I think, so you can adjust it a bit to be more secure.

Also they're underwear not outerwear reeeeee
 
This isn’t a seasonal appropriate post for the Western hemisphere, since I bought these back in May for a June wedding that I was a guest to, but in my opinion this is the prettiest purchase that I’ve made this year.

I tend to dress more on the gothic side, and didn’t have a nice pair of wedge heels. So I bought these while they were on sale. I think that they’re still versatile to wear to places other than weddings. And the white lace wasn’t so taboo for a wedding, that I felt inappropriate.

I generally don't wear makeup but I'm trying to be more mature looking in my workspace now that I'm almost 30. Got the etude house lip tint and gddamn is it a miracle worker.

Brings out my skin tone and is just like wearing nothing. Combining it with repairing lip oil for how dry it is where I live is a miracle worker.

What shade did you get? I have it in Dracula Red (gorgeous shade btw, but looks more red in person) and it's great, really, but feels impossible to take off. I love it but I can only wear it on days where I won't be going to work or anywhere important the next day, because the stain clings to my lips and eventually stays in my lip lines or random tiny spots, which just looks like I have weird zits.
 
Holy shit Too Faced's born this way eyeshadow palette is hard to find here. I spent months waiting for stores to restock it and when they finally did it and I managed to snag one last week, they sold out the next day. It's not for me, it's for a friend who kept looking at its shades while we were shopping some time ago, I hope she still wants it!

I have the Dear Darling Water Tint in Cherry :}

I find it washes off a lot easier, though also my skin doesn't hold makeup well in general. I'm debating one of the gel tints to see if it sticks harder.
 
Also sorry to double post, but what eye makeup styles do other mixed asian kiwis like?

Hard to find styles I like for thin hooded eyes that aren't full monolid. Everything is either no monolid or just plain monolid.
 
Has anyone found reusable pads that don't head out for a pack of cigarettes after walking around for more than ten minutes? I have some snap ones but I heard velcro tends to stay better, however I'm not dropping 40$ to have the same problem. Maybe fabric tape would help?
