New glasses!

As my birthday was on Thursday, October 20th, and I celebrated Wednesday, Thursday, Friday & Saturday, I haven't quite been able to blog about it.
However, I will be posting a Birthday Haul article shortly if you guys are curious to see what I got! (I got a lot of sweets, so by the time I take pictures, they might not exist anymore...)
But, here's something I received recently in the mail that I was really excited for.
I have a pretty bad vision and I wore contacts most of the time because I hated my glasses. The contacts aren't very good to wear all the time, but I would wear mine from 6 a.m to 10 p.m., which was way to much and my eyes would get very dry. However, I ordered new glasses through Clearly Contacts, and I looooove them! So, I think that I'll be wearing glasses more often now. Plus, they were sooooo cheap! Not even 100$! For those who have glasses, you know that's a great deal.
Yeah, I am au naturel in this picture... 0 makeup.  It was the morning after my birthday party organized by my boyfriend! It was so nice :)

What do you guys think of my frames? Do you wear glasses (like it or hate it)? How bad is your vision?

Collective Haul (Sept.-Oct.)

I finally got the time to take a picture of what I bought during the last weeks and thought I'd share it with you guys! 
From left to right, top to bottom:
1. Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in 200, Strobe Light
2. Revlon Nail Enamel in 791, Midnight Affair
3. Sally Hansen Continuous Treatment, Base & Top Coat
4. Revlon Nail Enamel in 478, Tuscan Sun
5. Maybelline New York Great Lash Mascara in Clear
6. NYC Blushable Creme Stick in Big Apple Blush
7. NYC Lipstick in 314, Petal
8. Wet n Wild Natural Wear Lip Shimmer in 106
9. Nivea Energy Breeze Invisible Anti-Perspirant, Fresh sensation with Lemongrass extracts
(Had to mention this even though it isn't makeup because I looooove it. I've always had trouble finding a good deodorant and this one does the job perfectly!)
10. Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen in Blackest Black

Now... onto fashion! I only got 2 pieces...
This top is from Dynamite and I got it for 20$. The color shows up perfectly in the picture... It also has some tight stitching on the side which creates the sort of wrinkles on it. The sleeves are done in the same way. It is veeery comfy. 
This cardigan is from Simmons. It is a round neck, and has 5 large black buttons. The inside is a nice floral pattern so if you keep it open and bend the edges, it looks very interesting. It came in several other colors I believe.

What have you recently purchased that you absolutely love? Do you want a review on any of the products mentioned?

I know I'm getting a laptop so I won't include that in the list ;)

  • Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki brush from Sigma 
  • Travel Kit Nice in Pink from Sigma
  • Just Dance 3 Wii Game
  • Faux Leather Jacket (black or brown)
  • Ankle boots or booties (black or grey)
  • NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow pencil in Milk & other colors maybe
  • Frame for a Prom Picture
I will continue to update this soon but that is pretty much it for now!

When is your birthday? What do you want to have? What did you get?
