Pucker Up with butter LONDON

January 27, 2017 by jessica 3 Comments

butter LONDON Plush Rush Lip Gloss and Lipstick review

For years, the extent of my lipstick game was a swipe of semi-sheer, light pink color that didn’t really enhance my looks or brighten my smile. I finally came to my senses and decided to make bright pink lipstick one of my signature items (along with short hemlines and flat shoes, of course). I hadn’t strayed far from my beloved Stila lip color for the last two years, but butter LONDON’s Plush Rush lipstick is stealing my heart and the precious limited space in my pint-sized handbag. The key features of the line are that it increases lip fullness while moisturizing to make your pout feel firmer and smoother. The creamy color is long lasting, and I haven’t noticed any feathering or bleeding throughout the day. (I’ve worn it for two weeks now.) One generous swipe in the morning lasts until midday before eventually fading into a beautiful lip stain. I’ve been pretty much obsessed with the shade “Rebellious” that you can see in this post. The brand also has a long-lasting, high-shine lip gloss in the Plush Rush collection that offers many of the same benefits as the lipstick. The colors are more subdued, of course, but they offer a flirty hint of color on their own and an effervescent shine layered over your favorite lipstick.

The Best Item from the September POPSUGAR Must Have Box

September 30, 2016 by jessica 1 Comment

smith-cult-the-warning-lip-lacquer-1-3

If I’m being honest, September’s POPSUGAR Must Have Box wasn’t my favorite. For the third month now, POPSUGAR sent me a Must Have Box to try. I was pretty excited about the previous two mystery boxes. I mean, how could I not be when one of the boxes included an inflatable swan drink holder?! This month’s box was a let down in comparison. Included inside:

  • Jack & Lucy Bicoastal Wide Brim Hat ($58): I’m just not a hat girl.
  • NCLA MANI-ER Tool Kit ($16): I would have enjoyed this more if I didn’t already have a couple of travel manicure sets. I’ll toss this in my desk at work.
  • Briogeo Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask ($36): I have yet to try this, but I’m not excited about it. My hair is relatively healthy, split ends aside, without damage from over processing. I’ll give it to my mom to try since she dyes her hair.
  • Flint Lint Roller ($10): Okay, this retractable lint roller is pretty awesome and way easier to tote around than a traditional one that just becomes a mess.
  • Smith & Cult Lip Lacquer in “The Warning” ($22): LOVE.
  • The Gluten Free Bites in dark chocolate coconut ($5): These are vegan and gluten free. They’re okay, but I’d rather have the dairy!

What made it worth it? The Smith & Cult lip lacquer in “The Warning,” a gorgeous sheer red gloss. The Must Have Box comes in at $39.95 (you can take $5 off your first box with code SHOP5). Given that the gloss retails at $22, another $17.95 for the other items really isn’t that bad, especially when I’m going to get a ton of use out of the retractable lint roller and I’m going to attempt to be a hat girl for at least one day.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
