Makeover!

Yesterday was busy and fun! I went with all 3 sisters to the Jewelry Trade Show. The Spring & Fall shows have a wider range of products and more people there. I was very clear that I was only going to buy what I loved. I found a great oblong green/brown scarf and Chanel brown sunglasses.

We all headed to Oak Brook after that to go for lunch. Rachel rode with me. She and I decided to go look at make up at MAC after lunch...which by this time was about 3:00 pm. We were there until 7:00 pm. I had a complete makeover and Rachel had her eyes done. Finally I have that old, crap makeup replaced. What a hodge podge of stuff. I was shown a daytime look and an evening look for the wedding. Now I'm set.

This morning was my facial and microdermabrasion appointment with Diane. So my face & neck are cleansed and fresh. What a mess that made out of my hair. I was red faced and wild looking the rest of the day! I might have scared people...but I just couldn't care I had things to do today.

So, I headed over to Macy's to make a return. Between mine and Mom's gift cards I was able to buy two white tops (hoping to go with that black/white skirt), black BCGC flats, Donna Karen pantyhose, a pair of Lauren pearl earrings and a MAC eyeshadow brush. The great thing is I still have money on my gift card! Now that's shopping!

Tomorrow I'm meeting up with Lyn at Nordstroms to look for the black evening dress for the wedding. I already have shoes and earrings. This is going to have to be a very versatile dress. I still don't feel like I've nailed down the white top I need to go with that skirt for the shower, so I'll probably look for that again too. I can't believe the shower is next weekend. The time is flying by!

I haven't even begun to look at my spring/summer wardrobe yet. I'd like to put together a clothing capsule to take on vacation. Robert left information out on the business conference in Las Vegas in July. I'm not sure we can swing that too. I guess we'll have to see how it goes. I don't even have a bathing suit that fits. Ugh. I need to get my eating, cardio and workouts down tight for this summer's events!

  1. Gale,

    Sounds like you had a day packed with the things that you love! How fun is that!
    Now if I could get excited about my clothes!
    But I guess we all have different loves and passions that we helps others that don't have that same passion for that particular thing. I wonder what my passion is? :)
    Don't be so hard on the eating and exercise it will all come together. I am here for you anyway you need me.
