I got this jacket in raspeberry red last year and wished I'd seen the cream before my size sold out but they brought it back this year and I'm delighted! I wanted to wear it straight out of the shop and that is a good sign I'll wear it to death! I bought it on a discount but then decided to order the navy online as I could do with a navy. Thought the offer was over but when I went to pay, there was another discount so I'm pretty happy with these two! I wear blazers all the time with jeans, it's what I feel most comfortable in so I'm looking forward to milder weather now. *stars My husband won't be doing this happy dance when the parcel arrives on Monday :D

I've been wanting a white purse for a couple of years and finally stopped in Kohl's and picked one up yesterday. It'll do and I got a great price on it; 30% off coupon on top of the marked down sale price. :D
I find I love things even more if I get a discount on top. Well done! I guess purse is what we say as bag in UK? I haven't had a white one for years but I do love them, they are so summery.

I'm kind of a bit miffed that once I got my navy jacket it is just the wrong shade to go with any of my dark jeans. It's a slightly slate navy not blue navy if that makes sense. It will go with my white and cream jeans but I'm going to have to get a lighter pair of blue jeans to go with it and they generally make me look like I've put on a good few pounds *huh It's annoying to have to buy more things to go with something you've just bought.

Light wash jeans are very popular right now and if cream and white jeans are okay, I would think you would be able to find a pair of lighter blue jeans that suit you. I find it's all about the cut. High-waisted jeans look horrible on me because I'm short-waisted, so I need mid-rise. Also the placement of any seams and distressing can make you look bigger or smaller.
 
What do you guys think of these sandals? I think they are classic and cute. They are Vionic with excellent arch support. I can get them inexpensively on ebay as a retail return. These are Navy but I could also get them in blush or yellow. I have a pair of flip flops in this platform style and find the thick soles are extra cushy.

The rules of makeup are nothing but the experience of makeup artists who, through trial and error, have developed a universal system of makeup application. Follow the order of application: if you start with lipstick and leave the foundation for "dessert," there is a great chance of ruining your makeup. Always apply dry creams, powder blushes, on top of creams, but only after absorption. Take your skin type into account. Oily skin needs cosmetics with matting components. Otherwise, it will quickly shine, and dry skin requires moisturizing. Sensitive skin needs maximum hypoallergenic composition. Problematic skin requires a corrector and concealer.
