March Wish List

It's that time of year... time to put away the winter and get ready for spring.  That of course means COLOR!!!  I plan to do exactly just that.  Get some much needed color in my wardrobe.

March Wish List by jelobo2 featuring Forever 21

1. Furano by GX by Gwen Stefani for Shoedazzle:  OMG OMG OMG OMG... words can not explain how excited I am for this line.  I ADORE Gwen Stefani!  I am going to go broke because I basically want everything that is in the line for Shoedazzle.  This bag is bold and spunky and completely bad ass!
2. Electric Palette by Urban Decay:  I have experimented with lipstick a lot, but not really eye shadow... I think it is time that I start!  I saw this palette from Urban Decay on Kandee Johnson's blog and it would be so much fun to play with.  It hasn't been released yet (Coming to stores in April or available March 18 online!).
3. ASOS CURVE Cami in Check Print:  Even though I am trying to add some color in my life, I still love my black and white, I'll just pair it with some colorful skinny jeans!
4. Riviera Burst Necklace:  The color combo is great and even though the colors are pastel I still feel like it would be great for the tropical vacation that I am so not taking anytime soon!
5. Color Cascade Knee-Length Skirt:  Do I NEED another knee length skirt?  Probably not, but I sure want this one!  It is soo fun, plus how cute would it look with the neon yellow necklace on my February Wishlist??

MORE WISHLIST ITEMS:

1.  Sugarpill Pressed Eyeshadow in Velocity:  This gorgeous color is super pigmented.  I saw it on a makeup artist that I follow on instagram (@makeupshayla) and fell in love, but was too scared to try it.  I'm saying screw it and buying it soon!
2. Emiko by GX by Gwen Stefani for Shoedazzle:  I wasn't kidding when I said I wanted like everything, but I will limit this wishlist to two items!  How fabulous are these?
3.  City-Chic Faux Jacket from Forever 21:  I already own this jacket in burgundy and love it... then they came out with the grey... seriously considering buying the grey... 
4. Grazia Illusion Zip Front Dress from Simply Be:  This dress is gorgeous and hugs your curves perfectly.  Unfortunately the US Simply Be doesn't have it... I found it on their UK site...
5. Studio Abstract Print Fit & Flare Dress from Eloquii:  This dress is a statement piece!
6. TriBeCa Dress from Rue 107:  Do I really have to explain why I want this... it’s an amazing dress!
7. Geo Print Peplum Skirt from Ashley Stewart:  Love the purple and orange together!
8. Antiqued Sterling Silver Plated Medieval Cross Swords and Filigree Accented Ear Wires by Ghostlove: Man that is a mouth full, but I am really digging these earrings!

I Joined The Zombie Craze... Pretty Zombie Cosmetics Review

So, I joined the zombie craze... but instead of catching up on seasons of The Walking Dead or renting World War Z, I did it in a way that is true to myself.... LIPSTICK! :)

One night boredom took over me (as it so often does), so I explored Instagram.  I follow a lot of makeup artists and cosmetics companies.  I have found some great products off of exploring Instagram... I would have never have discovered AND fallen in love with Limecrime or Melt Cosmetics.  My newest discovery is Pretty Zombie Cosmetics that I found through Micheline Pitt.

I ADORE my liquid lipsticks from Limecrime and the fact that there are only three colors offered right now and I already own those three makes me sad.  I WANT MORE.  So when I saw that this company has liquid lipstick, I had to see what shades they offered!  I was pleasantly surprised that they offer seven shades.

I was immediately smitten with the two purple shades 3 Witches and Purple Poison.  I was also stoked about the price!  So the next Friday when I got paid, I bought the two and waited with uncontrollable anticipation for their arrival!

They arrived on Monday (OH HAPPY DAY!) and I couldn't wait to rip open the box and try them on!  I love the pinup zombie that they used for the packaging... I'm a pinup girl, so that shouldn't surprise you.  The colors are fabulously pigmented.  The website says 90 seconds to dry, but I think it took a little longer.  They stayed on very well, I barely had to retouch.  All in all I a pleased.  I got major complements when I wore them to work this week.  Especially the 3 Witches.  So if you feel a little adventurous, give them a try!

You can check out the Pretty Zombie Cometics website (linked above) or their Instagram.  I don't think they have a Facebook page, because I haven't found one...
