NAILS - # 370 - Commander in Chic - A new FAVORITE!!!

In my big haul [ you can see HERE ] I got this

polish.. and I am in love with it...

It's a Sally Hansen Polish in

and its this

this purplish grey color..Right now, this is one of my favorite polishes!!

I think the color is beautiful for fall and or winter and I plan on stocking up on this polish!!

This polish cost about $ 7.99 - and that's the price of most high end polishes, and I think its well worth the buy!

Nails - Wet n Wild # 214 A - CAUGHT RED HANDED

Last night since I was feeling so bad thought what better time to paint my nails.. Wasn't like I was doing much of anything else..

I picked out a " newish " Wet N Wild polish that I had never tried once since buying it..

# 214  - Caught Red Handed -

I am surprised at how well this polish went on and I think its a really pretty red. It has a bit of sparkle to it.. barely even noticeable to the eye. The polish is a more sheer red showing the nail line, and I don't really like that with dark colors. So this is 4 coats of polish with a top coat.

You guys know, I have paid someone for over 5 years to do my nails. I just suck at it but I am getting better!! I didn't mess up hardly at all when painting my nails this color. Should have painted my toe nails this color too but for tonight.. finger nails was it!

Love this color for this time of the year!

Any of you guys tried it yet?? Let me know!!

Nails - ORLY CITRINE CHEER ~

Last night I finally got around to doing my nails. I went through my polishes and decided to try out this Orly Polish that I had not used in a while..

Here it is..

This is #551 ~ Citrine Cheer ~

This is a fast drying polish with a pearl finish.

I had to put 3 coats on to make it a bit darker. It applies pretty sheer but I actually like it! I think its perfect for fall!!

For a cheaper polish, this went on well. I  did a clear topcoat to it to help it last a bit longer but not disappointed in any way!

What fall polishes are you loving right now?

Let me know!!

Revlon ~ Chili ~

Hello friends!! If you saw this POST or this HAUL then you know I bought this Revlon Polish in ~ Chili~.. Now I am not that great at doing nails.. thats why I had my nails done for me for years. But now, I am trying to do them myself and buying more and more polish. When I saw this polish I was in LOVE!!! I really liked the color.. I don't know why I feel ok wearing color when my nails are shorter vs when they are longer. But I painted my nails with this color last night and I think it looks as good on as it does in the bottle!!

This is also a Top Speed Polish that drys really fast.. For someone like me.. thats a requirement!! I know this is not the best paint job.. but look at the color.. is it not one of the prettiest fall colors? I love it and soooo happy I stepped out of my box and got it! I think that the Revlon Top Speed polishes are actually pretty good for the price. Normally quick-dry nail polish formulas seem to be fairly heavy and thick, to the point where they go gloppy  after a few uses. Not so the Revlon Top Speed polishes. For a quick-dry formula they were actually quite runny, but not in an annoying way that you couldn't work with. I thought it went on really smooth and after a few coats and a clear top coat it worked GREAT! It dries in about 5 minutes which is the ONLY reason I picked this. These retail for around $ 5.00 a bottle which is aprox $1.00 more than their regular polishes and I think its a steal! I promise you this is not the last Revlon Top Speed polish I will be doing.. I plan on getting ALL THE COLORS so stay tuned for those swatches! I love this and I couldn't be happier with the polish!

Have any of you guys tried this line yet? I know its not new but I am just trying it for the first time!! Let me know your thoughts if you have tried it and if not.. do you think you might try it now???

Email me!!

The " hunt " for my Orangy Red Lipstick!!

As I told you in last nights beauty haul post ( if you didn't see it you can click HERE to read it )

that I wanted a lipstick that would match well with my new polish..

So here is what I found..

The polish I got yesterday..The 2 lipsticks and lipliner is what I got today..

I found..

This Revlon Lipstick in

and I think it matches..

Pretty good!!

But.. I found another in ..

also by Revlon that I think matches..

even better! Ha!! Sooo happy finding these 2!!!

Finding a lipliner to match up proved to be more hard.

I settled on this one by Covergirl in

# 205

Smoky Intense..

I am not sure how this will look with the lipsticks.. but I think once I outline my lips and fill them in with this pencil.. it will look just fine after the lipstick is applied on top of it..

I will get swatches and do reviews soon!

Sally Hansen Salon Effects ~ Plaid About You ~

Yesterday I got more of the Sally Hansen Polish Strips.. I love these handy little things. I am not the best at doing my own nails..in fact, I suck at it.. But these sure help a lot!!

Here they are..

Now.. I did do these after I took a couple sleeping pills so its not the best application but still..

I think they turned out pretty good!

I did put a coat of clear polish over them.. just to maybe help extend the life of the polish strips but you don't have to. Also as I have mentioned before, these come with 2 little packets of polish strips but since my nails are short right now.. I only used one. I put it on my nail.. then cut it and put it on the same finger nail but on the other hand. I love this because I can get two uses out of 1 box!

Friday Haul!!

I picked up a few things today that I thought I would share with you guys! I get a lot of questions about how much I spend on stuff.. Please remember.. I rarely buy anything that is not on sale.. I just don't do it unless of course, I have to. 

So lets get to it!!

First off I went to Rite Aid to pick up.. 

some of the Organix Body Wash. Right now these are buy one get one free. They are normally $ 10.00 each and with this sale.. It was like they are $5.00 each! How awesome is that. I love doubling up on bath and hair products because in my bathroom.. my shower and bath tub are separate. I don't like having to transfer things from one area to the other. 

This one is my favorite. As you can read its a blend of cherry blossom and rice milk.. 

Smells and feels really good! 

I decided to get a different one for the shower.. 

This is the Coconut milk and sugar cane.

 I Will let you all know what I think of this one after I have tried it a few times. 

Both of these are a gel consistency and really lathers up really well! 

I am not sure when the sale ends.. so if you are interested in getting these for the sale price.. get there ASAP!!!!

Next up.. 

I got these Sally Hansen Salon Effects in 

" Plaid About You" .. 

How cute is that name!? Anyway.. got these on sale too at Rite Aid. 

The next sale item I got was.. 

This Revlon Color Stay Lipliner in # 630 ~ Nude ~.. 

Thinking about it now.. I should have got 2 of these and I will explain why towards the end of the post. Not 2 nude ones but 2 lipliners. If I remember right these are 30% off. 

Husby's good electric razor broke recently so he is back to shaving with a normal razor. He was complaining how my " girly " disposable razors were tearing up his face.. So I got him..

Some special Aveeno Shaving Cream that is suppose to help prevent razor burn. 

And some more.. 

disposable razors because I couldn't remember what kind of blades his razor took.. 

( sorry but these were not on sale ) but they were for him.. and he is worth full price. 

I next picked up some lipstick that was on sale too..

Please look over my nails.. I was swatching all kinds of polishes on them.. so they look a mess right now.. Will fix them soon! 

Anyway I got this Revlon Colorburst lipstick 

in 

Now I don't normally wear red lipstick.. But I have been looking a lot at how the lady's in the 50's wore their make up.. and red lips were a big part of it.. so really want to try. .

What I was trying to do was get a lipstick that matched up with .. 

This new Revlon Polish that I got. This one is in .. 

I just love it for fall! But I failed at finding a lipstick that matched up well with it.. 

So tomorrow.. I am heading back to the store.. I am getting another one of those lipliners in whatever color matches best to the other lipstick I am buying that matches that polish better!!

Will be sure to show you what I find! 

Had fun getting some good deals today!

Later tonight.. I will show you what I got for my kittys!

Ohh.. and I almost forgot.. 

I got my baby's some birthday cards too while I was there! They are growing up so fast on me. This year.. I am sending cash for the first time ever for their birthdays.. It kinda feels weird not getting gifts for them but I thought they would have fun shopping and I also liked the idea of saving on the shipping!!

Thanks for reading!

Deeply Violet...

 

My nails were looking kinda banged up so I decided to give this color a try...I had it sitting in my bathroom for months and have never tried it..

I know its a little dark for summer but being fall is right around the corner I could get away with this!!

I am actually loving it!

Sweet Dreams

I always love dreaming..

Dreams are beautiful things.

 From fairytales to adventures it's basically like your mind writing a novel!!!

So the next time you are going to bed, promise yourself that when you wake up you'll immediately try and remember what you just dreamed!!!

And feel free to email me and tell me about it!

kishajaggers@aol.com

............................................................................................

I wasn't going to write anything else for the night but I changed my mind!

By the way.. comments only through email are working great. I get more people talking to me now than I did before.. Who would have guessed right? But I think since you have to sign in to leave a comment, email is actually easier sometimes. Thanks everyone for adjusting. I really felt it was the right thing to do and I am very happy to see that people still have things to say.. but the nasty stuff is gone. I haven't had one mean email. That might change now.. but its a much better way of controlling the crazy people out there!

So how did every one's Sunday go?

It went pretty easy for us. Scott got up and went to play golf.. He came home and took a nap while I straightened things up a bit around here. I decided late last night that today was going to be as easy as I wanted it to be. I was tired and sad when I went to bed last night and today was about taking it easy.. and not letting anything more bother me..

So we had to go look at that house tonight..

Here are the few pictures from it..

Here is the front.. Its a nice home.. but needs some flowers and love around the outside!

It has this deck on the back off the kitchen area..

The right side of the house..

The left side..

Neighbors across the street..

So we went in. There was a family of 4 or maybe 5 still living inside.So I didn't get any pictures. A lot of the house was already packed up. But as Scott and I walked through it.. it was much nicer than either of us expected. So we called the owner and told them we loved it. So tomorrow we are filling out the application and we will have to wait to see if they approve us! Lets hope so!

Scott and I ran by the grocery on the way home... we were ready for an adult friendly meal.

Got some steaks on the indoor grill. I would have put them on the outside grill but was out of charcoal and didn't realize it until it was time to cook..

Cut up some asparagus and put some potatoes in the oven..

Steamed the asparagus..

and dinner was served!!

We both loved it.. I sure miss the kids but I don't miss the corn dogs,  chicken nuggets, and all the kid food!

Also today in the mail came a new necklace that I ordered..

Its the top one.. I think its really pretty.. Its kinda heavy so I don't see myself wearing this every day but I think it will jazz up a sweater in the fall or just add a little more sparkle to any outfit!

After dinner we sat around just being lazy. Scott eventually went back into the bedroom, giving me some alone time.. I needed it... I used it to ..

Paint my nails.. Yep.. I went red this time.. Can you believe it!!?? And I am shocked that I didn't make a mess of my nails! I had to wait patiently for them to dry but with this Sally Hansen Insta Dri polish it makes it a lot easier! This color is # 280 ~ Rapid Red ~ . Its so strange looking down and seeing my nails red. I don't know what made me pick red but I did!

Well..

these 2 start school tomorrow/today. Its really sad that I am not there with them for this big day of theirs. God.. I hate it.. I really do. But I want them to have a great day.. a great year.. and fill those brains up with knowledge. Those kids are my heart.. No other person on this planet makes my heart melt like they do. I got a couple of emails about that ex husband of mine.. and I appreciate the support. Its not easy but I must say that God himself has not invented the man that will stand between me and my kids. So I will deal with the ex husband and just keep moving forward. Hes just a person.. and no better than anyone else..but I can assure you he feels he is.. Not many people can tolerate him for any length of time.. hopefully that won't happen with the kids. I want them to love him. But it would sure be nice if he grew up quicker than they do or we are all in trouble!

Ohhhh.. here is the lamp I got yesterday at Cracker Barrel..

Is that not the cutest thing! I love it.. I put it in the bedroom but I thought it was so cute that I had to put it out where people could see it! I think if I find another one.. I might just have to pack it up and send it off to my friend in California! I think she would love it too!

I just realized I am out of sleeping pills.. Not good..I would run out but its late for that. The nearest gas station is 10 minutes away.. So looks I am going to be digging through the cabinets trying to find some kind of cold medicine to knock me out. I have serious problems falling asleep.. I have for years and I have a hard time getting up.. go figure.

Don't really know what time Scott's daughter is going to get here tomorrow. She sent me a text telling me they were staying at the beach most of the day...and from there it will be a 4 hour drive for them. So I am guessing that it will be in the late afternoon or evening before they arrive. That gives me a little extra time to get things done around here. Its not in bad shape.. Just needs a little work. But I do have to go shopping to get some groceries.

I want to start reviewing the new make up I got from the Nuance line. I will try working on those this week when I have the spare time to do it. I really need to break out the calender and get everything wrote down and planned out. Maybe I can even start that before I go to bed. I have lots on my plate right now.. But going to...

and keep just moving through the hectic times and before you know it.. I will be here..

↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓

with the love of my life and my beautiful family making our way to..

The beaches of Mexico..

I cant wait to..

take it all in while holding hands with him. I am feeling pretty blessed even with the kids gone. I really have found what so many are searching for. I have a love that is growing stronger by the day.. and I couldn't imagine being without him. So this trip is going to really really mean a lot to us.

We have exactly..

=)  =) =) =) =) =) =) =) =) =) =) =)

How exciting!!!

Now I know I am not going to sleep if I keep thinking of this trip!

Well.. its late..and I need to go rummage the house for something to help me sleep!

xoxo

Have a great Monday!
