#YouShouldRead: 10 Things Every Woman Needs in Her Makeup Wardrobe

I read an article called "10 Things Every Woman Needs in Her Makeup Wardrobe" in Real Simple Magazine that I thought would prove helpful to anyone and decide to repost it. Enjoy!

iWant: More of this fall's must haves.

Shopkicks never ceases to amaze me. Their segment from the InStyle beauty lists several things that are absolutely essential for fall. Among those I singled out things that I either already own or plan to add to my wardrobe.

I would definetly pair these with an awesome pair of high waisted cigarette jeans in a casual setting or a LBD in a more formal setting. They're such a classic investment. Everyone should have  a pair. 

That whole toothpick wrist thing totally  hurts me in tho department. When I usually try this trend, they end up flying around or off my minuscule wrist. The challenge? Finding bracelets small enough to stay on my wrist while also big enough to get over my balled up fist.

This trend looks awesome but I'm totally afraid to damage my ear lobes! More so that I've been determined to find lighter alternatives to this trend.Since feathers are no longer in style, I'm SOL.

OOTD: Rampage Top & Jeans

This outfit is what happens when the stars align & you bring out the big guns.

Top

Rampage. (when Rampage was still a retail store and before it was by way of Macy's) I purchased this back in 2005 when I was working in a little legal office. It was purchased to be somewhat of a Monday morning top. It has survived through the years and hasn't fit for a while due to eating my feelings and birth control weight gain but now that I'm losing some weight again, it actually fit & I thought it was perfect for another Monday morning office action.

Jeans.

Victoria's Secret (by way of Plato's closet) What a find. So fortunate to find jeans that fit my 4'10 height!

Shoes.

Steve Madden (by way of Macy's). Purchased for a wedding, but trust me, these are a sexy staple that will be making a ton of appearances on this blog.

Ridiculous Deal: Steve Madden godsends

I got these shoes from Macy's to go to my friend Monica's wedding last week. They were so sexy that I needed to have them! 

I got them on a ridiculous sale because as everyone knows, if you have a Macy's card, you can save a crapload of money.

I bought her wedding gift, these shoes (retail 70$) and a 3 set of earrings for 63$.AND I got the last size 6 in Macy's in the state of Florida... I had to buy the pair on display! (Don't worry though I cleaned them with alcohol.)

63$ I didn't believe the sales girl when I paid but believe me, I didn't argue. It was like getting the gift (a knives set) & earrings for free!

So here they are, the newest staple. I love them because they're comfortable enough for 4" heels, they're sexy as hell & sophisticated enough to wear to work. 

Steve Madden Heels ($70, Macy's)

Steve Madden ♥ You hit it out of the park with this one!
