kate spade NEW YORK Holiday Lip Crayons

NEW YORK

 You might remember these from last year 

They sold out so quickly i never had the chance to get my hands on them.  So you can imagine when i came across the set for this Holiday 2013 i did not hesitate!

This years Holiday lip crayons are a set of three soft and creamy lip pencils with a metallic sheen finish.  As usual i simply adore the packaging. Just keep in mind, if you decide to purchase these, the box packaging is made of cardboard NOT plastic like i had imagined it would.

Geez you would think i was sponsored by kate spade NEW YORK.  It seems its all my posts are on something kate spade HAHAHA sorry im not i just love all the fun, girly and quirky things she releases.  Too bad i cant really afford the clothing... maybe one day ;p

New York Botanical Gardens Holiday Train Show 2013

  I visit the New York Botanical Gardens often.  But its simply magical during the Holiday Season. 

  If you are ever in NYC during the holidays, I highly recommend a visit to see the train show and the garden dressed up for Christmas.  

  Model trains chooo choooo their way around landmark replicas made from nature ie bark, nuts, leaves etc. 

  And of course don't forget to visit the Garden Shop!  It's overpriced but its just so lovely decorated for  Xmas.

Kate Spade Live Color Fully Perfume in Limited Edition Holiday Gold Bottle

LIVE
COLOR 
FULLY

Kate Spade's fragrance Live Color Fully in a  Limited Edition Gold bottle for the Holidays.

Have I ever mentioned how I love packaging.  I have been known to make purchases purely on packaging and presentation. Yes i know im nuts.  I totally should have gone into packaging design instead when i was a student at FIT.  

Anyways this bottle is BEAUTIFUL!  Its all Gold with a lovely bow as the topper.  It's classy  and darling. Its actually pretty heavy and fortunately for me i think it smells divine.  It has notes of madarin, anise, amber, musk, vanilla and a few other notes.  Though I must say Its a pretty strong scent and a bit overwhelming for me but i put just a spray on one wrist and spread the love to other areas. 

Now I know scents are extremely personal BUT trust me the BOTTLE! lol I just love it.    This would make a lovely holiday gift.  I think any women would love to have this to display on their vanity.  I originally saw it on the kate spade website sadly no longer available.  But luckily i found it on the Nordstrom website you can view it here ---->  kate spade live color fully

Now not too long ago i was my sister's place going through her stuff.  Baby sisters do that kinda stuff ;p.  And i came across her Clinique eyeliner and was intrigued by the unique color.  So i sharpened and decided to try in on... I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT! yes i did! Let me tell you i don't wear eyeliner like ever unless i go out to a club or lounge and i haven't do that in YEARS! I loved the liner the color is black honey its a brown black with a hint of burgundy.

I decided to pick one up when i discovered this liner color is NOT sold separately! WHY NOT! UGH! however im glad it worked out this way because i found it in the set which is currently available for the holiday season 2013.  

I actually love every product in the kit.  The shadows are lovely.  I didn't think these shades would complement my skin tone.  However it turns out they did!!! The nail color is a lovely berry and the lip color is my second favorite (first obviously the liner).
