Long Lost Friend

After an extended hiatus, I'm back.

I've started my last semester as a college student and yes, I'm still in denial that my career as a student is ending rather quickly.

I wish I could say that I've done something crazy, some type of college senior "mid-life" crisis. (If that's even possible. I've contemplated getting a tattoo (Sorry mom), going to Panama City for Spring Break (Not happening), and actually the crazy list stops there. Except most wouldn't identify those things as crazy.

Instead, I chose to get another internship and a job —I  know I'm a daredevil. I now am interning for another site and am a sales associate for a company I have loved the moment I laid eyes on it.

So I'm back and I leave you with the only song on my iTunes. Ok, the only song I've been listening to for the past hour.

iCan't Wait

Within the next few weeks or so I will get my hands on an iphone 4s, which also means I will be needing a fabulous case(s) to go with it. 

As in my own true nature, I've already been scouring for cases before I have the phone.

I'm goo-goo'ed eyed over how artsy and unique this case is. And at $35 its perfect.

I'm a firm believer that red is a neutral and so is leopard. Kate Spade you will always have my heart.

My current phone has taken several beatings. A customized Otterbox may be my number 1 choice.

Which one will win out?

Oh Iris

According to my interview with the Global Brand President of MAC cosmetics, found here, (I know!! I'm still giddy over it too) she exclaimed that MAC releases 54 make-up collections a year. So there is at least one new collection every week; only furthering my love for MAC.

I guess they decided that I needed to love them even more. MAC is releasing an exclusive Iris Apfel collection.

One can only hope to be as fabulous as she is when one is older. Actually, can I just be her now?

If I'm really lucky   If my wallet is feeling really generous, the collection will be mine on Jan. 5th. Most importantly....

How many more days until January 5th?

Don't Give Me Lippy

Fun Fact: I've never finished a chapstick, lip balm, lip gloss or lipstick.
I don't like the taste of most of those lip products, considering that I munch like a goat eating everything in sight. However, I have struck gold and its about to run out for the first time ever.

Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm in Black Tea and Blackberry

Love at first sight touch  lip application

The formula isn't sticky and doesn't make all of your food taste like black tea and black berries. Its very light, and works for awhile without constant need of reapplication. SPF 25 is the cherry on the cake.  The line is mainly for guys, but this it works wonders for this gal.

Try it...or don't because that just means there is more for moi.

Buy it, try it, love it here

Drop the Sequins and Shake your Tail Feather

Hi I'm Sabel and I am a huge advocate of all things bright, glittered and SEQUINED. The more loud and obnoxious the more I am attracted to it. I don't completely throw my subdued tastes out the window, but if Lisa Frank were still around with truck loads of glitter attached...well those aforementioned tastes would be up in flames.

That isn't the case thank goodness, but there's a different take that I find more chick chic (yes, I completely intended in the play on words.)

Feathers, Feathers, Feathers. Maybe I'm strangely attracted to them from the amazing costumes from Black Swan (actually, no because I've never seen that movie and I still have an image of graceful, non-creepy ballerinas in my head). Regardless, I'm aiming to add what feathers I can to my wardrobe.

In any case if you still want to pass on the feathers, like I said before, there are still sequins and...Lisa Frank. 

I'll take a Tango with that Tangerine

Pantone announced its color of the year a couple weeks ago and I can fully say that I am in love with it. Although I am still hating saying goodbye to the effervescent honeysuckle (pink is one of my favorite shades), Tangerine I will gladly take a tango with you.
