Stash Dash: Nov 13 – 19

It was good to have a slightly slower pace on the blog this past week! I’ll be continuing with 2 or 3 messages a week until the end of November.

Here are the messages that when up last week, in case you were too preoccupied with viewing the very Moon:

Project Pan: MAC Powder blush in Cubic

Using this blush daily has really made me appreciate it again! After project pan is over, I’ll likely not touch this blush for another 6 months though, because I’ll be so exhausted of it!

MyLipAddiction.com charm Podcast:
a Yank and 2 Canucks Talk about the us Election

It’s not about charm but I’m really happy of this!

Sephora VIB Sale fall 2016 Haul

So numerous Pretties!

Schtuff

• I went into the COS store for the first time – the stuff if so pricey for what they are!  In case you’re not familiar with COS, it’s a clothing store owned by H&M. It’s higher-end and has a very minimalist Scandinavian / Japanese aesthetic. I did eye this glass bobble necklace:

The bobbles are made of hollow glass like Christmas ornaments and feels so weightless and floaty.  Even though it costs C$70… I can’t stop thinking about it. I might get it – what do you think?

• Went out for dinner on Thursday with some girlfriends I haven’t seen in a few months. It was really good to see them! We chatted about so numerous things (the election, jobs, relationships, clothes, and MAKEUP) and I drank a bit much more than I ought to on a weeknight. My voice was a bit hoarse the next day.

Source.  We were seated at the best side along the mirrored wall.
We also had fantastic food at a still fairly new restaurant in town called Piano Piano.  It’s the second time I’ve been there but their first – I would describe the food as unpretentious comforting Italian fare: we ate pizza and pasta.

• My SO and I went to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to find Them and it was fairly entertaining. It’s darker than Harry Potter films (especially the earlier ones) and I felt there were some pacing issues, but the film sets up the new world and characters well for future films. One gripe I have though: Eddie Redmayne annoys the heck out of me! He’s a mumbler and I find him creepy, not endearing. Also, the term “No-Maj” was the best they could come up with as the American word for “Muggle”?!! Really!  What about “Naybler” or “Boolee”. I just made those up in less than 15 seconds and they [subjectively] suck less than “No-Maj”! Overall, I give this film 7/10

• I finally got my flu shot for this year – I’ve been getting a flu shot each year because I was in high school.  It’s not a miracle cure but I usually do not get full-blown knocked-on-my-ass sick during the flu season. I find it funny that it is always the people who say they “don’t believe in it” and never get the flu shot, who are sick as a dog every flu season, without fail.

How was last week for you?
