Yas! I feel like I haven’t gone shopping at an actual store in years! Online shopping has honestly been my go-to for the past two years. So honestly, I haven’t really gone to the mall and shopped at multiple stores for myself in forever! I also had done some online shopping as well since I had a ton of Christmas money to spend.
H&M
Do these items look familiar? Well if you read my New Year Eve Outfit Ideas post then you’ve seen both of these! Which is exactly why they don’t have an H&M bag, I accidentally threw it away after taking the New Years Eve Outfit pictures. The black sparkly blend fabric and the triangle sunglasses are really in right now! I got the dress for $9.99 and the glasses for $12.99.
MAC
From MAC I had to pick up a new brow pencil and a brow gel. I completely ran out, which I actually get excited about because if you return six empties to MAC you get a free $17 lipstick. So, right now I’m at three!
Sephora
Of course I spent money at Sephora, I feel that was to be expected! What I purchased at the store was the Makeup Forever Lustrous Shadow Palette and the Rose Face Mask. Online I purchased a Natasha Denona eyeshadow palette and got a bunch of samples in a makeup bag with the code: METIME which requires a $35+ purchase.
Forever 21
I haven’t stepped foot into a Forever 21 since high school, which was three years ago, but I’m kinda glad I did. I found some super cute fashionable trousers and some cute gel eye masks in the shape of strawberries (a symbol of my sorority which I thought was a cute reason to purchase)!
Chanel
Technically I didn’t pay for it but my boyfriend surprised me by buying Soleil Tan De Chanel. This is an amazing bronzer that I’ve wanted badly for a while! It also came with a duster-bag full of samples. Super thankful for this one!
Michael’s
I needed to purchase some items to do crafts for my Little so I went to Michael’s and got a 10-pack of 8×10 canvases, a 2-pack of larger canvases, a wooden crown (another symbol of my sorority), and a slice of a tree. I can’t wait to do some Little crafting!
Target
And lastly, I ran to Target for literally no reason, which always seems to be a good reason to go to Target, and I got Real Techniques blending sponges and an Elf lip primer and plumper.
This concludes my frivolous spending of Christmas money. So I hope you enjoyed this haul and comment down below your favorite item or if you saved/spent your holiday money.
-Stay Chic,
