I have been hemming and hawing about writing this post for a few days now, thinking that I should probably post something more substantial since it has been a few weeks since my last post of quality.
But, I couldn't think of anything better to post - so here's my second In and Out post.
IN
- Brand Loyalty. I know, this seems counterintuitive for us beauty junkies who never seem to have enough product in our arsenal. But I must admit, there is odd comfort in being about to count on a brand or two to always deliver quality products that will never disappoint you, and to rely on them for your staple products. I have 4: Maybelline for lip products, Cover Girl for mascara, Clinique for foundation and powder, and NARS for everything else.
- Fall. I came to the realization this year that I have been lying about Summer being my favorite season. It's really not. I love the fall. I'm able to wear sweaters, long pants, wool skirts, buy new boots...it is heaven.
- Sims 3. Now, I only post this because I have recently gotten addicted and have spent way too many of my waking hours playing it. And yes, I currently own all of the available expansion packs.
- TV on the Net. I love the convenience of being able to catch up on my favorite shows on the net. In a world where 90% of the shows I watch come on at the same time on the same damn day, I don't have to worry about sacrificing one show to watch the other.
- The Millennium Trilogy. They're a series of three books by the late Stieg Larsson and I love them to bits. I am currently reading the third and last book in the series.
OUT
- Sims 3. I am putting it here for the same reason I put it as an 'In'.
- The price of TV on DVD. Gossip Girl Season 3 is not worth $55 dollars...and I am not paying that much for it.
- Flavored coffee beverages. I can handle vanilla or mocha - but a Pumpkin Spice Latte? (Lookin' at you, Starbucks) Gag me now! If I wanted to drink pumpkin pie, I would puree it. Thanks, but no thanks.
- It pains me to write this...but Grey's Anatomy. Something is not right with this show now. Maybe it is because the majority of the original cast is gone, and the fact that last season's finale scared me out of me mind...but I am slowly starting to fall out of love with what was once my favorite show on TV.
- Trying to keep up with trends. I give up. I will buy what I love, regardless of if it is trendy or not. I am done trying to keep up with the Jones's. However, I remain addicted to beauty/fashion magazines. Glamour, In Style and Marie Claire remain my faves.
Keep an eye out over the next few days. I will be posting my September favorites and a NARS starter kit list soon!
