Meg: Five Things

It has been a little bit since my last โ€˜Five Thingsโ€™ post, and I have some fun things to share with you! This is definitely more of a winter-themed โ€˜Five Thingsโ€™, despite Tucsonโ€™s 80-degree weather. I know those of you living places not lacking winter weather are rolling your eyes, but it doesnโ€™t feel like the holidays without frosted windshields and nightly fires in the fireplace. Okay, Iโ€™m done complaining!

1. New Wedding Shoes

Five1

You may remember that I bought a pair of shoes for the wedding a while ago. Sadly, they ended up being much too tall and with little to no grip on the bottom (Iโ€™m not trying to be the bride that tripsโ€ฆ). I was thrilled when I stumbled upon these lovelies at Macyโ€™s!

ย 2.ย Cream Sweater

Five2

My favorite H&M purchase in a while! This cream sweater is the perfect length and is a new staple in my โ€œwinterโ€ wardrobe. It looks adorable with a scarf and leggings or dark skinny jeans and wedges! Nothing beats a great sweater ๐Ÿ™‚

3. Winter Make Up

Five3

Lโ€™Orealโ€™s translucent finishing powder is perfect to set a full face of make up before a holiday party. It also gives you a flawless look without adding color if you donโ€™t wear pressed powder. The Neutrogena 3-in-1 Eye Concealer is a concealer, eye cream, and SPF 20 all in 1! The eye creamย ย in this concealer gives dried out eyes the chance to heal while hiding any bags or dry skin. LOVE.

4. Long Necklaces

Five4

Long necklaces give outfits a really effortless look. My newest necklace has pearls and โ€œdiamondsโ€ which give comfy looks an added polish!

5. Needlepoint

Five5

ย If you get a chance, visit Alyssa over at Sick City Needlepoint: (http://www.etsy.com/shop/SickCityNeedlepoint?ref=seller_info)

She made us the most adorable needlepoint for the wedding, and it will be our first decoration in our future home ๐Ÿ™‚ She does custom needlepoint work in 7โ€ and 10โ€ options. This might just make the sweetest gift for some of my girlfriends!

Which five things are you loving right now? I always find such great inspiration in the things you all share with me!

    If you like shopping online Zara is one of the stores that I love love. Zara has nice and trendy clothes plus the shipping and returns are free. I love it and I am sure you would too. Check it out sometimes!! I just ordered pants last night and I can’t wait to get them so I can try them on.

    I’ve been searching for a new, great eye concealer, and I think I might have to try this one! Because the skin under my eyes is dry, my concealer always looks awful (and I really, really need it to cover my under eye circles. Regardless of how much sleep I get, I look like a zombie!) Thanks for the recommendation!

    Looove that sweater. I’ve been looking for a new winter sweater about that length so thanks for this – going to check out H&M this weekend! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Those were my wedding shoes too – I just got married in September. Great height and comfy! The brand is Bandolino.

    The wedding shoes are gorgeous. I still haven’t even found a dress for my wedding so I can’t pick shoes until that’s done. I want a simple shoe because I plan to have a sparkly dress.

    I’ll have to give that eye cream a shot!

  10. Julie on December 7, 2012 at 2:58 pm

    That necklace would look great w/ your new sweater! Love them both!

    I also love your sweater!! Totally going to get one in the next few weeks when I go to h&m. Also going to try out the makeup, I’m sorely lacking in makeup selections
