YSL couture palettes + GWP from Saks

Saks Fifth Avenue is having its bi-annual beauty event and as usual, I was mystified by the beautiful tote bags.  I decided to purchase a few items.  I decided on the white tote bag after much indecision because the creamy off-white main colour looks very chic.  I ordered these from the Saks store in windy San Francisco!  They sent a YSL gift with purchase too, which is a makeup bag, and you know that I collect makeup bags!

YSL now has couture palettes for eye shadow and they look amazing.  I had been doing some research into eye shadows for my Mac palette, and I had been interested in Mac's Brun.  It's a hat's off to my uni/grad school days.  My mum had a gift with purchase from Estee Lauder which included 2 eye shadows and one was dark brown.  It was my go-to for clubbing, social events, you name it.  It's what I was hoping for when I bought Mac's Espresso (which turned out to be more of a chocolatey brown which isn't really dark), and now here we have it in #4 Sahariennes!

I had also had my eye on Mac's Idol Eyes because I wanted a true dramatic silver colour and it looks like my dreams are fulfilled with #8 Avant Garde! I'm not into having more eye shadow palettes just for the sake of collecting, so I definitely do my research beforehand.

 

T-shirt from Versace

Feast your eyes on this t-shirt with the beloved Medusa head from the Versace Fall Winter collection.  It looks sophisticated because of the black and white and also very modern, I feel.  Immediately I knew that it would be perfect with my white True Religion boot cut jeans and nail polish like in the picture below!  You could wear it to a dinner with friends or on a day of sightseeing around museums or on a walk near the waterfront!  I ordered it from the Versace boutique in Soho :-)
