The latest copy on Teen Vogue. (Have you seen the Juicy Couture ads?! I thought with ball gowns you wore stuff that made you like all princess-y, but Juicy Couture has shown me that racking half a dozen sunglasses on each arm over you gloves is just as nice.)
Bad Kitty, by Michele Jaffe. (One word: hilarious. I love it. A literary spa AND a mystery! What could be better?!)
Mediator 6, by Meg Cabot. (Have I mentioned I have a major horror/ghost book fetish? These books have ghosts AND Prada!)
Burts Bees Lipbalm Lip Shimmers in Champagne. (Which I am loving. It's sparkly!!! I'll wear it during the day with no other make-up to make it more casual, but during the evening (even though I'm a homebody, and I stay home and blog and read and watch TV. The exictment is unbearable.) I'll pair it maybe with some lilac eye-shadow.)
Which brings me onto an important point: not spending is not good. There was a study done recently on being happy, and one of the things was buying yourself a affordable treat now and then. It makes you happy, plus it's good for your wallet. How so? Well, it's like someone who goes on a diet. They don't eat any chocolate for months and then they have a "treat" and end up eating loads. This happens with money as well. If you don't spend anything for ages, when you do spend you'll go on a binge. Therefore it's perfectly reasonable to buy yourself some lipgloss or a movie ticket now and then.
PS: No, Prada is not an affordable treat.
PPS: Neither are Manolo Blahniks.

I love the Mediator series! The last one kind of made me tear up in the end, though.
And the Champagne one ties for my favorite, too! I love how it doesn't sparkle that much but it has that shimmer that catches the light- I also love watermelon. It is a very summery color, like you can tell it's there and it looks like you put more effort into...um...coloring your lips (?) than you really did.
