Wild on Wednesday: Fall Edition

I haven’t done a Wild On Wednesday (aka Favorite Things) in a while, so this will be pretty random!

A year after admitting defeat with a gorgeous but painful pair of calf-hair Alfani leopard pumps, I needed (yes NEEDED) a replacement pair. So I ordered these Mix No. 6 Barbie pumps in leopard from DSW, and they’ve hardly left my feet since! Compared to what I’m used to, they’re low heels and very comfortable, and even though they’re printed satin, they don’t look cheap. I’ve already worn them to work, church, and a wedding. I might get more colors/prints in this style!

Organix hair products were recently on sale at Kroger, so I decided to try this Moroccan Argan Oil deep treatment I’d been curious about. It’s fantastic! I use it weekly and see a big difference in my hair the next day.

I’m obsessed with eyeliners that have a sponge on the other end for smudging. Apparently they’ve been around for years, but I just discovered them. Related story: I was recently using a brand new eyeliner of this type, and Gandalf (who likes to sit on the dresser near me while I put on makeup) batted it right out of my hand, and I still haven’t found it. I’ve looked everywhere. With a flashlight. It’s like he knocked it into another dimension – maybe the same one where all the lost socks go.

 

What I’m drinking: International Delight Cinnabon in my coffee, and Crystal Light Mojito! (Not at the same time. Yuck.)

The fall fragrances I can’t get enough of in my home: Airwick Apple Cinnamon and Yankee Candle Autumn Leaves. Having burned through the last of my Autumn Leaves (ha ha), I went to Bed Bath & Beyond to stock up, but they didn’t have it! They had all the other fall candles, on sale, but no Autumn Leaves. Crisis! If I still can’t find it in the next couple of weeks, I’ll order it direct from Yankee Candle, because it makes me that happy.

Oh, and switching from an original model Droid Eris to an iPhone 5 is like going from a Ford Taurus to a Ferrari. I didn’t expect the difference to be so pronounced. My Droid took forever to do anything, but the iPhone responds instantaneously. The Droid needed to be charged constantly, but the iPhone holds a charge for two days! Such luxury.
