Sunday morning as I was standing in the bathroom doing my hair, I peaked out down the hallway to see what Jackson was doing. The minute he saw me, he got the biggest grin on his face (so much so that his pacifier popped out of his mouth).
That is the best thing ever.
It’s the little things that make the most impact in your memory.
As I sat down to write about the three things that made me feel spiffy this week, that popped into my head. Here are the other things that closely followed…
Flowers
For work a couple years ago I got to write the bio for every employee in the company. This meant I got to gather fun info from people which also meant that I read “loves to travel” about 1800 times. One fact I still remember was how one lady buys herself fresh flowers every week. I think that is such a good idea.
To start putting that into practice, I bought flowers for myself at Aldi a couple weeks ago. These are not those flowers.
No, these beauties were delivered to me at work from my thoughtful husband and his 9-month-old accomplice for Mother’s Day!
They have brought me so much happiness every time I look at them, so I’m going to do my best to keep something like this going to lift the mood and help keep the dining room table clear :) Who wants to put the mail under something this magnificent!?
Hairspray
You know what has sold me on TRESemme products? Project Runway. They always have to whisk their models off to the “TRESemme hairproducts room” or whatever Tim says, and it turns out that wad of cash TRESemme dropped in order for him to say that has turned into sales.
I’m sure they’re rapidly making up for the cost of that placement with my $5 hairspray purchase. YOU’RE WELCOME, TRESEMME.
It’s called “Perfectly (un) Done” and it gives you natural movement with all day hold (which, ironically, is also something you’d want from Spanx).
Even though Dove is my go-to hairspray product, I like this because it’s a fine mist spray. You can just hold the button and spsssssssssssssssssssssss *pauses for air* spssssssssssss
Lip Liner
I bought this lip liner to directly match a lipstick I got in one of my beauty boxes and it’s been the best purchase.
I try to go more fuschia with my bold lip because I think red lips make me look like I belong in a terrible teen vampire love story.
This is by Mac and the color is “Fashion Boost.” It stays on my lips all day and makes some of the brighter pink lipsticks I’ve wrongfully bought, more wearable and less clown-like. I love love love it – and highly recommend taking in your favorite lip color to find a pencil that matches.
Hey! This is my second post of Three Spiffy Things so we’re well on our way to having a series, yay!
