The Lust List

Thus far Summer 2014 has been filled with "Georgia"- Now Mommy's vacation is quickly approaching...wheels up on Friday and I cannot wait to get a break from Houston. What happened to my "Once a Month" rule of leaving this place?

In preparation of any vacation I always begin slowly as I did with this one:
"Hmmm, I think I have almost everything I need. Maybe one new dress for Friday night..."

Sure enough a manic need takes over and an entire new wardrobe and then some has appeared in my (*cough, *cough) new luggage that was also deemed appropriate to purchase for this particular get-away. It was time to replace the old stuff anyway- Don't judge.
In my haste of ordering, shipping, shopping, etc. I've put together a new "Lust List" of items (old and new) that I want, need or recently purchased for said get- away....

1. Luli Fama Bikini- I've had a few of their cover-ups (the romper style) for a few years now and always receive tons of compliments on it anywhere I go. I just purchased a couple bikinis for this weekend and I'm drooling over them. Can't spoil my picks but peruse the website here and choose for yourself:
www.lulifama.com
I will say- I have looked at these online and was not impressed. It is definitely worth it to go into the store to try them on- the fit, etc. is amazing. I'm sold (x2)!

2. Sephora- "Gimme Brow"- This stuff is amazing. A friend of mine did a write up on her blog about Benefit's "Gimme Brow" at the perfect time for me to stumble upon and read up. She raved so I ran out as fast as I could and picked up a tube. LOVE at first swipe.

3. Lululemon Speed Shorts- The most comfortable running shorts EVER. I think I picked up my first pair last summer in the midst of marathon training and I pretty much made the decision then to not wear anything else. They don't move. No riding up, no falling down. You can actually just run and not worry about your shorts riding up into places you don't want them to go. What a novel idea!

4. NARS Blush/ Bronzer Duo @ Sephora- Speaking of things I can't live without (like shorts that don't ride up) NARS's Blush/ Bronzer duo in Sin/ Casino is on that list. Just another one to share :)

5. Ruthie Davis Emilie Studded Sandals- Every so often one accidentally wears out a pair of her favorite gold shoes and then must hunt down a similar pair to replace. This can be a grueling process because most of the time the particular shoe you were so in love with had something to it that just *went* with everything. I think I've found my gold shoe replacement.
To be put on the "Lust List" for now and added to the collection post vacation ;)

6. YSL Tribute Two Pumps- Another to add to the list. Clearly I need an entire new shoe upgrade across the board.

7. Chanel Shopping Bag- Do I really need to give an explanation on this?

8. Gucci Shades- Time to be an adult and trust myself again with sunglasses that don't come from Target. Georgia isn't into smashing them anymore so the only person I have to worry about is myself...These are so pretty I think I can manage to keep them intact.

9.  Cartier Love Bracelet- A repeat offender on the "list". One day....

10. Watch Mania- So many to choose from:
Cartier Ballon
Michael Kors Bailey
Burberry
Michael Kors Darcy

Now off to the mall again to make sure I have everything I need. Next up Georgia's fall clothing spree...I almost look forward to this every year more than mine ;) Can't wait for her to come back from her vacation and she and I to get down to business!

xoxo
