Thursday favorites and an explaination

Before the favorites, here is an excuse explanation of why I haven't been blogging.

I didn't feel like it.

Now, onto fun things!

I decided to do a little Thursday favorites post cause we know I love em! I love seeing people's favorite things.  Hence my lipstick collection. :)  At least I'm not on the streets....

Candy Crush.  I don't even know where my time has gone.  Oh yes I do.  To Candy Crush.  Maybe someday I will beat level 65.  Probably not though.  Am I a gamer now?

My favorite self-tanner, St. Tropez. It's a little pricey, but I'm willing to pay it.  And it lasts forever.  Also get the mit and you will never see tan palms! I just saw this deal on tv.  It's pretty amazing. 

I just looked online for this candle to show you and apparently it's a pretty good find!  I found the first one at Marshalls and the next 3 at TJ Maxx.  I just liked the container, but they smell soooo good.  And they are 4.99.  Retails for $28.

P.S.  Check out Mabelline Color Sensational Lipcolors.  So I've heard.  I heard that Peachy Scene and Pink and Proper are amazing colors....

What's in your bag?

Have you ever seen the posts that people put online about what is in their purse/bag/manbag, etc?  I am always intrigued for some reason.  Sometimes it helps me get a good organization idea or it might just be a good motivator to clean the endless pit pretty purse out.  Sometimes I see something more to add to my purse.  So, I dumped it out and took pics for ya.  Do I feel better?  Sure.  Do I think I have too much stuff in my purse?  Maybe at the end I do...:0
