What Women Want Expo

Last weekend Jeremy and I worked at the Utah Valley "What Women Want" Expo. So of course I went shopping and this blog is about what I bought (Warning! this post is seriously just about what I bought so you can stop reading now if you want to). The Women's Expo had hundreds of vendors who sell or give away almost everything a women could possible want, from lingerie to baby bows they have it all (no i will not post the lingerie pics). If you have never been to a Women's Expo you are totally missing out!

I wanted to show off the necklace I got for free (the earrings I had to buy)
isn't it so cute! Technically it wasn't completely free. There was this amazing jewelry place called All Jeweled Up that had a deal that if you spent $50 then they would give you this turquoise necklace for free (reg $35). With our Anniversary next month and Christmas shortly after, it wasn't too hard to convince Jeremy this was a perfect time to buy presents : ) I was going to take a pictures of all the jewelry, but when I got out my camera today I couldn't find my anniversary or Christmas presents so I think they have been hidden away until later.

The other thing i got was some makeup. I don't know how you are, but it is so hard for me to do my makeup. It's like there were some girls in this world who were born with the natural ability to know the whats, hows and whens of primping up and than there was the rest of us who have to figure it out one mistake at a time. Well, hopefully this makeup will solve some of my problems. I've only worn it twice, but already I love it!
I can't remember how much I spent on this little kit, but and employee at the booth told me that the sale they were having at the Expo was cheaper than what employees pay for the cosmetics (ya, I'm pretty gullible). You can't really tell from the picture but the smallest container is a dusk-blue eyeshadow that is absolutely stunning. And the best part about buying the makeup is that they taught me how to use it!

That is all I bought. Thanks for enjoying it with me!

Sorry you weren't feeling good. Hopefully you are feeling better now and we'll see you next week! Take care of yourself.
