'Tis the season to spend like crazy...fa la la la lah - la la la lahhhhh.
So much to buy, don't be lazy...fa la la la lah - la la la lahhhhh .


Wellllll? Anything specific you're planning on buying this holiday season? Got your eye on anything special for xmas? Planning your haul for the upcoming semi-annual sale starting right after xmas?

Plan away...share your purchases (in theory anyway), and reassure yourselves that you aren't alone ...we're shopping like just like you .

I need to get more stuff from the L'Occitane Grape line .

Got a L'Occitane Lavender & Blackberry Smooth-On Shower Paste.

This is Limited Edition so I want to get as many of them as I can before they're no longer available. SOOOO good !!!

L'Occitane Lavender & Blackberry Smooth-On Shower Paste.

Wow Kimmer that fragrance sounds great. I love lavender and berry scents by themselves - I wonder how they would smell together?

Anemone - It smells absolutely incredible. Definitely true to it's name...if you're fond of lavender and berry scents, I would HIGHLY recommend this product. The lavender smells exactly the way lavender grown in France would smell, and the blackberry smells exactly like blackberry extract. The marriage between the two is absolutely decadent! Sinful !

went to marshalls today, hunting for pink
sugar, i only found the bath cubes, but this is the first time i ever have seen this product
after so many raves on this board about this
scent i really really it.
i cant wait to try this one.

I ordered some roll-ons from IoE in the following scents:
Frosted Bunny Cake
7 Strawberry Lane
Pink Cherries
Pumpkin Frappuccino
Strawberry Pink Sugar

I got my hair cut & highlighted today. This is only the 2nd time this yr. I've gotten my hair cut & the 1st time in 2 yrs. that I've gotten it highlighted. My hair stylist also gave me a holiday goodie bag that included 2 travel sized Redken hairsprays & a candy cane. I'm keeping the candy cane, but I'll either be swapping or fraffling off the hairsprays.

That does sound yummy! I don't believe I've ever tried L'Occitane products. Maybe tis the season to start!

Hey Fryl, let us know how that new red duffel bag is when you get it. I don't need another duffel bag, but I can't help feeling curious about the new one.

Megan, what color highlights did you get? I'm curious as to what looks good on red hair. Mine is reddish-brown and I've been thinking of getting highlights on it.

I'll definitely let you know. I got it because I like the fact that it's made out of canvas.

I got a good deal too.

I need to stop peeking in this thread!

After seeing all of the yummy stuff all of you are describing (and recommending), I broke down and placed a sephora order.

I ordered:

Laurence Dumont Vanille Chocolat 3.4 oz edt.
Laurence Dumont Vanille Abricot 3.4 oz edt.
Laurence Dumont Vanille Orientale Set
(5) Triple Layer Cake Washes (BBW Rawks and Fryl are to blame for this!!)
Indulgences Whipped Body Delights in Marshmallow Fluff.
Sephora girls Mischevious Edt (Fryl's suggestion AGAIN!)

I stopped in Marshalls yesterday to look for chocolovers and no luck again.

But I found something really yummy! It is a HUGE 3 in 1 33.3 oz. bottle for just $3.99. It is called Powdered Sugar Scent and it is DELICIOUS. It is in pretty bottle with snowflakes and a snowman in front. I wish I would have bought 2 of these. I wish that they would have a lotion in this (and a splash).

Oooh - I hope you love the TLC wash, noelle!!!!!

That Powdered Sugar stuff sounds amazing!!! *tempted to stop by Marshalls this afternoon*

BBWRawks,

You HAVE TO stop in Marshalls today to check it out!

I am sure I will love the Triple Layer Cake.

Uh oh, Noelle. I am sorry for tempting you.
You'll love the TLC though. I had to warm up to it because I didn't expect it to smell the way it does but it's an amazing scent nonetheless!
I have 15 bottles on the way that's how much I like it now!

Also, good choice for the Sephora Girls EdT, the strawberry one isn't as good, but the Mischievous (blackberry) is really nice.
I also liked the cotton candy and raspberry ones, but they don't really stand out either.

I got my Laura Mercier Bronzing Book today.
It's gorgeous. I think I have found a new brand to "collect".

Lovey- Ohhhh boy ...part of me wants to tell you to go for it and the other part of me wants to spare you the added addiction . Soooo good!!!

I definitely recommend giving L'Occitane a try . It has become one of my favorite brands. Especially the Lavender Harvest and Crushed Grape lines .

If you DO give it a shot, let me/us know what you thought .


BBW Rawks- It's even more tempting AFTER you've tried it LOL . Delish!!!


Kels- Your order sounds wonderful ...I can't wait for you to get it already so you can tell us what you think . I need to do the same LOL.
