I just love when this happens. Remember when I told you that you can score amazing deals at +Anthropologie after the holidays? Well, I did it again! Originally retailing for $148.00 I scored this AMAZING pair of Elevenses shimmered Tweed trousers for $19.95.  See my first after-holiday haul, here . Drawing upon vintage references, and with a healthy pinch of Anglophilia, Elevenses evokes a mood of modern elegance. The Anthropologie -exclusive Brighton is an incredibly flattering wide-leg trouser that's as comfortable at the office as it is kicking back on the weekend. This trouser was still available online , in size 10, at the time I published this post. Click image to enlarge for detail. Have you made any fashion scores lately? Tell me below how you did! xoxo •Nancy-Lee

I have been getting more adventurous with my polish, adding toppers and layers of lacquer. This is actually the #NOTD that started it all. From the Jenna Hipp for +Costco Wholesale   collection, I applied 2 coats of Private Getaway a red/poppy creme and let fully harden. Then I applied Hollywood Reporter multi-sized silver iridescent glitter in a clear base to the thin edge of a makeup sponge and transferred the glitter particles to the top portion of my nail. Again, I let it fully dry before I added a high shine top coat - I did not want to lift and drag glitter down my nail. Having patience paid off. I LOVE this look! These 2 shades, together, were long lasting, making it 3 days before Private Getaway chipped. With true opacity, this long wear formula get extra points for not staining my nails, I rate them a coveted 5 out of 5 stars. Did you score this set from Costco , Kitten? Which shade(s) have you worn and what were your results? xoxo •Nancy-Lee

#NextOnNails Soooooo I am a little late with this post. From Summer 2013, I scored What's Hot Now, Collection 1 at +Costco Wholesale for only $14.99! Collection 1 is no longer available at Costco but you can still purchase it on Beauty's Most Wanted for $32.00. As a side note, Collection 2 is available on Costco.com and Beauty's Most Wanted . Featuring 12 mini lacquer bottles and 1 nail file, I am going to post these shades over the next few weeks. Join me tomorrow as I start with Private Getaway and Hollywood Reporter . Were you able to grab one of these sets? Tell me below which shade is your favourite.  xoxo •Nancy-Lee

Santa's Lip Scrub by +LUSH Cosmetics   is the most amazing lip scrub I have EVER used. It's a blend of exfoliating Fair Trade sugar and jojoba oil with the most delicious flavour of cola, ever! And I don't even like soda!! I unscrewed the lid from the round glass jar, which was part of the Christmas Kisses gift set, and discovered there were little red hearts sprinkled on top! Check out my Instagram page for a picture, it's worth the look!
