Time for the Winter 2014  +Nordstrom  Beauty Trend Show. With  +Franci  by my side, we sat front row enjoying an unobstructed view of the latest work, play and holiday fashion as well as makeup and skincare specialties from the beauty department. We're always treated to a shopping tote of varying kind with water, juice, coffee and mini muffins and fruit to satisfy early morning hunger.

From the very first swipe, I know it had to be mine. Described as sangria , Palais Royal by +NARS Cosmetics is the prefect glass of red wine. Purchased from +Nordstrom , it features a creamy, saturated satin finish. And I mean creamy. It is wonderfully lightweight but oh so creamy. This Lip Pencil is destined to be my Fall go-to lip shade, it is so flattering without competing for attention against my hair. Easy to apply and simple to sharpen, Palais Royal , named after a palace located in the 1st arrondissement of Paris, will work beautifully on all skin tones. xoxo •Nancy-Lee No filter.

It started on Instagram.  +Nordstrom Rack    reposted a picture of these  +kate spade new york   earrings I have had my eyes on and it sent me on a mission. I wanted those earrings and I didn't want to pay full price and finding them at The Rack would be a dream. So the search began. Westgate Rack is my home store so that's where I headed and once again, it did not disappoint.
