I love…

… incredible student makeup at IMATS. So inspiring!

… glitter and rainbows (Lit Cosmetics display at IMATS Toronto).

… finding unique eyeshadow shades (Joe Fresh Eyeshadow in Pagoda, $4 from the Fall collection).

… jewel tones (YSL Palette in Nº 11 Midnight Garden, $72 from Fall 2011 collection).

… anything by Giorgio Armani (Giorgio Armani Madre Perla Face and Eye Palette, $150 from the Holiday collection).

… cats. This guy is a Burmese kitteh and he has such a pretty face.

… my own cat, Scherbatsky of course. Hi Scherbie!

… this boy, who is now my fiancé (Photo taken at Niagara-on-the-Lake, one of the highlights of my summer).

… and taking silly photos.

I’m not very chatty today, but hopefully all these beautiful and happy pictures made you smile. How are you?

Usually my link round ups are purely beauty related. This week, my scatterbrained self is bringing you links from the beauty blogosphere, cat lady world, and other awesome random things on the web.

Jenny shows us a look inspired from Chanel Couture 2011 runway. I’m also slightly (just slightly!) jealous of her shiny black hair. [My Funny Valentine]

My love for Tarte is not a secret, and Danielle makes me fall harder as she shows the Tarte 8th World Wonder: 2nd Edition from QVC. So beautiful! [Bloomin' Beauty]

This review of Burberry Midnight Brown eyeshadow had me one step closer to the Burberry counter. When will I finally have the guts to get addicted to yet another high end brand? [Café Makeup]

This month, my favourite web series ever started its third and final season. It’s a story about a boy and a girl, and it is very realistic. Each episode is only around 5 minutes, so you can still catch up, you know! [Casual: The Series]

My inner cat lady is thinking “this is the best blog post EVER!” I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so much in my life. [The Bloggess]

I’m sure we’ve all had these moments. You know, the ones where you first lay your eyes on a product and then this: “Oh god, please let it not be limited edition or god forbid, sold out!”

(via Blogdorf Goodman)

Meet Lancôme Erika F Eyeshadow, a product with a huge cult following especially in the US, where it isn’t available. It is green, gold, grey, taupe all woven together to make a beautiful eyeshadow.

This is my life right now. I’m a little afraid to ask the Lancôme counter if this is sold here in Canada. I’m a little afraid of how I’ll feel if they say the N word. What will I do then? Do I start asking for a custom purchase from my international blog friends? Do I start looking on eBay? Should I travel to Europe just to find this beautiful creature of an eyeshadow? What. Will. I. Do?

Oh, if you’re curious about how she looks on a real person (at least I think she’s real ), check out Jen W’s Chanel Fall Runway Inspired FOTD on her blog. How many ways can you say gorgeous?
