Mini Lux Haul

Hola friends,

In my last post I mentioned that I went shopping in Madrid. I figured I'd share what I got because a few people asked. Let me just say

End Of Summer

Happy September!!  Who else is excited about Fall?

Last week was hectic for me, work was a little crazy but I'm happy I survived.  It was one of those weeks where every single morning I contemplated on calling out - I didn't tho.  On top of the craziness I wasn't feeling well both mentally and physically.  I have so much to do and its not getting done.  Ugh!!    

On another note I changed my social medias name to reflect this blog.  I used Sasse142 for so many years, I thought about it long and hard and decided Sasse142 isn't who I am anymore.  I came up with that name while sitting on the toilet ha ha.  I needed an AOL screen name and that's what I came up with, Sass E (e for Erika) 142 (the street I lived on).  I haven't lived on that street in over 22 yrs!  I changed everything to (or tried at least) NYCLifeandGlam.  After doing so it felt right, it was meant to be - I'm happy.

So, if you noticed from my pictures I beautified myself for my sister's birthday dinner. Dinner with a burlesque show and it was fun, I loved it, I mean who doesn't love a good Burlesque show, so classy.  It's been a while since I put on lashes or a full face of makeup for that matter.  The lashes made this simple look a bit more dramatic!  I swear if I had the time to put lashes on every day I would!  I love the way they make my eyes look not to mention I feel sexy.  I took the time to use some new FENTY BEAUTY items I bought a while back.  Huge rave for the Killawatt highlighter tho, I used it on my lids and it gave me the perfect amount of glitter 2 thumbs up for sure.  I'm loving Fenty Beauty products so far!  I will list all products below.

I apologize for the poor quality photos.  They were taken with my {very} old iphone.  I had no intentions whatsoever to have a "photo shoot".  The night was perfect and I just decided to go for it.
