The newest OPI collection (for September) is Peanuts (Charles Schulz) inspired! More specifically, inspired by the classic Halloween cartoon; It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! I am definitely going to get my hands on Good Grief and probably one of the sparkles, most likely To Beagle or Not to Beagle.

I never know when I come around, what I'm gonna find, don't let them make up your mind, don't you know, girl you'll be a woman soon

Urban Decay is one of my favourite cosmetic brands. The Naked palletes are fabulous; they also have a wide selection of bright colours. Urban Decay fans are loyal, they know that the product is quality and long-lasting as well as unique and fun.

And now the most exciting thing about UD is...

Announced via their Instagram, they are releasing a Pulp Fiction collection, this Autumn.

Since it is one of my favourite movies, I am very excited. The collection is basically an ode to Missus Mia Wallace, who is without a doubt one of the coolest chicks to appear on the big screen, like, ever. So,

and buy something from the collection, duh

It will include a red lipstick, a red lipstick liner, and red nail polish - all named "Mrs. Mia Wallace", an eyeshadow palette with four shades: "Righteous" - a pale peach colour, "Tyranny" - a brown colour, "Vengeance" - an even darker brown colour, and "Furious/Anger" - which is actually a split of white and black. And finally, to top it all off, there is a Heavy Metal liquid liner in a sparkly silver by the name of "Gunmetal".

It's going to be out July 16th! How will I restrain myself from buying every single item? I really don't know. I'm a collector at heart.

The prices will range from $19-$34 CAD, very affordable in my opinion.

I'm so glad Urban Decay decided to pay homage to Pulp Fiction; my favourite Tarantino movie and one of the greatest movies of all time. It is proof that cult classics will live on forever and I personally think it's very cool that Uma Thurman's character from '94 is still inspiring fashion and beauty.

60's Avon lipstick

I've been looking at vintage Avon products on Flickr, Pinterest, and Etsy. Here is a quick edit I did of some cool lipsticks from an Avon ad dated April 1966 (from The Ladies' Home Journal) via The Bees Knees Daily on Flickr

"Two for the sun... two for the moon! Avon tints your lips with pinks and corals - shimmery and chic in prints. Do collect a pair or two of these saucy new lipsticks for making merry, for sheer charm. Only your Avon Representative can bring you the new 'Chic Sparklers' with matching nail enamel. Whether you shimmer by sun or moon is up to you!"

my attraction paralyzes me, no courage to show my true colors that exist, but I want to be the real thing

The newest OPI collaboration is with the one and only Gwen Stefani. I worship the ground she walks on! I would really like to buy every single shade just for the sake of having it and probably keeping it forever. I would have liked to see some brighter colours but they are very Gwen.
