Hey girls, I need some fashion advice on something: I recently bought a couple pairs of leggings, and I have no idea how to wear them. I have avoided this trend for a couple years now, but I gave in and now I have a black pair and also a pair that sort of looks like dark denim. They were cheap, so I don't necessarily feel guilty about getting them and having them sit in my closet. However, I really do want to feel comfortable and confident in them! I know leggings are not pants, so I want to make sure I don't feel too exposed.

So how do you girls wear them? What do you think of the trend in general? I think they are here to stay, especially this time of year. Your advice is greatly appreciated and honest opinion much needed
Thanks!

You eventually get it! If you read my "Kreative Blogger" post, you know that I have been searching high and low for a MAC Dsquared lipstick in Nude Rose. I went on MakeupAlley, but no luck there. I searched on Ebay, but the bids were insanely high. I called MACPRO, but they didn't have any left either. I lastly did a live chat with a Nordstrom representative, and although she was Super helpful, she could not locate one for me either. So I pretty much gave up and decided that because it was so popular, MAC would probably repromote it in a future collection.
So yesterday, I went to the Nordstrom by my school to check out the half-yearly sale. You girls should definitely go when you get a chance! They have great deals right now. Well after buying a dress and a wide belt, I decided to go upstairs and look at the MAC counter. I knew that asking about the nude rose l/s was pointless, but I went for it anyway. well...






They had ONE left! And the girl seriously had to DIG for it in the drawer! I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to have this in my possession. It's everything I thought it would be - a little nude, a little pink. My favorite combo!
I also got the mini pigment set in Sexpot. If you want to see swatches of those, let me know.

I decided to be a sailor girl this year, the same as last year ;) I honestly didn't have much time to get a costume together because I have been crazy busy with school. But I had a great Halloween with the best friend anyways. I unfortunately didn't take many pictures, only one actually! I wanted to post this mainly for Crystal's Halloween contest! I love her blog, and I'm sure you do too:
