I've had a Chanel lipstick for years now that I really loved and have been wanting to replace with a new one, since it was low. Now it was definitely extremely low and wanted to take advantage that I worked at Macy's to get it. It was my last day of work before I would have the two events on Saturday and Sunday and flying out to Nicaragua for 2 weeks on Monday. I went on my break to the woman's Macy's, since at this mall it's two separate locations and asked for the color that was the most similar.

I had seen online at my register before starting my shift and this was one of the colors I had thought was most similar, 414 Sari Doré. That day I was wearing a black dress with pearls, which is what the woman wear that work for Chanel, so it looked like I worked for them. A customer even asked me where the men's department was. They gave me some free goodies with my purchase, foundation and mascara.
I had seen so many fashion illustrations of this Chanel lipstick and I finally have my own.
My old Chanel lipstick with the new one, it's a discontinued shade and the bottle design was also no longer made that way.
I have yet to try any of my Chanel products, I will post when I do.

This was my last day in NYC on Sarurday and I wanted to wear my new pearls. Even though I would be wearing a scarf and it wouldn't be seen, I still wanted to wear it. It was kind of a bitter sweet day, happy to be leaving my low paying job, seeing my friends in Miami and my parents in Nicaragua, but sad because I was leaving the cold, leaving my new friend and not exploring the city anymore.


I wore a black thermal underneath, a fuzzy silk trimmed sweater like top from a friend, Duane Reade leggings, JustFab boots, real pearl necklace from nomorerack and Forever 21 red coat.



This top has a really long silk neck thing and I never knew what to do with it, which is why I would never wear it, but this time I got creative and made it into a scarf.



A closer shot of my pearls, pearl earrings from Burlington, stack ring I found online and my favorite Chanel lipstick, which has been discontinued and I'm running out of.


I was saying goodbye to the friend I made, we were at Bryant Park since she works there. So sad to be leaving her behind because she was amazing!


The last time I had this view.

For Halloween last year, since last minute plans were made, I had to come up with a costume last minute. I decided on dressing up as a upper east sider with clothes I already had.




Wearing a cobalt blue dress from Petticoat Alley, black blazer and sunglasses from Madrag, headpiece from Claire's, turquoise watch from Target, handbag borrowed. Blazer has full sleeves, I just rolled them up to be 3/4 sleeve.


Earrings and necklace given to me, wore this amazing foundation from Estee Lauder Double Wear and my favorite lipstick by Chanel in shade mango 31. You can actually ask for a free 10 day sample bottle of any Estee Lauder foundation at Macy's, just ask at the Estee Lauder counter.
