I recently became a freelance makeup artist for Chanel, which if that isn't dangerous in itself, leaves me with more money burning a hole in my pocket. The latest Chanel collection is to die for, (rich and vibrant hues and shadow sticks that take you from sweet girly girl for day to sexy vixen by night).  I forced myself to leave the store without buying a thing once my appointments ended - but that won't last long, trust me I am making my list.  And if that wasn't bad enough I found the cutest kitchen and dining items at Anthro over the weekend.  I was pretty tempted to just move right into the store.  Cheeky measuring cups and spoons, dainty plates and a rolling pin that would make me want to bake every day.

And so... My list got even longer.  What I did buy (after trying and falling in love with) was the mascara of all mascaras. And the name says it all...Better Than Sex.  Yep. That's what it's called. And rightly so.  My lashes never looked so happy.

The first week of April has proven itself to be quite lovely.  The weather has turned, the sun is out and Spring finally feels like it's in the air.  What better way to celebrate than dinner in NYC with some friends?  We met in the Village and went Brazilian which was out of the box for us.  We were not disappointed though and to round off the night - a trip to an oldie but goodie for some cupcakes.

I can't think of a better way to welcome in April!
