the time i had a few hours to waste at Nordstrom....

so last week me and some girlfrands went to a matt wertz concert.

the concert was on a wednesday night and based on my nifty little work schedule I got going on right now, I had the whole day to get ready and head down to Seattle.

i think i got a liiiitle too excited, and I left too early.

I did have to stop at Nordstrom though and get our niece, Charlotte, these boots for her FIRST birthday party that we went to yesterday.

I die.

anyways,

so these boots took a little less time than I anticipated.

as innnn. I had about 3 hours until I could meet my friends.

I had already gone to Target, World Market, Storables, had a latte at Panera, browsed Pottery Born, conveted everything in Nordstrom etc. etc.

I was seriously out of entertainment. (Not to mention the wedges I was wearing were KILLING my feet"

ah ha! I had been thinking about how I wanted some lipstick or some colored lip gloss to brighten up a face that no longer goes to a tanning salon. :(

I mosied right over to the Clinique counter and started looking at the lip gloss.

and then they spotted me.

They offered to try the colors on me. I suppose that was legit.

I think my first mistake was sitting down.

Perhaps my second mistake was telling her, when she asked how much time I had, that in fact I was "trying to pass some time before I met my friends."

we started with the liptstick, and then the questions about what kind of facewash I use..

I was exfoliated, mosturized, blushed, mascared, eye lined, serumed...

and then i told her I was going to a concert that night.

looking back, that could have been the biggest mistake of the night.

green eyeshadow. cat eye eyeliner. red lipstick. oh yeah baby.

it gets worse. i bought it all.

i just couldnt bear to say no to the sweet girl.

then i had a freak out thinking WHY IN THE EARTH DID I JUST BUY AN $80 SERUM?!?!

so I turned right back around and ran to customer service where I promptly said I was sorry, but I was suffering buyers remorse and needed to return this.

slight problem. it had been TOO quickly after I had purchased the makeup, so it wasnt showing up on their computer history. They said I had to wait at least 4 hours before I could return it.


hahahaha.

oh boy.

welll. i ended up going to a different Nordstrom the next day, and returning it all but the lip gloss :)

but man oh man, my face is still feeling the benefits from that lovely exfoliation. so I would say all in all, it was worth it ;)
