Things My Sister Taught Me (1)

So today I was thinking.. I have the most amazing sister in the world. And no she didnt buy me anything or give me some fabulous makeover(although that would have been greatly appreciated as well!), in fact we barely spoke to each other today. No what I'm talking about is all the things she has taught me that others will never know. But today im spilling. Im going to share the wealth of all the most important things that my sister has taught me. Starting with this and working my way down the list of everything a girl should know from her big sister. :)
So to start things off my sister taught me to follow my heart. Cheesy right? But it makes a lot of sense. She says when you follow your heart everything else will fall naturally the way it is suppose to.
Now this doesnt mean you will live the perfect storytale knight-in-shining-armour life when you follow your heart, but at least when things go wrong you have your happiness to look upon as the silver lining.
My sister Jessica is the best example of this, living life through its troubles and tribulations she knows her happiness is a factor in every decision she makes. And when she doesnt follow her heart she always finds a way to get back on track.
You see i dont believe honesty is the best policy, happiness is the best policy.
So follow your heart and happiness will follow.
Thats what my sister taught me.

Discounted Makeup- Heck Yes!

So a couple days ago Jess and I were able to spend a whole together, and since Jess and I are so busy that never happens anymore. So we went car shopping for me (which was a dismal failure) and then decided to take a little drive down to an outlet shopping center and cheer ourselves up with a little discounted makeup shopping! We found discounted Clinique and MAC and even some Bobbi Brown... but what we were really interested in was some discounted NYX! Come on now NYX is already cheap and soo hard to find in stores but we did! ANd let me tell you being able to buy NYX and not pay for shipping or have to wait 2 weeks for it was a very nice experience. SO we got all the staples from the NYX line complete with eye pencils, liquid eye liners, eyeshadows and of course jumbo eye pencils! :)

After that we went clothes shopping at Ralph Lauren ($10 tees!) BCBG, and Off 5th (Discounted Saks 5th Avenue). Although we didn't buy anything it was nice to drool and dream over all the amazing designer clothes and of course... shoes.

We finished off the day with a nice drive home fist pumping to our favorite music.. overall a very productive day. Nothing better than spending a day with your sister doing something you both love... discount shopping :)


XoXoX,
Tess and Jess
