Online Shopping: eFoxCity.com! :)

Happy Thursday!

This past holiday season, I've done more online shopping than I should be proud of, haha!

But come on, how can we say no to online shopping, right?! ;)

I just recently learned about another online store that sells fashionable items at affordable prices:

eFoxCity.com is an online fashion clothing wholesaler -- they are suppliers of many wholesalers and boutiques worldwide. They supply most wedding apparel, fashionable clothing, and Korean fashion internationally. They understand that the fashion market wants unique and special ladies' clothes, and that is why they are always adding beautiful new styles to their collection. They are proud to offer exceptional low wholesale prices for good quality products.

To give you an idea of what eFoxCity has to offer, here are some of the items that really caught my eye:

Women's Clothes -

Black Long Sleeve Round Neck Ladies Splicing Cotton and Chiffon Top ($14.35)

Women Asymmetric Chiffon Front Short Back Long New Style Green Skirt ($9.81)

Wholesale Women's Sweaters -

Women Bat Sleeve Fawn Casual Knit Beige Sweater ($17.57)

Pretty, right?!

BzzAgent: COVERGIRL BlastFlipstick Lipcolor

Happy Tuesday!!!

Some of you may remember that I am a BzzAgent -- I love being a BzzAgent because not only do I get to try out different products, I also get to share the fun with my family, my friends, and you guys! :)

The latest product from BzzAgent?

COVERGIRL BlastFlipstick!!! :D

Thank you, BzzAgent!

What was inside my BzzKit?

I got a booklet/BzzGuide, coupons to share with friends and family, and three BlastFlipsticks! :D

2 lipsticks in 1 BlastFlipstick! Flip your look from day to night, soft to bright, with BlastFlipstick's double-ended lipstick duos.
With a creamy shade on one side and a shimmer shade on the other, it's two wearable, blendable, lipcolors in one!

- Double-ended stick

- One shimmer, one cream shade

- Blend to create unique looks

The shades I received:

Top to Bottom: Vixen (820), Minx (855), and Stunner (840).

LIP COLOR WITHOUT LIMITS:

Each COVERGIRL BlastFlipstick yields an array of stunning colors within each blendable duo and has unlimited potential to create customizable looks for every season. Blend and design your unique lip look in seconds.

- Glide on the creamy end of the stick, layering as desired.

- Use the shimmery end of the stick to finish the look, sweeping on layers to blend or highlight to perfection.

- Mix and match shades for your one-of-a-kind look.

1. Vixen -

Burgundy and pearl pink shades...

Shimmer Shade/ Cream Shade/ Blended

It's such a pretty pink color! Very flattering!

2. Minx -

Deep brown and gold shades...

Shimmer Shade/ Cream Shade/ Blended

I like the gold color, it's perfect for pairing with gold lip gloss.

When blended, this color may be a bit too dark, so I use my Anastasia of Beverly Hills lip gloss to make it lighter.

3. Stunner -

Bright pink and gold shades...

Shimmer Shade/ Cream Shade/ Blended

This color is stunning!

I love the creamy shade by itself and I also love the combined shade.

I really, really love COVERGIRL's BlastFlipstick!

The colors are beautiful -- both by themselves and combined.

The slanted shape of the lipstick makes it so easy to apply -- it glides on smoothly!

It is moisturizing (but still use a lip balm, definitely!) and long-lasting.

Other shades available:

Whisper - Taupe and pearl pink shades

Pucker - Light berry and lilac shades

Glimmer - Dark berry and soft pink shades

Flashy - Dark berry and lilac shades

Perky - Bright pink and light pink shades

Tease - Red and gold shades

Cheeky - Bright pink and peach shades

Snap - Taupe and sand shades

Smooch - Copper and sand shades

Intense - Deep berry and taupe shades

Aren't the names so fun?! ;)

Price: $8.49

(May vary according to where you buy it.)

I think this is a really good buy!

Think of it as getting 3 lipsticks for the price of one -- amazing, right?! :)

What do you guys think?

Have you tried COVERGIRL's BlastFlipstick before?

I hope you are all having a happy week!

Winter Must-Have: FALKE Tights from Tightsplease! :)

Happy Thursday!!!

It's been really hard getting over the holidays and the feeling of not having do anything in particular, haha!

But it's a new year and we gotta get to work, right?! And part of getting back to work for me is getting back to writing blog posts, so here we are. ;)

One winter must-have for me right now is my pair of FALKE tights from an amazing online store called Tightsplease... but, before we get on with my review, here is a little something about www.tightsplease.co.uk:

Tightsplease.co.uk was born in 2000 out of the frustration at the inconvenience of going to the shops to buy tights, stockings, hold ups, and socks. What is the point in going to buy a pair of tights for a few pounds and paying at least as much again in petrol and parking? Only to then find the shop didn't stock the type of product you wanted! Since then Tightsplease has grown to be one of the largest online hosiery retailers in the world. At any one time we stock over 15,000 pairs of tights, stockings, hold ups, socks, lingerie, and shapewear from the best brands in the world. This means you should be able to find exactly what you are looking for. Over a million people visit Tightsplease each year and we have supplied tights to international celebrities, film makers, fashion designers, and consumers all over the world.

Bernadette from Tightsplease contacted me a couple of months ago about doing a review for them, and of course, I said yes! ;)

They had tons of choices -- from footless tights to fishnet tights -- and you can bet it was hard to pick just one... but in the end I chose:

FALKE Soft Merino Tights

The Soft Merino Tights are pure luxury from the FALKE brand. The ideal option for keeping legs warm and snug in the winter months. Made from warmest merino wool and lined with cotton on the inside make these tights ultimately one of the most comfortable pairs on the market. Soft Merino Tights also have the double bonus of added stretch and an elasticated waistband.

55% Wool 28% Cotton 15% Polyamide 2% Elastane 
Reinforced Toe Sheer to Waist Brief Features a Gusset

I got mine in size Medium (40-42).

Sizes available:

Small (36-38)

Small/Medium (38-40)

Medium (40-42)

Medium/Large (42-44)

Large (44-46)

Extra Large (48-50)

I like how they have a wide range of sizes to choose from -- there's nothing worse than being in between sizes and not knowing which one to get. ;)

- Ideal yarn combination: soft cotton inside, warming merino wool outside

- Fine mesh structure

- Soft handle through special finishing

- Perfect fit

- Reinforced heel and toe

- Pressure-free, hand-linked toe

- Comfortable wear feel through comfort top

The fit is really perfect. 

The tights are soft and comfortable. It stays in place -- it doesn't crinkle like regular tights.

The elasticated waistband is also amazing -- it doesn't dig into my skin and doesn't roll over. :)

Another thing that I absolutely love about these tights is the reinforced heel and toe!

I love how it's shaped to fit your feet perfectly -- other tights don't have this and I always end up with curled toes because of it, haha! ;)

The material also helps keep my feet in place, no more slippery tights!

A peek at my outfit featuring my new FALKE Soft Merino Tights...

Price: $47.40, on sale for $33.17

A little pricey for a pair of tights, but so worth it!

I don't know why it took me so long to discover merino wool -- it is amazing!

And when they said it's warming, they weren't lying! My tights totally kept me warm throughout the day. :)

So, there we have it, these tights are officially part of my winter must-haves... I definitely have to get more!

You can keep up to date with Tightsplease through their website, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.

Have you guys bought anything from Tightsplease before?

Do you have a favorite pair of tights?

I hope you are all enjoying the first week of 2013!

2013: What are you looking forward to?

Happy Tuesday... and more importantly, Happy 2013!!!

Can you guys believe it's 2013???!!! ;)

I hope you all had a wonderful time ringing in the new year!

The holidays are over and it's almost time to get back to everyday life... seriously, the thought makes me a tad sad, haha!
But on the bright side, we have a brand new year to look forward to. Just thinking about all the possibilities 2013 holds is enough to ease the pain of having to resume our daily routine! ;)

I mentioned last year that Yahoo! always posts a yearly horoscope... and yes, I still love reading my horoscope. ;)

I really love the first line from my horoscope this year:

Get ready for a year of fabulous expansion, sweetness and love galore, Cancer.

Sounds great, right?!

Check out what 2013 has in store for you here.

Some big things for me this year are:

What Mimi Writes is turning 3 years old on March 10th!

And I am turning 23 years old on July 4th!

Aaaaaahhhh, time is flying by, it's so insane!
And that's why we should definitely make the most out of everyday. :)

I know there's so much more to look forward to this year, and I cannot wait to share all those things with you guys as we embark on another year together.

Here's to a year filled with new experiences and new adventures!
Yay for a wonderful 2013 for all of us! :D

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! :D

How did you ring in the new year?
What are you looking forward to the most?
