Perseverance pays people, it pays! A few weeks ago while in NYC, I paid a quick visit to Zara on my way to the train in order to make my dream spring purchase, the brown leather shorts from the Spring lookbook.(Unfortunately, Philadelphia Zara doesn't get the really supreme stuff, boo hiss.) Anyway, I rushed in and asked the first sales clerk I encountered where the shorts were. She nonchalantly informed me they had sold out. I couldn't even comprehend this possibility, I was stupefied. My mind couldn't take no for answer and so I hastily decided to make myself a bona-fide pain in the ass and accosted every sales associate in the store, (of course, out of eyesight of the one before lest they think I was crazy) and asked all the same exact question. Well guess what, CHA-CHING! On my last try, a Zara employee savior pulled out a secret pair in my size that were the last ones in the store. I could've planted a big wet one right on her lips but I restrained myself not wanting to be kicked out without my shorts. And the moral is... if at first you don't succeed, try, try again... and again...and again.
And this is my favorite vampy lipstick, Nars in Fast Ride. Not too cakey, smudgey and just dark enough.
