Lover the Label serpent lace dress, Kate Spade earrings Looking back, one of the scariest and most daunting thing about packing up and moving to a new country wasn’t the losing the security of a stable job, or a fear of the unfamiliar; it was the unnerving reality of what I’d be leaving behind. It was knowing that in the near future, I would wake up in a city where I could count the number of friends I had on one hand, while taking a leap of faith in the looming adventure with my best friend and forever love. But…
I’ve been planning a 15-pan eyeshadow palette from MAC for a while now, the only thing stopping me from biting the bullet has been trying to narrow it down from 25 to 15.
