There is now a new sidebar feature “Latest Stash!” on the left sidebar, below “Looking for a Post?” and above “Recent Highlights!”. On the list are items (most of which are seasonal makeup items) that I have recently purchased and have scheduled to review.
To all my e-mail/feed subscribers: This list replaces the “Stash Update” blog posts, so do stop by my blog from time to time to see what I have added to my beauty stash!

When it comes to jewelry, Bulgari is one of my favorite brands, if not the favorite. I particularly love the beautiful multi-colored pieces from the Sapphire Flower, Allegra and Astrale collections. I also love Bulgari for its well-crafted fragrances, of which I have a few, and Eau Parfumée au Thé Vert is one of my favorite scents.
For this spring, combining jewelry and fragrances, Bulgari gives us the Jewel Charms Collection. The colors and the shape of the flacons certainly remind me of some of the stunning pieces of Bulgari’s luxurious jewelry:

Kanebo Lavshuca‘s Star Decoration Eyes series is from the line’s winter 2010 makeup collection. As soon as I came across images of the palettes, I thought I would definitely get one of them. The choice was between BR-1 and PU-1, and, because I don’t really like purple paired with grey (greys are usually too cool for me), I went for BR-1.
The case has the same length and width as those of Eye Color Select palettes, but it is a little thicker, which I like.
