I've decided that a blog isn't really a blog if you wait for something earth-shattering to happen (or have I said that before?)

DBS and I reconnoitered at the VerticalShoppingExperience at Columbus Circle (A "mall," according to Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, is "[2b:] a usually large suburban building or group of buildings containing various shops with associated passageways." Hence, anything within the 5 boroughs of NYC is, by definition, NOT A MALL.) and went for Dior makeovers at Sephora. Our new best friend Ali made us look even more fabulous than usual and we want to join her fan club. Or at least put ourselves on her mailing list. And each buy $49 pallettes of eyeshadows (rather, I bought 2 $49 eyeshadow pallettes, one each for me and the Birthday Girl).
