Dear creamy, pale pink and coral lipsticks, I want you. I really, really want you. And I hope you work for my warm, Indian skin! I don't want your mauvy/brown cousins right now. I have them. I want you and I'll love you and wear you everyday and ruin you for everybody else!
Dear Ikya, I wish I knew what's up with you suddenly becoming a lipstick junkie and buying them all.. I mean it's okay. I'll let you do that. But love, buying backups of lipsticks as soon as you see them without even trying them first is taking it too far now! Wait to finish at least half-3/4th of your lipstick before buying another one. Ok? They will still be available. Relax.
Dear Blackberry, I had an inkling you sucked even before I bought you. Today, I know for a fact that your were no good. But you know what? I find it really easy and peaceful to live without you. Yes, in a months time, I'll have to buy another phone. But right now, I'm really at peace *almost phone-less!
Dear Coral colour, you're my one true love. I'm sorry I strayed and went chasing pinks last month. But I'm back to you. I've been wearing you on my nails and my toenails and my lips and cheeks and I'm super happy about how you seem to love me back!
Dear brain, remember to venture out a little now, okay? Try stuff! Let's not just like some range of makeup products and buy every colour and their back ups. Remember to buy lip-liners now. No, they're not criminal waste of money. After today's tiny shopping, remember you're not allowed to buy any makeup this month. Use this up! And do this one thing you keep talking about- save up, you fool!
*I don't live without a phone! I carry one of my old ones when I'm out. But currently on a vacation from my regular day job, It's almost always off/ not answered/stays in my bag! Yes, I'm probably the only one in this generation in this era!
Adorable post :P
ReplyDeleteI need to tell my brain to stop shopping too. It never listens.
Thank you, thank you! I really hope I remember this the next time I look at slassy! :P

Deletewaao! (I just said it like that!)Hi5! we're the only 2 ones in this generation, in this era then! I don't even miss it! I thought I was weird! :P
I have been without a phone for ages too and am totally fine with that. So glad that I'm not the only one - people look at me like I'm a Martian when I tell them.
ReplyDeletehaha hi5! I'm not exactly phoneless but I'm okay being phoneless. Communicating all the time is not my thing I guess! :P
Deletehaha nice post :D
ReplyDeletebtw if u remember i was quite against the lakme tints..
but couldnt resist the lip tint n got .. umm ... 2 !! wont give any excuses for buying thm, just cdnt resist n really dont regret buying them :P
aww thanks! haha really? I actually thought I'd go out and buy those the next day itself if I kept talking about them but I really dint feel that yet! Glad you're liking them would've been a bummer if you didn't! :P
Deletehaha :D i feared that too but i love the shades i got.. berry pink n candy kiss! :)
Deletelol that was really funny and oh-so adorable ikya ! Well i am not a "on you face coral" loving girl but I think i have a fetish for pinky-corals and I can't stop wearing them..lips, nails, suits..et al.. I might copy this concept from you ! :P
ReplyDeleteAww thank you Sukanya! Please, go ahead and be my guest! :)
DeleteAdorable ikya...
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteListen you! I don't particularly like this phoneless ness of yours, keeps you away :P And I went to Kashmir for one week and I hyperventilated over my phone not working...I guess opposites attract ;)
ReplyDeletewhhhaa you went to my birth place state!! You like what you see?
DeleteI loved what I saw :)
Deleteyayy! :D
Deletehey!!
ReplyDeletei thought i was the only crazy chick who was okay with not having a phone
(i had lost mine couple of months back) and be it work or home..i just didn't have a phone...no backup phone nothing!! and strangely and shockingly enough i was so happy with that!
though i loved my previous phone and later bought a dabba "smart" phone, which is crap! (guess that happens when you are a nokia worshipper in this era and get paid peanuts)
hahaha so rightly put omg underpaid and nokia loving!
DeleteHow you been?
i'm semi melted... if the temperature rises beyond 46 i shall be fully melted!! :D
Delete(in fact i feel so cool about the temperature here that i'm pretending that i live in saudi arabia now ;)
how you been pretty lady??
haha awww all good now that I'm reading your comments! Always crack me up and put me in a good mood! Otherwise, looking at overpriced bags. :/ I really need to stop buying more makeup!
Deleteaww... i'm glad to know that!!
Deleteya, i know what you mean... i'm the same with shoes... one can never have enough shoes!
I CANT stay without my fone! I carry it with me from one room to the other...lol. The 9 days in HK without fone were ok coz we were havin so much fun but otherwise....
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, there's so much more to shopping than just makeup....like Sophie Kinsella says, my shopping is like crop rotation....clothes, shoes, handbags, makeup n perfumes back to clothes etc. Ive decided to go on a 3week shopping ban now.
Hhaha I know people look at me like I'm crazy for not worrying about answering my phone and checking my messages!
DeleteOh God you're right! that's what I don't get! Can't believe I'm focussing only on makeup lately! I'll try going on a makeup shopping ban now!
Go for an android girl!! I persuaded two my friends to shift from BB to android, and they agree that they really didn't know what they were missing earlier.
ReplyDeleteYan man, I'm on a holiday now but when work starts, I'll need one! Very strangely, I'm in no hurry! :/
DeleteHa, I could write the same letter to coral. I always forget how much I love it !
ReplyDeletehaha hi5!
DeleteI have never studied such a cute post :)
ReplyDeleteI had been your silent reader past months..

DeleteNothing makes me happier than silent readers deciding to speak up! Welcome here! :D

ReplyDeleteThank youu! I'm really glad it did! :)
