December 2014 ipsy Glam Rooms have been posted!  Once I logged into ipsy today, it took me to a screen that asked if I wanted to see my December Glam Room. You have to share on Facebook, but it’s been like that the last few months, so I wasn’t surprised.  If you want to see all the items ipsy sent out this month, you’ll see a link at the bottom of your Glam Room which will expand page to show them all to you.

TTGood copy

~Good morning!  This week is flying.  Is it going to be like this from now until Christmas?  I hope not!  I don’t even have my tree up yet!  And my shopping is no where close to being done.  Oh, speaking of shopping, did you hear about this free gift thing Banana Republic is doing?  Everyday from the 1st – 7th of December you can stop into Banana and pick up a free gift (no purchase necessary) while supplies last. If you happen to be near one you might as well swing in!  (Thanks for the heads up on this one Judy)!
