Swag Attack. Part One – Pic HEAVY

Hey y’all

So I was serious when I said swag attack at the end of the month would be some heavy shopping. So much so, that I will have to make it a two day thing b/c really y’all – it takes a while to post these things and to make sure I’m not sitting around by the comp all day long like a loser either. Girl got 2 jobs here remember? Some of the items purchased (i.e. clothes) will almost never make it to swag attack, whereas others are omitted due to either forgetfulness or lack of need (i.e. if I got a double of something etc.). As always – it’s a never say never type of situation so terms are always subject to change.

Also: to anyone who is interested in swatches/names leave a comment or e-mail me. Editing and loading these was hard enough without swatching everything and posting all their names – or maybe yo soy muy LAZY! 🙂

You know the deal! It’s Friday!

Beauty/Fashion Unrelated:

Check the sidebar in Shared Posts or click here for more posts I share throughout the week and periodically. Most of the time these posts don’t go up in the Blog Review as I don’t want to double post too much.

Shoot me an e-mail to MissYaya@ymail.com if you would like me to explore other/have less of some topics, or for general opinions of what’s in the blog review.

Smashbox wants you to buy cheap!

Gilt Groupe is having a Smashing Smashbox sale. Guess who has the invite for you? (It’s MissYaya – act like you know!!!) When you sign up, you also sign up for other sales that they host through each week. They had an appetizing Marc Jacobs RTW/Accessories sale just the other (two or three) week(s) ago.

What a DRAG!

Contest Entry time!
Check out the details at Makeup Babble here.

The inspiration (I didn’t really have a specific look, I googled “drag makeup” and then ran with it):

I’m not too sure who to credit for the images – so sorry if this is yours.
Contact me and I will promptly fix that!!!

And this is what I did y’all!

sizing was an issue with this photo shoot!

Contest Entry

Hey y’all – I’ve been commenting on most of your blogs alerting you of the upcoming contest deadline and inviting you to enter.

Don’t get mad that it’s long/formal. I had to copy and paste!!

This is what you all got:

hey there, I noticed you were listed as one of the followers on my blog, and I just wanted to remind you of the upcoming deadline in the contest. If you wanted to register – now is the time. Just go to the main page – http://myownjudge.blogspot.com/ and enter your e-mail into the Form at the top of the page. The random choice of the winners will be done via another website, so I wanted to make sure everyone showing me support got a chance to win!

Thanks! Yaya

If you didn’t receive it, it just means I couldn’t find a way to reach you and I didn’t have much time to be a snoop and stalk you out. Please take this post as a personal invite to enter the contest. There is nothing that needs to be done other than enter your name.

People who are followers and have NOT entered their name will NOT be in the contest. This is b/c even if I enter everyone’s name into it (not everyone has their name on their blog – and may have entered with their name), I might have double entries for people who aren’t followers – giving people an unfair advantage. So that is the final decision. Enter or bust.

Excuse the inconvenience – I will make the next contest that much better through this experience. 🙂

Shop It To YOU

Hey y’all

I’m currently working on a large post about how to save money and where to sign up for the quickest alerts on the fastest and cheapest things.

I couldn’t pass up an opportunity, though, to put a spotlight on Shop It to Me!

This is a website that delivers what you (I mean it) want to your e-mail address. You choose your sizes, your price range, your stores, your designers, your discount amount, your desired e-mail frequency, etc. They even have an option to pause e-mails (very good for events when VISA threatens to disown you or you go on vacation and will not be checking e-mail under the sun). Then they work their magic and send items to you.

My case for example? I love a plethora of designers. I have it set for under $175, in all my sizes, with a minimum of 60% off discount. It’s even better b/c they add in their own additional offers with certain stores.

You can even remove retailers. Why? Well Steve Madden and I are big-time enemies and I have taken a vow of nonpurchase after too many unhappy situations with the company/customer service/product. What did I do? Yaya clicked Remove retailer and didn’t hear from those good for nothings ever again!

I have an illustration to prove myself right too. Check it out:

Had to make the image smaller, so my apologies if it blurs. To sign up – click this icon/link below or in the sidebar, or type this into your browser: (see how accommodating I can be?) http://www.shopittome.com/index/referral/C4lhScbvbUyXE_eq.
