Hey, guys! Well, after a considerable hiatus from any serious, aesthetic-driven shopping, a "technical" issue has thrown me - once again - into the proverbial lion's den. I did my research, comparison shopped online and then hit up the store that had the better deal on the item(s) I now needed: Bed, Bath & Beyond. I had to travel a little ways to get to the desired location, but was rewarded immediately upon arrival with an almost empty store in which to roam. I guess I shouldn't say "roam" since I was more than determined to stick to my assignment. But I did allow myself a few moments to peruse some of the store's more colorful wares...
This seashell lamp certainly caught my eye. If I were one who loved everything beach (which I'm not) and had a beach-themed room in my home (which I don't), I would definitely consider this unique fixture.
And then I found myself lingering in the decorative pillow aisle, which is not exactly a surprise. I don't know exactly what it is - perhaps because the mere mention of the word elicits feelings of comfort and rest - but I absolutely LOVE pillows! Throw pillows, floor pillows, square or oblong, I sincerely believe "the more the merrier"! And if it has some sort of interesting, whimsical design... boy, I'm all in!
Case and point: this bright starfish throw. Again, there are no beach motifs anywhere in my current abode, but this would be a serious contender to add to the stock if I were so inclined.
True to its name, there were many bedding options available to view...
as well as some "beyonds" like this running advert of a woman sitting (fully dressed) on a toilet to describe the all joyful benefits of using a product called Poo-Pouri. Umm...yeah. *clears throat* Moving right along...
After the brief detour, I finally got to the task at hand. My whole purpose in making this sojourn to BB&B was to get a new flat iron. Yes, guys. I think my beloved HAI flat iron that I've had for many moons might be fading (perish the thought!). And so, after overdosing on page after online page of positive reviews, I decided to give the much lauded BaByliss iron a try. I spied this one, their 1" Ultra Thin version...
as well as this bundle pack that included two irons for the price of one. Sadly enough, the bundle pack that I wanted (which included a travel-sized blow dryer, comb, a mini and full-sized iron) was erroneously listed online as being in stock when it clearly wasn't and hadn't been for a long time according to the manager. So I was left with having to choose between the two available options.
And so I did. And once I crack it open and use it on my locks this weekend, I'll be back to not only reveal the package I chose, but also give an earful of what I think. Admittedly, I am not one to enthusiastically embrace change with regard to a lot of things. But I'm gonna go with the flow and see where it takes me. So we shall see.
Yep. We shall definitely see...
