The Best

Last monday was especially 'january-ish' for me.  One of those cold, ugly days that seem never ending.  I knew what I needed to make myself feel better.  I allow myself special january treats like getting a tan (which is generally something I never, ever do) good takeout lunches, and fancy lipsticks. (You gotta do what you gotta do to get through the winter, right?)  So last monday I decided it was the day for a fancy lipstick and I bought this Bobbi Brown one.  And I must say, it is probably the best red lipstick I've ever had.  Not too blue, not too orange, simply red.  I've been wearing it all week, and getting lots of "oh, red lipstick really suits you!"  It does when it is the perfect red!  Two other candidates for my January best... Tocca 'Stella' solid purfume.  A christmas gift from the mister, and it is the perfect everyday scent.  Floral and slightly sweet, it smells just like springtime to me.  And the best winter hand cream out there, in my opinion.  Very moisturizing, but not too greasy, in a cute daisy tin.  It may seem silly, but sometimes, especially in these winter times, small little treats like these really do make a difference.  Got any winter must haves I should know about?  Do tell!
