Upcoming MAC Collections

Lately, I think MAC has had an overkill with all of their collections coming out. I feel like with each collection that comes out they don't put much thought into each one to make it that special. For example, the Hello Kitty collection & style warriors were big collections last year. So far, I have no seen a huge collection that has been as good as those simply because they come out with mini collections every Thursday. I feel like if they were to have a HUGE collection come out maybe once a month, that would be much better and more worthy. I have skipped so many collection this past month because I just feel they are nothing special. I am a sucker for limited edition items/packaging so that's why I feel the need to buy stuff, but at the same time it limits me from expanding my permanent collection from MAC.

Phew, with that little rant out of the way here are the collections I am excited about.
*MAC is coming out with way more collections than these but here is what I want from each. MORE DETAILS & PHOTOS AT temptalia.com

I need a new camera

LONG TIME NO TALK! The main reason why I am so lazy updating the blog and doing swatches, etc. is that the digital camera I have now, I don't really like and it doesn't take that good quality pictures. So this friday, I believe I am going to go on a hunt for a good camera that takes decent videos as well here are some of the ones I have been looking at:



-This camera I have been eyeing for quite awhile because it takes really good pictures, yet has HD filming as well. I don't necessarily NEED the HD videos...but it's a nice little option!



-I also have been looking into this one as well because I believe this is one of the videos Lorraine uses on her day in the life vlogs and it is such nice quality! Another added bonus is the screen on the front so you can make sure you look good in the pictures [LOL]

Anyways, I am not that knowledgable in the technical field so if you have any suggestions for any digital cameras that would be wonderful! Thanks so much for reading.
