Another Monday, another Covet List!
(A little background: Since I’ve decided that coveting is infinitely more agreeable than reckless spending, I was thrilled to be approached by Nadia Carriere of Child Mode to participate in the Monday Covet List. Together with some of my favorite fashion and style bloggers, Nicole Feliciano of Mom Trends, Vera Sweeney of Lady and the Blog and Audrey McClelland of Mom Generations, we’ll share 3-4 covet-worthy products that we are currently lusting over.)
Of course, I’ve realized that coming up with a covet list is way too easy because I tend to covet things all the time. This week, I’ve got the following gorgeous pieces on my mind (and perhaps favourited on my browser)…
1. Yes, I know I’ve already raved about them here. But I’m one step closer to coverting from a “covet” to a “purchase”; tomorrow, I’ll be doing a little cross-border shopping and you can bet I’ll be stocking up on hello oral care products!
“hello is a brand of seriously friendly oral care products. The line currently includes a range of 99% natural toothpastes, mouthwashes, and breath sprays in delicious flavors and beautiful packages, as well as a toothbrush made with biodegradable corn resin and recycled plastic.”
Since I last posted about my latest addiction, I officially have orders from 6 friends and family to grab them a few products each – with Mojito Mint being the most popular request. So apparently, I’ll be that crazy lady at the Target checkout with 12 tubes of toothpaste and 8 mouthwashes. It’s all good – except if I get nabbed at the border, y’all are chipping in for duty fees (you know who you are!).
2. I think I may be obsessed with these ORINGOA ankle boots from ALDO. My black skinny jeans have been longing for the perfect cool and casual complement, and with a pointed toe, side and back zipper and a sturdy 4-inch square heel, these booties have covet written all over them. $130.00
3. Marc Jacobs Nail Enamel has landed at Sephora. Now can you honestly tell me that you wouldn’t covet a row of these gorgeous polishes on your vanity or makeup bureau? Sigh. For $22.00, you’ll experience a superior polish with an unprecedented finish and the shine of 30 coats of lacquer. The custom, curve-hugging brush optimizes application and the curvature of the bottle resembles a smile.
“Get smitten with this fresh take on nail enamel. Inspired by Marc’s highly lacquered coffee table, Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer is formulated with patented bonding agents that deliver a plasticized, wet look, while the color-rich creams and fine glitters ensure vivid, chip-resistant wear. Choose from a vast array of shades inspired by Marc’s favorite movies.” WANT!!!

I didn’t know that Mark Jacobs has cosmetics!! I love the packaging on the polish bottles and the packaging on the hello products!
Indeed! Marc Jacobs debuted at Sephora a few weeks back, and the packaging is to die for :)
I am really looking forward to trying the Hello products next time I go over the the USA
Please do! Though I just returned from my cross-border shopping trip and it was a bust; I couldn’t find their products anywhere!
Love those polish bottles!
Me too :) Super gorgeous!
I love Marc Jacobs and these polishes look awesome!

I have to say something here….HONESTLY, THE BEST TOOTHPASTE EVER GO BUY IT!!

Hahaha stop using MY toothpaste!
I’m coveting my deoderant right now after the trainer but me through the trenches lol.
LOL – well, we all covet something!

Thank you Sarah! I was recently in Niagara Falls and Buffalo, NY and it was a total bust! Couldn’t find it :(
Love the colour of those boots ! For me I would chose the Legare (need flats). Oh shoot, now you got me looking at the Aldo site and there are some sweet flat shoes on sale ! The NIBAL are only $9.98 ! The PITAKOVA and MITHELL are now on my covet list :o)
NICE! And yes, ALDO has some amazing deals at the moment!

I have been eyeing those Marc Jacob polishes too…. but for $22, no way! Great list by the way! Love those boots… the blue looks amazing!
I’m totally waiting for those boots to go on sale and snagging a pair :)
Love the purple nail enamel!!!
It’s gorgeous, isn’t it?
Those beautiful blue boots remind me of a pair I got in England years ago! They are gorgeous!
Sa-weet! I bet your boots are gorgeous!
AND no i need to go to the US if not just for the Hello Brand! Thanks for the awesome Shares.
You’re welcome Angie!
Those boots are gorgeous! What a fantastic shade of blue!
Indeed! Love the new colbalt trend for 2013!
Love those ankle bootie shoes, love too many shoes
Too many shoes, too little time!
Those Aldo boots are just amazing …I don’t own any bright coloured shoes but I’ve seen them on a lot of bloggers and love how they just MAKE an outfit!
Have fun US shopping – am sending good-border-vibes your way so you can come back without any duties ;-)
LOL thanks Ella! No duties for us, and lots of goodies for the kiddos :)
Those boots are gorgeous!
Aren’t they??
I love the idea of covet lists ;) Since becoming a mom, I covet more things for my girls than for myself! This has given me the inspiration I need to get back out there and treat myself too occasionally!!
Oh, I love that – and couldn’t agree more!
Is Target Canada going to carry the Hello line? Ours doesnt open for a couple more months.
Sigh, I think it’s US only for the time being :(
