Ahh, I'm one day late on my Potpourri Wednesday post!  It's graduation time on GW's campus, and my Department's been pretty busy.

My super belated Potpourri Wednesday post.  How cute are these cosmetic bags?  These medium cheetah printed bags are from Sephora, and they're only $10!

They also have a box of resealable travel bags, for $9!  These are great for carrying your 3oz bottles of makeup and skincare on the plane.  And your carry-on will look that much cuter!




Treat yourself to one this weekend.  Have a good weekend!
