DO YOU CABOODLES?

hello everyone I hope you had a wonderful holiday.  I am completely exhausted as I am sure a lot of you are after having done so much to prepare for gift giving, eating, drinking, praying, shopping, visiting/traveling, cleaning up and getting ready to do it all over again with New Years Eve and day quickly approaching. 

This outfit along with my CABOODLE that Shayla(Lisa) of Fortyish and Fluffy gifted me is mostly thrifted except for my shoes and necklace.  Do you CABOODLE?  I DO!  If you don't remember caboodle make up case/organizers from the 80's just check ebay for a vintage one.

I ate too much Christmas ham.....


I can take my nifty caboodle on my next vacation to store my jewelry or cosmetics...



I got a new camera with  remote for Christmas.   We returned the original one that my husband got for me and ordered another one last night...I think it will cut down on my shoot time...hopefully anyway.   Would love to hear what you have planned for New Years Eve.  Dawn xo

OMG, how FUN is this outfit?! LOVE the color pops and that caboodle is awesome. I never had an official one, but a cheaper knock-off for all my cheap makeup and SCRUNCHIES (oh heavens) :) I hope your Christmas was awesome and that you have a rockin' New Years!!! XO

Love the outfit! So fun and colorful! Totally remember those Caboodle days...although I think I caught the tail end of the era, since I was a little too young in their heyday. I had a purple and pink hand me down from my cousin....

Color blocking at its best:)
Hope you had a fab Xmas!
