I'm going to the USA!

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm off to the United States of America in 80 odd days! I've never been to that side of the world so am quite excited! I'll be travelling with my boyfriend and we are going to Orlando, Washington, New York, Las Vegas and Los Angeles! It will be just over a month all-up and I couldn't be more excited!

Now while I will be going to theme parks, checking out the sites and eating a lot of different food I'll also plan on doing a heap of shopping! This is one of the reasons why I am doing my Project Pan at the moment-I need every dollar going towards a big haul as we'll be travelling with QANTAS and can bring back two suitcases each!

Some of the places on my list to go to are Forever 21, Tiffany & Co, Marc by Mark Jacobs, H&M, Kate Spade and of course Sephora! I also want to go to some drugstores as they sell lots of cheap nail polishes and makeup!

I'll soon be doing some wishlist posts but I would love to hear of some places that I must go to so I can check them out online and start adding to my list!

I would also love to hear of any suggestions you have for any of the places I am going to. All of our accomodation and flights are already booked so now I'm adding to my ever-growing list of cafes and restaurants that I must go to.

  1. Ulta should be on your list as well! Make sure to check out the value packs at Sephora, you can save heaps :) You HAVE to get the Makeup Forever Aqua Brow and seriously raid the ELF stand at a Target :)

    1. Thank you for your tips Evangeline!! I didn't even think to go to a Target-I will have to now! I have heard of Ulta so I'm keen on finding a bit more about the store :)

  2. One thing that really irked me when I was in LA late 2011 was that the prices you see on the shelf is NOT the price you pay. You need to remember to add taxes on top of that! Bastards!

    If youre going to go crazy at Sephora (like I did), get the Sephora VIB card! It's free and if you spend enough, you get some freebies! I got VIB status after I went crazy and purchased a Clarisonic Mia lol

    1. Oh Abigail that is so true! I keep forgetting about the tax which is so annoying! Surely they could just put the total price next to the items! I'm definitely planning on getting the VIB card as I have a lot of products I'm after! Does the clarisonic Mia work here with an adapter? As that would be so much cheaper if it does!
