Hello, fabulouses, and welcome back to Beauty Tues.

This week, we are going to chat about my visit to Saks Fifth Avenue of Birmingham–oh, what a fashionista’s wonderland Saks is!

After a live blogging event in Birmingham with B-Metro Magazine, I had some extra time to stop by S5A to see my lovely beauty family! Imagine the VIP and the Saks beauty gals as sisters all living under one roof –talk about fabulousness 24/7! *wink*

As Kimberly Crawford gave me a tour around the beauty department, we chatted about some of the new makeup looks and trends, skin care, and perfume….Speaking of perfume…as soon as I caught a whiff of Viktor&Rolf’s BONBON, I fell in love! It was love at first sniff *wink*

This Saks Fifth Avenue exclusive scent has a delectable aroma composed of hints of caramel, orange slices (Oh, now I am craving some old-fashioned orange slices!), and pretty florals. Not only does it smell amazingly delicious, but BONBON also comes in the most adorable bow bottle I have ever seen! Ah! Two magnificent things in one–I am adding this perfume to my wishlist…right now. Please excuse me as I write a letter to my lovely Birthday Fairy…

Dear Birthday Fairy,

I know my birthday is quite a few months away…but do you think it would be possible for you to come just a tad bit early? Please bring BONBON perfume. If they just so happen to be sold out of BONBON–that’s okay. You can get me a Saks Fifth Avenue gift card. Thanks so much–you’re the best *wink*

Thanks & Hugs,

Abby Hathorn
