Humpty hump day and lashes!



Sorry for the up close photo! Yikes! I wanted to share my mascara routine and what I use! 

I always use at least two mascaras at once and sometimes three. My go to always use mascara regardless of the others is Clinique's lash doubling mascara. It separates and lengthens them. It's very non clumpy. 

The others above: Givenchy and Mally. They both add the volume! I use about two-three coats on each eye. 

Have a great day!!

Feeling sunny Tuesday!


   

   

Happy Tuesday. Nothing really significant about a Tuesday! I was feeling yellow today and it's a very sunny day! I'll take the sun any day! Maybe some warmer temps to go with it though! 

I love red and yellow together! Those colors always seem to lighten my mood. 

Have a good day! I'll be Jamming out to some tunes while I work today! Here are a few of my favorite songs lately new and older:

Beyoncé- Drunk in Love

Keri Hilson- Pretty Girl Rock

Michael Jackson- Dirty Diana 

Sevyn Streeter- It won't stop

Teeth chattering cold!


    





Another cold one!! I really tried to wear a skirt today... A warm wool one at that. However , it must have shrunk!! Ha well it's been hanging in my closet forever! I did manage to squeeze out of it without bursting any seams! Maybe next year it will fit! 

Stay warm people!

Pinterest inspiration outfit ideas!


Here are a few of my favorites this week from my Pinterest board of inspirational outfits!
 
I often get into a rut with my clothes, but when looking through my Pinterest boards it gives me new ideas and ways to mix and match the clothes I have without buying new things! 

 I'm in love with all of these! The colors and how each one is put together. Most of us own many of above pieces in our closets. Hopefully this gives some inspiration in pairing different items in your closet! Happy Friday!

Pears, sunshine, & I'm back!

   
   
    





I'm back! I do apologize for the long period of time I've been gone. Work has been absolutely crazy! Crazy!

Do you ever have one of those weeks that seem to go in torturous slow motion? Yes, that's what my week was like. Honestly it has continued to go that way till now with some relief. 

Anyway. I won't go on about work. Monday was beautiful! I decided to take the car for a bath... Well of course I was one in 50 people who thought the same. I went to the quick wash, where they do all the work basically. This car wash had those rail things that your car goes on... I followed the directions or so I thought. I went off the rail not once, but twice. Sirens went off both times to alert the staff they needed to investigate what was going on. The first time it happened the young man said, "what happened?" I sweetly said, "I don't know, but I'm sorry." That face that says, I'm just girl and didn't mean to face. You all know that face. The second time I hung my head and barely looked at anyone. This wouldn't have been so bad except the 50 other people I was holding up. Opps Sorry.  I so wanted to drive away, but I already paid for the car detailing as well. Sometimes its just hard being me. Ha. The rest of the week has been busy. I promise I will better from now on! At least know if I'm gone for a few days, it's probably because work has swallowed me whole. :)

What I want Wednesday

Tory Burch sandals in Python. Yes, please!! I have flats like this!! These babies would go with everything!! I need!
Dior blush. The shade customizes to your skin tone. Awesome right? You no longer have to find the perfect shade. This shade works for everyone! 

I got a sample of this Tory Burch perfume when I ordered from her website. Wow. Smells amazing and has great staying power!

Manic Monday linkup!



Monday... Yes, I have a serious case of the Mondays! I really really was going to try and wear heels today, but comfort was calling my name. I will do better the rest of the week! :-) 

I've been oncall for my job these last several days. Say a little prayer I make it till Thursday when I get off call. My oncall week always makes cranky, but I'm making a serious effort to keep a happy face.

The sun is shinning and the weather is beautiful! I decided I needed color today. I chose bright blue pants to brighten my mood! Why not pack on the sparkles and wear two necklaces at once? :)

Have a great Monday! 

Wearing: jcrew factory sweater, jcrew crew chambray shirt, jcrew factory colored pants, dolce vita boots, jcrew necklace, illy couture necklace, MK runway watch.

I'm melting.... Not me.. The snow. :)





Finally Friday.... Sing it with me. 
Ok. It's thawing out today and the forecast calls for rain today!! Can't a girl get some sun!?! I'm feeling blah and dull! Well perhaps some sparkles will brighten my day up! 

I'm in love with these jcrew factory pants. I tell everyone I know to buy them!! They are like a super thick, forgiving legging! They hide any imperfections! They don't pill after washes and they can be dressed up or down! I have two pairs in different sizes. They bigger pair, I'm wearing today. :) A little holiday eating and winter hibernation pounds of course! You won't regret buying these! I live in them!! I've attached the link below for these wonder pants. They're on sale too!

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

Freezing again! 1degree one way to work! I opted to wear the snow/rain MK boots again! Why not all black?

Morning juice

4 large carrots 
1 lemon (peeled)
1 orange (peeled)
1 handful of grapes

I add my ingredients into my juicer and serve in a glass with usually one ice cube to chill it a bit. 

The concoction tastes like citruis and sweetness! Tasty! 

Note*  You can aways put ingredients into a blender if you don't have a juicer.
