This is my collection of tattoos & piercings. This video has been highly requested & I hope it was worth the wait. Thanks for watching!! xo

 

Earthy Bohemian Blues

Ever had one of those days where it’s too cool for a sundress but too warm for pants? Yeah–that was my issue today and to top it off, I was getting some ink touched up so I needed my collar bone exposed. I also needed my hair back–to balance out the whole look, I added a scarf so I didn’t look too exposed.

I am LOVING this peacock scarf that I got from eBay. It has beautiful earth tones that go well with most items in my Summer wardrobe. As you can see, the dress is hella mini!

I did this beautiful messy “bohemian” inspired bun with a few braids. It was super easy to do, very voluminous & the perfect hairstyle to rock in humid weather.

The final look–complete with my new nude handbag! (I was in a rush today so as you can tell, these photos are a bit on the candid side!)

Overall, a fun & adventurous day!

Twenty-Two Days of Taupe: Day 15

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a taupe makeup post this look was inspired by my latest issue of Glamour Magazine–I was flipping through and saw this beautiful messy yet sexy taupey makeup. I think it looks fabulous on the model but I don’t think the messy part would have looked too good while running errands! I cleaned it up, smoked it out and gave it my Nancy Valentino flare *lol*

I’m also including some photos with my new faux Alexander McQueen scarf. The man was a fucking genius (*RIP*) however, this chick can’t not afford his beautiful pieces so I’ve gone with faux & slightly tacky–I love it though.

OOTD: A Pop of Bright Pink & Gold

This is a new top I featured in my Spring Clothing haul (which I’m working on getting up tonight)–I’m in love with it! It’s perfect for the Spring & Summer months. Since this shirt was a loud one, I kept the hair simple, did a faux amber gem earring & a pop of pink on the lip. I’m loving MAC’s Quick Sizzle as you can see :)

A Sunday in the Country & OOTD

Hi All! I hope you remembered to turn your clocks forward…I could have used that extra hour today. I packed a lot on my plate and I’m struggling to find the time to do everything that’s on my itinerary.

Currently as I write this, we are doing our first BBQ of the season…just weeks away from the Spring season, I’m BBQ’ing some fabulous Medittarian burgers–figure friendly, of course :)
The weather reached the low 60′s and was simply fabulous…took a drive to the mall.
Here is a pictures of that cute little Christmas ornament that I hauled from Forever 21 a few weeks ago…makes a cute charm for my Bimmer…
While I was driving, my husband snapped these shots…I’m so used to seeing all the horse & buggy’s on the road now, though I’ll never get used to the smell here in the country!  I adore driving by the horses, cows, sheep & goats. Here is a little bit of the country…
Is this an OOTD post, a Twenty-Two Days of Taupe post? Who knows? As I said, I packed a lot on my plate today AND also tried to squeeze a video in…still have to go through the footage to see if it’s usable–why oh why did I pack too much into today?
I suppose I’ll leave the makeup for another post and give you a breakdown of today’s outfit of the day…
The Bimmer and I are coordinating today *lol*
Blazer: Charlotte Russe
Cami: Aero
Jeans: Forever 21
Pumps: BRASH for Payless (LOVE<333)

Face of the Day: Holiday Sparkle

It’s been awhile since I’ve gotten out of the house. I’ve spent the last week bare faced and in sweats! *lol* With Christmas literally ONE WEEK away, I felt like my next few FOTD posts should be Holiday themed.

Twenty-Two Days of Taupe: Day #1

I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve done a beauty video or a beauty post!  I’ve REALLY been into taupe colors lately. I thought it would be fun to come up with a little challenge for myself–”Twenty-Two Days of Taupe”! There’s no real significance behind the number twenty-two; I thought it just sounded cute *lol* Since there are SO many variations of taupe out on the beauty market, I thought it’d be fun to come out with as many taupe makeup looks as possible and my goal is to get to 22!


Day #1 starts off with the most obvious, Satin Taupe. It was literally the second eye shadow that I bought from MAC and I loved it because it went with everything I wore. This look is VERY versatile–you can wear Satin Taupe alone for a day look & smokey it out with a darker dramatic color for the evening.

I’m very big on coordinating eye makeup & outfits. Taupe is very versatile because it there are so many colors of it–dark, light, metallic, sheer, cool tones, warm tones and the list goes on…

-NYX Pots & Pans Jumbo Eye Pencil
