Outfit Of The Day

I know I'm not your typical skinny person, whom I normally see doing these, but i don't know wouldn't you want to see something on someone a little bit lets use the kinder term "curvier"? Maybe I'm just trying to butt into the trend, but whatevs!

I am wearing:
Puma Jacket/Blazer
Promod Tank Top
A key necklace
Guess Skinnies

I ended up throwing on a magenta scarf with gold in it, and little booties (such a fun word to say) since it was FREEZING outside (as in it didn't get about 70)

The Story of a Piece:
This tank top I've had for about 2 years, I bought it at a french boutique. I saw this shirt in a store window and thought I've got to have it (at the beginning of my trip). I was there for a week and had approximately 300 Euros Spending money. I had no idea what else I'd see so when I saw it was 30 euros I though eh its passable. As soon as we got into Paris (on the fourth day) me and my friends went shopping all over, we landed in promod, and i MADE them go in with me. There was no choice. It wasn't there cup of tea as they liked more pop mainstream things, and something about this store I just really liked, if my memory serves me correct, it was kind of a sophisticated yet fun store, like a working city girl on her days off who wants a bit of color but doesn't want to look like she's at the beach 24/7 (like my town does). So it was definitely a nice change in pace from the average hollister, abercrombie type thing. I ended up buying this and a necklace and I don't regret it one bit. I would love to go back again, and me and a good friend are planning to go next year. I don't know how, I don't know exactly when, but it will happen.

FOTD: 10/28/2009

I love Feline Eye Power Kohl thing whatever (how descriptive haha). I love getting up in the mornings and putting it in my waterline and a little bit below and smudging the day lights out of it, and I've been doing the same with my eye liner.
I take feline and line my upper lid, and both my water lines. On the Bottom I take a pointed brush with a soft brown color, and blend blend blend! Then with the same pointy brush and a dark chocolatey brown I blend blend blend some more. I thought I would never like the look of this, but it took me to be bored and play with make up that I realised it looks really nice. It's not as harsh as regular eye liner and really gives you that "I've been doing my eyeshadow for 30 minutes" smokey looks when really I only spend 5 minutes doing it, It's the easiest!

You might be able to see how it looks in the pictures below... taken at 5am, feel sympathy for how early I have to wake up!

Specifically this one you can really see the under eyes.
The only warning is, if you have to go ANYWHERE near water, stay clear of this, it does not end well... unless you like looking like you have to black eyes.

I'm also wearing:
MAC Gold Mode Pigment
Hard Candy High Maintenance (Darker side)
Sally Girl E/S Soft Pink
Nars: Exhibit A Blush
Lash Stiletto

And that's it for this post!

A Quick Love Affair

I am 100 % in love with a foundation, it's all I have been using since I got it... So about 2 weeks (which is saying something especially for me. I rarely use the same foundation 2 days in a row, I mean for heaven sakes I have enough foundation to cover a small country why neglect the others).

It's a little bottle weighing in at 30ml (same size as the mac primer sp50), but oh does it pack a punch. The bottle says light coverage but with it I don't need concealer. Light coverage as in it makes you look natural and not matte but not that obnoxious "Hi I decided to spread glitter on my face." and it doesn't make you look like a cake face. Its gorgeous and has a great smell, the only down side is it doesn't hide my HUMONGOUS pores (that may be a tad exaggerated).

So if you scrolled down to cut to the chase and saw what the product is, you dont get the whole climax of a story thing, but if you didn't DRUM ROLL PLEASE! (Ok just imagine one).

I am the color 07 golden beige, I feel proud that im not the lightest or second to lightest (although I bought those shades, just in case). This is just a tad (and honestly a really eency weency bit I'm being picky here) orangey on my skin, but it looks gorgeous kinda like that i was out tanning all day look, and not too much that it makes my neck look odd, its just right. In my opinion I love that little orangeyness too it, so many foundations are so yellow based or too pink that when I put them on I have to cake on the bronzer just to make me look like a ...the word mime definitly comes to mind, that white cake face with no color. Anyway just a little of track, I usually only use a dab for 1/2 my face.Compared to other foundations that is tiny (i usually slather it on).

This foundation is heaven sent! It makes my skin feel breathable doesnt cause any you know whats. I found this at big lots, honestly I have always been one of those biased people who think drug store foundation will cake and clog your pores, and this is honestly one of the only ones I have (next to an almay one I purchased, same place, same time). it was $3.50. So let the lesson be learned, you can find a good drugstore foundation just keep your eyes open.

Did I mention I love the sent too! Almost like a hybrid of the bronze universal and somthing else, I cant put my finger on. And what have you got to loose $3.50?

A Little Tid Bit: Sunglasses & Whores

So I might start this segment, kinda of somthing I will just throw up here randomly when somthing happens and when I say somthing I mean somthing funny and light and somthing that will be somewhat amusing (at least to me).

So I had a really dramatic look on today, and we went to Trader Joe's (TJs) and Henry's ( a grocery store )

When me and my mother were in TJs, my mom bumped into a friend of hers so i put on my sunglasses because I didn't feel like embarrassing her. After she told me to never do that again because I looked like a stoner.

Later we walked into Henrys and it went a little somthing like this:

"Ok so I wont put on my sunglasses in here so I want look like a stoner"
"Good."
"I'll Just look like a whore."
"At least whores provide pleasure."

Just to have my mom tell me that made my day. :)
