When I first started doing makeup in 2003, I was super into crazy colors and wild looks every.single.day. Now, I'm more inspired by the pared down - back to basics type of thing. It is so easy to put 10 colors on a person and make them look crazy but harder to make them look simply beautiful and radiant.
Adele is so symmetrical. Gorge!
What in the creamy brown eyeshadow heaven?
That blush/highlighter is the bomb!
Were those freckles drawn on because I want some!

Home| Purple Heart
Purple is my favorite color. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about changing how my home looks. It should be a reflection of me and if it is...I'm super dull. Upon looking for some inspiration to spruce my home up, I came across these lovely images of adding some purple to the home. (all images found via google search)

My latest nail inspiration!
How cool are these Ombre Nails?? Source
I have a thing for lightning bolts. I love the matte texture of the pink polishes and then the shock of the gold. via NailSide.
How cute and quirky are these?? I would love this for a weekend in Vegas or Atlantic City. via NailSide
Have you ever heard of magnetic nail polish?
Birthday Festivities
My birthday is on February 4th.
While that date is always emblazoned in my mind, when it comes around, I feel as though its kind of anticlimatic since I've only been waiting for it all year. This year, I'm torn between wanting something super simple with 3 or 4 people or wanting a big blowout or just staying home.

New Year. New Life.
Happy New Year Folks!! I have big plans for this year and I want to start out on the right foot. The whole purpose of vision boards is to create a your future by picturing it. Once you picture it, it is a constant reminder of where you want to go, forcing your thoughts and then actions into place.
This is my vision board for 2012.
I want a lot of things that are pretty self-explanatory on there....but a person like me...I would get very overwhelemed looking at all of these things thinking I would have to make them all happen by next month. So, I decided to break them down each month and create a monthly vision board to keep me on track and make sure I can accomplish all of these things.
This is January's vision board. These are things I want to accomplish by February 7th. That gives me a full month to get it together. By February 7th, I should have that month's vb ready and so forth and so on....I'm excited but I don't want to make pretty pictures...I want to make a change in my life!
What are your big changes this year? How are you achieving them?

Home| Black and White
This weekend, I visited my brother in North Carolina. His place was so well put-together, I was shocked! While he always had style...it is always worrisome entrusting a man to design his pad. He kept it simple. He loves black, white and gray and so his house - the entire house was decorated with those 3 colors....its kind of hard to mess up that color scheme. He had some stripes here and there but for the most part, he had solids that coordinated with each other. Anyways, he is the inspo for this post. He did his lil sis proud!
Never thought to put gold with black and white. Love!
