1. Well, that’s about the most clever washi tape idea ever. 2. So you know I have a major girl crush on Lisa Eldridge. Well, she’s recently published a bunch of videos on finding your perfect foundation. They are brilliant. Check them out here. 3. Here are a couple of my Style United posts from [...]
1. Have I shown you all my new shoe closet? Wait…I don’t have a shoe closet. Oh well, I can still dream of this one. 2. Swimming! Who swims out there? I’m off the running for the next 6-8 weeks while I go to physical therapy for my back/tailbone issues, and I’m looking into some [...]
To all my fellow beauty junkies, I just found the coolest little gem on Sephora’s website for color swatching. You know those times when you can’t get to the retail store, but really really want to check out a lipstick, eyeshadow or nail polish? You’ll love this. Take some of NARS most popular lipsticks, for [...]
1. Eddie Redmayne, your freckles are beyond. 2. There are many things I love about Creature Comforts, but the Color Inspiration posts are the best. 3. I am feeling this curly, chin-length bob. 4. I must say, I’ve become relatively proficient in reading and breaking down food labels, and this post by A Dinner and [...]
Ladies. LADIES. Just try to tell me you don’t experience major flashbacks when browsing through these lipstick shades from the past few decades. Toast of New York! Wine with Everything! Silver City Pink! Memorieeeeeeeeees, light the corner of my liiiiiiiips…
1. Let’s talk about the house, guys. I realize I kind of left you all hanging with all the updates and then….nothing. Well, we’ve been working hard to finish the space, and we are getting really close. (Although, come on, you are never really “finished,” but that’s the fun and/or frustration of it all.) D [...]
Yesterday at lunch, for fun, I asked Wito what he thought the big trend would be at the Oscars that evening. He tilted his head, paused for a moment, and said, “Silver. Sparkly silver, mom.” Well, the kid called it, and I have to say, absolutely loved all the metallics and pale neutrals. Sometimes you [...]
1. I’m always trying to figure out how to create a smoky eye that is more subtle/demure, less vampire/whorehouse. Love the above look, and all the products used are listed in this Glamour article. (And speaking of vampires, that actress is dating Peter Facinelli, aka Carlisle Cullen, who used to be married to Kelly from [...]
Ladies, I’ve been meaning to write this post for months. After years and years of trials and tribulations, I have found the holy grail in mascara. (And you all know I’ve tried them all, right? Drugstore, high end, what have you…have. tried. them. all.) Are you ready? Benefit They’re Real! Mascara. Hands down, this is [...]
Here’s the segment on double duty beauty products that aired last month on Marie, if you are interested! (It’s hard to keep a straight face when I’m referred to as a “beauty expert.” Let’s go with beauty enthusiast next time, okie dokie?)
Merry Day After Christmas! We are in Oklahoma enjoying family, eating/drinking our way into a comatose state, and freezing our tushes off. (All of that complaining about our frigid 59-degree Newport Beach winter season? I take it back. It currently feels like -134 degrees here in OKC.) Hey, if you plan on laying low by [...]
1. How cute is the above graphic by Style United? I loved that they used my handwriting, even if it’s wayyyyyy less cool than my husband’s. 2. Right on the tail of my bootie obsession (seriously, WHEN ARE THE MADEWELL BOOTS GOING TO GET HERE?) is my hat obsession. Here are 10 of my favorites. [...]
Part one here. Part two here. Haven’t written about the good ol’ tattoo in awhile, so I thought I would give you an update. Photos and all the good stuff (including an absolutely raunchy blister) over at Beauty and the Beat. (FYI – I also finished the laser hair removal on my underarms and bikini. [...]
1. This post is a bit of a Whoorl-other-places onslaught today, so feel free to skip. To those of you who stick around, BFF. FOR EVAH AND EVAH. 2. I’m selling some jeans over at Whoorl’s Closet. Check ‘em out, and email me if you are interested! Proceeds go to the Whoorl Kitchen Renovation Fund. [...]
My favorite part of reading magazines as a young teen was finding the little italicized blurb stating the exact brand and shade of makeup that the model was wearing in the photo. It was almost like if I bought that exact shade of lipstick/blush/eye shadow, I would look EXACTLY like the photo. Yeah, not so [...]
