Outfit for 2-20-13

February 20, 2013

Top – Wrapper  Skirt – Guess Shoes – New York Transit I don’t think I have worn this top in any of my outfit posts before.  I purchased this on a trip to various consignment stores that Jules and I went on this past summer.  On this trip we headed towards the San Francisco Bay area.  We shopped in San Jose and Fremont mostly.  I wish I could remember where exactly I purchased this particular top, but alas, I do…

Outfit for Monday 1-14-13 – Love the Boots!

January 14, 2013

Sweater – Moreno Jeans – Guess White & Black Top – Guess Boots – Nine West Hmm… I think I see some themes in my outfits.  Guess and Nine West anyone?  Okay, you are right, that theme is there, but it is not my fault that Guess makes such nice clothes, that flatter my body type wonderfully and that Nine West makes such cute shoes.  Ooh, and very importantly, both of these shops are at most of the outlet malls…

Outfit for October 15th

October 16, 2012

Jeans – Guess White Top – Converse All Stars Black Top – Merona Boots – Nine West Ah a lovely nice fall day.  It was in the 70s today while I was out and about.  Of course you know that these are my favorite pair of jeans.  The only thing I don’t like about them is that they are so dang long, I have to make sure that I wear heels that are tall enough so that they do not…

Makeup – Blush

October 3, 2012

Blush has never been one of my favorite things.  I used to not use it at all.  My problem with blush is that many people who use it, over use it.  This gave me the wrong impression of blush.  I kind of always thought that if you used it at all, it would leave you looking all rosy cheeked, which I personally think looks quite unnatural.  I also really don’t like the swath of red swiped across many peoples cheeks.…

Makeup – Foundation

October 2, 2012

Possibly the most difficult part of my own makeup routine to do well is the foundation.  I am much better at it now than I ever used to be.  I think much of it has to do with the quality of the makeup I currently use as well as the instruction I have received and the practice I have done. Initially I purchased my foundation at a local convenience store.  I probably purchased about 10 different types and colors of…

What a Mess of Makeup

October 1, 2012

This is the pile of makeup once I emptied it from my makeup case.  I don’t happen to have a picture of said makeup case, but I will let you know that it is large.  Very large.  I personally hate having all of my stuff jammed into a way too small space.  I don’t like like knowing that I have a particular eye liner for instance, and then having to scrounge through all of my items searching desperately for it.…

Love the Skirt!

September 7, 2012

Top – Guess Skirt – Guess Shoes – Report I may have shown this outfit before today, but I love, love, love it!  The skirt is the greatest.  I bought it not too long ago as a replacement to a similar skirt that I own and really like.  The older skirt was wearing out because the zipper was dying.  It really frustrated me because I love the fit of the skirt and everything was fine with the skirt except for…
