After a weekend of snow i am ready for spring. I want to wear thin cotton dresses with sandals and eat Mr. Softies and have to put on sunscreen. I can just imagine lying in the sun but it's still February. Waiting sucks :(
As many of you should know by now, pastels are the new "Thing". I love pastels and they are very easy to wear but as it is February, wearing a light pink dress with light blue flats isn't very appropriate. So let's keep it on our faces. Pastels aren't mean to overwhelm your face so a sheer-ish color with a hint of shimmer works best. you can then layer that or leave it simple. Most people look good in light green but light purple and blue also work nicely. Light eyeshadow is very versatile so you can pair it with any lip color. I prefer to keep the rest of my face simple with some gloss but you can be very daring. Red lips would complement shimmery pastel eyes if your very confident, or you could create a cat eye with the color with rosy cheeks.
This makeup for ever shadow has a little shimmer and is great for layering. It can look very intense and matte if you want or like a light pastel. the purple color has a little red in it so it would look good on many people.
I like to use Clinique and makeup forever for light eyes, but to each their own.

Right now

Is crazy! I was about to blog about spring until this crazy snowstorm started. In these confusing times, I've put two outfits together to keep things interesting so you don't grow bored of your winter wardrobe.
Almost everyone has a cozy sweater, so just add a bright leggings and a beret. Neutrals are very in and this outfit is made of very comfortable fabrics. (Rick Owens cashmere Sweater-Net-a-porter.com; French connection leggings-Johnlewis.com; Margiela jacket-net-a-porter; Liberty brand hat-Liberty.co.uk; Carvin shoes-net-a-porter.com)
For those wanting to embrace the spring trend of nautical can do it easily. A nautical dress can be worn in February if you add jeggings and a trench. Hot pink boots keep this interesting.(the dress is out of stock from oli.co.uk; Burbury prorsum coat-Mytheresa.com; seven for all mankind jeggings-net-a-porter.com; Ami clubwear boots)

Key pieces for days like this? Leggings and scarves; they'll keep you warm but it easy to incorporate style into them.
Well, go rainproof you leather and suede and have fun!

Help

So I decided not to lie around all day but I have nothing to do! I could go on the computer and look at more fashion shows or make brownies or go to the park but I don't know! I cleaned and dressed and opened the shades and put on my lovely new headband(Thank you so much Ms. Yes and Yes!). Help!!!!!!!!!!! Let the ideas flow so I don't destroy my house out of boredom or worse, change back into my PJ's!

Been popping cheerios like a toddler

First of all, Rest in peace artistic genius Alexander Mcqueen.

Now, I hope everyone heard We Are The World. I heard it two days ago and then remembered it today because it started playing while I got a long needed manicure (Essie-Jam n Jelly:The best color ever! Bright-but-not-neon pink with a purple shimmer.) One nail has chipped a little though :(
I've spent the majority of the last two hours going to the computer and running back to my room. Damn salmon! I usually love salmon but that smell was TERRIBLE!
I received Elle last night and I was sooo happy! Keira Knightly looks beautiful and the articles are great but what grabbed me was the accessories and makeup. The animal print wedges were to DIE for. Maybe I'm just loving animal print right now. I
want everything animal print now but i have to restrain myself; no prints at school :(
Goodbye, I have to return to reading blogs while popping cheerios like a toddler ;)

If this day was a movie...

...It would be called Snow Day: The Day we all hoped would come

Who's excited?!!?

The Superbowl is tomorrow! I didn't even wathc it until last year but this time is different. I'm being pulled two ways and don't know which team to root for! There's the New Orleans Saints, with Reggie Bush, Kim Kardashian's Boyfriend. And of course, the Indianapolis Colts, With Hank Baskett, Kendra's Husband. I have a green football shirt which doesn't match either team so I think I might have to root for both teams. That would mean jumping and getting excited at each goal and being happy with whoever wins. Sounds nice but I find myself now leaning towards the Colts. It's going to be a hard choice but I'll just suffer through it. In the meantime, Who do you prefer? Kim or Kendra? Reggie or Hank? Saints or Colts?

new thingie!
