Fashion Friday: I'm sorry.

This week was my first full week on 'the boot'....... and my wardrobe has suffered because, it just has. Because I get lazy when I've got a bum foot. No excuses... just facts. But the house hasn't suffer, I have slowly been giving it a face lift.... check it out:

Rug!

Antler candle holders!!
So that's something. 

Here is my humble attempt at fashion this week. Sad, sad state of affairs right herrrrr:
Fiance Hoodie?? Always appropriate.
Closest thing to an outfit... and I changed before I left the house..... ugh.
This pretty much sums up my week: Yoga pants, AF hoodie, and my boot.
My embarrassed, sorry, not sorry, over it face. You're welcome.
Then I decided to get creative with my editing skills for your pleasure. Because everyone needs a little pleasure on Friday:

Be jealous. So jealous. 
Happy Friday! I hope it's semi as cool as mine is going to be.

Wednesday Makeup (Kinda) Review: Fake it till you Make it.

Fake. Bake. 

I love it. I always have loved fake baking.... it's a problems that stems back to my mother's Hawaiian Tropicana days.... (Yeah, she was one of those girls :) You're welcome mom) I have always tanned in one way or the other... usually the most unhealthy ways possible (they are fast... and I'm impatient.) But as I've grown up (Not gotten older) I have realized that I need to take care of my skin and stay away from things that could cause cancer, wrinkles, etc. I have ventured into the world of spray tans, foam tans, lotion tans, and even tan tissues.... And most of the times it ends in disaster, streaks, issues, smells, and many more things that I wish not to revisit.... Remember: Tanning Disaster. That was only a few months ago... I'm still a little gun shy. 

I had heard a lot about Fake Bake and the mitt that it comes with.... it sounded almost to good to be true... so I had to test it out, obviously. I waited months, and finally broke down and spent the whole $15 dollars on Amazon.com to get this stuff.....



I waited till no one was home and I knew no one would be home for a while and I exfoliated.... so much exfoliation. I wanted to make sure my skin was primed... I'm pretty sure it was more raw than primed. Anyway, I was ready. I followed the instructions and sprayed the mitt and started to work my way around my epidermis until I coated, circularly, my entire body. I was shocked. There was not a streak to be seen, a mark to be found, an item out of place. It was on and I wasn't afraid..... This was weird. The smell was not overbearing, and it dried fairly fast. I was impressed. I'm not going to lie. 

After hours and hours and sleeping on it, I woke up to see a pretty tanned behind..... I was pumped. I am going on day five and I am finally seeing it wear down a little bit but for the price, and the smell, and the application, I can't imagine myself using anything else from now on....


No, I didn't go to the beach, I Fake Baked.

Two hour development.... holy cow.
Be Impressed.

My amazing friend Carrie did my makeup today! Check her out here: StaGlam (Blog on her work to follow :))

How to: Birthday Style.

In honor of my brothers birthday I wanted to post a blog about how to celebrate your birthday in the most awesome way possible.... in ten easy steps:

1. Take a bubble bath... in champagne. Call it a birthday bubbly bath. Do it.

2. Have a life size cake made for you... and YOU pop out of it. And then eat it. All by yourself.


3. Rent a Bentley.


4. Hire a clown, and then cancel that crap. No one wants to be scared on their birthday.


5. Charge an expense outfit to your credit card... and regret it tomorrow. Yeah, tomorrow.

6. Find the closest big city... and own it.

7. You need an entourage to own the city, get an entourage. Make sure they are ridiculously good looking.

8. Get a hype man. Everyone needs a hype man, especially on their birthday. 


9. Adopt a sloth... who wouldn't want a sloth, I mean honestly.... best. pet. ever.


10. Then you know, just be yourself. Have fun. Don't try too hard. Life should be easy, especially on your birthday.

Family. Pictures.

Well, it's Wednesday and I have decided that I want to post Monday/Wednesday/Friday so that there is some type of schedule that is easier to follow for you all! I will try to stick with that, don't hate me if I don't LOL

Right now my thoughts were interrupted by a commercial about self lubricating catheters..... so that is happening right now. I hope you are enjoying the visual like I am.... so much so. So great. Self.lubricating.catheter. great. Now that I have that burned into your brain lets get on with Hump day.

I have scheduled family pictures for the past 4 weeks. Every time we go to get them taken it rains. Every single time. And finally today is, hopefully, the day that it actually is going to happen. So here's hoping. And yes, they will be cheesy, goofy pictures. You've been warned. I will post them later along with a fabulous review on our photog.... I can't wait. Can you tell.

Here are some ideas I've been throwing around for family pictures.... let me know what you think:

I like themes.... and this just looked so natural to me.
Sometimes the perfect moment for a picture hits at the perfect moment for a bowl movement, why choose one when you can do both?
Cats. Why not?
I'll bring the hairspray, you bring the spunk. This picture is a home run in my opinion.
Look at the adventure and fun in this picture. Believable?? I think so.
I wanted to do a couples picture, and this all just seemed so...classy.
A family that....is hands on is a family that gets it. Get it, 'hands on'.....
Just so much yes....so much. SO MUCH.
I want to go Medieval on this picture... it's so fabulous.
And then lastly.... what is family pictures without a gun and bird? I don't know, and I don't want to know.

Wish us luck!!

It's FALL!

I need to be honest with you all..... I had a blonde moment this weekend, that lasted until about five minutes ago. After I updated my blog I couldn't figure out how to log in.... yeah. It was embarrassing. So embarrassing. But obviously I figured it out....soooo..... anywho.

It is FALL, it's my favorite time of the year. And now even doubly so (details to follow). So it was obviously time to grab all the Fall clothes (and buy new ones) and start breaking them in this past week. It's been wonderful. Here are a few looks I've been rocking and a few items that are on my wish list:

Trying a lighter look with my makeup.... and fell in love with lip balms again. 
I find it appropriate to rock braids when there are beanies involved. Deal with it. (Note the new aviators.... be jelly)
And then these bad boys. Awesome... right????
