My Look: Mirror, Mirror...

I am not good at "mirror selfies". I am very new to the whole taking a picture of myself in the mirror thing. So bear with me on that. I'd love to do more outfit of the day type posts (you know, on the rare days I get dressed lol), so I will be practicing. Here is what we have so far.

This particular day was about a week ago, and I was headed out for another birthday bash (a birthday is an event you know) I will post whatever info I have below pics.

Phone case - Big Lots

Hair - Revlon Deep Waver

Jeans - American Eagle

Striped Top - Plato's Closet (not sure it's origin)

Vest - ?? Kohl's possibly. It has a skinny racer back, and it's long and drapey. 

It was a hand - me - down. 

Necklace - Rhinestone high heel. Forever21

Eyes - Lorac Unzipped palette

Cheeks - Tarte Exposed blush

Lips - Nothing. I eventually wore Jordana's Cranberry Crush

My Look: Casual Mommy Monday

     I have a love/hate relationship with long weekends. It's nice having hubby and kids here, but it takes me hours and hours on the following Monday to put my house back in order. Needless to say, it was a sweats and simple makeup kind of day.

Some of today's products: Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze, Essence single in Party All Night, Wet n Wild MegaLiner, NYC Color Wheel blush in Rose Glow, Hard Candy Tiki highlight, Milani Brow Fix kit.

My Über sophisticated and high couture outfit of the day, complete with intricate updo (lololol!)

So what are you all doing on this Monday? Recovering from the weekend as well?

Have a lovely day beauties!

I love Instagram. The filters just make such pretty pictures (see above haha).

   I purchased a couple of the new balm stain thingy's by Jordana. The colors I chose were Candied Coral (woah baby, in your face color!) and also Cranberry Crush, which I am wearing in this look. I'm really super liking them. "Super liking"? I think I just turned 5 years old LOL. Anywho, I think the cranberry shade is such a perfect fall color. If you know me, bold lips scare the crap out of me, but I can work this one.

My Look: I Blue It

       I have come to the conclusion that I am much, MUCh better at applying gel liner than I am at liquid. It doesn't matter what type of tip it has, how fine it is, I just suck at liquid liner. Gel liner is so much easier! 

     You may also notice that I dyed my hair brunette. I wanted to cover up the pink, as it was fading pretty quickly. Well let me tell you, I destryoed my beautiful blonde highlights for nothing! My hair is now a pinky purple color underneath! It also has an ashy green tint to it from being blonde before. I couldn't win for anything this time around. We'll see what happens after I wash it a few times. 

Keep reading to see what I used for this look!

My Look: Crazy Hair... Don't Care

   

When I sat down this morning to do my makeup, I had a palette in mind to use. I sat there staring at at for a few minutes, then just closed it up and put it away. Next I pulled out my UD Vice Palette (love, love, love!) and I got to work! I can always come up with a good look with that palette, it's just so awesome!

    I actually got the idea for this look from Rachel on YouTube (icallitambrosia), she came up with look to represent her favorite Starbucks drink. I just like the dark brown colors for fall, so I went with it. I have done this look before, so I just went from memory this time, as it is fairly simple.

Lorac Pro Palette Look #2

Happy Saturday Loves!! xo

As you may have noticed from the above picture, I dyed the underneath of my hair BRIGHT PINK! I love love love it! It is a permanent hair dye, so we shall see how it looks as it fades out eh? If you'd like a separate post as to how I did it, leave me a comment below :)

For todays eyeshadow look, I again used my Lorac Pro Palette (hence the title of this blog...) I also used it yesterday and absolutely love the look I came up with, but of course I didn't take any pictures. (Story of my life...) If you'd like to see how I came up with this eye look, keep reading!

My Look: Lorac Love

Hi my dears!
