Four Eyed and Fabulous





I was inspired and in awe how effortlessly Marilyn transitioned the look of nerdy glasses to glamorous glasses in How to Marry a Millionaire. Not only did I fall in love with Marilyn again but I decided it was time to sport my own vintage inspired Marilyn specs. This image of Marilyn I found online shows her character in the movie so perfectly, if you haven't seen this gem of a movie yet I recommend that you do. Wear your most fab dress, put on some lipstick, fluff your hair, get your Jiffy Pop and plop on your comfy couch and be enamored with the beautiful Marilyn.

Here are some pictures of me with my Marilyn knock offs, I am not quite the babe a licious, glamorous, effortless chic as Marilyn but I'd say a vast improvement from my younger year eye patch phase... xo

Heartbreaker the love test....




i've gotta get my liquid courage on for tomorrow nights KAROKE NIGHT!!!! ... we've been invited to K-town with my fellow coworkers we're all going to this lovely festivity to celebrate a colleagues transfer to Boston. I normally wound not go out on a work night but i've decided to spice things up and in doing so i will even be participating, even though i promised my step-dad I would never sing again in public. I am hoping that all my practicing will pay off and when one of my most favorite songs by Dionne Warwick starts and i am able to belt it out! This is going to be the ultimate test in my relationship my boyfriend is going to see me totally geek out possibly changing the way he thinks of me, not to mention i asked him to video tape it, eek what was i thinking.... to be continued, outlook not so good.....

from sad to glad with a little Mood Lipstick



Whenever I am feeling down in the dumps or I glance at myself in a mirror and do not like what I see. I reach for my Mood Lipstick, I buy them by the dozen, and at $3.99 a dozen how can I resist...
Basically, the darker the shade of the Mood Lipstick the darker pink your lips will be, all that the Mood Lipsticks does is gives you pink lips that last, since they stain your lips too.
I recently read an article about tips to make you look younger and more vibrant, having pink lips was on the top of the list. If bright pink lips scare you try the lightest pink Mood Lipstick and sparingly apply it, you can even add a dab of my new favorite Black Lipstick from my guru Poppy King the Lipstick Queen! Check out this cool video I found with young tweens having so much fun with their Mood Lipstick, this video proves just how fun Mood Lipsticks can be! Enjoy!!! xo
