Pink eye (hardy har har)

No Comments

I know. Third post in one day. I can’t help myself.

Just wanted to let you know that I’m excited and nervous to film my very first tutorial how I apply my own eye shadow. Upcoming video to be filmed soon…when I wake up early enough in the morning.

No more talks about acne serum since my spots that lasted WEEKS finally went away. Don’t know what I did to get rid of them, maybe they just needed time. Either way. Who’s excited to see a Valentine’s Day look? Kinda pink, kinda not. Don’t get too excited though — it’s not going to be drastic. I suck at applying eyeshadow on my right eye. lol

Dairy Queen sale!? Overdose on ice cream

No Comments

I’m on an updating rampage! So fun! Sorry in advance for all the posts in one day!

While I was having fun visiting the other branch at work yesterday…. as you can see from my huge grin.

One of my co-workers mentioned that Dairy Queen was having Customer Appreciation Day. Meaning 50% off everythaaang in the store!!!

I completely forgot about it, til I mentioned it after my Boyfriend and I ate supper last night. So around 9pm we headed out to a different one that my co-worker mentioned and sure enough the windows were painted and tons of people lined up for ice cream.

I ended up devouring (and almost hurling) a turtle pecan waffle thing. Hardly any ice cream, but piled with whip cream, caramel and pecans. Yum. Pre-DQ I tried on my booties that I purchased from Forever 21 on my trip to Toronto over the weekend, and started dancing with them on. If there was only a video. Either way, my dancing lasted a max of 45 seconds. So serious. Then literally about 60 seconds later (delayed reaction anyone) there was someone pounding with a stick on their ceiling, to shut me up. Like what gives? It was 8pm on a week night. It’s not like I dance every night. I was just having fun. It made me mad, and I kind of wanted to dance a little harder, just out of spite. But I didn’t.

Cute right?  “These booties were made for walking dancin”

I’m also very excited to show you all my newly hemmed/tailored pants! Once a pair of wide legged & too short wool pants, now a pair of fitted tailored one’s. I brought in three pairs, and all three look equally as nice. Ugh, so exciting. Next I’ll have to bring my boyfriend in to get his pants hemmed that he purchased ages ago. Though, I don’t think he’ll be needing to bring any of his mens ties in. Not that they tailor those — or do they.

Hottie boytoy and orange hair

11 Comments

I didn’t end up dying my hair at all when I got it done last Friday. In fact, I sort of chickened out.

Initially I wanted to dye my hair all sorts of bright colors like I had done in 2005. Check out my intense orange/yellow hair. It was certainly different, and I remember getting tons of stares from people of all ages. Some weren’t friendly stares, but the people who complimented me on it definitely made up for people giving the stink-eye.

Dying my hair was something I wanted done for the climbing competition. I know, it’s weird – I dyed my hair to climb. But really, I did. I wanted to stand out, lol.

Here’s a photo of me all fake-tanned (BAD!) and dyed hair. The top had light blonde streaks in it:

And the back when I swung my hair around. BAAAAAM orange:

LOVED. IT.

I guess that’s how I caught the beau. With my orange hair, it caught his eye. This is was a BBQ I held at my house and Scott and I became a couple that evening, Ha… way back then. Nearly 6 years ago (no Wedding Jewelry yet. Ahem).  Look how young we are. Also, notice that this was in June and I still had to wear a down filled vest. Oh Newfoundland.

Above photo: A few days before the “bbq”.I miss that chin scruff of his. He won’t grow it back either. Lame.

Well it was nice to reminisce, back to the photos about my hairrr.

I think I’m in need of a change. At least that’s what my stylist said he thinks I need, since I keep asking him about hair dyes. So, in March I think I’m going to go ahead with it. Go crazy again. I remember my hair feeling thicker when it was dyed too.

This was my hair after my orange/yellow streaks. I ended up going for purple and bubble gum pink. I HATED it. I think at that time, it was because I wasn’t a huge fan of pink and I totally let my stylist go while. I loved how it looked when it was faded though, kind of bleach blonde streaks randomly throughout my hair. Note that my hair was “flicked up” to the side, as the pink/purple was hidden underneath a few layers of hair. It wasn’t just BAM pink and purple…lol thought I’d let you all know that.
