Dont give me the Cold Shoulder

Your Moped or Mine?

Oh just another day at the office ya know! So this is a fun little post. I got to drive this little Honda moped around the parking lot a couple times. I was a natural I must say! If I didn't have such a far commute I would definitely invest in this zippity do dah!

Harem or Parachute?

Is it Monday or is it Tuesday I have been confused all day. Oh well it was totally worth the confusion to be spoiled with a three day weekend! Now for the real dilemma Are these fun trendy pants Harem Pants or Parachute Pants??

So if you like me were not around in the 80's and need a bit of clarification on this trend I hate to LOVE... Here is what my research has yielded.

 

Harem Pants: A style of pant which has a long crotch and wide ballooning legs. Traditionally they are tight only at the ankle and made in lightweigh fabrics. Info Source

Parachute Pants: Are a modified version of a harem pant. They have a low crotch, but instead of the leg staying the same width all the way down, they begin to taper at the knee, becoming narrow at the ankle.Info Source

Product Review: Ample Amber

 

I purchased this Ample Amber Chubby Stick from Clinique in Belk for $16!

 

 

First of all a little background, My sister is a Clinique Counter Manager at a Belk in Texas. So everything I purchase there usually requires her approval or her recommendation. I like to play with different products, but for Clinique, Estee Lauder and Lancome - I usually take her advice.

So anyway, I'm thinking I'm doing so good going to get my lotion... then the Clinique girl is like "Oh by the way if you spend $50 you get a free full-size Moisture Surge" - Me being me I cannot pass this deal up for another like $6. So I was like ok I'll try this eye chubby stick because I love the Chubby Lips. As soon as I tell Chelsea she is like "Oh, I hate those!" (typical comment)

 

I decided, maybe she doesn't know everything she thinks she does and I tried it... I would recommend the product.

The Ample Amber color is nice- the stick is easy to apply and it blends really well. I would not wear this color all over my lid, because it would make my lids look mostly peachy-pink! It is great to use if you like to blend your shadows though.  

 

So take that Sister Sue! (That's the term that my sister and mom use when we are talking about one of us to the other one.)

Oh My Metallic

Spring Scheme!

OK so first of all this is a throwback to pre-ombre! Hate to do y'all that way , but I used a different camera than I normally do and so it through my off a little on my uploading. That would also be why these photos are different sizes, but I wanted to post anyway. These colors are always some of my favs to wear together. I wore this to a local Dogwood Festival!

Yay! Ombre

So I jumped on the ombre-wagon! It's a little different than I originally wanted, but I always feel that way the first few days after getting a new do. I'm embracing it~ Still looking at myself in the mirror is a shock though. I wanted kind of a carefree but glitzy vibe to showcase the new hair, so this is what I came up with.. Enjoy and Be Fabulous!
