MAC Makeup Inspired looks

The pictures from my BlackBerry really don't do the color of my makeup justice...but here are the 2 MAC inspired "TO THE BEACH" makeup looks I did this week using the Coastal Scents 88 Shimmer Palette. I say inspired because I didn't use MAC products and I applied the makeup a bit more to my liking rather then their photo's standards.

Boston Get-A-Way

This past weekend was spent in Boston, MA with my friend from BTV! We didn't do a whole lot due to the yucky weather and my longgg flight delay on JetBlue. However we did make it out to The Capital Grille which is sooo good and $$$, I had the Chef's Special Delmonico Steak...it was huge and I'm usually not a huge steak fan at all but WOW, sooo good as are the mash potatoes and bread. I'll definately be checking out the local ones in the DC area!

Also watched the Celtics game, WOOOooo FINALS BABYYY! haha. As long as they don't go from 1986 to 2008 to win again, lol, talk about dry spell back in the day.

Driving around Boston honestly looks a bit ghetto...kind of like how Baltimore is here, they also are known for seafood. A place of Sam Adams Boston Lager and actually quite a number of movies take place their as well (on that note I will not be drinking the tap water in Woburn...ever). Surprisingly their seem to be a number of Irish settlers here although my local friend has an Italian background. Apparently their will be an occasional moose that may get in your path of driving, avoid hitting them at all costs!

Well it's time for me to go home after a long day at work and hopefully I'll get around to watching Planet 51 and The Princess and The Frog...yeaaa for still being a kid at heart ;)

Shop-A-What

Got this kawaii I <3 Nerds Snoopey T for $9 at Wal-Mart this past weekend!
I even picked up the ever-so-popular wayfaring nerd-esque glasses, these were $5 and I wish they had solid black ones but FAIL. Anywhooo...I totally heart wearing these, feelin' like a librarian/scientist, LOL.
Got another Miley style plaid shirt in blue for $9! Lovin' it more so then my yellow one because it doesn't fluff out in the front and look like it's maternity X.x

Mom and I played like tacky fashion designers in the Target clearance rack this weekend...errr...we basically tried to make outfits outta the crazy stuff we found, but yea...got a good laugh in here and there! I still say its weird how the fashion style of today reminds me so much of Peggy Bundy from Married with Children...Lord help us all, heh.

This weekend I'll be flying up to Boston, MA to meetup with a BlogTV friend I've made over the past few months now, good stuff ;D Oh yea, did ya'll happen to catch my mom break into my bedroom and get on cam with me during my BTV session? kinda embarrassing, heh.

RedBox currently has a deal going for members, if you rent 2 DVD's then within 3 days you'll get a free rental, on that note it's time to watch The Tooth Fairy on DVD for free, c-ya!

Color Me Bored

About a week ago I came across this patriotic bikini that I didn't wanna pass up for some reason. It was $9 for the top and bottom separates at Wal-Mart which is made by Faded Glory, you can also choose which pieces you want in this similar style and it comes in plus sizes ;)

I was just dieing to buy a dark blue frost polish this past week so I scoured the isles of CVS and came across this gorgeous one by Milani called "Bolting Blue".

For $5 at Wal-Mart I couldn't pass up these earrings! I've noticeably been seeing 'em sell like hotcakes after I got mine and these also come in silver. I honestly think dark blue/purple items that are generally consisting of a diamond shape seem super popular this year!

These $13 Wayfaring sunnies I picked up from Target recently are no joke, I've gotten soo many comments from guys at work like "Barbie", "I love your sunglasses" and "Those are soo unique, I like 'em". I also got these earrings for like $8 there, first time I found a woven style earring that I've actually liked! I just saw these earrings online, wonder how they look in person...hrmm XD

I finally splurged a bit on some PrismaColor markers at Michaels the other week and after MUCH debate picked out Blondwood, Light Umber and Aquamarine. Now I just need to start drawing again ;P

That's it for now, I'm going to watch Leap Year and Dear John on DVD since I hit up RedBox ;)
