I love this hair, but it doesn't love me. I broke out in a rash near the tops of my eyebrows from the bangs.

I have been searching for a perfect green dress for about 2 years.
I wanted something flattering, comfortable and modern.
I purchased this dress from landsend.com.
The scoop neck was very complimentary on me as I am top heavy.
Hence the reason you will rarely see me in a full body shot unless I am wearing a jacket or a sweater. I had a co-worker snap a full body shot of me in this dress. Let's just say, we were all laughing because we agreed that it looked like there were two little people in the top of my dress. As I often tell my clients, "We all have our blessings in various places."
I found the sleeves to be a good length. I love the blend of materials in the fabric. It is very breathable.
The Modal allows the cotton to retain it's shape.
I wore it with the belt. I received many compliments.
Usually when I like something, I buy it in at least two colors.
This dress is available in ASPARAGUS, WILD CHERRY,
BLACK, and REGENT.
I would love it in black. One can never have too many black dresses.
I know I will be enjoying wearing this dress this summer.

Nails Of The Day (NOTD) - Sinful Colors - CINDERELLA

I picked up this beautiful nail polish over a month ago. I need to buy a backup as I have two teen aged daughters who also agree that it's gorgeous!

I got tons of compliments the first time I wore this.
A lady asked me what color it was.
When I told her, she asked me if it made me
"feel like Cinderella."
My reply was, "No, not really."
*laughing* I just thought it was pretty.






This is the second time that I've worn it.
Duo Chromes are mesmerizing!
I see gold, pink and purple reflects.
They are tiny.
















Base: China Glaze Strong Adhesion
Color: Cinderella x3
Top Coat: Seche Vite
This was difficult to apply.
It was streaky and felt like a flaky nail polish.
I do feel it is certainly worth the effort to get the true color as shown in the bottle.
