Instagram Killed My Blogging Vibe

Recently, a good blogger friend of mine said this.
I wholeheartedly concur.
I have been working full time for the past few months and have had a lot less time to devote to my beauty blog. For those of you who have continued to support an encourage me behind the scenes, THANK YOU.
For those of you who have patiently awaited a post and have not unfollowed, THANK YOU!

I have tapered back my makeup spending and focused more or getting some wardrobe basics to anchor my closet. At this point, I do have way more clothes than any human being should have. If I didn't buy another stitch of clothing, I would not be naked at all.I'm focusing on weeding out unworn items and things that are too big for me. I lost about 25 pounds and have been able to maintain that weight. Although I have more weight to lose, wearing clothes that are too big are just unflattering and make one look bigger than one really is.

I bought some more earrings from LoveliiYou on etsy.
I decided to make my own.
What have you been up to lately?

MAC Prep N Prime Highlighter Bright Forecast

For about 3 months I have been following tredayy on Instagram.
I was awestruck by her highlight.
Finally I delved in and purchased MAC Prep N Prime Highlighter Pen in Bright Forecast.
It cost $25 for .12 fluid ounces. OUCH!
It has a brush tip.
I feel a little bit does go a long way.
I had to click this thing like 14 times in order for any product to finally come out!
I store this on it's side as recommended by the MUA online.

I corrected my dark under eye circles with an orangey studio fix concealer.
I added a concealer 1 shade lighter than my normal skin tone. I added Bright Forecast and blended it with a damp sponge. I set it with Ben Nye Banana Powder. I added NARS Gold Highlighter from the Foreplay palette with a dual fiber small brush.
I set my entire face with Urban Decay All Nighter spray.









On first the day that I wore this outside, men were going out of their way to greet me.
I'm not promising you will get the same results when you wear this. I'm just warning you.

Do you own this product?
Would you consider purchasing it?
I would definitely purchase it again.

Fab Fashion Find - Blazers

I happened upon some clearance plus sized blazers at my local SEARS.
Apparently they were overlooked in the stockroom and they wanted to get rid of them, so they set a price point of $3.99! The original price for each of them was $44.00.

Of course I grabbed one in each of the colors available.

COBALT

Although they are not lined, they do have ruched 3/4 length sleeves and faux pockets on the front. The lapel is not too wide. I plan to wear mine with t-shirts, and jeans. They even dress up a button down shirt or can be worn over a dress. I find them great for hot days where the airconditioning is bone chilling.

PURPLE

They are on trend for Spring and Fall.

BLACK

Do you own any Blazers?
Which color is your favorite?
