Day 13 - Photo of your fashion/style icon (30 Days of Beauty)

I don't have a style icon.
I have my own style... I'll show you 2 icons though, to give a little insight into what I like :] 

 Victoria Beckham

 Kat Von D

As you can see, these are sort of at each end of the style spectrum, but I like the classic, updated look of Victoria Beckham, and I like to be a little edgy like Kat Von D. I'm into animal prints, loose flowy flattering tops, I love the off the shoulder... I wear my "stunna shades" haha... I like classic, a little sexy, casual, but some sort of statement piece. 

I don't express myself with my clothes, I do it through makeup. So whatever I like, I wear :]

Who are your style icons?

Day 12 - Favorite color (30 Days of Beauty) and a fun link!

My favorite color... hmm...
I can't pick just one color! How about... the colors I don't like as much as the others. Not a fan of pastels. No, too Easter/milky for me. I love bold, bright, deep colors - Emerald green, deep reds, purples, certain blues. What a dumb question lol, I know some people will have a favorite color, but I just can't pick!

Also, here is the fun link:

This site was made by 3 women with a love for the movie Mean Girls, and the color pink. I have signed up to participate in the Pink Wednesdays! Basically, you just show off your pink in the middle of the week via manicures. Very cool, my friend linked me, and it's got some good things! Check it out :] Let me know if you like it, we can all be pink together!

Love you all for reading,
XOXO M

Day 11 - Bag you want to own (30 Days of Beauty)

I'll let the picture speak for itself...

OMGAWWWWWD. I love this bag. I have a JC bowler, but I love the scarf/flowers on this. Plus, it's a tote - I can carry my life around with me :] 

It sucks that everything good costs money, haha....
And update on my haul : I have about half the pictures taken! So many goodies!

Day 10 - Current fashion/style you like (30 days of beauty)

I don't follow fashion religiously, but I do see what is going on...

I like the color blocking trend. I kind of do that anyway, but it's fun and simple. I also really, really like the nail polishes for summer. I recently got this color from Chanel and I LOVE it...


Chanel's "Mimosa"

I can't love this color more. First of all, Mimosa? Yeah, best name ever. You can't see in the picture, but this also has really pretty gold and pink tiny reflects in it... I have it on now, and I'm seeing a little seafoam-y green ones, too. This color looks great on anyone with some summer color, and it's just freakin' awesome :]

Hope you all had a good weekend, I finally got me some tan!

Day 9 - Favorite pair of shoes (30 Days Of Beauty)

I said in a previous post that I can't wear heels anymore, and even though most of them are my favorite shoes, I'm not gonna count them because I don't actually wear them. So, if I take those out of the picture, I'm going to have to go with my flip-flops.
[insert random flip-flop pic here ;)]

this is such a cute picture, haha...
but yeah, totally flip-flops. I feel like you can kind of wear them with everything, and I have a TON of colors. I'll match my shirt usually, or, my toes :]

Now, everyone knows where this is... and yes, I took a picture because it's crazyyyy...

Old Navy. The mecca of flippies :]

So, until next time my friends
XOXO M

[p.s. I AM going to do a haul. Look for it soon-ish]

Day 7 - Favorite animal (30 Days of Beauty)

Um, this question has nothing to do with beauty. Whatever though, I'll answer it even though it doesn't seem that interesting or that anyone would really be interested in the answer, but I will give it the same consideration I gave the other questions. 

Favorite animal (not including domesticated ones) = Arabian horse.


They are huge. And beautiful of course. They can be a good... 18, 19 hands. That is huge. I used to horseback ride, equestrian, went from beginner to advanced... once I reached as high as I could get, my family couldn't afford to send me to a professional school in CT so I gave up my dreams of being a pro. That's ok though, I still get asked to teach, and I still love everything equestrian.
So, yes. The Arabian horse. I want an 18 hand black male, and I will name him Ceasar :] Yeah, I'll keep you updated on that.

On another note, I have SO many new things I've gotten in the last couple of weeks. I'm thinking of making my first haul video. I was going to start the youtube route with a tutorial video, but, I have some good stuff. Also, even if I don't film it, I think I may at least WRITE something. I need to do something, I just don't know what it is :]

I hope you all have a fun, safe Memorial day weekend. Wear sunscreen...?

XOXO M

[and a realtime update... THE BRUINS ARE GOING TO THE STANLEY CUP!]

Day 6 - Anything Hello Kitty (30 Days of Beauty)

I just love Hello Kitty. She's so cute, and before my daughter discovered her and fell in love with her, I thought she was just some anime-like cat. So not the case! She's adorable, and I must say that I am a sucker for this...


I want this ring SO BAD. It's really hard to find things in gold or gold tone, and even harder for it to be cute! I love this. I want this. But I'm not getting it... booooo. I am not spending $500 bucks on it. I love Hello Kitty, but not that much ;]

Happy almost weekend bloggers, hope you all are having nice weather, and no one is in the hurricane zone :/
XOXO M
