Classy or Trashy?

If you're like me, when you think of blue eye makeup, you think of Mimi.

Her outward appearance is so colorful and fun but, not in the best way. When it come to blue eye makeup. Do something sneaky and unexpected. Like eyeliner.

Blue eye makeup  don't have to be cheep or trashy. You can do even more blue than I have and still look like a fun and classy lady! This is just my "everyday" face. :)

What do you think of blue eye makeup?

If you experiment, I would love to see!

Ear Sweets

We are half way through the 31 day challenge! How are you doing? Is there anything you would like me to cover (I don't care if it relates to blue or not ;)?

Since I was busy living life and spending time with the hubby, I didn't get to blog for a couple days. 

Today we're back on track with earrings!I think earrings are my favorite part of jewelry. 

Below are all of the blue hued earrings I own. Some of these are cheapies from big box stores, some are artist made, and some are garage sale finds. I realized I have a pretty good range of blue colors within my earring collection

A close up of my favorites, of course.

How many pairs of earrings do you have?

I'm afraid to find out... I would say around 50. I have a problem. I know.

What is your favorite piece of jewelry to wear?

Earrings, then rings.

Is there anything you would like me to cover during this series?

High Five for Friday!

It's Friday evening and I'm behind schedule! 

Granted, I haven't done a post like this for weeks...

ONE. A day "down below" a.k.a the greater L.A. area.

TWO. My Mitzy Kitzy keeps me entertained. 

I make her tired with all my crafting and creating.

THREE. My husband is awesome. He works hard. He is willing to jump in and help even after a busy day. He is my favorite.

FOUR. My mom and I crafted and created ALL WEEK. Earrings, towels, key fobs, chalk boards, business ideas searching for craft fairs/shows. FUN. Our first one is tomorrow. Hoping we do well! Sparky, pearly, vintage things always make my heart happy.

FIVE. Lunch with friends. I got to have coffee and lunch with a friend from high school. We giggled. A. LOT. Then I had another lunch date with a bestie from middle school. That's right folks... if we become friends, prepare to stick around awhile. ;)

Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend!!!
