Green Look

Hip Hip Hooray! I got my card reader today!!

A few weeks ago was my fiance's grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. I wore a white skirt w/green detail and decided to wear a necklace I was gifted a few months ago, but never had anything to wear it to.

Family friends from Norway got this for me on their trip to Thailand last winter. Isn't it beautiful?

hooray me!

I took a shot at doing my roots myself this time around and I think I did a pretty decent job. I mean it's not perfect but it's acceptable
Before, After Bleach, After Toner. 

Yeah it's a little fried but after a few hot oil treatments it should be back to normal =]
These short posts will end soon. I should have my card reader by the end of the week!

Crappy Quality

So I found this in my library today and sadly the picture quality is crap, I had to take pictures of my digicam display screen w/ my webcam. hahah


Once I get the actual pictures off the camera I'll repost this look with the products I used (if I can remember)

I am in love love love with Banana Republic right now

They have a new collection out...

Mad Men.
It's gorgey.



Wish it didn't cost me an arm and a leg ! Mad Men Collection





Sorry



Sorry I haven't done... anything in a while. I've been covering like 3 peoples shifts at work and I helped move my friend into her new apartment this last weekend.

A few notes.
I got my giveaway package from Shannon Lipstick Makes The Girl last Friday and I must say I've been playing with it daily. I love love love all the e.l.f. lipglosses and I found that even though I've been afraid of straying from reds and pinks, oranges(peachy/coral) look pretty darn good on me as well. I can't wait to show you guys

Last Saturday was International Tiki Day and so there were many parties afoot in the tiki community. My mom went to her favorite annual party and asked me to do her makeup. She wanted to be daring but changed her mind last minute so I had to quickly swipe a brown over the orange to mute the brightness.

First thing on my list next Thurs is to go buy that SD reader that I keep telling you I'll get, because I have things to post and makeup to play with. All these extra shifts at work should give me a good chunk of change to use. And now that Brandon got a job *hooray* I'll have even more spending money =]


ps.
I still haven't gotten my hair done *sigh* but I got very bored last week and did this :
Beyond The Zone Color Jamz - Candy Apple Red
applied in the center of the strand of hair (leaving a good four inches of blonde up to the scalp), feathered into the blonde for blending
Manic Panic - Ultra Violet
applied from tips up to the line of Color Jamz  - I used my fingers to kind of blend the two colors together for a much more even line.

I do plan to go buy some cottoncandy pink soon to help blend the under layers into my top layers. 

It's fun to have fun colors in my hair again, it's been about 3 years

I Speak For The Trees

What was your favorite Dr. Seuss book growing up?
If you couldn't guess. Mine was The Lorax. I think this book is why I became the TreeHugger I am today. lol =]

But I speak of this only because I've been thinking about getting inked again and I thought that nothing would be better than a Lorax tattoo and saying on me forever.
What do you think?
