The life I live....



I'm a music lover who at the end of the day wants to feel as if she lived that day the best she could. Creating an amazing meal, hanging out with the amazing people I call friends, rocking out to some amazing tunes, buying a great piece of clothing or wearing bright pink lipstick..... Im optimistic about life and highlighting the moments that make it unique....

It's Wednesday!

Today is the first day I can honestly say its feeling like it's fall and it's amazing!!! It's cold. Rainy..... I love it! Tonight I can only imagine me sitting on my couch with my cat, blanket and homework watching a rumbling fire and Modern Family. That's actually the worst, trying to do homework on Wednesday's and Thursday's when ALL the best shows are on. A new show I am totally hooked on like the commercial said I would be is.......Revenge! Yes PLEASE! Love it!

So, today I was running a little late and put together and outfit piece by piece deciding what I was going to add to which room I walked through and what I found. It wasn't intentional, but it worked out pretty well. I put on my legging pants and sweater on in my room, headed to the bathroom where I found my hair clip and earrings sitting on the cupboard from where I dropped them off last. I walked into the living room and looked through my shoe box and found my leopord shoes. Walked into the kitchen found my pearl ring and right before I walked outside the door I spotted my blue blazer and scarf on my coat rack and boom.... that was it. Here is how it turned out:
Oh, PS - I was running so late I had to take my pictures in the bathroom at my work ( real professional, I know )

( without my blazer )

I really like how my sweater sleeves are longer that my rolled up blazer sleeves....




Blazer: Forever 21

( Man I should seriously be a rep for Forever 21 )

Whatta Think???

This week I also bought a new makeup product and I love it! I'm posting it because I suggest you go out to the store and buy yourself some, your skin will thank you.
I have oily, acne prone skin with pretty large pores and this foundation completely covered all my flaws up, and made my pores look smaller - that NEVER happens! I am not one usually for liquid foundation, but I decided to give it a try and I really, really am happy I did.


What's really cool about this foundation is that it has a make up brush already attached. Earlier in my life I didn't realize the importance on using a brush to apply cream foundation, but it makes your application so much more flawless and plus- you don't touch your face which means less breakouts.


I really enjoy how this make up is " Age Defying " because me being 24 it's time to start taking really good care of my skin for my older years. Again, another thing that I used to never think about, but this is the skin that I will have for the rest of my life. It's time to start protecting it. A great plus to this makeup is that it has 18 SPF in it which is pretty great for a make up....

Today I chose a nude colored lipstick with a shimmery gloss.... worked very nicely with the color of my scarf...





Well, I'll leave you off with that fact I am excited for tonight - minus homework! Dan and I think we will make soup and sit by the fire ( I hope ) and watch our favorite TV shows... Sadly I am coming down with a nasty cold that I hope leaves me in time for the weekend..... So lots of tea, fluids and mediactions will be in my future as well.... Have a good night!
