NOT MY LIPSTICK!!!!!!!!

Reds

Lord give me strength!!!! Okay so from the name of this blog it should be severely obvious what my favorite thing in the world is -other than shoes of course! But shoes wouldn't do me like this!!

Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

Reds

Hey Lipstick Lovers!!! Today is the day of love but I know everyone isn't feeling it. I know they call it "Singles Awareness Day" as well but if maybe it's not the right time for you to be in a relationship. Personally I'd rather wait for THE RIGHT one or a BETTER one than just settling for ANYone! And as I said earlier on twitter, you don't have to have a valentine to celebrate Valentine's Day! BE YOUR OWN!!! Now don't look extra desperate and send an enormous gift to yourself at work, or flaunt some sweet sentiment claiming it came from a "Secret Valentine". That's not cute, its crazy & crazy definitely ain't cute! Just hang out with those who DO love you like have a spa day with the…

Party Over Here!!

Reds

by The Blonde OneIts time to start raking the racks for the perfect holiday party outfit!! Whether its a staff party or getting together with friends remember these tips when searching for that end of the year soiree ensemble!Good thing is that its party season so cocktail dresses aren't hard to find -but the bad thing is that they aren't hard to find, so you could show up to the event with a twin in the same ensemble. Yuck! lol! But that can happen any day and there are simple ways to fix that.- Shop at a boutique. Most boutiques boast their one of a kind clothes and if thats true then you're guaranteed not to run into a copy cat!- Not in the mood to search for a boutique?…

The Break-Up: What Lies Ahead

Plums

When a relationship has reared its ugly head many people find themselves trapped at a back door. Meaning, they often feel as if there’s no way out and a new beginning is close to impossible to achieve. A problem that most people face is actually pushing that past experience out the back door and entering into a new phase of life. Every relationship that’s not meant to be has to come to an end; therefore those involved should make sure they are ready to face the music. People directly affected by a devastating end should remove themselves from all kinds of additional sorrows that linger through the night. There is only enough time to bounce back from the situation and allow the SELF to reap all the benefits of being…
