2013 in Emerald.

The color of the year is emerald (basically beautiful shades of green). If you're on a budget yet a fashion whore you MUST find a way to incorporate the color of the year! If  like me you can hunt a beautiful emerald jacket from Banana Republic for $7.00 then no worries but I have to admit not everyone travels with my shopping luck. So here is a sure way to shop on and keep a full happy wallet!    xx TBT

Company you keep...

I went to a Sephora Smashbox event for Curtis Kulig with a great friend & of course we had a blast! For as the swell Epictetus says: " The key is to keep company with only those who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best."

Winter sugar lips

During the winter my lips are so cracked, not only are they unattractive (I have to be very selective as to what lipstick I use), but they can also  be excruciatingly  painful! This winter it's a bit different due to this lip scrub I found some where online. I tend to do it when ever I remember I should. Plus you get to enjoy a natural wine lip color, enjoy!    xx TBT

1/2 a lemon
tbs of honey
tbs of sugar
*mix together and scrub lips with a toothbrush.

Welcome... for many reasons.

    Realizing what my dreams are and taking steps towards realizing them can be described as no shorter of an emotion than thrilling. I am glad that I am where I stand (I'm actually laying) right now: Where you stand right now is where you belong at this very moment; for a reason. xx TBT
