It’s just me and the boys tonight, El Hub and Tabs, per usual.
We were all supposed to go to a movie (About Last Night), but Tabs totally ditched us (no explanation, either), so it’s just gonna be El Hub and moi.
Cats are so rude, aren’t they? After I Fandango’d the tickets this afternoon, I walked out of my office and saw a pile of Louis Vuitton bags by the front door.
I guess Tabs is going somewhere? I kept getting mysterious texts today, too, like one from his car service saying that his “flight is on time.”
Whatev!
I hope the movie’s good… It has a 75% on rottentomatoes. That’s a good sign.
Other than that — and this sounds a little weird — we have to run to Target to get a space heater tonight because our gas line is off. Yup, the contractors who’ve been fixing our siding for the past couple weeks discovered a problem with the gas line, and so we’re trying to figure out how we’re going to stay warm and shower…
Most romantic-al Valentine’s Day ever!
Needless to say, necessity will be the mother of invention tonight. I think we’re going to try to improvise something with a 5-gallon bucket filled with hot water from the stove or an empty 5-gallon spring water bottle.
I feel like this is the kind of situation where chocolate can help… And maybe also caramel.
About my makeup, I didn’t feel too ambitious tonight, so I just went with my default going-out eye look — a brown smokey cat eye with a bright lip.
It’s called lazy girl makeup, yo! 🙂
Thank goodness for the NARSissist Palette. It made getting ready easy, since I didn’t have to go searching high and low for different shadows.
BAM! — it was all right there.


I hope you had a great day. If I swing by See’s later tonight, can I get you a piece of candy while I’m there? What would you like? I think I’m having something with caramel.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

You look hot, Lady K! Hope you and el Hub have a fantastic V-day. Mr. Kitten and I ran errands (we had a monster snow yesterday – about a foot with up to 6 inches projected for this evening so we were a little stir crazy) in slush and slop. So to avoid black ice and terrible roads we had a valentine’s lunch at our fave Mexican restaurant (mmm, tacos de pescado…). I had to make him promise me we would get OUT this weekend so perhaps I can do some springtime makeup shopping. Cause if it is nothing but white outside at least I can have some spring flowers on my face!
Looks lovely Karen!!
My boyfriend is working so we are having a nice dinner tomorrow at Disneyland. A buffet, my favorite!
So sorry your gas line is out :-/ If a movie got 75% on RT, I need to see it! Love your look. Yu has been catching my eye. You look fab!
Happy Vday to you too Karen 🙂 Love the lips! 🙂 have a lovely movie date!
I love the black eyeliner.
Does your eyeliner stay put on your water and tight line? I can’t find one that doesn’t move on me.
Gorgeous makeup, just wow!
Karen you look beautiful! I hope you had a good valentines day with El Hub. The whole heater thing really sucks, I hope you get it figured out quickly!! Gosh I love Sees candy, so tasty.
Beautiful Valentine’s look, Karen! We’re on vaca in SF and I haven’t had a chance to wash my hair and I don’t dare look in the mirror!
I can’t decide which I love more – your makeup look or that fabulous sparkly lips sweater!
I want both! (your skills and the sweater, that is) 😀
I hope you had a fabulous Valentine’s Day!
I like the look, have EL Hubs take you to a B&B!
Ahh Karen, you’re gorgeous! Yu looks amazing on you! Happy Valentine’s Day! So sorry to hear about the gas line. I hope they’ll get it back up soon! I had the same problem last year for a few days in winter. It wasn’t fun!
Oh Karen you looked AH-mazing!!! 🙂 I hope you had a great Valentine’s Day yesterday.
Love this lip color! Your makeup came out great.
You look so fabulous! I love NARS Yu on you.
We went to dinner at one of our favorite restaurants (they also catered our wedding). The place only has about 8 tables, so it was keeping full!
We went straight from work, so I was just wearing typical minimal work makeup.
I really love your eye makeup !
Happy Valentines to you too.
Love your lipstick!
Tabs was likely visiting a secret Valentine, methinks ;). Or maybe yet another fantastic location shoot that he will talk about tomorrow?
What shades from the nars palette did you use in this look? Love it!
Geez louise, Karen–you’ve REALLY mastered the art of the smokey eye/perfect feline flick. Seriously, this eye is EVERYTHING I strive for! This is the look I would wear out every single day if I could replicate it! And the lip color is so fun paired with it too 🙂
Hope you had a nice Valentines Day with your hubby!
Very pretty look – perfect for Valentine’s Day! Please tell where you got your sweater from!

Karen, are you doing anything different to your skin? You have been looking so fab lately… I mean you’re always beautiful but you’ve been glowing. Happy belated Valentine’s Day to you, El Hub and Tabs!!
