Kaw, kaw! So, Birdman… Seemed like a long movie to me, but I thought it was interesting and different. The whole thing plays out like one long camera shot, so the scenes sort of flow into each other. I’ve seen that effect before, but I liked the way it worked here.
In the movie, Michael Keaton’s character plays an aging, washed-up actor everyone knows as the man who formerly played Birdman, a comic book superhero he stopped playing in movies many years earlier (kind of autobiographical in that way, since Michael played Batman in the late ’80s and early ’90s). Now he’s producing, directing and starring in his own Broadway play, after investing his life savings into it, and most of the movie is about the shenanigans backstage before opening night. Oh, and he’s also losing his mind… Or something like that.
I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite movie of the year so far, but I liked it.
In related news, TWO WEEKS TILL THIS!!!

My favorite shoes? Lol! My knees will only let me wear flats. Comfortable flats. I like to wear the Mary Janes from Walking Cradles because they’re so comfortable, and they let me show off my hand-knit socks. I have them in three colors, black, navy, and pewter. I also have two different styles of waterproof walking shoes from Clarks, in navy and khaki tan. If this woman is determined to walk everywhere, she still wants to do it in some degree of style as well as complete comfort!
This blog is one of my favorites – your writing is very witty and thoughtful. Not to mention, your makeup commentary is always on point. Keep being cattastic!
I’ve been wanting to try contouring properly for months but I just can’t seem to find the right products! Hopefully if I win this, I’ll be able to pick up something in Sephora that’s just right!
I have been wanting to do the same! I have no idea what to buy!
Right now no shoes are my favorites, I got a weird blister on the side of my heel which makes shoe wearing very dreadful right now 🙁 Gonna get some blister plaster!
I love all the holiday sets that are out right now! It’s my favorite time of year for makeup.
I have lots of makeup fears. Finding a good nude lip look. Wearing foundation with more than light coverage. Liquid eyeliner.
.. I’m working on them.
I’ve got my eye on quite a few holiday gift sets!
My favorite shoes right now are these blue Steve Madden combat boots my boyfriend got me last year for Christmas!
My fave shoes is the gold flat shoes from Michael Kors 🙂
My favorite shoes are black ankle boots!
I am TRYING to control myself with the VIB sale, but it is SO hard:)
I like to think I’m a healthy mixture of both seductive and sweet!
I’ve been wanting to wear eyeshadow lately but I’m still new to makeup
I’m definitely sweet. Not so good at sinister or seductive. 😛
Favorite shoes are my gray suede boots. They have a high-ish heel but are super comfortable. I’ll cry when they wear out, I just know I will.
I’d love if MAC Soft&Gentle was smaller – and cheaper….
My current favorites are some sandals I bought with bottoms made of yoga mats! They’re like wearing slippers everywhere.
I am afraid to try a really colorful eye look.
I’m afraid to try any hair style basically. I have very finicky curly hair – I haven’t had a haircut in probably eight years because every hair stylist has messed it up really badly. :/ I need to get a trim because I have crazy split ends, but I’m scared…
My favorite shoes are probably still my vegan Litas (Jeffrey Campbell boots). I usually don’t spend that much on shoes, but they’re super cute, and surprisingly comfortable for such high platforms/heels. I always feel kick-ass when I wear them!
Any patent-leather flats are my jam right now.
A hairstyle I am too scared to try is shaving the side of my head, and leaving the rest of my hair long!
I’m lovin’ my new black suede walking shoes from LLBean.
One of my favorite pairs of shoes are my animal print Sperrys with hot pink laces.
current favourite shoes are these awesome black leather booties with gold accents, I picked them up on a whim a couple weeks ago and have gotten a surprising amount of use out of them already
I am sweet 🙂
MY favorite pair of shoes right now is my new pair of suede high heeled boots.
My favorite dish is butternut squash soup. This time of year is all about the pumpkin flavor! I’m so excited to find this blog and get all your makeup tips!
My favorite shoes right now are my Dolce Vita kid-sized brown ankle boots. So glad I can wear kids shoes because they’re so much cheaper and still look awesome!
I would love to go with a dramatic hair color, but I just remember when I dyed my hair a soft black and how the grow out process was! It was pretty humorous looking back!
I am excited that there are so many options for black lipstick. Not like back in the day when black eyeliner carefully slathered in lip balm was your only option. I fear I am too old to own, let alone wear, black lipstick. :/
I would love to one day straighten my natural hair! Since I have had heat damage before , I am bit afraid to do it. I have since colored my hair as well so maybe during the winter I’ll get brave enough to attempt it. I already purchase a blow dryer which I use to diffuse my hair from time to time. 2015 here I come with some straight hair lol hopefully anyway!!!
I would love to try darker hair, but I’m afraid it’ll be hard to go back to blonde. I might go for a darker blond look next time though, or maybe strawberry! What do you think Karen? 🙂
I’m too sweet at heart to be sinister
My current favorite shoes are a pair of black booties I got on clearance at DSW for $5.
I am really loving my studded Michael Kors (Astor) flats right now
My current favorite shoes are whatever allow my feet to breathe! Apparently Southern Caliornia has not got the memo about fall and it has been 80+ here! I just want to wear boots!
I ordered twice from the VIB sale so far 😉
I have been to afraid to try the pixie hair cut, although, it is cute.
i’m sweet 🙂
Happy Caturday!!! =)
boots are my go to right now!
I always order filet mignon, foie gras, and glass of wine at a nice restaurant. I love French food, and a juicy steak is a must. Escargot is also awesome!
My favorite shoes are now, and always have been, flip flops. I’ve tried to cut ties with them, but I just can’t seem to give them up.
Thank you for reviewing a lot of the holiday sets this year! It makes my choices easier 🙂
I love going out for breakfast and ordering french toast. There’s a local restaurant here who makes their own ciabatta bread and then uses it for the french toast. Omg Karen, it tastes so good with just some butter and the tiniest bit of powdered sugar, it never gets old to me!
My favorite dish to order at a Restaurant is any type of Chinese-especially Almond Chicken!
I’m sweet 😉
Happy Caturday!!! No real weekend plans. I picked up a lot of stuff from the vib sale so I’m staying in and not spending anything else this weekend. Haha
My current favorite pair of shoes are these cheetah print oxfords I got for Christmas almost two years ago now. They’re super comfortable and the print is neutral enough that I can pair them with almost anything!
I’d say I’m more seductive than sinister or sweet. Also, it would depend on the reason for why my friends would dislike a boyfriend.
I haven’t heard of the movie Birdman (had to quick google it) – thanks for the recap! I cannot wait until Mockingjay comes out!!
Wish I had the guts to try some of the neon lipsticks that are hot right now. Baby steps…
I love kitties so much and i love that you feature Tabs quite often, it makes me happy!!!
Currently my favorite shoes are my Born wedges…so comfy
This giveaway ends on my birthday, it would be a nice treat to win!
My favourite dish to order is pizza. I especially love it if it’s a thin crust with pesto.
My favorite shoes right now are a comfy pair of patent nude flats from Pay Less. I’ve been meaning to go and buy a back up pair because I wear them so often!
Favorite shoes right now : UGGs
A hairstyle that I have been afraid to try is the pixie cut. I really want to but it takes so long to grow my hair out again to shoulder length.
My fave shoes are my knee high boots
Did you watch Interstellar? I really want to watch it. Hope hubby and I can go for it next week. Have a good weekend 🙂
A product i would love much more if it were smaller? The limitem edition tarte away oui go set. It’s just really bulky. Also the too faced chocolate bar palette, I know they recently made them smaller but I unluckily bought mine before they remade it.
I LOVE your blog! Every day you show me something new to fall in love with. So many new products and the way you show them to us and your reviews are great!Thank you!
I wish I was daring enough to do really bold, vibrant eye makeup.
My favorite dish to order in a restaurant is Chicken Alfredo.
Sweet, for sure! <3 It's all about the unicorns, sugar, and sparkles. However, seductive and sinister come out to play occasionally, but as a darker layer over the brightness, like stockings… or fishnets 😉
I can only think of one thing that would be better if it were smaller… the new Nails Inc. bottles! They are giants! I've never hefted a heavier nail polish bottle in meh life. But other than various awkwardly large packaging conundrums… nope. When it comes to products, I'm thinking the more the merrier 😀
What’s your favorite dish to order at a restaurant?
— Currently, I’m loving the Beef Fajita Omlette from this little taqueria down the street 🙂 It’s by far my favorite breakfast meal!
What are your current favorite shoes?
— I wear my flats the most often (for work), but if I could I would wear my plain Jane black Converse everyday!
Are you more sinister, seductive or sweet?
— I’m definitely a sweet person! However, I do have the ability to be sinister and seductive when the occasion calls for it.
A makeup look or hair style you’ve been too afraid to try?
— I don’t really have any :/ I’ve already cut my hair super short, and I wore my first red lipstick look the other day! Maybe a purple lip? Like a pure violet lip look.
A product you would love much more if it were smaller?
— Umm… I’m from Texas, and you know how the saying goes. “Bigger is better!” I think my laptop is the only thing I wish was smaller. It’s an older MacBook Pro so it’s super thick and bulky.
Does it bother you if your friends don’t like someone you’re dating?
— My friends don’t like my current boyfriend, but I stay with him. We have our ups and downs, and I do tend to only call people when things are bad :/
Thank you for doing the giveaway!
I had both very long and very short hair in my life, and i’ve always wanted (even now) to shave the side of my head when i have long hair, but i miss the courage XD
Lately I’ve loved ordering Chicken Tikka Masala.. Yummy Indian food always gets me. =) Oh and burgers.. Ugh.
My favorite dish to order at a restaurant is lomo saltado. it is a Peruvian dish, and i wish there were a peruvian restaurant in my area 🙁
This is such a super sweet surprise, thanks a bunch! Hmmm… I am wanting my new fav pair of shoes to be some Hunter Wellies! Lol I just need to get them first) Ha!
Heart the weather in our area today
My fave shoes right now, is sneakers, since i fall last year, the doctor told me not to wear high heels anymore. I don’t know how to rock nude lips without looking dead
My favorite shoes are slippers!!!!!
I like to order chicken enchiladas at my favorite Mexican restaurant. I am more Sweet,but partly sour 🙂
I’ll always order lobster mac and cheese if it’s on a menu! Bring on the carbs!
I’m french, and my favorite dish is “hachis parmentier” (a gratin with smashed potatoes and beef), sooo good !
I’m tempted to buy holiday makeup collections, but I am so broke.
Happy Saturday! Are you excited about all the holiday collections coming out? Is there any one collection you could recommend with someone on a limited budget?
I get sick of body wash after a while, wish some bottles weren’t like 2 year supplies.
My favorite shoes right now are nungent booties by mattise footwear! So cute!
I love chicken parmesan
I love your blog and I love the Tab stories!! I am a cat lady myself and have 2 cats that are the rulers in my house.
Hi Karen
alllot of products I wish they were smaller, my bag is sometimes so heavy that I think that if I hit somebody with my bag he/she wil feel unconscious or just be knock out.
for example blushes are too bulky
my face powder then again too bulky and heavy
my eyeglasses case I get it your glasses need to be secure but this one is ridiculous.
I love any deluxe sample sized product – I like to try a lot of things and I rarely finish an entire lipstick/mascara etc. Holiday sets are the best for this! Everything is just the perfect amount – and great for travelling too!
current favourite shoes are my ankle booties from F21!
I could definitely use this!
I’d love to try rollers but I have so much hair I’m afraid I’d just end up with it tangled all over the place!
My fave shoes are a pair of moto boots that are teetering on the edge of needing to be thrown out but I can’t let go just yet.
My favorite appetizer to order at a restaurant when available is tartar. SO GOOD!! 🙂
I just bought a new pair of suede tan ankle books – on clearance, in the girls’ section of Marshalls – and they are my fave shoes in the whole wide world
I want to try purple hair.
I am sinister. Muahaha
i would have to say im pretty sweet
My fav thing to order lately is the cheese fries from Outback Steak House with ranch dressing. Delish!!!!
Made fettuccine for lunch! Yummy! The Hubby Has A Cold So At Home With My DAUGHTER Just chillin on a beautiful Saturday! A make-up and hair day free day! Still in my pajamas! Love days like these. Should clean and be productive but just plain lazy. Enjoy your Saturday with tabs!
Favorite pair of shoes currently my ankle boots from last year’s collection at Geox. They’re brown leather, with a very slight wedge and side zips. Completely waterproof and skip-proof! Great with absolutely everything and you can totally wear them in winter and be nice and cozy 🙂
The makeup look that I’m so intimidated by is winged eyeliner! I have very hooded eyes so its very dificult to accomplish :/
I like ordering pasta or fish at restaurants.
My fave pair of shoes nowadays are my tweed print ballet flats by Hushpuppies. So cute and so comfy!
Am I the only one who said “Kaw kaw” while reading the blog post? LOL As much as I love makeup and smokey eye, I’m too afraid to wear outside the classic black smokey eye. I feel like I look like a panda. lol.
My favorite dish to order at a restaurant is fettuccine alfredo mixed with marinara sauce.
My current favorite shoe brand is FitFlop. I’ve had multiple shoe injuries and since I’ve started wearing these I really can’t wear any others! Have my eye on another pair of boots from them . . .
I really wish I was a bit younger to rock a purple hair.
My current favorite shoes are the 3 fringe layer Minnetonka boots! They are perfect for fall, of course I am late buying them because they’ve been out for a while now… But it’s never too late to wear fabulous shoes! 😉
Favorite restaurant dish…strawberry shortcake from Cheesecake Factory! And yesss….2 more weeks til Mockingjay!
I’m afraid to try the smokey eye. I can’t make it look smokey, it looks more like a raccoon!
My home currently smells like bacon.
My favorite shoes right now are a pair of gold flats I got from target.
I am afraid to do a black and grey smokey eye. It looks like it would just look like a bruise or a mess if I tried.
Ohhh, don’t have a favorite at restaurants…but I enjoy a good filet mignon, or manicotti, or clam chowder! And for dessert: cheesecake or guava cake.
What’s your favorite dish to order at a restaurant?
If they have it, I’ll almost always order Ahi Tuna. Yum!
What are your current favorite shoes?
These Jessica Simpson ballet flats with the ankle straps (like you’ve tied ballet slippers!) they’re soooo comfy!
Are you more sinister, seductive or sweet?
Sweet. To a fault, I think haha!
A makeup look or hair style you’ve been too afraid to try?
Dying my hair blonde. I’ve been on the verge for so long, one day I might just have to do it!
A product you would love much more if it were smaller?
The Tom Ford cream eyeshadows (I’ll never ever finish that!)
Does it bother you if your friends don’t like someone you’re dating?
Not really… It’s happened before with my current boyfriend but if I love him who cares haha 🙂
I’m loving colored moccasins and tall boots!
I love to order pasta dishes when I eat out!
I’ve been so afraid to do hairstyles in general!
But since I’ve moved to a city that’s usually either windy or rainy I usually can’t wear my vintage curls and I despise having straight hair so I’ve been trying out a lot of things: vintage rolls, crown braids, beehives, fake betty bang – and it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought!!!
My current favorite shoes- Acne Pistol boots.
Are you more sinister, seductive or sweet?
I’d have to say that my personality is more along the sweet side, but there is a little seduction in there when the situation presents itself.
My current favorite dish is mushroom and parmesan risotto. So delicious!
But in restaurants, I usually order beef filet mignon, since I never cook this dish at home.
I’m probably gonna go to Interstellar next week. If I like it, I’ll let you know. 😉
As it approaches winter, and the weather has cooled off big time here, my current favorite shoes are my fuzzy slippers!
coriwestphal at msn dot com
Just saw some movies – Nightcrawler was great. I thought that Jake Gyllenhaal did awesome at becoming the character!
I’d have to say that I could live in my running shoes. I feel like I’m always out running. I should probably just bite the bullet and sign up for a race, I’ve never done one before.
My favorite thing to order in a restaurant is any vegetarian dish I can find on the menu!
My children are adults and I’ve been happily married for over 30 years.
Does wanting to dye my hair a weird color count? I would really like to do something really different with my hair like blue or teal but I don’t dye my hair at all and I’m actually pretty fond of my natural color. I did try hair chalk and it was kind of cool but they’re too messy!
Just over a week until we fly to NYC and I can hit Sephora!
I’ve been afraid to try a cat eye and contouring. I’m fine with makeup basics, but anything ‘fancy’ I’m not really good at.
I’m more sweet.
I’m considering getting a mohawk haircut, but it seems like a lot of work. Plus, I worry it might not look good on me, think DeNiro in Taxi Driver…
Steak, as I am not very adept at cooking it perfectly at home
I’d love to try smokey eyes, but I’m too afraid! 🙂
If only they could make mini Its Its ice cream, my tween treat!
I loved Birdman! Edward Norton is one of my favorites, he was great!
My fav thing to order at a restaurant is always something I can’t make easily at home!
I know it’s probably a bit silly, but I’m still terrified of doing a smoky eye of any kind. I’ve tried multiple times, but I ended up looking like I got punched in the eye at karate instead of sultry and sexy, so I just scrubbed it off and went back to my “signature” kitten eye with black liner.
But I wanna actually learn to do it so bad, because all the looks are fun and I LOVE the idea of a shimmery one for Christmas. I just haven’t found a way to keep from looking like I failed at kumite.
I love the farro salad from the cheesecake factory!!
I like Jeffrey Campbell and UNIF shoes.
i love unicorns
I’ve been dying to try a fishtail braid and my hair is getting close to long enough finally!
Favorite shoes right now are my comfy winter boots!
I really need a hair and makeup change, I’m stuck in a rut! But I am completely lost on where to start!
I just bought the Benefit Box O’ Blushes and holy crap it is awesome! I’m so happy I managed to find one!
A makeup trend I’ve been afraid to try…black lips…I just don’t know… Something I love that you might be surprised about – Mary Kay’s eye shadow primer – favorite lipstick now is MAC Lustering 🙂
My current favorite dish to order at restaurants vary. If it is an Indian restaurant then I love to order Sholay Bhature or keep it simple with anything chicken lol. An italian then it has to be lemon chicken with roasted potatoes. If american then burger and fries. I could go on and on but I’m going to keep it short lol.

thank you so much for doing this!
One thing I’ve always wanted to try but have always been scared to is dying my hair platinum! I really want to. But that’s a big step.
I really really really want to try a bright eye-look one day (true neon colors if I can) – but I’m waay to afraid of looking overdone, especially as I haven’t mastered other face make up quite yet. >.> Don’t want to look like a clown.
Maybe what I need is to bite the bullet and buy the electric palette (though it’d be a crazy expensive experiment if doesn’t turn out well. xD
My favorite shoes right now are a pair of Jelly Pop flats.
Love this blog! I could really usb this forum the vib sephora sale.

I love my brown leather studded boots for fall. Comfy, easy to put on, look great with jeans and flannel…
Like one other reader, I’m afraid to try bright colors. The farthest I’ve gotten is like a baby pink, lol.

Enjoying a beautiful Sunday morning!
My favorite shoes right now are dark brown, zip up combat boots. Bringing it back to the 90s, when I was too little too rock the combat boot trend.
A makeup look I’ve been afraid to try is a cut crease because I don’t find it easy at all. I’ve tried every method when practicing and I always mess up that’s why I haven’t worn it yet.
I love any dish with noodles and spicy. Mmm, getting hungry now. I’d love to see The Hunger Games too, especially in original language. Here it’s most likely dubbed in German and the title is changed to Die Tribute von Panem. Enjoy the movie!
I’m currently obsessing over finding a new pair of black boots for fall and I’m having no luck.
How do Y’all feel about seeing Christmas stuff all over & in the stores already when we haven’t even celebrated Thanksgiving yet? I feel like it gets pushed at us earlier & earlier every year? Thoughts?
Hello, Karen and Tab$!
sunday funday, over here. 🙂 gona hit up sephora with my sisNlaw to hitch on to her VIB coupon. ahhah. I’m not VIB, but my wallet thanks me for that.
I am still scared to try eyeliner. i’ll play with it, and practice, but i’m still intimidated. i will keep at it! lipstick still intimidates me, also. i’m picking up the stila lipstick/stain thingee today. i’ve read great reviews, so hopefully it helps ease me into the lipstick world.
hope the weekend is treating you well!!!
I bought myself a pair of black Louboutins for my 25th birthday. They were my first designer anything. They are my favorite shoes for sentimental reasons.
My fav food to order is shrimp.
If you ever get a chance, you should try the Geisha Ink eyeliner! It’s felt tip, non smudging, and life changing
My favorite shoes are new black leather ankle boots I bought, Have not worn them yet but just like to open the box and look at them. I know I’m a weirdo!
When i eat Thai, i always get curry especially pumpkin curry or green curry.

I am loving all the holiday sets at Sephora, I really want to buy the Nars blush palette and try some Marc Jacobs beauty. Thanks for the giveaway.
I tend to order anything and everything spicy!
I’m glad for the cooler weather here in Illinois so I can enjoy the things I’ve knitted, but dang it I’m having trouble adjusting!
I think I am ALL 3! Sinister,seductive and sweet. But before I get more into that. Ask yourself this….Aren’t we all a bit of all 3? Let me explain, we all have that sinister in us all. Their those times that we are a bit evil. Like the time your boyfriend angers u tobthe point of no rerurn and you decide for a little payback. What better way than to wash his clothes and accidentally pour some bleach on his favorite shirt. Hehe…not that I’ve done it but I’ve thought of it. That is till sinister of me for thinking it. Don’t you think? On to the next. You must have that seductive side of you. Either if you are in a relationship or not. You need to have that certain sexy side if you. You either are seductive for your man or for your own confidence. Remember!… Who runs the world? Girls!! Now for sweet. I know for sure I am by far one of the sweetest persons. Yes it may sound a bit narcissist,but I’ve done a lot of goods deeds in my life. Sweet means for me: Kind, thoughtful, cute, helping hand etc… i can go on. I think I fit in all of the criteria. This is why I think I am a fit for all.
Going to see Amon Amarth tonight. So excited!!
My favorite shoes of the moment are my old skool New Balance sneakers
My favorite dishes at restaurants are all over the place, but one i order often is Chicken Marsala.
Currently my favorite shoes at the moment are my bright coral Hunter rain boots!! I love them!! They’re soo comfy!! Rain or shine I want to wear them all the time! I now don’t care if it rains anymore, because I have something fun and bright to wear on those dreary days!
when I go out to eat I love any italian food w/ extra marina sauce!!@@
My current favorite shoes are my pointy toe gray booties from Gap-they look great with skinny and straight jeans and the neutral gray color goes with everything!
I can’t believe the weekend is almost over!
Trying to find some new comfy flats! My feet are wide, so every darn pair of flats ends up pinching the life out of my toes. 🙁
I am afraid to try (again) the pixie cut. I know I can’t pull off short haircuts because I have really thick hair that stick out in all directions, but I think a pixie would be flattering for my small chin.
I’m afraid of orange lipsticks lol. I other colors ranging from bright pink to black but when it comes to orange I think it will look weird on me
I just got the Kat von D Mini Lipstick Set and I’m in love with Countess!
I ordered some moccasin boots last week and I can’t wait to get them. So cute!!
i am addicted to club sandwiches 😉
My favorite shoes are flip flops!
I am breaking out and need makeup STAT. Help me help myself.
Currently binge watching Criminal Minds. A trip to Sephora would lure me away tho
My current favorite shoes are these black suede boots from Nine West. They are ankle height and are pretty simple, just with a little buckle and are slouchy. I bought them on zappos several years ago in two colors and I adore them!
Right now, my favorite shoes are a pair of black Easy Spirit flats. They are comfy and dressy enough for work.
I’ve given up on heels and wear ballet flats everywhere.
A hairstyle I would love to try is the half shaven parted hair like how Demi Lovato had her hair. I love outrageous hairstyles! I have in the past dyed my hair multiple times with different colors or cutting my hair a certain way. I’m not afraid to try new styles so that be pretty risqué for me to rock that look
I’d love one day to try out more ‘unusual’ coloured hair. I can’t be too outrageous because of my job, but dark blue highlights, maybe? Or dark purple….
I would love to have short hair (like a pixie cut or similar) but I’m too afraid to make that jump!
Had to break out the gloves this week, getting cold in the Toronto area.
My fav pair of shoes right now is a pair of pewter Ralph Lauren boots. Love them so much
This website is my happy place! Love your always upbeat attitude, on-point makeup commentary and, of course, those kitties. 🙂
I’m afraid to go blonde or silver! I have dark brown hair and would love to go light, but the maintenance/upkeep would kill me!
I would love to try the goth lips but I am afraid I would look too crazy
My current favorite shoes are my Tom’s.
Terrified of liquid liner. Would love to create cat eyes but my hand is way too shaky. Might be the caffeine…
i am obsessed with dogs
My favorite shoes are Steve Madden heels!
My favorite shoes are my Toms. They are so comfortable and I can walk in them all day long.
I cannot wait for my Sephora purchases to arrive!
Makeup fear: winged liquid liner+ false eyelashes
A makeup look or hair style you’ve been too afraid to try?
Ombre hair! And ironically, I’m afraid to try an ombre lip as well. I think edgy style just isn’t my thing, but maybe for the new year I’ll try one – or maybe both! 😉
One of my favorite lipsticks this month is definitely the new Kat Von D studded lipstick in “Lolita” It is such a beautiful color. I am definitely going to invest in more. 🙂
My makeup look that I am afraid to try are any deep colored blushes. I usually stick to light pinks and neutral shades.
My favorite thing to order in a restaurant is filet mignon. Love me a good steak!
My favorite shoes are boots, these wonderful vintage (old!) Doc Martens with pink roses all over them. I love those silly things, wear them with just about anything, and they are so comfy! I can’t imagine finding another pair of shoes that I love as much as those boots.
I’m still wearing my sandals but my lined Frye boots are on standby for the snow coming.
I’m definitely a sweet girl. Though I really should try a mix of sinister and seductive. LOL!
Favourite shoes right now? My slippers!!
Current favourite shoes? none, I work mostly on my feet and once they come off, they’re off for the day
I’m afraid to try a really short haircut above my shoulders but i think it’s soo cute on others. Not sure if it’ll work on my round face. lol. Also I’m afraid to do smokey eyes on my monolid eyes, it’s so hard to do eye makeup on them. Ahhh! :p
I love peanut butter and cucumber sandwiches
I went shopping this weekend and bought some pretty makeups!
Hi! I caught Michael Keaton on Letterman talking about the movie and it looked interesting. Different at least. If not for anything else, for the unique way it was filmed. I have many different favorite things to order at restaurants. lol It depends on the restaurant. A good steak and shrimp is always super tasty!! Thank-you!
I like to order salmon
I would kill for long hair! But at a certain point my hair stops growing in length and just starts growing in width. not a good look.
I love to order steak and a baked potato when I go to a restaurant.
I would like to try purple or blue streaks in my hair, but feel kind of too old for that (36). I wouldn’t want to look like someone trying to look like a teenager.
I love my Vince Camuto blue wedges!
My favorite shoes lately are not stylish so to speak, they are extremely comfortable. They are called cloud walkers and mercy me I love how my feet feel in these things. No more painful back when I get off work.
I’ve been hooked on thai food lately- it’s so amazing!
My comfy comfy Merrel vapor gloves:)
Please don’t make me choose just one restaurant dish, it’s like choosing my favorite cat! I can’t do it.
I am definitely looking at some of the holiday sets! Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m afraid to wear bolder lip colors more often!
What are your current favorite shoes? – My Sorel Campus Tall boots in the color Elk Felt! I wanted something more interesting than Uggs (but equally cozy) this winter, and I looooove these.
Are you more sinister, seductive or sweet? – I like to think seductive, lol.
Does it bother you if your friends don’t like someone you’re dating? – I’ve never run into this problem, which makes me think yes, it would bother me. I’m not saying it would be a deal breaker, but I definitely care about the opinions of those who know me best and can give me well-meaning 3rd-party feedback. I’m always receptive to that and can tell whether or not someone has my best interests at heart.
My favorite to go out to eat is lobster. I love lobster. I hope you are having a good day. Thanks so much for this opportunity.
I’ve seen these super sexy stripy black sandals that I so desperately want to get 😀
one can never have too many black sandals- right!
Current favorite shoes since I got them are these black strappy Ecco wedges. The most comfortable and durable pair I’ve ever had, totally worth the investment! (And not your mama’s Eccos, they’re so cute!)
I really enjoy your blog. You have a great, unique writing style. I have yet to read an article that I didn’t enjoy!
Favorite shoes right now: Jellypop moccasin flats. I own tan and black. So comfy!
I really want to wear cat eye eyeliner but I can never get them symmetrical. I practice before removing my makeup at night but I just can’t get it 🙁
I love ordering Thai curries.
My favorite dish is stuffed shells!
It sounds childish, but my favorite thing to get at a restaurant is chicken fingers! I think you can tell a lot about a place based on how their chicken fingers are 😉
I’m gonna make this comment a unique one than the usual I post hoping to win that Sephora gift card 😀 I saw this and immediately wanted to share with Tabs, hoping Tabs will reward me for sending across such groundbreaking information about her evolutionary history 😀 Enjoy! http://news.sciencemag.org/biology/2014/11/genes-turned-wildcats-kitty-cats
Hugs,

Definitely sweet!
i love sephora’s holiday gift sets!
Fav shoes? Dansko or Clarks .. definitely tennis shoes (Saucony!).
Monica.
When dining out, I prefer to order something that I do not ordinarily make at home. Something unusual, or time consuming to make. I just feel guilty if I get something I could have easily made myself, for far less $ than eating out. It seems justified if the meal is unique, difficult to make, or involves spices I do not usually keep in the pantry.
Kickin Artichoke Dip!
•What’s your favorite dish to order at a restaurant? – Typically it has been pasta, but now I like to try new recipes with fun ingredients. I’m rarely disappointed. Yesterday I had seared brocollini with French fries in dill sauce! Oh so good!
•What are your current favorite shoes? My super colorful Asic’s Gel Noosa Tri-9’s 😀
•Are you more sinister, seductive or sweet? I guess I’d have to say more sinister than either of the other two! 😮
•A makeup look or hair style you’ve been too afraid to try? Wow .. is it bad that there is so little I’m afraid of when it comes to hair and makeup?? LOL. I try it all! But I think the only thing I’m weary of is red lips. I just don’t know if I could pull them off, and have never tried.
•A product you would love much more if it were smaller? Hmmm … my contouring and blush brushes! Those are always too big IMO!
•Does it bother you if your friends don’t like someone you’re dating? Probably would … but I’m married. And all my friends like my hubbie, so we’re good. He’s a super lovely man though, how could they not. 😀
My favorite shoes are my Dansko clogs – I’m on my feet all day and they’re the best thing I’ve found!
What are your current favorite shoes?
My Seychelles Scoundrel Booties 😀
I Love my Michael Todd Carrot Serum, but I wish the package wasn’t so big & bulky.
My favorite shoes are my Sam Edelman rose gold sparkly flats. They are not in the best shape – I’ve actually worn them until they’ve cracked at the heel area. But I will continue to wear them until they are in shreds 🙂
Just went and grabbed some becca liquid highlighters! So far I am loving them. Thanks for the review Karen 🙂
I love my new combat shoes.
It would bother me if my friend’s didn’t like someone I was dating. It’s happened in the past, I didn’t listen to them, and sure enough they were right! He wasn’t the one. Thankfully they all love the one I’m with now 🙂
My fav meal to order is chicken pad thai.
i love HONEY WALNUT SHRIMP from PandaInn, it’s so delicious!! And my all time favorite shoes are Nike Roshe Runs. I think you would like them too!!
I had too much fun at the Sephora sale LOL
I’d love to try a pixiecut. I’m not afraid of the cut itself but the awkward grow out phase if I don’t like it.
A product you would love much more if it were smaller?
Well it used to be the becca SSP liquid highlighter, but I see now that they have small sizes which is a million times better, because you need so little and it will end up just getting thrown out.
I love sephora!!!
Fav shoes of the moment are my long black over the knee bomber uggs! So comfy and warm
I’m definitely the sweet one! 🙂
Lately I’ve been obsessed with lush! I mean I always have been but my obsession has been revived because of my trip to their Santa Monica location for some birthday shopping. I’m still kind of on the fence with the Mask of Magnaminty SP formula! I can’t wait to try and pick some things up at their Boxing Day sale next month!
I have always been afraid to try a pixie cut, but I would love to be able to wash my hair and go.
My favorite dish, is a desert from applebees!! salted,caramel pretzel bites with blondie dipping sauce.. Sooooo yummy:)
Hello,
I just would like to give a heads-up to a wonderful lipstick Sephora used to make,and I am hoping they still do. It was/is a lovely wine colored(several colors are made)matte finish(also came in a regular finish) that has great ‘staying’power. Winning this would enable me to get back to Sephora and hopefully find that they are still in production!Staying power is the 1st thing I look for;and this Sephora brand definitely had/has staying power!
