A jumble of good things today: focused, cheerful and playful!
Oh, there are so many to choose from! MAC Soft Brown will always be my baby. Lately, I’ve also been lovin’ on MAC Patina and Urban Decay Smog from the Ammo Palette.
Totally. I have a few great guy friends who are like the older brothers I always wished for but never had — NBLACK, Mark S. and Marc K.
I just finished the third Sookie Stackhouse book and can’t wait to read the fourth.
Nothing yet, but I’m thinking it might be a Bobbi Brown Ivy League kinda day.
I have to admit I’m asking this question because I need to buy a new pair, LOL! I used to love my Joe’s, but now they fit funky…
Watching Julie & Julia on Friday. LOVE Meryl Streep!
High school was a time in my life when I felt steady and safe, so it’s definitely tempting. I would miss the freedoms that come with being an adult, though, so probably not.
Pink and black plaid Dickies pants and a black t-shirt.
Schedule a lunch with friends, start researching flooring materials (fake wood versus carpet?), set aside time to relax and try a new recipe from the August issue of Real Simple.
Right now I’m sitting at my desk, drinking tea and going over my to-do list for the day. Tabs is on my lap and purring like crazy!

curled my lashes and applied mascara. urban decay lip color, and tarte cheek stain. pretty basic.

6. Who makes *the best* jeans?
I honestly think jeans are one of those items where there is no one “best†– it depends very much on your body type. I’m thin and tall and all my height is in my legs, so 7 for all Mankind and Rock and Republic are my faves because they have long inseams.
7. What are you most looking forward to this week?
Receiving some makeup in the mail (I have Lancome and Chantecaille fall stuff heading my way).
7. Would you re-live your high school years?
Hellz no. . . they weren’t awful, but I was tall, gangly, a shy nerd, and those were awkward times for me. I’m much more stylish, settled, and happy now – I feel like I’ve “grown into myself†if that makes sense.

A white skirt suit with a royal-blue silk sleeveless shell.

it holds germs and allergens and tabs will also possibly scratch it. not to mention that cleaning it will be hard… wood is just cleaner. you can always buy some fun area rugs!
.-= ines, felix and kitten (the office kitties)’s last blog post… Building a Makeup Collection =-.
Hi Ines,
I’d much rather get wood for the entire place — it can be so expensive, though! Hopefully I can find something that’s affordable and looks nice.

2. Three of your favorite eyeshadow crease colors: Don’t have any…I’m still getting into eyeshadows, with the help of UDPP Sin. Oily lids problem.

6. Who makes *the best* jeans? I really love my Lucky Brand jeans

10. Weekly goals: Get this semester straightened out
Hi Laura F.,
Sorry to hear about your boyfriend moving away. It’ll be a big change, but hopefully with all the ways to stay in touch you guys will be able to get through it.
BTW, A Great and Terrible Beauty is a good read. I really enjoyed it.
Le list
1. Mood:
Tired and crabby. I’m stuck with the very last of my migraine. At least I’m not throwing up anymore. I’m exhausted.
2. Three of your favorite eyeshadow crease colors:
The dark brown color in the “Shady” HiP duo and that’s about it. I don’t do a crease color a lot of the time. Just one even stroke of color because I like keeping things simple.
3. Can men and women be platonic friends?
Yes.
4. The next book you’d like to read:
I need to pick up my holds. But, the next series in the House of Night comes out in September if I remember correctly! I need to pre-order it. I can’t fathom reading at the moment due to my head!
5. Eyes/lips/cheeks:
Nothing. I’ve been throwing up or sleeping so I’ve had no time to get dressed. I feel too miserable.
6. Who makes *the best* jeans?
I have the perfect pair of DKNY jeans I got at TK Maxx. I’ve worn them so much I have a big hole in the knees of my pants. I need to find a new DKNY jean in a size 0. I always feel good in those jeans.
7. What are you most looking forward to this week?
Getting rid of this headache. On August 6th, the Lovely Bones trailer comes out on iTunes! Must. See. Trailer.
8. Would you re-live your high school years?
No.
9. Outfit:
The loosest and silkiest pajamas I could find. Again, I’m miserable. Misery likes anything that feels like silk.
10. Weekly goals:
Get rid of headache. Buy the $423.53 cents of books that I need for my college courses. Get rid of headache. Watch Lovely Bones trailer. Get rid of headache. Watch Wild Russia (the ones I have on my DVR and the new ones on Thursday)
Okay, I think I’m going to either upstairs nap with Zena or TRY getting dressed. I’m completely exhausted. I don’t know if I can make it upstairs!
Le list
1. Mood: Tired, in pain, but inspired.
2. Three of your favorite eyeshadow crease colors: I’m going to be vague here and just say colors, not brands and specific shades. Tan (I’m really pale), taupe and bronze.
3. Can men and women be platonic friends? Yes, I believe so. Happens everyday of the week.
4. The next book you’d like to read: I want to get through my Sookie Stackhouse novels, but I’m too busy to fit everything in.
5. Eyes/lips/cheeks: Burt’s Bees Honey Lip Balm on my lippies.
6. Who makes *the best* jeans? I like brands that don’t need tailoring, ones that come in “short” sizes. I am 5’2 1/2″ and I’m on the “rail” side on the bottom. A lot of jeans are way too baggy on me. The last two brands I’ve tried are Express and Faded Glory. Faded Glory’s lowest size (4) is too big on me on the waist. The length fits, though. Express’ waist on my jeans fits, but it is sometimes pinchy when I sit down, ugh. I think they just aren’t cut for my body type. I think if Faded Glory made a 2 or 0.. I would be set.
7. What are you most looking forward to this week? Finding out where I placed for the month of July (on a writing website I participate on). Seeing what mail I get.
8. Would you re-live your high school years? NO! I doubt they would work out differently, unless I pretended to be someone I’m not.

1. Mood: Stressed, but upbeat.
2. Three of your favorite eyeshadow crease colors: Juxt – MAC, Like Mink – clinique, kitten – stila.
3. Can men and women be platonic friends? I don’t know. One of my only close guy friends is gay. But I guess men make good friends if they are not attracted to you in anyway.
4. The next book you’d like to read: I have no time to read, unfortunately.
5. Eyes/lips/cheeks: Au Natural right now. But I plan on doing my lips and cheeks with Posietint. <3
6. Who makes *the best* jeans? Citizens of Humanity!
7. What are you most looking forward to this week? Finishing my paper, working on my GMAT..what an exciting life I live.

10. Weekly goals: Finish my econ paper, study gmat, squeeze in some time for yoga and help celebrate my dad’s bd, and cheer up my bestfriend.

.-= Christina’s last blog post… The Tweets Of A Knee =-.
Oh, about the flooring, Karen… my dorm last year had this really neat laminate that looked like gorgeous wood flooring. It was glued to the concrete floor. I’m not sure how expensive it was, but because they put it into every room in my dorm, I’m guessing it can’t have been that expensive, and it was -GORGEOUS-. I’m not sure what it was called though.
1. Mood: Mostly good but a little frazzled. Mondays always are a bit like that haha.
