So Thankful!

Halloween this year was quite difficult as I was rather sick! In this photo I was going for Dita's femme fatale look when she parts her hair down the middle, always so fab! My sister and her boyfriend also looked fab at dinner! We all decided to go to Pechanga for dinner, but did not see many people dressed up.

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving I had just finished watching LisaFreemontStreet's hair tutorial on one of Lolita Haze's updos, and so I thought I would give it a try. It did not come out the same, but I think it has a similar look. Everyone (including my picky parents) loved it! I used perm rods on the top layers and some pillow rollers on the bottom and back.

Here is a pic of my vintage inspired manicure I gave myself before I headed off to my Grandmother's. It's by Revlon and has a warm red with gold shimmer in it that can take a reddish-brown huh with warmer clothes or a plum-gold with cooler tones. Quite versatile!

As the evening came to a close at Lauren's parents house, his mom decided I needed a clay facial! Sadly, I soon discovered I forgot to get a pic of me and Lauren on Thanksgiving, oops :(

I really want to find a fab 40s dress in my size and some colorful (hopefully leather) gloves this winter season, what are you looking for?

7 Year Anniversary

Me and Lauren (my bf) had our 7 year anniversary together back at the end of March. For some reason the beginning of the day escapes me, but the later part of the day ended with dinner at Apple Bee's (mmm mashed potatoes), and then home to enjoy the movie we seen on that same day 7 years earlier: Dreamcatcher (novel by King).

We watch it every year (even if I fall asleep at the end). I remember being on the IM with him, and I told him that I was "Jonzing it see it." He asked if I wanted to go see it with him, but I was hesitant, but finally did...best decision made so far :)

In my pic, I wanted Lauren to get aq pic of my shoes, so when it came time for me to take his pic, he wanted to be sure his shoes were in the pic; hence, the shoe dislay by him!
