Motherhood is hard, makeup doesn't have to be.
I simplify makeup for busy moms.

Confessions: Friday Edition

*Thanks girls for all the makeup tips! I haven’t been out to get anything new yet, but will keep you posted. *1. I ate one lord knows how many handfuls of m&m’s this week. See evidence. #weightwatchersdropout 2. I found this in my desk while cleaning it out. No it is not mine, and I am not sure where it came from. My company does represent a gay travel association… so I’m bettin this was distributed in registration bags at one of their conferences. Still-this serves no purpose at the office.
3. I put extensions on my babies’. Yes. It was hysterical. Gotta teach ‘em young. Oh to be that blonde naturally… 4. I dressed as a cow in order to get free chic-fil-a. I am not above it. Comments my co-workers and I heard while entering the chicken establishment include:
“Oh… is this for adults too?”
“Move cows.” (from a 5 yr. old)
“My, what a nice herd you work with…”
5. I am mildly obsessed with my friend Britanny’s hair. I am doing it for her wedding next weekend and we did another practice run this week and might I just say that I think she looks just like a little Carrie.
6. While moving desks this morning, I got called out by IT for having a straightener plugged in under my desk, sitting atop my computer. They were less than thrilled with this fire hazard.7. It is raining, and that makes me not want to do anything tonight. Is that wrong? I would love a nap… but my social calendar says otherwise. Gloomy…yuck.
8. I had a nightmare last night that I was pregnant with a little baby guido with abs like the situation. He was born with gel in his hair and wrapped in an affliction blanket. So weird.9. I am the worst RSVPer in the world. I KNOW how bad this is. People need to know if you are coming to things. Especially things they are paying for! I just forget… that karma is gonna bite me one day I just know it.10. I obsessively polish my nails. In all seriousness like 3 times a week at least. I can’t stand it chipping. We are currently sporting strawberry margarita, but I am gonna go back to my signature bubble bath this weekend. Loves it. Nothing like a fresh mani and pedi to make you feel fresh.
Have a great weekend lovelies!
  1. goodness, she does have gorgeous hair!

  2. Stephanie says:

    Ok…
    1. Love the cow costumes…esp the spots. So cute!
    2. LOVE your friends hair and the way you styled it. That's exactly how I hope to do mine so now I have inspiration!!!
    And 3. strawberry Margarita is the only color I ever paint my nails!!

    Great minds think alike…just sayin'…xoxo

  3. Laura says:

    hahahaahaha… i'm dying laughing at some of these.. I have to admit- i have probably eaten a whole large bag of MnM's this week… my mom had them for the 4th.. but I finished them 🙂 oops. and what a cute little cow you are
    xoxo

  4. Your friend has awesome hair. I'm also more than a little chuckling that IT was miffed at your technological "addition" to your desk.

  5. Your friend does have very Carrie hair! I'm dying laughing about your dream right now…that's hilarious! Have a wonderful weekend 🙂

  6. You did such a great job on you friends hair! She is going be a gorgeous bride!! Haha, and I would definitely dress up as a cow for free chick-fil-a… its so yummy!! Its rainy out here too and it just makes me want snuggle up and sleep all night…boo!

    Hope you have a great weekend!!

  7. AbbyS. says:

    Laughing at the surprise in your desk! ha!
    I think I spot a cow I know! Could one of the herd be Miss Erin??

  8. Whitney says:

    I wish I could style my hair like that and it turn out like that. I might have to experiment this weekend. When did they give away free Chic-fil-a? I totally would have done it. I love Chic-fil-a!

  9. Emily says:

    ok! I love this blog. but you must must must do some hair tips posts!!!
    your friends hair looks amazing, and your extensions look amazing on that darling little diva!!

    we need hair tips from you missy!!

  10. Dree says:

    That was one crazy dream! I'd freak out too, lol! Your friend's hair is so pretty, and that cutie pie is so precious! I'm an obsessive nail polish-er too, so I completely understand what you mean.

    I also added a Contact me part to my blog, since you mentioned that you couldn't find an email address. I never thought of that, thank you!

    Have a great weekend!

  11. Jennie says:

    HAHA! Love her hair!

  12. Sophie P says:

    I pay WAYYY too much money to try and get my hair like that gorgeous blonde! Thank you for the fab pics, have a great week xx

  13. leigh ashley says:

    bahaha!! you make me laugh so mcuh!! i wish i could have you put extensions in MY hair!! why are you not a beautician??

  14. Cassie says:

    Your friends' hair is gorgeous! I love what you did with it!

    I have to admit that I'm super jealous of your desk. It's all decorated and cute 🙂

  15. Ryan Kay says:

    You friend and your babies hair looks great 🙂

  16. You are my favorite new blog that I have found. Bride to be is def looking like Carrie, you did a fantastic job. And on the nail polish recoloring? Me too, it's bad how often I paint and repaint. Particularly during TV shows where I'll have a lot of free time ie bachelorette.
