What to Place on My Order

Big solid conditioner, shine so bright hair balm (maybe) and sexy peel

Ahh can't wait to get these

Such a Lively Scarf

Passion

What is it?
Where does it come from?
Do you make it?
Where you born with it?
Who gives this precious gift to you?
And once you have it...how does it stay?

Dull on the Outside, Bright on the Inside

These two makeup bags made me think of peoples' personalities. The gray bag has a pink interior and the dark/navy blue is lined with blue fabric with white stars.

i have too much time on my hands, obviously..but this contrast made me think of how people are sometimes. Don't judge someone on appearance. This is the lesson i learned today on the train after a chance encounter

The Look

I love this wide pant look. And she wears it well.

Lush is My New Sephora

The only things i foresee myself needing from sephora are perfumes, Josie Maran argan oil and Sephora rouge shine lipsticks. Lush is my new feel- good playground ...for now.

At the moment everything i have make up wise works for me. This is a good feeling.

For the Kidney

I've been told the following are recommended for a healthy kidney:

Water
Cabbage
Olive oil
Red bell peppers
Fish
Garlic
Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries

Also potassium rich foods are to be avoided

From time to time i think about my organs and how my diet affects them

Wedged Sneakers

I've been trying to decide whether or not i should get one of these. They seem stylish and versatile enough to go with a lot of things

Progress

Is my favorite word

(Random)

More Lush

Something tells me I'll be indulging less in clothes and more in books and body products this spring...and i don't mind. Although i love the mud mask I'm eager to try something new. And something i don't have to mix to use

I'm hoping to get cupcake, blueberry catastrophe or oatfix.

Classic Edge

I love this look on Mila Kunis

Wondering if I Should Buy This Book Tomorrow

I don't see why not

Juices that Make It

The juices I've been trying out (in order to get more nutrients in my diet) just keep getting better. Yum

This one has clarified sweet potato, grape, apple, carrot, red beet, blueberryand pomegranate juice. I need a huge bottle if this

Coffee:: Simple Pleasures

Coffee from all over the world is great.and it can be enjoyed in your home our at a cafe with friends or in a mountaintop cabin somewhere..even the beach.

Right now I'm enjoying it at home with vanilla and nutmeg spice

The Little Things: Soaps..Fizzies

I came across a way to make fizzies on Martha Stewart's website but then i decided I'll just buy them for now. I guess I'll make them when i have more time.

In the mean time..i want this soap in my life. After reading the reviews on the Sultana of soap i don't think another shall will top it..according to critics. But I'm willing to give hot milk, sexy peel, Queen of hearts, porridge and a putty for your hands a try

From LUSH's website:

Hot Milk

Good night, sweet dreams

Love the smell of warm milk with a bit of added spice? Hot Milk comforts with orange and patchouli essential oils and soothing coconut milk. Its delicate bubbles envelop you like a favorite old blanket then it wraps you up nice and warm and sends you off to bed with a big hug and a huge smile on your face. Soak in its frothy waters, slip into your favorite jammies and fall into your fluffy bed. Repeat nightly.

Sounds heavenly. And i love that this company fights against animal testing. For this and all the other great reasons, they have my support

Sultana Soap:: Lush

This soap is just delicious, i feel awesome and amazing. The scent is very strong and stays longer than my other soaps. I didn't want to get out of the shower. Now I'm cozy in my bed and the lingering aroma is just prefect. I feel like I'm at a spa on a beautiful tranquil island. I'm raving about this because it's a real treat. Goodbye boring soaps.

The only thing is that it disappears fast. At first I thought it would last me a long time but I'm realizing that it won't...especially if i start staying longer than i need to in the shower.

Also no scented candles necessary..this soap is enough.

Now my indulgent side is looking up other soaps

Sports and Men

Sports like basketball, football and baseball bring out something special in some men. As the superbowl approaches i anticipate the testosterone that will inundate the air..and it's hot but sometimes it's not. I've experienced first hand how important these games can be and I've decided that i will no longer interfere..I'll just be an observer..rather than be in the mix..where it's not that sexy just frustrating when noone remembers that a world exists outside of the fricking game. I've learned to give guys there much needed space to be men and just admire the whole ordeal from afar..and that's not hard at all.

Seducing for Love

You cannot seduce someone to love you. You can.. but not by force. Love is free and unchanging. It is pure and open. It is always there.

You can only be yourself. And love favors you at your best. For as yourself you are love. True to you and worthy of this basal energy that always exists.

You cannot seduce someone to love you unless your heart is true. If your smile is real then your love shines through. If your soul is in pain, your love shines through that too. Just be you

Smile

Amidst shores of people
Big and small
Stone faced and rigid
Far away in thought
But here
Comes a smile
A beautiful little smile
Simple. Charming. Magnificent
The world awakens again

Form Fitting and Flared Skirts

I've been eyeing these. The charcoal skirt in black leather would be ideal.

And a pink lip to add fun to the girly sexy vibe...or just for the sake of having another lip gloss

I wish i had gotten the October Ipsy bag...especially now that bombshell is the ongoing theme in my clothing choices

Stripes and Floral

I'm still trying to figure out if i want to wear these together this way. The stripes are periwinkle and there are hints of periwinkle in the skirt that are "brought to life" by the stripes. I'll see how i feel tomorrow

Starbucks Brownie

Even after saying i wasn't buying anymore sugary snacks from Starbucks i went there and got a brownie with my coffee...i don't even regret it...it was delicious

Exercising in Color

Believe it or not working out in fab gear... or at least nice colors....makes me want to work out more. I feel as though my effort in preparation makes me more invested somehow. So now i love shopping for active wear. I just need some patterned tights to bring even more flavor into the mix.

I love exercising in green for some reason.

Shrimp and Broccoli

Dinner from the sea and soil...kind of

Lush Stuff

Today i went into LUSH with the intention of getting the kiss lip balm..instead i got whipstick because it smells so good. I also got a sweet smelling soap that i couldn't resist.

Love love.

Can't wait to use these. I love that little store. Along with having naturally made sweet things, they also don't test on animals. Prefect.

I should support them more

The whipstick is made of extra virgin olive oil, orange oil and chocolate (yes yes) and i smell the layers at various points of a whiff...it goes on semi clear and brown when i put too much on. I'm in like.

Aroma Indulgence

I really just want to indulge in gorgeous scents. Very soon
