Chic Couture {Series}-Colors of Love~Purple

Want something a little different on Valentine's day than the norm of red or pink? Then go purple!  Purple is one of my favorite eyeshadow colors to wear.  Yep it goes great with my boring brown eyes! And now that I think about it I like wearing purple clothes too! Here's my purple picks!

{Majority of these are from Etsy! Yay for handmade!}

I do have the first purpley Kat Von D palette and have used it a lot.  And I've gotten compliments on my eye makeup when wearing it!

That's it for the series! It was fun!

Happy Friday Lovelies!

Darling Day-Fashion Finds!

Very low entries for the 150 'Fall'ower Giveaway!! Are you going to do some baking this fall?
Check it out HERE!!

I'm going out on a small limb here and showing you some of my favorite 'fashion' pins recently.  I say going out on a small limb because I've been thinking of adding some fashion content to my blog.  Not sure yet exactly what but I like fashion....I do have a degree in apparel merchandising!  But I"m going to be honest...I'm hiding behind the computer.  Yep I am. Ashley's writing has got me thinking about a lot of stuff and some good blog advice is to just be yourself.  Well the real me likes fashion.

So I'm not sure, but I'm doing a lot of thinking.....

Would fashion content even fit?

Hhhmmm....

Lori and Kori are some inspirations!  And I was invited to Kori's Fashion Friday so here goes!!!

{Sweet Sponsor} A Little Slice of Special

I'd like to introduce you to one of my first sponsors!!

Lori of A Little Slice of Special

Lori and I became connected on Twitter and then each other's blogs.  She is a fashion blogger with some of her other interests here and there.  I enjoy reading her fashion and makeup posts.  She's fun and confident and different.  I like different.

Here's some of Lori's own words:

"Instead of continuing to try to dress like everyone else, I've been trying to dress for myself, in the things I love, and in doing so I am discovering and finding my own style."

Sounds like an interesting and inspiring journey!

Some recent posts:
