You can't have it all...

But if you could, I would have this scale. It's from Our House Vintage right here in Oakland. I keep looking at it on Etsy, thinking that it will sell and I won't have to obsess about it anymore, but it continues to torture me.

New and Improved!

Because starting fresh is always the best! I love coral and all its shades right now, so henceforth, this blog will be pink until I find a new favorite color.

It's been a week since the worst coldsore of my life reared its ugly head, and those seven days of shame have only made me stronger. And more excited to wear non-Vaseline lip products. I'd like to take a page out of Crystal's book and share one of my new favorite makeup items; the above Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain. It's basically a marker to color in your lips (did you ever do this as a child?), and it looks and feels light and natural. I use the berry shade on the right.

I don't like regular lipstick as it seems to always get on my teeth no matter how much I blot, so I'm a big fan of lip stains and glosses. What are your favorite makeup solutions?
