Welcome!
Oh, the beauty of Springtime! Not necessarily my "favorite" season really (ahhh warm Summer sunshine... Mmm soothing smells and crisp air of Autumn), but there is just something exhilarating and down right HAPPY about this time of year! Makes me feel like dancing! (*cue music* http://youtu.be/y6Sxv-sUYtM
...go ahead, I'll wait!)
See! Ok, back to the pretty talk;) This may just be the 6+ months of dreary, dark, bitter, cold, below zero temperature talking, but I adore the colors of Spring! Vibrant blues, pastel greens, lemony yellows and lovely lavenders! And of course, any shade of pink!!! And it's as if every designer, make up artist and beauty magazine editor have been waiting just as we have...to release a literal explosion of these colors!
Have you seen the new Drew Barrymore collection of cruelty free/USA made/high quality for low price makeup line so appropriately called FLOWER?!
Everywhere they are blooming right alongside the buds on the trees. And. We. LOVE. It!
Every magazine rack. Every makeup counter. Every display window. Even the www, full of bouquet palette junkie fixes. And I am an addict!
Now, I'm no expert nor will I ever claim to be! More of just a messenger.
I love my fair share of fun beauty finds though! I admittingly can not miss a month of Stylewatch, find joy in reading a long list of favorite beauty blogs, have a drawer full of trial size this and that's and wait ever so (im)patiently for my Birchbox every 30 days.
I tend to have that trait of being unable to choose favorites. For example, favorite color? I love pink...but have you seen mint green lately and coral and cobalt blue is to die for OH and black! Yes, black actually falls into my favorite color list. (Don't get me started on movies, songs or numbers! I'm a passionate, artistic old soul with obsessive compulsive tendencies...yeah, you do the math!)
My very simple point here...and then this Blog was born! Pretty Little Pick-Me-Ups (and stuff) is exactly that! An extension of my Living Authentically... and Other Daily Chores but a tad lighter and a smidge more superficial;)
I truly believe it's important for EVERYONE to feel comfortable in their own version of beautiful. Unique, diverse, expressive, exciting beauty! I'm going to share my personal take while always encouraging yours. It's about trying new things, just like in life! Remain open. And honest. Always with yourself first. Use kindness and love towards yourself first and foremost and throw a little shimmery shadow on your third eye while you're at it:)
Alright! Now let's get started. There's heels to be worn and lips to be glossed! 💋
Good Day Lovelies
