Turtleneck Weather

Bruh, fareal.  I wish y'all could understand what my life has been like all week.  LITERALLY all week.  The fact that I even have the energy to give y'all this blog post just shows how committed I am to pulling this thing off.  I know this oily skin is gonna have me looking 30 at 70 but I am really over it.   Hope you all enjoy your weekend because I know I will!.

Sweater Weather

Why is it when you need the time at work it's 5 o'clock before you know it but when you need to get the fuck up outta there it's seemingly 11:30 a.m. for 45 gahdamn minutes?! Shish ain't right. As I've finally had the chance to step away and eat food, I noticed it's an incredibly nice. Perfect sweater weather. Although I could rant about how real shizz is getting at my job, I'd rather enjoy these last few moments of being outdoors before I return to my windowless room. Please baby Jesus can we have just a few more days of sweater weather? 

My highlight is giving me glowy goodness right now.  I pulled out my Morphe Color Smoky palette to hit some icy blue on my lid and black with red highlights in ti.  Today's lippie is Kat Von D's Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Bauhau5

Back to the Future Weather

It's October 21, 2015. If you know why this is important, congratulations you're a nerd!! If you don't know why this is significant, you're a loser. October 21, 2015 is officially the day Marty McFly travels to the future to save his kids in Back to the Future II. If you don't know who Marty McFly is then I just can't help you. It's amazing how we think the future is going to look.  Remember Y2K?  Remember when that was a thing? An actual thing?  Now I wouldn't know how to survive without computers and smartphones.  The future isn't always what you think it's going to look like.  Sometimes it's better, sometimes it's worse.  Sometimes there are hover cars, and sometimes there's Easy Mac.  With either result, be happy to be here for the future, hover skateboards and flying cars are on the way!!

Look back at it I never thought I would be into makeup this much.  Today I'm celebrating Back to the Future Day with Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette and NYX Butter Lipstick in Hunk

Infinity Scarf Weather

Shout out to waking up on time, leaving your house early, and still not making it to work on time, thanks traffic.  You officially can a bag of dicks.  Thankfully it's a nice day and even though I had to walk more than 10 minutes worth of blocks (that's my exercise for today) I'm happy I made it in at least before 9:15 a.m.  Tuesday is my favorite day of the week.  I've got my infinity scarf going WITH the sparkles, I finally have my glasses back and my dog had a great morning cause we played for a good 20 minutes outside.  I've got a pretty decent evening planned for later so here's hoping you have an equally fantastic day!! 

It's finally time for tights! Yasssssss Gawd!! What are you fixing to put on your face to match your tights? Send them blackgurlzboldlips@gmail.com!

Berry-Lip Weather

Happy Monday y'all!! If ever there was an oxymoron, "Happy Monday" would be it.  Which reminds me of one of my favorite racist jokes about black people in Boston but I digress.  Despite the new Arctic temperatures, this weekend was pretty great.  Had a chance to wear some great Fall colors and break out the scarf.  One of my best things about the Fall is the deep, rich berry colors you get to pull out.  Not that you can't wear these colors all wear but something about them in the Fall says "cuddle up next to me in my infinity scarf and Ugg boots" (which incidentally I think look atrocious as a shoe).  Berry lips can look delightful and delectable in almost any shade so take a chance to wear some today!!

Happy Monday! It's Clinique Berry Pop which I paired using gold, orange, and purple from 35S-35 Morphe Color Smoky Palette

Jazzy decided to be sassy in Wet n' Wild Black Cherry, lined with Black lip pencil by NYX

Cynthia lookin' saucy in #254 Mulberry by Make Up Academy lined with MAC lip pencil in Nightmoth
