No Time To Breathe

I am very slacky on the blog lately. Pretty much anything that is not work, sleep, or food hasn't been getting done. Which makes me sad :( Working full time, especially morning shifts where I have to be up at 4:30, are very hard on me! I am hoping to get a good schedule that affords me some sleep soon, and then I will be able to catch up on the things that I enjoy. For now, here is what I wear to work all the time (or a black polo instead), topped off with a Starbucks apron. I did work my first MAC event yesterday, so more coming on that later ;)

MAC makeup, even when I'm not there!

Miscellaneous

More catch-up outfits! Maybe I'll actually get some time off next week (for my birthday!) and I can make some more regular posts :) I am super busy with not only work, but planning my 25th birthday party. It is going to be a Marie Antoinette themed affair, so there are decorations to be bought and food to be ordered. I just hope it turns out the way i see it in my mind. I have a Pinterest board created for it here.

Another Mom Date Day

I had another nice day with my mom this past weekend. We went to brunch at our favorite spot, Easy Bistro, and to Starbucks and TJMaxx. I'll be having another day like this tomorrow, with my friends & mom, followed by True Blood! Sounds great to me!

Pearls and Bows

I did a few of my favorite things this past week, all in one day. My mom and I ate at a new Mediterranean restaurant downtown, and then sat outside at Starbucks and sipped yummy drinks. It was quite nice. I always love going to dinner or brunch with my mom, I'm a total Starbucks fangirl, and sitting outside in the summer evening is just divine. I really wish summer was year-round. I know many people don't share that sentiment with me, but I am a true Southern Belle!

Simple, girly makeup to complement the preppy stripes and pearls.


Isn't my mom so elegant? Her bag is a Cynthia Rowley and I'm very jealous of it.

Sunshine

I felt like I dressed like a ray of sun this day, even though I didn't feel like it. My life as of late has consisted of lots of boredom, since I can't seem to find a job in my field. All of my friends and boyfriend have jobs, so I spent quite a bit of time alone. It makes me sad, but I am trying to be optimistic that I'll get a great job opportunity soon. On this particular day, my boyfriend and I spent the day with a friend and went to a random pool. You'd think that would be exciting, but it really wasn't...haha. At least I was with my sweet Jason :)

Speaking of Starbucks, I just gave in and applied there today. heck, if I can't find a job in makeup, I might as well work somewhere that I love! Wish me luck!
