Purple Reigns

April 24th, 2014 by Karen 9 Comments









Purple flowers in the house, y’all!

Well, technically not inside the house, but near it.

In the neighborhood, at least.

I saw these on my walk earlier today… Don’t the ones up there look like crinkly paper?

I’m so glad I had my phone with me because the wildflowers are going crazy right now! All of the trees, flowers and grasses are pretty happy about the heavy rain we got earlier this month.

I always love this time of year when everything’s still green… There are so many beautiful things to see. You just have to look for them. 🙂

    To Vanessa: I think the last photo (if that’s the one you’re asking about) is a Russell Lupine, which is related to the Texas Bluebonnet. Russell Lupines are larger and more impressive than Texas bluebonnets, but they don’t grow well in hot climates.

    The crinkles in the petals in the first photo are just incredible! Such beautiful flowers, and of course, purple is always the best colour 😉

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
