    I worked a bit on the dissertation (dammit procrastination) and watched some old-school britney vids on youtube. She was so cute.

      Hi Karen B,

      She totally was. Remember Sometimes I Run? That’s one of my favorites.

    OMG! Those cakes!!! I am in full-on jaw-droppin’ awe!

    Hope your weekend is going well! I’ve had some family emergencies over the last few days and am feeling down, so I’m going to try to get out for some retail therapy today! I feel I need to have an up-close-and-personal with the Armani Manta collection!

      Hi Glosslizard,

      Yeah, that cake website sucks you in … and makes you HUNGRY!

      Sorry to hear about the family emergencies. I hope that everything gets sorted out soon and that your “me time” with the Manta Ray collection cheers you up.

      Hi Karen B,

      It seems like her life is getting back on track. I’m happy for her… hopefully soon she’ll be in a stable, good place!

      What’s your favorite old school Brit video?

    lol, I see you like the laser site I tweeted you 🙂

    love the gossip girl link – I need to get back into that show. I have like 10 episodes on my tivo that I just haven’t gotten around to watchin’ yet. I think I like it mostly for the style and to see what they wear 🙂

      Hi Tiffany,

      I spent waaaay too much time on that site. I have a laser pic of my BFF Cindy from seventh grade — she’d KILL me if I submitted it.

      Hmmm…

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).
