Halloween 2011: Zipper Eye

This is a look I've done 2 other times - the first in 2007 when MAC first released the facechart (which we do not talk about anymore...I painted the zipper on my face...and it was atrocious) and then 2010 (wherein I glued a zipper to muh face!) and then finally, NOW!

Thoughts: Tarte for True Blood (palette)

I will admit.  I did read Twilight when I was living in Florida (I mean, I literally had nothing better to do with my time) and despite it's angsty teenage terribleness...it threw me back into the VampHype that was going on at the time -- and is still going on...

Which leads me to True Blood.  I started watching the show before I'd ever read any of the books and I adored it!  I literally craved the next episode when the first one was over.  True Blood was also something Florida offered me that Maine wouldn't have (we don't get HBO in our cable package here - but when I lived down there my roommate was a TV-holic and so we had super premium cable).  Then I read the books...and goodbye tv show (I think I made it through all of season one and part of season two and I haven't watched it since).  The books far outshine the show.  But that's not what this review is about is it?

Vintage FOTD: Peach Pop (Summer 2011)

*I feel it necessary to begin this post with a disclaimer of sorts...because of all the past blog posts that were deleted not to long ago (of which I am still seething about mind you...) I may not remember the exact products that I used.  Some of these photos are almost a year old! However, I do promise to give you as much information as I can remember...so if you don't see something listed in the VINTAGE FOTD posts, please know it's not that I'm not listing it, I just may not remember...*

NAILS: "Stop Stocking Me" - Sephora By OPI Holiday 2011

I came to be in possession of a bottle of polish from the FABULOUS upcoming Holiday collection from Sephora By OPI (aka, I spent my last $ on it!  No guys, really...I paid in quarters...haha)!

Stop Stocking Me is a gorgeous metallic golden plum color, perfect for the upcoming holiday season as it's neither too vampy nor too pastel (think Sin-Cerely Violet from this past fall collection from the brand...it was so out of place amongst all the deep vampy colors).  On my nails it hovers somewhere between a more grayed-blue-toned plum and a more royal-blue purple...and being that I'm a HUGE purple lover, I fell in love with it just from seeing it in the bottle!

Whoops!

I honestly have no idea how it happened...but somehow I managed to accidentally delete ALL my photos from my blogger/wherever it was they were stored...so therefore that meant every post was moot.

Over the next couple months I hope to re-blog some of the bigger blogs like the reviews...and hopefully the blog will be as informative as I hope it can be!
