Gothic couture and my favorite Fangirl

2012-05-04T15:51:00.001-04:00

A little while back I got the sweetest, unexpected gift in the mail from my #1 Fangirl and very dear friend Lynn. Wanna see? Isn't it gorgeous! I was drooling over this ring (OK I drool over all of Mykas art and jewelry) But this one I just love and my sweetie Lynn was obviously stalking paying attention and she spoiled me. You can see more of Myka Jelinas fantasy art here she is one of

The way of my weirdness

2012-04-14T08:43:00.001-04:00

Just a quick little post I wanted to share with you all before I get back to another 10 hours of catching up on work. (I would complain but I love what I do so I don't mind) My Best friend sent me the link to this because he thought of me while watching... I absolutely love that this made him think of me. That tells me that I am still following my own path. If you read my blog regularly

Typical Outfit of the day

2012-03-14T21:41:00.000-04:00

I'm not a very fancy girl, I can dress up but I'm more of a comfort killed fashion kind of person. Most days you'll catch me in something like this or jeans. But my sweet friend of forever insisted that for someone who works and is in the public eye most of the time I don't post many pictures of me...all of me so he wins and you have to look at my favorite non fashion. :o) Are in complete

Chopping of the hair and more color fun!

2012-03-13T22:30:00.000-04:00

It was time for a haircut last week, it had been a month and I had major mop head. So I had redone my colors, adding more purple and bit of pink because well I can. Then set up an appointment with my sweety Elaine. I redesigned my cut to leave the back a tad fuller and chopped up the fringe more but it's not too far from my beloved choppy pixie. Oh pictures...you want to see my head right?

My secrets....not so secret

2012-01-17T01:20:00.001-05:00

I have a private group on Facebook, it is not open to the public at all. There is myself and 13 others in the group. I started this group because some of us do not have any family at all, some of us have no one we can talk to in confidence, to vent to, to bitch about whatever or whoever is grating our last nerve at that moment, day week whatever. Everyone needs someone to talk to, to let out

OPI's Muppets Collection is one I was so excited about and I am not at all disappointed!

Vieux Carre OPI - A French Quarter for your thoughts

2011-08-11T18:51:00.000-04:00

Vieux Carre is creole, it means the old quarter (referring to the French Quarter)Hubby being a NOLA boy reacted to the color with "why is it gray". lolIf you've ever been to New Orleans Louisiana then you know whyhe found it odd, all of New Orleans is so full of color it's almost too much, but not.I think it's intended more to be the beautiful old stone work buildings and the famous cemeteries
