makeup and sunny days..

First off, let me just say the weather around here has been gorgeous lately. Sunny and warm, but not hot. I've been able to walk around in skirts and dresses without tights and tee shirts without a sweatshirt... It's real nice..

Now on to the meat of the post! I've been up to some stuff lately. Hauled some makeup (pictures below), getting ready to start on some sewing projects, and went to a poetry slam the other night (I just love poetry..).

Makeup haul:

Lots and lots of Wet N' Wild! I guess when you're low on money you gotta work with what you have.. I haven't done skin makeup before because of acne problems (which looks gross covered up, IMO) so I'm excited to try my new concealer and powder! I'm also VERY excited to try that new hot pink lip color.. Isn't it gorgeous?

So excited to try this color! It's Kate by Rimmel Matte lipstick in 06 (don't remember the name). 

So the sewing projects I've been wanting to try are basically making my own clothes. I have a hard time finding skirts and dresses that fit in all the right places under $30, so I thought I would pull out the fabric from storage and my sewing machine and get to work! I also found a really cute pattern for a cosmetic bag that I would like to try, since I have limited space for things like that!

What's your favorite skirt pattern? What are some things you would like to see on my blog?
