a brown smoky eye, a thunderstorm, and kitties (as always)

So... this was totally an unplanned post.  I'd waaaanted my next post to be a haul or what's in my bag post, but I swear the weather is not on my side! It's been so cloudy and dark, and earlier today in particular there was a horrible storm (several tourists and employees at Sea World's Discovery Cove were struck by lightning!). This is Florida in the summer, my friends - if it's not 100 degrees and unbearable hot, it's pouring rain. I can't wait for fall (I'm a Chicago girl at heart!). :)

Anyways, I've done this same look the past two days, and despite the yuck weather, I was able to snap a few pics. And yes, I'm wearing the same top as in my last post - I just wanted to throw something on to run a few errands (like run to the post office, which ALSO was struck by lightning - crazy!!) before work.  Yada yada yada, enjoy!

And as always, a few more pictures of Sammy & Mouse. I was just informed that August 17th was Black Cat Appreciation Day - I definitely appreciate my little "smudgy pudgy" Mouse! :)

Sammy smiles when he's sleeping :)

Ever so curious about what I'm up to!

Mouse stalking my Fruity Pebbles (I let him lick the bowl when it's empty before I wash it - it's his favorite!)

Weather-permitting, I'll see you lovelies soon!

Thanks for reading. :)

  2. Your makeup is beautiful, per usual. I'm also loving the back to blond hair! Looks great. Meanwhile, the kittens are super adorbs, and it makes me miss being *not* allergic to cats. Cats are the best..boo. Also, stay away from the lightning! Yeeeesh :/ <3 xxx

  4. Hey ladies!

    Rachel - I'm allergic, too, and it sucks! I was using Allegra for two months and that stuff really didn't do it for me. But I've been using Zyrtec the past week or so, and I haven't had any of my usual sneeze-fests or eye itching. Hopefully it keeps working... Oh, and believe it or not, the storm took off in full force while I was in the shower! Not good. :P Btw, I love your youtube ventures - I actually love having them on while I drive - sometimes I actually reply to things you're saying like you're in the car with me! (Should I be admitting that...?) Last ramble - I really want to get my hands on the YSL Midnight Garden palette now. Funny how at first I was "eh" about it and now I NEED it (especially for the green!). :P
