New Do’ and Ruby Woo
Hello lovelies! Today is another casual and simple jeans and tee look. I wanted to keep today’s look super simple because I wanted to show how this new do’ and Ruby Woo can make the simplest of outfits pop. It’s really crazy when my hair was long and relaxed about two years ago, I walked into the MAC store looking for some new lipstick. My hubby and I were going to be attending the Army ball that upcoming weekend. I told the associate that I was looking for a red lipstick. She tried Ruby Woo on me and I hated it, I mean I couldn’t wipe it off fast enough. I thought it was too bright and the wrong shade of red for my darker complexion. Well over these last two years I have seen women of numerous shades swear by Ruby Woo, so with this new do’ I’ve been wanting to step out of my comfort zone more and more, so last week I went to the MAC store looking for lipsticks that I have seen others wear and loved but was too shy and afraid to wear myself. They were totally different from what I already owned. Ruby Woo was one of them.
When I got home I tried it on without a lip pencil and fell in love. On my lips in these pictures is simply Ruby Woo and I love how it looks. I tell you, I don’t know if its the fact that I don’t have hair getting in the way competing with it, or what but I look and feel totally different wearing it today. It just somehow magically seems to go with me now, does that sound crazy? lol
Currently in my everyday mommy life I am basically a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl. It works for getting dressed quickly in the mornings and play dates at the park. But what I’m realizing now in this fashion journey that I’m on is that a basic jeans and tee outfit doesn’t have to be boring. You can add visual interest to your tee by choosing one with graphics or a cute print or a tee in your favorite color. For jeans you can try a pair with some distressing, if ripped jeans aren’t your cup of tea, you can try rolling up a regular pair without distressing or cuffing them on bottom. Also colored jeans and printed jeans are other great options. Every once in a while I think it’s good for the soul to step out of our comfort zone. You never know, you just might find something that you really like and looks good on you and you never would have known it if you didn’t give it a try.
Also out of my comfort zone are these super huge hoop earrings, I mean I know they are humungous and impractical, bigger than my bracelets even. But I had three family members tell me to get some big hoop earrings when I cut my hair. So I decided to go and find some. I bought some in gold and silver and all different circumferences. These were the biggest available that I found at Forever 21. When I got home and tried them on, I thought these are kind of fun and cute. I know they’re big, but I think they work, now they are not an everyday type of earring for me, but when I’m feeling sassy I don’t think I’ll have a problem picking these up. I think they look cute with my new bright red lipstick and short do. Hi my name is Tanasha and I am stepping out of my comfort zone, I now rock really short hair with bright red lipstick, black eyeliner and enormous hoop earrings and I like it.
