Todays color of the day is green! I almost never wear green eyeshadow even though its my favorite color, and if I do its a wimpy almost-neutral like olive so I decided to go all out with a bright gre...
Part two of my rainbow eye looks is PURPLE!! I love the look of purples on brown eyes and I find that it is probably one of the easiest bright colors to wear on the eye. For some reason though I wear...

I FINALLY got around to watching Breakfast at Tiffanys last night and I cant believe I kept putting it off. The makeup is impeccable and the costuming was stunning. Obviously seeing as how this and M...
