Perfect makeup: Bobbi Brown

Making nude and natural look fabulous for how many years? Bobbi Brown is a genius.

I wish that I could achieve this look that popped up in my email today:




Except that brightening finishing powder that looks so dreamy on our email model here would just end up making me look like an even bigger greasy mess.




Can you spot the face in that jar of BB?

Hehe. Made me laugh.

Perhaps I'll break down and order a whole mess of makeup, after all, because it's really hard to resist Neiman Marcus beauty bags!

Monograms and Manicures' 4th Annual Pink Swap

This was my 2nd year to do Hopsy's Pink Swap, and this year, I was paired with Erin, a sweet blogger (and fellow teacher!) from Alabama.






This is Erin with her honey at an Alabama game. (Let us not forget the Michigan season opener against Alabama at Cowboys Stadium this fall...this pink swap is turning fierce!) Make sure to click to learn more about Erin, y'all.

So. I know you're dying to see the goodies I got! A USPS medium flat rate box full of delicious pink: stationery, lip balm, nail polish, votives, a monogrammed cup, my fave pink pens, and a gorgeous scarf!








So many fab pink pretties...my naked neck has a new wrap. I kind of like how I knotted it up like a pretzel.  Or a four-leaf clover. Fancy!

Thank you, Erin! I love my swap swag and am so glad I got to " meet" you!
