About Me

Updated November 2011:

Two years into the mix and I'm still here!!!

Life has slowed down a bit. I'm now a proud holder of my Master of Science, graduated May 2011.  Still doing database work and now getting back to work on my stationery/gift biz, Collective Elements.  The kid is blossoming into a tween. Ugh, she'll be ten in three months!! She wants to start a fashion blog so she can post Outfits of the Day.  Um...little bit, you wear a uniform to school every day!

I'm still on a journey.  I've been slacking...I admit it. I haven't worn makeup regularly for months. I wear the same outfits all the time.

Why?

After graduation, I kind of hit a slump. Hence, the lack of regular posting but I'm going to get on top of it. I have to...I'm looking for a new gig to put that shiny new degree to work. I can't make a good first impression if I'm backsliding on my style.

So here we go again...

The circumstances are the same...I have to do it on my own, wisely, and on a budget.

So jump in with the reboot...

Height:  5'3 (and three quarters)

Size/Shape:  Roughly 22 in pants sometimes 24, and anywhere from 22 to 26 in tops and dresses.  Still hourglass shaped.

Hair: Currently a little past shoulder length. My last relaxer was in December 2009. My big chop was February 19, 2010 so we are cruising into Year Two of being natural.  I do dye my hair about four times a year.  Most of the time, I color with semi-permanent.

Favorite Facial feature:  It's a toss up between my eyes and my smile.  I have very big eyes and a tiny mouth with good cheekbones.

Favorite Makeup label:  Bobbi Brown, NARS, Maybelline, Cover Girl but I mix it upp.  I have to be careful though, I have allergies and sensitive skin.

Favorite Clothing label:  I mix it up.  I buy what I like so it can be high end, low end, indie or big label.

Favorite flower:  Gerbera Daisies
