In other news, I am wearing my new Makeup forever HD makeup that I picked up after watching a tutorial from the lovely and gorgeous Ally at Gumboot Glam. I had a lot of friends swear by the stuff but I never actually tried it. I like it a lot. What do you think?
Also, I read an article in the January issue of Glamour magazine that I really connected with. It is about expressing yourself, written by Lauren Lungerich.
She writes: “From an early age, I’ve been nice. I came out of the womb that way.
And even though in my formative years it felt like the not-so-nice people got ahead, no matter how hard I tried to be vindictive or rock a sexy pouty face, I just couldn’t, I was too smiley. I still am.”
The point of the article is that you don’t need to be bitchy to be yourself or to get ahead. In fact nice, according to Lauren, is the new cool. So I guess I am en-trend!
I cringe when I hear girls cut each other down, it is now obvious to me that it is their own insecurities playing out. I actually heard someone suggest a girl started wearing orange only because she herself loves and wears orange. The color orange! I’m sorry girl, I wanted to say, but you did not discover that color!
So I hope that in the new year we can all do more to express ourselves, in a positive way, and live our lives truly for ourselves and not for anyone else. Read the article in Glamour for more!
Have a great day and thanks for visiting!
