Wear Your Wounds With Pride

Category: My OutfitsEyeliah @ 3:00 pm

Thanks everyone for your comments on yesterdays outfit, you seriously have me blushing.  For everyone I’m sure, sometimes it is so embarrassing to receive compliments.  It’s also interesting to me to see an outfit with only 4 pieces (dress, tights, collar and flats) can get so much attention, simplicity really can go a long way in being stylish.  I have to remember to convey that more, the majority of my outfits are busy like this one below.

Americas Next Top Model Season 14 Episode 1

Category: Media, My OutfitsEyeliah @ 9:00 am

Last night on the premiere episode of ANTM Cycle 14 they chose the top 13.  (Spoiler Alert)  I was really annoyed to see Angelea there again.  The fact that she got in the house is appalling, she was obviously chosen for the drama she will cause.  The singing and pierced girls didn’t make it in, I feel like they are both so similar to Season 12’s Allison so it made sense to leave them out.

Tyra rocking the fringed shoulders, yes I took a picture of my tv.

First Impressions

Makeovers were done way too soon, whatever happened to waiting until the third week?

Alasia, great rocked out hair – major improvement.

Brenda has an interesting look, I wish Tyra went with her first instinct of a blunt shoulder length cut instead of so so short. LIKE HER

Raina and those bold brows; but with dark hair they make less of an impact. LIKE HER

Tatianna, maybe it’s just the lipstick that makes this look awful. I’m bored.

Simone with a shaved side, so hot (I still want to rock this look myself).

Anslee, the makeup is throwing me off.

Naduah is stunning, of course she was picked first. ADORE HER

Ren, maybe too edgy? I feel awful saying it but I’m bored.

Gabrielle, looked great before and after the makeover. ADORE HER

Angelea, trying to soften her up with this do so lets see if it works.

Jessica, I’m bored.

Alexandra, what a beautiful “plus size” woman.

Krista, looked better pre-makeover.  That skin is flawless too bad she is already 24.

Thoughts?

Fairytale Dressing

Category: My OutfitsEyeliah @ 3:30 pm

First I wanted to go Snow White with my hair and makeup.  I was somehow inspired by Alice in Wonderland to wear sweet vintage pieces.  Lastly to pull it all together Dorthy’s red slippers.  Anyways, that was my thought process today.

Outtake; so chilly!

Love It Would Be Much Better

Category: My OutfitsEyeliah @ 12:00 pm

Having the weekend off from blogging really helped me to get some things organized and I started off this week much more relaxed. I even had the time to plan a half dozen outfits, I’m really inspired by rich textures, pattern mixing, bold jewelry and jewel tones. I hope that I can bring this across in my outfits for the next couple of weeks. Also Gossip Girl is back on the air (and they opened with Serena dressed in bowed gloves and grey tones *le sigh*) as well as my guilty pleasure Tuesdays (90210 and Melrose Place) and ANTM (get ready for more recap posts!). I don’t how tv land expects me to go from watching barely any to 4 hours a week, we will have to see how it goes.

How much television do you watch and what shows?

Lost in Wonderland

Category: My OutfitsEyeliah @ 11:00 am

Thanks for all your thoughts on weekend blogging, I am not surprised that many of you read and blog on the weekends.  I will continue to post on the weekends, perhaps with more timed posts as well.

The winner in the haircolor poll was  a tie between red and darkest brown, and since I spent 2007 as a redhead I opted for the darker shade.  I admit I already miss my blue. ;-)

What I wore to see Alice in Wonderland.

I am impressed I made the effort to dress whimsical for such an early (10am) show.   The movie was really really good; though I’ve decided I don’t really like 3D, 2D is just fine for me.

P.S. Oscars post coming later today, yes I watched the whole thing!
