So here are some pics from my trip, it was honestly crazy how earlier in the week I was wearing boots and gloves, and today I wore flip flops! Gotta love the West Coast!
Another airplane pic, this time it was from NY to LA, I just loved the overcast as it was raining that day:
It got so cold during the flight that there were frosties on the window!
NY Traffic!
We saw the infamous NAKED COWBOY!
Relax! It was a "Shirley Temple" (I am allergic to drinking alcohol)
Me and my co-workers:
Waiting for the shuttle...
Here are some pics I took of that one year old's birthday right before I left for NY...
Mommy and Ayden
Daddy and Ayden

Of course I had to get something from the Heatherette Collection! I only got two lipsticks and two lipglosses: Melrose Mood, Fleshpot, Bonus Beat, and Starlet Kiss.
Bonus Beat looks similar to "C-Thru" Lipglass but a lot more sparkle:
No primer, "Fleshpot" lipstick by itself:
"Melrose Mood":
Aaaaah! Today I was watching American Idol Rewind where they went back to Season 2, and there was a contestant named Carmen Rasmusen who looks just like you (but white!) I don't know if you've ever gotten it -- I wouldn't be surprised if you have.

I can't wait to see the looks you come up with, Melrose Mood definitely seems like your kind of color, haha! BTW, you look GORGEOUS in those pictures. You are probably like 1of 10 people that can pull off intense green eyeshadow and look sooo pretty doing it!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had tons of fun! If your green dress is from Old Navy I ordered the same one last week :)! You look cute.
ReplyDeletelol...naked cowboy always scaring everyone...well at least he's doing it indoors now...looks like you had fun :)
ReplyDeletei'm surprised you didn't get hollywood nights :] i got every lipstick and the same two lipglasses you did. i also got the beauty powder in alpha girl and the e/s trios.
ReplyDeletewelcome back! you took some great pictures. green does look great on you. i did a green look on st. patty's day and the boyfriend complimented me on my makeup for the first time EVER. haha. something about that color... go figure!
ReplyDeleteHi Corrine! haha I don't know, don't really see the resemblance but then again I am my own biggest critic, lol!
ReplyDeleteHi Tricia! I missed you too love! I used just my purse camera this time, CANON SD750.
Rissa- Yup! I love Duane Reade! Too bad we don't have one here in Cali!
Thanks sis Lynne and Anne!
Mandi- I got it from Old Navy!
Hi Brittni! Yup I did her makeup too! Glad you like it! It matched her shirt perfectly!
Lei- You will LOVE NY! You should definitely make a trip there! It's freezing there now though!
Moi- It's actually "Steamy" which I am selling since I have Parrot (doh to me!)
Thanks sis Ren!
i love you in green! heh. :) looks like you had a great time mama. :) and you always take such beautiful pictures. :D happy belated easter! :D
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!!
ReplyDeleteAre you coming to SF for another biz trip? If you work in the ad industry, maybe you'll be here for AdTech? We should go shopping together!! :)
I really like Sock Hop and Lollipop Loving - you should get it.. I know, enabling again ;)
NY looked great! i'd love to go! Melrose mood and fleshpot look so pretty on you but garish in some swatches I've seen on other people lol
ReplyDeletegreat shots!!! i just asked karen about bonus beat and asked her if it was super close to c-thru with shimmer. i'll try it out for myself.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing the swatches!
Those pictures are awesome :) I hate the crazy city, but at night it's really fun to look at :) Plus you look amazing! Wish I can pull off green like you girly!!!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwwww!!!! Loving the 2 yr old pictures!!! :D
Missed you too Nessa! :) lucky you, getting to go to NY. I want to go badly. Might do that the next long weekend :)
ReplyDeletewow Melrose Mood looks awesome on you! I've been wondering if Fleshpot would work the same way as lip erase as a lip base...do you think lip erase would still work better?
hey nessa...yeah, how come fleshpot and melrose mood look amazing on you....but the swatches i've seen on other people make me cringe. did you blot like crazy? is it really that pretty? i'm about to go out n add them to my collection.
ReplyDeleteI'm allergic to alcohol too, it really sucks not being able to be an "average" person and be able to drink but shirley temples are sooo yummy.
ReplyDeletewelcome back! u make me so confident that I'll love melrose mood (i ordered mine... so I have to wait..)!
ReplyDeleteHi Nessa, welcome back!! great pics! and you look stunning, love the green e/s, by the way what did you used?? e/s blush and lippie"show orchid?" lol tons of questions sorry. Such a cute green dress, Im soo in love with greens lately. Regarding Heatherette Collection, I thought youd be getting Hollywood nights =)
ReplyDeletesweetie, you look gorgeous in all your pics.

argh i dont know if my msg gone thru?! lol the comment box didnt say -_-"
ReplyDeletewell anyway i love you in green, your officially my green goddess ;P hehe
Your camera takes brillant photos (re: trip). I especially like the pictures of the plane that was descending and the frost forming on the windom. The smallest things make all the difference, huh?
ReplyDeleteI seriously thought I was the only one allergic to alcohol. I'm sick and tired of people getting shocked or think I'm lying about it.
You look so adorable in those sunglasses! And I can't get over how cute the baby's haircut is!

You look gahwjus in green, both makeup and outfit-wise! Your NY pics are BEAUTIFUL!!! What camera did you use? And also, did you ever get to visit the new Pro store on 22nd st?
ReplyDeleteHi Kat! yeah I love it, I didn't b lot at all I just dabbed it on my lips, Melrose Mood is a bit bright, so I soften it with some gloss...but they are pretty!
