Re-fashion stripe skirt semi-DIY

Inspiration picture.
Semi - DIY project: if your size is the average ladies/juniors size then this project will work for you. Stroll over to the plus-size women's and scoop up a stripe top in a jersey fabric. Only concern is that the shirt part must easily fit the widest part of your hip and be long enough for your leg length. Cut just under the arm and make a casing for a drawstring, or elastic, no need to hem, its done for you. see image below, the dark shirt has a banding at the bottom, just flip and use the banding for your waist, shirts from Target.com

Eyebrows and Matte eyeshadow tip

I have noticed that matte eye-shadows look flattering and  appealing as opposed to shimmery colors on slightly hooded eyes. I have also noticed that unless you want to spend $25.00 on a single shade, matte is difficult to find. Dark color of matte shades is best for my dark green eyes to use as a defining crease color, I use the the NYC brow grooming kit that has a matte shade on one side and grooming wax on the other. Cost is around $3 at Wal-Mart.

Man and travel

perfect bag for a man on the go

I am saving my dimes for these beauties


Starting Sept 1st, I am putting back a little bit of $, till these are mine. I can see me wearing these on romantic sunset strolls in my Mesquite woods with my handsome brawny husband. I am going to wear them with jeans, chunky sweater (oatmeal or grey color) and a crocheted scarf and hat. I can see the plaid matching the winter red stain of my lips with the orange glow of a sunset. Gorgeous!

What you eat in private will show in public

This was taken from an airport scanner two women going side by side, 250lbs, vs 120lbs. Besides the basic differences in body tissue the enlarged heart really motivates me to stay thin

Hooded Eye Makeup

Found this fabulous tutorial on how to correct a hooded eyelid. Here is the link to the owner of the tutorial . Eye Shadow Makeup for Downturned Corners | Makeup Over 40
Hooded eyes are a family genetics for me, I noticed it by late 20's and now in my mid 40's my eyes look awake, youthful, and open (thanks to this tutorial) Have followed the steps on the web site and it has worked great for two months now. Hope this helps someone else. Share the credit and the love.
