SHOE of the DAY!

TGIF my loves! I've been working since 11 PM last night and now I have to go into work till 3 PM! I'm really not in the mood to go into my 2nd job with complicated shoes so I'm just wearing these little things I believe I got at Marshall's a couple of years ago. They're by Tommy Hilfiger & they are super comfortable! This weekend I planned to be confined to my bed catching up on sleep and then hopefully spending the day at the beach this Sunday!  

Happy Friday & enjoy your weekend! 

With Love,

Melissa Christine

Don't ever let anyone tell you that your dreams sound foolish. Because they're not. I believe that if you want something bad enough and you work hard enough. Anything is possible. So dream big and reach for the freakin' stars! I was always afraid of my dreams and I have a lot of things I would like to accomplish. And which ever one happens, I am completely happy. If none of them happen, hey you know what? I'm so happy I tried. I can look back on my life and say I tried like hell. People are jerks. Some jerk I don't even know, this wake said some really rude stuff about the things I dream about. But I don't let stuff like that bother me, it just pushes me to work harder. So whatever it is that you want to do in life. Here are the simple steps.

1. Make sure it's something you're going to be so happy doing for the rest of your life.

2. Go for it!

That's it!

With Love,

Farm Life

I've been to this farm in Hadley, Massachusetts 2 days this week & it's only Tuesday. (As of right now) We stopped there for ice cream on a nice Sunday ride, which I got to say it was so good. You can't beat ice cream coming from the farm, especially a dairy farm. Compared to a typical franchise ice cream shop, I would take a trip out to a farm or a small local creamery any day whenever I had a sweet tooth for a cool treat. It's not as expensive & taste way better. We brought my dog with us this time. My mom was holding him and I had went off to go look at the other cows. I turn around to see my dog in the grass and two cows getting real close. I never ran so fast. I went into serious mama bear mode. Haha! I love farms though. The view, the smell (don't judge me) and just peacefulness (is that a word?) you get from just being there. As much as I want to get out of New England, Massachusetts has some pieces of it, I like to call heaven on earth and Flayvors of Cook Farm is one of them. If you're in the Massachusetts area, you can check this place out at

So peaceful.

What a beauty!

Mother-Daughter bracelets.

So today was a good day. Got out of work at 3:30, went to my guitar practice & then made bracelets with my mom. It was a lot of fun, but we decided we both need glasses. Or at least we think we do because of all the squinting we did today making these bracelets. Like I always say, we all got to start somewhere and I think for first timers, we came up with good color schemes & themes for our bracelets. We are going to be learning different styles and ways to make different types of styles to make more funky and fashionable bracelets. If anyone is interested in buying these, we would be happy to sell them. :D Or if anyone is interested in this 3 style but would like a different color scheme, different charms. Please, we would be happy to work with you & make you a fab bracelet. Whether it be for prom, graduation, a gift whatever it may be. Let us know. <3
With Love,

My Leopard/Cheetah Makeup.

So it's not perfect. But practice makes perfect right? Leopard/Cheetah, whatever I can't tell the difference, but this is me just playing around. Items used:

Urban Decay Naked 2

Elf Liquid Liner

Rimmel Jumbo Pencil

P.S. Don't mind my messy brows. I need to get those done... ASAP!

 

 

I did this in like less than 15 minutes. I'm sure if I took my time it would come out much better. So did anyone catch Aaron Carter on USTREAM? Funny guy and I'm glad to know there's someone who curses as much as I do. Hehe ;) Anyway, I'm going to get back to my cleaning guys. I promise to do a outfit of the day post tomorrow.

Much Love,

Melissa Christine R.

 

 



Quote of the Day

 

I just finished watching Silver Linings Playbook. Phenomenal movie and phenomenal job by Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper. And did anyone see last nights episode of Grey's Anatomy? OMG! That's all I have to say & I can't wait for next week and NEXT SEASON!!! I also did a little cheating on my diet. I had two ice cream sundaes. :( I couldn't help it. I'm hoping for no rain here in Massachusetts so my mom and I can go for our daily walk. Anyway, here is the quote of the day. Love the backround and the meaning of this quote. Take every chance and opportunity given to you, I mean really what's the worse that could happen? You won't be successful? At least you know and learned something. And who knows maybe the next opportunity and chance that comes up, it's your moment, it's everything you dreamed and prayed for. Anyway, I love each and every one of you who take the time out of their day to read my blog post. I truly appreciate it.

Photo Shoot Ideas

So I've been into modeling lately. I mainly do it for my portfolio that I have with Boston Casting. If you don't know, I'm aspiring to be a actress. I've been doing more glamour shoots than anything. While I do like glamour and fashion and even posing in lingerie, I want to branch out and do some more wild portraits. 

These are just some pictures I found on google with the links listed below each one.

Smash Burger

If you're in the area of New Rochelle, NY, check out this awesome burger joint called Smash Burger. One of the most delicious burgers I've ever had. The fries are really to die for too. These are their famous smash fries which have rosemary, olive oil and garlic tossed in them. The burger I had was the BBQ Bacon & Cheddar.

 

 

Check out their menu @ www.smashburger.com

Maybelline Dream Bouncy

So I guess in a way this is a beauty tutorial in written form. I figure I would do this since at first I was confused as to how to get this product on. I tried swirling a brush in it (Fail). I tried taking the whole thing and brushing it up against my cheek (another fail). So here is a step by step on how to use this product.

1. Get a good amount on your finger. If after you feel like you want to add more after getting it on your cheek, you can certainly go back in and get more. But personally I like to use these blushes for a subtle glow.

2. Swipe the product on with your finger.

3. Once you got the amount you desire, take a small CLEAN brush and BLEND. Blending is very important when applying makeup. I'm using a Sonia Kashuk from her tribal set from Target.

4. SMILE! :D

The Maybelline Dream Bouncy blush color I used is in 30 Candy Coral <3

 

Hope you enjoyed and I hope you find this helpful.
