remanence of fall

While enduring this brutal oklahoma heat and digging through old school pictures on my computer, I came across an album of me and my mom on the way to my fall orchestra concert. (wow back in the day.....not really) They are quite amusing given the fact I was trying for "the most awkward picture". But I love looking at them not only for a good laugh but to remember there was such a thing as cold weather and having to wear longsleeves and coats.









its like....lava.

I hoped you enjoyed that as much as me.
beautiful right?
Well, lets hurry up and get some cold weather up in here so I can take more.
By the way I am wearing one of my FAVORITE lipsticks that I need to restock in, by YSL (Yves Saint Laurent) in the mean time I wear my "nude" Bobbi Brown shade. They are both good shades! Looks good without looking like make-up. ya know?

Peace.
