the holidays are here!

I hate winter. But I love Christmas time! Thanksgiving isn't too special in my family because we're from the Czech Republic and the only ones from our family who live in the US- but to me, it means it's almost Christmas! Yay!

Here I am prepping the turkey.

And here's my festive makeup!

Okay... since this is my blog, I gotta have a sappy, personal moment here. Tomorrow is Christian and mine's 3 year anniversary. Even though he's in Afghanistan, he sent me a gift. A huge gift. A surprise gift!
I enjoy collecting orchids, and of course Christian had to do a little better than any old regular orchid: he got me a beautiful 5-foot tall one!
Oh.. I'm the luckiest girl in the world. Yeah. I love you, Christian!

Thanks for reading <3 I hope everyone (America-wise!) had a great Thanksgiving!

champagne kisses, hold me in your lap of luxury

Christian has this thing for Gwen Stefani. While she's old enough to be his mom, she is his favorite celebrity. I often express to him about how it's a bit hard to come up with new blog posts because I lack inspiration- he then told me that I should try to recreate Gwen Stefani's "chola" look in her Luxurious video. Challenge accepted, Christian.

If you haven't seen the video, this is what I tried to recreate:



I used:

face-
Maybelline concealer
MSFN in Medium
Dainty

eyes-
NYX Milk
Vanilla pigment
Soft Brown
Espresso
Patina
Brule
Eyeko Graffiti eyeliner pen
L'oreal mascara
Andrea lashes #45

lips-
WnW black eyeliner
Viva Glam I





Okay, I'm done with bitch face. Here's the real me!





Thanks for looking everyone :)
