saturday "fashion" night

hey ladies!  been a while since i posted but here i am again. 

we went to a birthday party this past saturday night and the theme was just to be fashionistic.  i couldn't decide what to wear and i actually had another outfit planned out (a rocker chic) but at the end, i wore this instead...due to the rain that we got all night friday night into all day saturday.  i didn't think it was safe enough to wear high high heels... i didn't want to bust my ass on the hidden ice.  ^_^

gray knit hat: dots (i didn't wear my hat when we were at the party)

blue floral tunic: target

gold necklaces: heart one is kelly's, the others, rue21

tights: forever21

leg warmers: i forget

brown boots: charlotte russe

my almost finished makeup for the night.

now, completely finished.

mary kay mineral foundation in beige 2

elf contour set

jane blush (forgot the name)

eyes & lips:  browns out of my 120 pallet

mac's gold mode

nyx black liner

wet&wild's gel liner

mary kate & ashley purple glitter (used on top of gel liner and under my lash line)

cg lashblast

2 random falsies

wet & wild l/s (forget the name)

rimmel lip plumper

this is my favorite pic of me & the Mr. from that night.  i dunno why but it just is.  LOL

me & the gf, bee.

i've noticed that in these pics from this night, i look more pinky than she does... not sure why when we both were similar shades.  could be cuz she's wearing liquid foundation and i'm wearing mineral foundation.  i dunno... it's just weird.

i will post up more pics when i have time later tonight.  i have some fashion contest pics from the birthday that i want to share with you all.

2nd post of the night!

wow!  really weird to have me post up 2 entries in one night.  lol

but um, i just wanted to share some recent pics with you ladies.

this was my fotd from last friday.  i forgot to take an ootd pic.

the Mr. wanted to show off his earring cuz from one of his pics from NYE, his earring was sparkling like crazy. 

he thought it would it again.  lol

then we went to a baby shower on saturday at the hmong school that my sister and bro-in-law teaches at.

it was like a trip down memory lane.  LMAO

my outfit of the day:

necklace: new york & co

black lace cardigan & black lace tank: burlington

white tank underneath black lace tank & jeans: f21

gray boots: ami

took gavin with me so here's our pic together

my boys from the other night

kel & i at the school

peace out y'all!  don't mind kelly's middle finger... even though she ruined my pic.  LOL

that's it for the pics... i didn't want to overload y'all with pics. ^_^

Mini Haul & Nomination

hey ladies!  i've been wanting to try the new eyeshadow quads by maybelline.  i finally got 2 while they were still buy one get one 1/2 off at walgreens.  and i also got this rimmel sexy curves mascara.  i tried it but i don't like how they make my lashes too straight.  i think i'll stick to my hg mascara, lashblast.

Miss Irish nominated me for the "Gorgeous Blogger Award".  Thanks to Irish

for being so sweet!

The rules are...

1. Thank the person who nominated me for this award
2. Copy the award and place it on your blog.
3. Link to the person who nominated me for this award
4. Tell 7 interesting things about myself
5. Nominate 7 Bloggers
6. Post links to the 7 blogs I nominate.

And now the 7 most interesting things about me are:

1.  as much as i am anal about certain things and keeping my stuff clean... I HATE KEEPING MY HOUSE TOTALLY CLEAN!  LOL  does that sound weird?  i hate cleaning cuz with 2 little boys, it gets messy right away.  my house is a mess.  lol

2.  i have not traveled as much as a person my age should have.  i have only been to cali, florida, wis (my home state) and here (mn)... i feel like i'm so old and leaving my kids with anyone for too long seems like a burden to the people who will be watching them.  guess i'll never have a long vacation ever until my kids are old enough to take care of themselves.  lol  but then again, we're planning a weekend vaca to vegas this march.  :P

3.  i have NOT gone to a concert ever!  that's so sad to say. 

4.  i speak very bad hmong (my other language).  lol  i think i'm good but man, when the old folks talk to me, i'm just like "huh?"  even when my girlfriends, who speak better hmong than i do, talk to me... i go "huh?" to them too

5.  i act like i'm a badass in real life but it's only an act... i'm a soft hearted girl who just doesn't want to get screwed over by anyone... so i have my guard up a lot of the times.

6.  i'm the type of person who wants to do something all the time.  i can't sit still unless i'm tired or it's way cold out.  maybe that's why my son, mitchell, is like that too.  lol

7.  everyone that i know thinks i'm high maintenanced but i don't think i am.  LOL  the Mr. says "yeah, you are... wait, no you're not cuz the clothes you buy are cheap.  you're only high maintenanced with your makeup and going places." LOL  he's so mean, yet so true.

hope you enjoyed these random little facts about me.  the ladies i will be tagging are:

Pop Champagne
Angie
Tina
Stacieee
Meya
Katrina
