contouring, shapes, illamasqua, oh my!

I have been struggling to find something inspirational enough to get a quality post up, but just this morning, I have stumbled across it!

It's something big, I gotta say. It's changed makeup & fashion & STYLE in general for me. I've been looking it up and searching around for 4 hours now and I think it's safe to say:

TOXIC NATURE by Illamasqua has changed everything I ever knew about makeup.

Specifically, this picture right here.

The shading! The contouring! the way they make her face and features stand out!

She looks like a character of herself or an enhanced version of her own features.

What an amaaaaazing concept.

I'm super excited to start experiementing with this concept. So excited, in fact, that I am going to end this post early and go do that right now.

In other non-fashion news, I am expecting to be launching an indie-electro-punk side project. Veru hush hush, not even my boyfriend knows about it yet.

Stay tuned!

love and kisses,

Letitia

onepeices, red paint, royal housewarmings, oh my!

Today, I am feeling very bold. So bold, in fact, that I pulled out of my (new, walk-in) closet; a onepeice jumper, in a blue and beige small leopard print and gladiator shoes, and didn't even think twice before walking out the door.

I must admit, jumpsuits kind of scare me. They take confidence more than anything to pull off, and today, (with the help of brand ~spanking new makeup and my new pheromone-infused perfume [review coming soon~]), I feel like I can work it!

Today, B & I are going to buy some red & purple paint, red for bedroom - purple for living room, to spice up our walls with. We also need to pick up a futon eventually and some draperies to hang about for my Royal Housewarming, which will be occurring in T-8 days!

Stay tuned for some very exciting upcoming posts. At least, I'm excited~!

love & kisses,
Letitia

Work, work, work!

I'm typing this up on my smartphone at work while I should be diligently working.

Today I am painting my new apartment, finally settling in to my new home. <3 The bedroom will be red, we have beautiful curtains and bedsheets, but no couch... or kitchen table. THRIFTING/IKEA TRIPS ARE IN ORDER!

My mind is pretty much apartment oriented most of the time lately. Pictures and more recent updates are to be expected as soon as I have the time.

Much love,
Letitia <3
