no heat curls


I am a little lazy when it comes to doing my hair on a daily basis.  Most days it gets put into a ponytail or bun for work becasue I don't want to take the time to blow dry and curl in the morning.  I love this idea for the days I am up for my hair down.  If anyone has tried this before let me know how it turned out!

eyes


I love this idea:

"Tightlining your eyes (also known as the "invisible eye liner") is a great way to add a subtle definition to your eyes. Instead of lining the skin above your lashes, you line between the lash line. This method is perfect for any casual or fancy occasion, and is super easy to master. Keep reading to learn how to tightline your eyes with a pencil or gel eye liner!

HOW TO Tightline Eyes with Pencil or Gel Eye Liner

  1. Using clean fingers, gently lift your lashes upward (this step is only necessary if you find it easier to tightline). You'll see tiny gaps between your lash hairs, which you'll be filling in with eye liner.
  2. Using either a gel or pencil eye liner, lightly dab the eye liner in between each individual lash (as close to the root as possible), to fill in your lash line and make it look fuller. Start at the the inner and work to the outer corner of your eye. Congratulations, you've officially tightlined your eyes!
  3. To intensify the look, tightline your bottom lash line as well. It's the same concept as the top, but you'll be filling in the space between your lower lashes."

neutrals

I am all for a pop of color to add excitement into a space but my real love is layering neutrals to create texture and depth without a pop to distract the eye, take a look at how interesting these rooms are...

starbucks


This is a new Starbucks in Amsterdam.  I love the creative wood block ceiling.  It's also interesting to see what a large amount of communal seating it has and how big it is!   I feel like every Starbucks I walk into is cramped and you have to fight for a place to sit.  Very inspirational!
