Now, lately I have been struggling to come up with creative ideas. I seem to go in phases of creativity & love for blogging, and it quickly seems to deplete and here I am again... Struggling.<br />
<br />
So I decided, instead of publishing posts I am not too thrilled with or just not posting at all, I am going to post a photo (or photo set) a day throughout the entire month of May.<br />
<br />

May is one of my favorite months of the year, so I figured it would be a good month to publish some photos i am proud of without having to feel obligated into writing. This is kind of my way of "making it work," the wise words of Tim Gunn. I am also hoping this will spark some idea fire like the last time I started the "photo-a-day" project. So everybody, fingers, toes, arms & everything crossed! </div>

<a href="http://alteredbyamber.blogspot.com/">My mother</a> & I made this video to show our support & love towards the victims, families, and survivors of the tragedies that happened, both in Boston and Waco, TX. This video was incredibly fun to make, all while sending love to those who were greatly affected.<br />

I have always wanted to make a stop-motion video, so I was more than happy to help my mom in her project for a digital art class. The Boston Marathon bombing also showed me just how quick your life could go from exciting to terrifying. It's pretty eye-opening when it's closer to home. </div>

If you have been following me or checking my blog at any length of time, you most likely know I love photoshoots. I am constantly planning them out in my head and even though I sometimes get slightly impatient <a href="http://www.alteredbyamber.blogspot.com/">my mother</a> is always willing to be my photographer. ;)</div>

We have just recently made it tradition for us to have one big photoshoot/adventure day on any major holiday or any Sunday for that matter. This Easter, we decided to pack up my mum's new tripod & funky umbrella to hit the road in search for a good backdrop for that day's photoshoot.</div>

Now, this is just the behind the scenes post so you will be seeing the real shots soon :)</div>

After a day filled with laughs & great photos, we decided to have a late lunch at one of our favorite restaurants on the coast (it helped that it was the only restaurant open...). We laughed, made fun of each other, took some more fabulous photos, had some great food, and enjoyed each other's company until it was time to return to reality. </div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GRY9_VggK6M/UVic4mFE1mI/AAAAAAAABy8/JcVaG8YLXDY/s1600/photo+(3).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GRY9_VggK6M/UVic4mFE1mI/AAAAAAAABy8/JcVaG8YLXDY/s320/photo+(3).JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
So I may <strike>or may not</strike> have completely neglected my blog for the past few months... I could give the old, cliched lame excuses of business or just plain laziness, but I figure if Justin Timberlake can take a break after N'SYNC and still have a major career comeback, so can I, so here's a currently post to get us re-acquainted.<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">What's New;</i> My life has been pretty much a whirlwind of good news & exciting stuff. New car and new phone (granted, I had to completely shatter my iPhone & sob in a parking lot over it to get this new said iPhone 5 buuut), good news for the summer, and making ridiculous (but fun) plans for the future. I am literally very excited as I type this.<br />
And running. Running is new (again), but this time it is going to stick ;)<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Reading; </i>I have been in one of those major reading funks where I can get through about 3 chapters (or half of the way) through a novel and I cannot (and I mean CANNOT) finish it for the life of me. These times completely annoy me, especially when I just want to chill out & read. But oh well, fingers crossed I abort this non-reading mission soon.<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Watching; </i>I have been watching many, many movies lately. And I mean many. Everything from Les Mis (which is one of the most genius movies I've seen in a while) to the finale in the Twilight Saga (also quite amazing). I have also been watching countless YouTube videos and I am currently being persuaded to start watching the Supernatural series by a new friend, which I will mostly likely fall in love with more non-existent people and become obsessed with yet another series. But hey! Why else do they give us great TV shows?<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Thinking about; </i>SUMMER. My summer plans are getting ridiculous, but it the best possible way. Many road trips, many days planned to be at the beach, many good times I can see ahead, and I literally can not wait.<br />
<b><i><br /></i></b>
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Eating; </i>Lately, I have been *attempting to eat more healthy than normal. Salads, greek yogurt, cutting out sweets as much as possible. However, I have had quite a few "cheats" lately. Thanks Five Guys, Easter, and friend's with birthdays!<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Wishing for; </i>An English Bulldog puppy. Yes, you read that right. I want a puppy soooo bad, it's awful. Well, actually, I want <i>two</i>. I even have their names picked out. I have a problem.<br />
<br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Listening to;</i> Ed Sheeran. Ed Sheeran. and oh yeah, Ed Sheeran. I was going through my old posts and I obviously will never get over this boy because he's all I've been listening to for the past 10 months.. But on the rare moment I haven't been listening to him, I've been listening to Mumford & Sons, Sleeping with Sirens, Lana del Rey, Hoodie Allen, Phillip Phillips, The Wombats, Nevershoutnever (oldie, but a goodie), Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, and MCR just to name a few. (I literally just looked at my Top 25 Most Played list on my iPhone.. lol)<br />
<br />
enjoy this month lovelies!<br />

<br />
I started picking out a "word" for the year (and last year was the beginning of that tradition). Almost as a theme for the coming year, and something to ensure what I wanted to achieve that year would come true.<br />
<a href="http://mckennakdesignsdoodles.blogspot.com/2012/01/bring-in-new-year.html">Last year</a>, I chose the word "yes." In the sense, that I was going to "say yes to myself," that I was good enough. This weirdly, played out very well this year. I became more confident (with some slight rough patches) and returned to the land of loving yourself.<br />
This year, however, was slightly hard for me to choose a word. I was unsure what I expected to get out of the coming year, but in the end, I decided that I wanted to be brave, confident, and BOLD.<br />
So, this year is going to be bold. :)<br />
<br />
be ready for my "bold" journey!<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ob5NgkGWQio/UOCbUcMOc0I/AAAAAAAABrI/Rk3koggVYa4/s1600/10+Divergent.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ob5NgkGWQio/UOCbUcMOc0I/AAAAAAAABrI/Rk3koggVYa4/s200/10+Divergent.jpg" width="131" /></a></div>

Now, I started out skeptical about this book. I mean, the plot line is becoming quite cliche in the book world (boy loves girl, girl loves boy, for some reason they can't be together, throw in a few things supernatural, and voila!) However, after a friend of mine talked my ear off about how <i>great</i> this one was, I gave.<br />
In the end, the book was quite good. To me it still followed a very similar plot line to the <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Matched-Trilogy-box-Ally-Condie/dp/0525426264/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1356897368&sr=1-1&keywords=matched+trilogy">Matched </a></i>series, but all in all, I loved it.<br />
<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: right;">
Now this author drives me up a wall. Even though her books have the right idea, and good plot lines, she (almost) always bores you to death until you just can't keep reading. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
However, this book broke the model and was one of the great books to bring me joy this year. The story line was cute, the characters were great, and you definitely wished you had the fortunate luck of Indigo Skye :) </div>

I don realize I am quite late reading this one, but whatever.<br />
I absolutely love the movie and most of Nicholas Sparks other books, so I got thinking to myself, why exactly haven't I read this one yet?! And it was just as good as I thought it would going to be :)<br />

<div style="text-align: right;">
This one I actually just finished last week, and let me be the first to tell you, this. book. is. amazing. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was slightly leery at first, but after the first chapter, I swear you're hooked. This book has its fair share of suspense (even the ending was a cliffhanger), amazing characters that you learn to love/hate, and actually has a unique story line (a rare find these days).</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The only thing that is stopping me to literally run to get the sequel is the wall of books, I have yet to finish... </div>

This book I completely picked up on a whim. I was in Barnes & Noble with no book list on my phone (shocking, I know!), so I text a friend of mine (also a crazy reader) if she had any recommendations and she sent this back to me with many exclamation points.<br />
You will <i>absolutely, </i>without a single doubt, fall in love with the characters in the book. The authors make it so incredibly easy to love them, so much to the point where you don't want to put the book down and separated from their world. So. Good.<br />

<div style="text-align: right;">
From the beginning, this book has intrigued me. As soon as a I found out that Jodi Picoult wrote this with her 17 year old daughter, I knew I had to read it. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The plot was so out-of-this-world imaginative, it was just down-right genius. We never quite seem to think, what happens when we <i>shut</i> the book, and let me tell you, I so wish this was real life. :) </div>

These last three spots were about the hardest decision I've had to make in a while. However, this book got pushed down to third, while it just as easily could have been number one in any previous year.<br />
I finished this book way back in late summer, and I still have moments when I think back to it. It is one of those books that kind of changes your outlook on power, greed and anger and how they can effect one person. Seriously, it is a must-read.<br />

I honestly have no words on how great this book is. It is magnificently written and so well crafted. I have read this twice in the last two months, and I can honestly say, I would read it again in a heart beat.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I also, unfortunately missed the movie when it was at my local movie theater.. *silently sobs in background*</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This one was really the no-brainer choice for me. I have raved over this book for <i>ages.</i> (I am pretty sure I mentioned this in not one, but <i>four </i>previous blog posts) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It is so cheesy, and worn-out to say this, but it will literally change your life. I view things differently and still think about that world. I wish to be Hazel, I want a boyfriend like Augustus, and I swear, they will never leave my heart. </div>

John Green is quite the genius. :) </div>

This past year has been pretty much a roller coaster In October, my family went through a huge change that basically turned everything in my life, upside down. And since the holidays are sort-of, kind-of the worst times of the year when you have experience a massive change, my mother & I were determined to make a good, new tradition.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G5mIRjnSx_s/UN3r3O_GarI/AAAAAAAABpg/q9jlh1F0qi4/s1600/christmas+295.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-G5mIRjnSx_s/UN3r3O_GarI/AAAAAAAABpg/q9jlh1F0qi4/s400/christmas+295.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>

<br />
We needed something to symbolize letting go and something to hope for. So, we bought five red balloons and five green. Each of the red symbolize something we planned to let go off in the new year, and each of the green stood for everything we hoped to see in the future. We then released them over the ocean.<br />
For myself, it was incredibly emotional and healing. The idea of sending them away, and looking forward to something was just what I needed.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">However, one thing we may have looked over was the fact that it was only 30 degrees out and there was almost no sun... We froze, but it was kind of worth it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, the holidays turned to not be so bad after all. We created new tradition let go of awful feelings and are moving in a good direction for the new year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who has been through a time of loss and bleakness. It helps greatly, and you start to feel yourself again :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
So, I will leave you with what has become my moral over this year: Sometimes you just need to twirl :)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did something crazy. Well, okay crazy for me that is. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lately I have been utterly obsessed with ANY type of colored hair. Seriously, if you have a primary color in your hair, beware because I will most likely be dying for a picture. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A friend (she's also a blogger! go <a href="http://sunshineandcashmere.blogspot.com/">check her out</a>!) and I were watching the X Factor a few weeks ago, and we <i>flipped</i> over Britney's hair during judges' homes week, when it had the pink & blue ombre thing going on. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And so it all began.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UHZvlAaSdlI/ULgFrvSJHlI/AAAAAAAABjA/sFuP1oIP9ks/s1600/portraits3+242.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UHZvlAaSdlI/ULgFrvSJHlI/AAAAAAAABjA/sFuP1oIP9ks/s400/portraits3+242.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We made the plans, and it was set! I made probably, the most impulsive decision of my life (well, I did consider chickening out before.. but I just couldn't)</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We spent hours bleaching, dyeing, jamming out, and washing until FINALLY we had blue hair! And let's be real for a sec, I was completely obsessed with it. I literally took over 200 photos in less then 24 hours...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cfo79TK4FEI/UMtzqhMklpI/AAAAAAAABlI/2wx73mg5aHs/s1600/portraits3+217.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cfo79TK4FEI/UMtzqhMklpI/AAAAAAAABlI/2wx73mg5aHs/s400/portraits3+217.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then... the night mare set in.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After only three days, the blue had faded to the ugliest shade of grey-ish green and I was forever depressed. :( I looked like all that & a bag of chips for only 72 hours and I didn't want to re-dye my hair again (it had already been dried out quite a bit the first time).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I discovered this <a href="http://www.aveda.com/product/7636/17161/Collections/Pure-Plant/Clove-Shampoo/index.tmpl">shampoo</a> & <a href="http://www.aveda.com/product/7636/16784/Collections/Pure-Plant/Clove-Color-Conditioner/index.tmpl">conditioner</a> by Aveda, which puts the natural brown tones back into your hair without dyes or unnatural materials, and it is MY NEW BEST FRIEND. My hair has almost to it's natural color WITHOUT dye. So my friends, if you have this awful experience, buy this shampoo.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mSgwzCd-FDU/ULgFvnFMxnI/AAAAAAAABjI/B-nxhg1u68Y/s1600/portraits3+307.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mSgwzCd-FDU/ULgFvnFMxnI/AAAAAAAABjI/B-nxhg1u68Y/s400/portraits3+307.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, even though I was pretty sad it only lasted for three days, I am proud to say I was able to cross something off of my bucket list! Number 4 was "Dye my hair blue/purple/green, even if only for a little while." :) and that made me very happy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So until next time lovelies, </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I may or may not have missed a month (or two, or maybe even four) of doing my currently posts.. I love doing these so I am so sad that I didn't keep them going! So let's just dive right in, shall we? :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>What's New; </b>My life experineced a <i>HUGE</i> change about two weeks ago, so about everything right now is "new." Not in the sense that I have to start over & crap, but more in the sense of having to start new routines, traditions and finding new things to do with myself. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But on a happier note, I have been starting to truly act myself lately. Wearing flower crowns, laughing freely, and telling jokes when I think they're funny. Cheesy I know, but it's been a while since I have felt like <i>me</i> all the time. :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Reading; </b><i>What you are about to read may shock your ears, so continue with caution. </i>I started to fall out of love with reading. Yup, you read that completely right. I was shocked too at first, wondering why o'why couldn't I just sit down and read for hours like I used to? However, I am slowly crawling back to the old love. :) Let us see, I just finished <a href="http://www.jamespatterson.com/">James Patterson</a>'s new novel, "Confessions of a Murder Suspect" which was so. Freaking. Good. Seriously, I couldn't put it down and when I did, I swear I expereinced withdrawls from not being inside of Tandy Angel's brain. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am now reading <a href="http://debcaletti.com/archives/643">Deb Caletti's new novel, "The Story of Us." </a>I am so on the fence with this writer. If you have read here you may understand, some of her books are OUT OF THE WORLD FANTASTIC and then some are just "eh" and then some are just flat out boring. So let us all cross our fingers that this one is going to be good. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Watching; </b>Well, what I <i>haven't </i>been watching would probably be a shorter list. Project Runway (CHRISTOPHER SHOULD HAVE WON. Okay, rant over.), Covert Affairs, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders (I cannot believe I just admitted to watching that show), and much, much more that I will probably remember as soon as I stop typing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Thinking About; </b>The Future. I know, so cliche but as aforementioned in the begin of this post, a recent shaking-up of my life has lead me to plan ahead like a maniac and worry like a maniac as well. Let's hope these thoughts quickly faaade. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also have been thinking a ton about the pending election. People are seriously becoming <i>crazy </i>over this, so I thought I better be keeping myself (some-what) educated about what's going on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Eating; </b>Smoothies, smoothies and more smoothies. I am an addict. Legit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also, I have been an <i>extreme </i>addict of Quaker's Popped rice cake/chip thingys.. They. Are. So. Darn. Good. How could I not have discovered them before now?! My favorite flavors are Sweet Chili and Ranch. Sooo gooooood ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am at the age where I just look stupid dressing up without a party to attend and trick-or-treating is <i>definitely </i>out of the question, considering I wanted to go as Nicki Minaj this year.. I swear I'm not a sketch. I just need a rewind button :)</div>

However, on that note, I will admit that I have been slowly slipping back into my love for crappy pop music. *Shudder* I know, so scary. But in my defense, my music taste is bipolar: one day Indie alternative and Top 40, the next.</div>

It's no secret that I have been lusting over red hair for about.. forever! So, when I saw her gorgeous Ariel-the-Disney-Princess red hair, spot on makeup and retro with a dash of Audrey Hepburn style, I had my newest style icon. If I had discovered her this summer she would have<i> easily</i> made my Style Icon of this decade.<br />
So, since I missed the boat on adding her to my <a href="http://www.mckennakdesignsdoodles.blogspot.com/2012/07/my-style-icons-through-centuries.html">Style Icons Through the Ages</a>, I decided to create a Ariana Grande post(s) all on it's own! I add the yes, because I am going to be doing a series of posts for this Style Icon; today is make-up, and I will be adding hair, and style to the series as the week progresses! Stay tuned! :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BJdWFlPBWLQ/UI2t_sghsHI/AAAAAAAABfE/9j8IC8C8skA/s1600/Ari.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BJdWFlPBWLQ/UI2t_sghsHI/AAAAAAAABfE/9j8IC8C8skA/s1600/Ari.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I decide to start the series off with the most fun: her makeup. Seriously, it always looks picture perfect, and due to the fact that she just made a YouTube tutorial on her exact makeup routine, it was so easy to find! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. She always starts by filling in her lashes, with some individuals. Personally, I think a full-set of faux lashes is just too much, so I am all for the singles. She didn't mention the exacts she uses but I you can virtually find them anywhere; the ones I love are <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/napoleon-perdis-poppy-individual-faux-eyelashes/3269812?cm_cat=datafeed&cm_ite=napoleon_perdis_'poppy'_individual_faux_eyelashes:529415&cm_pla=makeup:women:lash&cm_ven=Linkshare&siteId=Hy3bqNL2jtQ-Go7ivnNDo8l.aeicnz9RCQ">here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. She uses RCMA foundation mixed with a moisturizer (<a href="http://www.target.com/p/aveeno-ultra-calming-daily-moisturizer-spf-15-4-oz/-/A-11047520?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&AFID=Google_PLA_df&LNM=%7C11047520&CPNG=Health+Beauty&kpid=11047520&ci_gpa=pla&ci_sku=11047520">my favorite</a>) to prevent cakey-ness. I have never used the <a href="http://rcmamakeup.net/Foundations/Foundations.html">RCMA foundations</a> but it's pretty cheap, and <a href="http://www.sephora.com/matifying-compact-foundation-P190025?skuId=1011147">this one</a> is a close alternative.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. I freaking love t<a href="http://www.sephora.com/hoola-P290636?om_mmc=Googlepla&_requestid=42976&cm_mmc=us_search-_-GG-_-pla-_-{keyword}&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=513234">his bronzer</a>. It is seriously, one of the best you can buy that doesn't a) make you orange, b) get clumpy throughout the day or c) make your face too shiny. It's some-what of a splurge for a bronzer, but trust me, it's worth it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. <a href="http://www.urbandecay.com/24-7-glide-on-eye-pencil/122,default,pd.html">Urban Decay's eyeliners</a> are probably the best there is on the market right now. They glide on super easy and <i>never </i>smudge. Seriously, one night I was out late & didn't remove my makeup, and when I woke up the next day it looked like it hadn't moved at all. I wear it in the color "Underground" and she wears it in the color "Corrupt" which was discontinued recently.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
5. Too Faced <a href="http://makeup.apothica.com/Too-Faced-Natural-Eye-Duo-Cocoa-Puff-%26-Honey-Pot.html">eye shadows</a> have slowly become the only ones I use; they stay on <i>forever</i> and look so professional! She uses the the duo palette in the colors "Honey Pot" and "Cocoa Puff."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
6. I have never been a fan of the Clinique mascaras personally, but she raves about their <a href="http://www.clinique.com/product/1606/5416/Makeup/Mascara/High-Impact-Mascara/index.tmpl">high impact mascara</a> so I might have to give them a try again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
7. The original <a href="http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=27213&catid=183853&aid=338666&aparam=27213">Chapstick</a> is like, a staple to my makeup regimen. Duh.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
8. I am always a slacker when it comes to lip liner. If I don't absolutely need it, I usually skip it. However, Ariana uses the <a href="http://inglotcosmetics.com/74.soft.precision.lipliner.lips/product/10649">Inglot lipliner in color 74</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
9. I. Am. Obsessed. With. This. Lip. Color. Being known for her ever-amazing red lips, I was shocked to hear that Ariana usually wears <a href="http://www.drugstore.com/maybelline-superstay-14hr-lipstick-fuchsia-forever/qxp394559">Maybelline's Fushia Forever lipstick</a>. BRB, heading to the store to buy it now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
10. Last but not least, is her blush. She wears MAC's Powder Blush in the color Pink Swoon. And that is just what I did for it.. swoon! So, gorg, I might just be heading to get this one as well :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also, if you would like to see Ariana put on this makeup routine for yourself and check out her amazing singing covers while you're there, you can find her YouTube channel <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/osnapitzari">here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
stay lovely, lovelies <3</div>

I used to be a complete addict of this website, constantly <a href="http://pinterest.com/chnesefood4less/">pinning </a>my favorite looks, lusting over all of the homemade-chic, and being inspired. I slowly grew out of my initial love of the whole thing, but when I checked it recently, I was hooked by the first glance.<br />
I thought I would share some of my favorites I have completely obsessing over and wanting to buy with you this Friday :) Since there is so much crap I love on this website, I separated my favorites (trust me, it wasn't even easy to pick this few) into categories; clothes, shoes, bags, jewelry & geekery. enjoy!<br />

1. I have been obsessed with everything geometric lately. Triangle rings, tattoos, cups, iPhone cases, shirts- I love 'em all. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/108640149/sheer-black-shirt-geometric-mesh-inserts">This shirt</a> has a subtle & chic touch geometric to add to your closet.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. I have been in a love/hate relationship with red forever. (Let us not think about my obnoxious red walls that I <i>had </i>to have..) But <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/63928885/red-pure-cashmere-balloon-long-sleeves?ref=sr_gallery_1&ga_search_query=pure+red+cashmere+balloon&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_type=all">this coat</a>, brings me to the good side of red.

2. WWII <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/SteampunkCouture?ref=ss_profile">Steampunk Couture</a> Booties. How could you go wrong? (these were very unfortunately sold out shortly after I looked at them :/)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. Canary Yellow Combat Boots. Seriously. What has my life been without these beauties?. (also sold out. I blame myself for pinning them so many times...)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. As a self-proclaimed Pixar anything addict, I don't even have words for <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/105621269/custom-hand-painted-shoes-disneys-up?ref=sr_gallery_6&ga_search_query=Disney+Up&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_ref=auto1&ga_search_type=all">these</a>.

4. I have been kind of drawn to skulls lately. Anything a little bit edgy while still keeping the girl look I love, has been a must for my closet.<a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/106306594/floral-skull-canvas-tote-bag-gothic?ref=sr_gallery_1&ga_search_query=floral+skull+canvas+tote&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_type=all"> This bag</a> is a prefect mixture of skull & ladylike flowers.</div>

However, this time I am doing specfic artists or albums because some of these would be virtually impossible to choose a single song.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lZVb-GKJJ_c/UGdgopeFlFI/AAAAAAAABYM/YSjoDGMiYSY/s1600/Maroon+5+-+One+More+Night.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lZVb-GKJJ_c/UGdgopeFlFI/AAAAAAAABYM/YSjoDGMiYSY/s200/Maroon+5+-+One+More+Night.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
They do it again. I have been a Maroon 5-fan since "She Will Be Loved" and I don't think they are going to produce anything I <i>don't </i>love. I can legit listen to all of these songs for hours without getting bored. So. Good. My favorite tracks are "One More Night" and "Sad."<br />
Check them oooout.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zV4DintmiuM/UGdgpOmgyfI/AAAAAAAABYU/wVrcQB7OapI/s1600/Mumford+&+Sons.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="175" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zV4DintmiuM/UGdgpOmgyfI/AAAAAAAABYU/wVrcQB7OapI/s200/Mumford+&+Sons.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
This pick is probably cheating, because this record hasn't left my record player since I got it last Christmas. However, I <i>cannot</i> stop listening to them. Marcus' voice, mixed with their crazy-but-amazing style of strumming a guitar is just pure genius. Their new single, "I Will Wait" is so addicting and so s-o-g-double-d good ;)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hBvTozVM-uw/UGdgp1sTS8I/AAAAAAAABYc/bK0dak0nZSM/s1600/Queen.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="185" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hBvTozVM-uw/UGdgp1sTS8I/AAAAAAAABYc/bK0dak0nZSM/s200/Queen.png" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
This one is probably, also a cheating pick. But c'moooon, its Queen! My aunt was the one who distilled my love of the 80's and especially Queen in my blood and I don't think there's a way back.<br />
Almost every time autumn rolls around, I find myself humming "Bohemian Rhapsody," and strutting around in baggy sweaters, "Under Pressure" jamming in my head.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9yiKjKKbvDo/UGdgqRwriwI/AAAAAAAABYk/mlqVggTSJDQ/s1600/bob.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9yiKjKKbvDo/UGdgqRwriwI/AAAAAAAABYk/mlqVggTSJDQ/s200/bob.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
I am not that much of a rap fan. I mean, I like to listen to the occasional Eminem once in a while but never anything to the point of this. B.O.B. takes an almost Indie-sounding tune and makes it hip, current, and oh-so-catchy. Favs; "Both of Us" (featuring the ever-wonderful Taylor Swift and "Outta My Mind" (featuring the ever-cray-cray Nicki Minaj."<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Yes, yes, this was on my summer playlist as well. But I legit have not even come close to getting sick of hearing his voice.. Soothing, yet masculine and words that describe every feeling you've ever had perfectly, Ed Sheeran is a master at what he does. I can't even tell you my favorite songs, due to the fact I listen to them all on a daily basis. (Obsessed Status; 5 Bagillion)<br />

<br />
No brainer. I am such a P!nk addict, that there was no question in my mind that her new (awesome) album would be on this list.<br />
In. Love.<br />
I have no words.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This last one is kind of a "wild-card" pick so to say, for me. When I heard their song "Tongue Tied" on the radio, I found myself humming it until I annoyed everyone around me & I finally listened to their other songs about a month ago. I'm am slowly getting hooked.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A couple weekends ago, I went vintage shopping. If you know me at all, you will know that thirfting/vintage shopping/digging through bins of awesome retro crap (whatever you want to call it), is one of my all-time favorite things to do. So, when my <a href="http://www.extravagantpurse.blogspot.com/">grandmother</a> brought up the idea of spending the majority of our weekend browsing some of our favorite vintage locations, I couldn't resist. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k3juah2ajTw/UGdVn6Bf8bI/AAAAAAAABVE/Pdk-XdSsK1E/s1600/SAM_1391.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k3juah2ajTw/UGdVn6Bf8bI/AAAAAAAABVE/Pdk-XdSsK1E/s320/SAM_1391.JPG" width="240" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DoMfAJvHg0Y/UGdVtr-mEOI/AAAAAAAABVU/ARnHtMGk8Yo/s1600/SAM_1393.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DoMfAJvHg0Y/UGdVtr-mEOI/AAAAAAAABVU/ARnHtMGk8Yo/s320/SAM_1393.JPG" width="227" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>clothing info; denim top // maurices, scarves // vintage ;), jean vest // silver jeans co.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>on my nails // brash red hot & revoln god coin</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
now, the three major things I gravitate towards <i>anywhere </i>vintage-y, are clothes, records and books. Hands down. This one particular trip, I hadn't planned on finding much- maybe a new book to curl up with or a nice frame- but boy, was I wrong. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found one of my best vintage finds.. EVER.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
I found these unbelievable scraves in a little basket labeled "$3 Scarves."<br />
I went mental.<br />
I mean, look at them! They are gorg-e-ous and there was <i>no</i> way in this Universe that I was going to leave them there :) Its kind of cool when you find something you weren't even looking for and it brightens up your life (and your wardrobe!).<br />
<br />
I challenge you to find your "<a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/serendipity?__utma=1.1283612748.1348949762.1348949762.1348949762.1&__utmb=1.2.10.1348949762&__utmc=1&__utmx=-&__utmz=1.1348949762.1.1.utmcsr=google|utmccn=(organic)|utmcmd=organic|utmctr=(not%20provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=260919821">Serendipitous</a>" moment in something as simply as two really cheap, vintage scarves. <3<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
okay.<br />
<div>
I am such a bad blogger. I know. </div>
<div>
I promised <a href="http://mckennakdesignsdoodles.blogspot.com/2012/09/my-return.html">my return</a> about a month ago, posted a few things and then I was back to square one. </div>
<div>
Nowhere. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I got thinking one day, I didn't want to look back in a year, and say "Remember when I was a blogger?" So this time, I am SERIOUSLY returning. I have posts planned out, and ready to go. And I am planning to take time out of each day to get AT LEAST a post done a day. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, I PINKY PROMISE on all the Boybands in the world that I will be popping up everyday. :) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You'll probably get sick of me ;)</div>

However, now that I am slowly feeling better, but I have absolutely no energy to do anything else, here it sit, blogging.<br />

As I am <i>sure</i> you know by now (seriously, I'd be sick of myself by now), I working my way out of my self-consciousness and making my self feel beautiful and like <i>myself</i> again. So, on a day when I received horrible treatment from who I thought was my best friend, I forced myself to get out of the house (and my self-pity) and have a good day.<br />
Now, the mall used to be my least favorite place to be, but I got brave and went by myself. Yup, you read that right. I am the type of person who loves to stuff with people not by myself, and I sometimes need another person to bounce feelings, ideas, and impulsive buys off of. But, I told myself I would have fun and I learned two key things.<br />

Numbah 1. Shopping by yourself can be hard. I am the type of person who second guesses almost <i>anything, </i>so when you're by yourself, you don't have that extra person to ask,"Does this look okay?" or "I'm not even sure I like it.. Whabout you?"<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
However, after I got used to this, I rather liked it. It got me to try on crazy things I wouldn't even look at with friends (and I ended up liking them), and I made my own decisions without using someone else as the excuse for why I didn't buy them.</div>

Numero Dos. Being on a mall date with yourself, can in fact, be fun. At first you compare yourself to the cut couples and the girls that looked like the stepped off of a magazine cover, but once you get in the groove of I-am-going-to-be-happy-and-try-on-anything-while-jamming-out-to-One-Direction (yes, One Direction) mood, you <i>have fun. </i><br />
<i> </i>Aaand, I felt incredibly secure in my own skin, and weirdly, I also felt beautiful.<br />

I am going to add in a bonus life-lesson here, and say, Sephora's is an incredibly dangerous place to be when your by yourself. You want <i>EVERYTHING. </i>Trust me. Even the most insensible color of lipstick calls your name.<br />
<br />
There. Extra bonus, done.<br />

I have decided that I am going to have a weekly date with myself. Whether that be at the mall, coffee shop, book store, or a movie, I can't wait to have my own mini-adventures. :) So, be on the look out for "Brave Wednesday" posts <3<br />
<br />
all my love,<br />
