Like you, I too am obsessed with lip chap. I blame my momma, who would always let me get TWO Flavor Saver Lip Balms whenever she placed an order from the Avon lady when I was a a kid. (Side note: I was also teased for having big MONKEY LIPS back then so now I am like FU HA! ’cause those same bitches probably have to get ‘em injected.) Anyway, when I went to California Adventure last week, I saw this chola bust out with a GIGANTIC lip balm…I have seen these monstrosities before but have never gotten one myself which is ridiculous since it combines my deep love of lip balm with my deep love of GIANT THINGS. That is a LOL in itself. I can’t wait til I’m at a stoplight with my stunna shades on, roll down the window, bust out my GIANT LIP BALM and go to town. IMAGINE? I will bust this out any time, any place. Before making out. “One mome, plz.” Then I proceed to saturate my face with a giant lip balm. (This cotton candy one sounds delish.)

Speaking of GIANT things, here is a video I never posted on here of me writing in a Lisa Frank diary with Star’s giant pencil. (Aw, I miss you and your giant pencil boo!)

Back to the lip balm, the past couple of years my addiction has decreased. I can go to sleep without putting some on but before that was a problem! M’lord! But for those of you who still have a strong addiction, I have found this. Good Luck!

WHAAAAAY CAN’T THIS PICTURE BE OF ME?!?!

I want these Bijules gold serpent nail rings so bad!!!

I want a couple of dem on my fingers, a couple on my toes. I WANNA WERK WIT DAT. But the real reason is so I can be….

In the meantime, I guess I will have to settle for painting my nails gold with this bomb ass Savina nail polish I recently found. Best polish EVER. It’s the same brand as the neon hot pink polish I constantly wear!

Today’s Spy Wear! (I like how I came up with that way late into the game. M’lord I am so slow)

• Betsey Johnson dress
• awesome yellow belt from local shop
• my favorite gold bootz that are getting more and more beaten up by the day!
• Betsey Johnson bag and sunglasses. Love you forevs Betsey!

Such great weather this week!

Miss Dizzy and I

In other news this weekend I have been obsessively listening to Europe (THEY ARE MAJESTIC) and some usual slow jamz. Shaun and I decided we are going to be K.P. and Envyi for Halloween this year. Whenever the gang and I are at a hotel we put on a lil youtube and listen to a lot of LL Cool J and old r&b jams and “Shawty Swing My Way” is on CONSTANT ROTATION. ‘EAR DIS:

Best slow tempo breakdown of your life:

Then I walked ova to him slowly
said I know u don’t know me
but this might be my only
shot at a Tenderoni…

So this costume also means it may finally be the time I get some long, luxurious acrylic nails to get into character. I want them to be dragon status where you can hear me tap tap tapping away on my computer very slowly. I never wanted to get fake nails before because I always had naturally long nails since the fifth grade. Yes diva at age ten, ok? Anyway I think they are amazing and hilar but I am not sure if I can handle that kind of ferociousness. Well maybe for two days. I might have to just dive right in and go for it.  Kind of like when I tried contacts, tampons, and sushi for the first time.

Okay, I’m seriously into this shit right now. Can anyone link me to some fabulous nail art blog where I can look at pictures of these all day?

Bonus: why does this song actually make me SWOON still fourteen years later? HAHA

AND EDIT: I forgot to blast one of my faves!

More detailed pictures of the Hello Kitty for M.A.C. line have been circulating around the beauty blogs lately, helping me to make a decision on what to purchase in about a month when it launches on February 12th! Let’s take a peek courtesy of Specktra, Temptalia, and Beauty Anonymous…

First of all, I love these press shots by Nick Knight. Bows, patent leather and milk. Pretty obvious concept of making Hello Kitty sexy and edgy, but I still loves it.

I used to have this black patent leather Hello Kitty wallet with a hot pink bow that I LOVED (even though it could barely fit an ID card and five dollhairs) and the look of the line reminds me a lot of it. As for the actual makeup colors, I think a lot of them are pretty sweet, especially the silver nail polish. It’s been awhile since I wore that sort of color. I’m digging it. The white is hot too. Thoughts?

I don’t think I’ll be splurging on any accessories like I did with the Fafi line other than the brush holder and maybe the keychain. I’m not into the bags that much. I could probably find a cuter one at an actual Sanrio! What do you HK fanatics think of everything?

PS. This ain’t the first time HK tried to get a ‘lil wild. Aiiii!

I’ve always wanted a pink Christmas tree, so when I found a cute one that was also surprisingly very cheap, I knew I would have fun decorating it. I have bigger plans for it, but this was too hard to resist. What else do you do when you open up your craft drawer and see ten babyfaces smiling at you? They will be watching.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll start over and decorate it with the other Babyface. When will I stop with the 90′s slow jams?

A couple weeks ago my friend Emine took me to get my first macaron at Boule. Macaron not Macaroon. And yes, it was like a piece of cookieburger heaven in my mouth. The rose flavor was my favorite.

This past weekend I finally tried a Boba (I had the coconut milk tea). That experience was long overdue for probably ten years. And yes, it was tasty. It also made me miss Orbitz.

So many first times for things! What could be next? My first durian? I already did that. I’d link you to the picture but it’s not as cute as a face. I promise! Stank ass fruit, OH-KAY!

Emi and I also enjoyed a nice spa day at Cote d’Azur courtesy of the nice people at goldstar.com. It was probably the best massage I have ever had. Usually after a massage, I feel like I got my ass beat and slapped around and sometimes I even leave with bruises, but this one was perfect. I felt very relaxed, yet energized afterwards, and not at all sore or out of it. Am I the only one that usually feels that way after a massage?

I also bought the best perfume in the world. Since I love candy and sweet scents, I was ecstatic to find a fragrance at Anthropologie that smells like Easter to me. That really makes no goddamn sense but you know how I am with the power of scent! It smells like grape and My Little Pony. But it’s called Sweet Pea and Vanilla! It is made by Skeem, which you can find here.

I wish my website was scratch-n-sniff so I could spray it on my screen and you guys could take a good whiff. Maybe Apple can create that feature by the time I get a new laptop?
