I am a sucker for some Havaiana flip-flops, but I may have to reach for the ballet flats more often. Seems like the nail polish is the sticking point with y'all! Okay, sit down in front of the TV with your favorite show on. Trim your nails down to just below the tip of your finger. (The good news is that with the dark, vampy colors that are so in this fall you want short nails!) Paint a coat every other commercial and your done. Buy the quick dry polish and DON"T skimp on the top coat. It will add shine and days to your wear. I also wish I could have added a #6. I NEVER leave the house without concealer under my eyes. Such a difference! Ballet flats are a GREAT one! I am a sucker for some Havaiana flip-flops, but I may have to reach for the ballet flats more often.

In addition to some lip gloss, blush on a little blush, swipe on a little powder, and apply a little mascara. Takes all of 5 minutes tops. Smile!!! A nice smile can also brighten your face! PS - I have to say that I'm so guilty of hardly painting my nails! It's hard to find the time some weeks, and I'd rather have on no polish than chipped and peeling polish. But I'm going to try to get better about this one. Hmmm…. my tips would be:

Manicures just don't happen when left up to me and I can't afford to have someone else do them. I have several lovely scents but we're operating in limbo between two homes (have been for several months and will be for several more) so all my scents are packed in a box. I leave house without earrings even though I probably have more than 100 pairs, shame on me! I got out of the habit of wearing lip gloss when I stopped wearing it around my husband so that we wouldn't have to constantly wipe it off his face, again, shame on me. And finally....I am lost when it comes to styling hair! Sigh, I feel like everything anti-lady. Although, I do love me a fabulous pair of shoes! Does that count for anything? sadly…I don’t have any and I think I fail on every single one of yours above on a regular basis.
