DIY Glitter Booties.


I've always loved glitter, sparkly things (diamonds - yes please!), and well, basically anything that catches your eye. There's something just so fun about living in a fantasy land filled with all things shiny. In my world, it's L M N OK to strut in crazy ass disco balls for your daily a.m. iced soy mocha. If you feel like sharing the same morning glory, here's a little glimpse into  how to create fantastical Disco Booties yourself:

1) First find cute, comfortable(!), inexpensive booties. 
Mine are from H&M and cost about $35.


2) Find some spray glitter in the color of your choice.
I picked silver and bought mine from Michael's. 


3) Put masking tape around the areas that you don't want glitterfied.



4) The fumes of the glitter spary are horrendous so make sure you're in a place that well ventilated, like outside. Then spray evenly from about a foot away. Let dry for 15 minutes, then add 1-3 more coats, depending on how sparkly you want your tootsies to be. 

And Voila!

Princesses.


My daughter's Robot Rainbow Hawaiin Hula birthday party was yesterday, and she reminded me that it's more than okay to march to the beat of your own drum. That it's okay to dress up and be silly, have fun, and not take life seriously and to ask for the impossible and make it happen. And so today, I woke up in my own little dreamland, and felt like a princess, so I thought I should dress like one too.
Thanks for always inspiring me, Daisy.  
Here comes the pink, the glitter and the tiara.

My daughter, Daisy, has quite the imagination. She requested a robot, rainbow, Hawaiin hula theme for her second birthday, I kid you not. My husband, Mikie, and I were up for the challenge and made it happen. A little glimpse into her fabulous lil kiddie soiree. 
DJ Lance and Rainbow Hula Robot even made an appearance.

Upon Closer Inspection, I Found Wrinkles...


...not on my face - yet!
But all over my clothes.

You know how the day progresses, and somehow, all your movements have made little creases all over your beloved outfit? D'oh! Why can't all clothes naturally wrinkle free?! Sometimes I wish I had a portable steamer to take everywhere with me. Other times, I wish I produced enough body heat to take care of that little problem. Wouldn't it be cool if your own body heat could release wrinkles in your clothes? Someone needs to cap on that idea - stat!

Sparkle, Sparkle.


Tonight I went out to celebrate one of my amazing, gorgeous, sweet cray cray friend, Dirty D's 30th birthday. I was feeling a little rundown, tired, and just BLAH. But it had been so long since we truly hung out and I was really excited about having dinner with her, just the two of us. I honestly can't remember the last time we did that - perhaps over two years ago? My goodness, how time just flies like a butterfly on speed! So anyhoo, I decided to suck it up and make it happen. 

But first, a disguise! 

Whenever I don't feel my best, I try to look a little snazzy, thus the SPARKLE, SPARKLE.
Sparkles instantly make me feel better 60% of the time, every time.

SPARKLE, SPARKLE

(Sang to the tune of the kids classic, The Diarrhea Song) 

When you're feelin kinda crappy
But gotta go out instead of nappy
Sparkle, Sparkle
Sparkle, Sparkle

If you ate too much grub
and you got some extra lub (handles)
Sparkle, Sparkle
Sparkle, Sparkle

When there's a party party 
But you feel more like farty fart
Sparkle, Sparkle
Sparkle, Sparkle
