NOTD: Julep 'Millie'

Julep Millie.
Julep Millie is described as a "vintage indigo creme."  I got Millie in the May upgrade box, which I reviewed here.  I'm glad to have this in my collection.  This is a great blue that doesn't lean purple at all and can be worn throughout the year.  Millie is a one coater, and it kind of smells like apples during application.  I don't know why though.  It just does.    
See you next time!

Julep 'Set the Stage' Collection!

Hello again.  I'm sorry I've been away for a couple of weeks, but I think I'm finally ready to share my thoughts on the May Julep Set the Stage collection!

OOTD: Tropical Punch

It took me a whole three weeks to come up with a punny title for this Outfit of the Day, which is about how long it's been since we've had normal, hot weather that you would expect for Florida in late spring.  Seriously, what the hell is going on?  It was COLD and windy outside last night.  It is May 7th and I am without a tan.  GEEZ.  Anyways, tropical prints are usually popular around summertime, so here is my take on the trend!

NOTD: Julep 'Zelda'

Happy Tuesday, everybody!  Remember, like four days ago when I was bitching because my Julep upgrade shipped late?  Well I actually received it that afternoon!  I want to do a more thorough review of the box later (which was awesome, by the way), but in the meantime, here is a swatch of one of the colors, Zelda!

Window Shopping: 1920's Edition

So, I'm still (im)patiently waiting for my May Julep Maven Box; you know, the one inspired by the Roaring Twenties?  Along with the release of The Great Gatsby this month, it looks like everyone has the Jazz Age on the brain!  After putting on a chocolate mud mask and doing a very poorly received (by my cats) Al Jolson impression, I decided instead to look for inspiration from some of my favorite plus sized apparel websites.  Enjoy!

May Ipsy Sneak Peeks!

Hey guys!  It's that time of the month again.... for Ipsy sneak peeks!  (I'm here all night folks.)  May is looking like it's going to be a great month for Ipsy; the first sneak peek is a FULL SIZE Zoya nail polish!  By the way, don't you just love the flowers in the sneak peek photos?  I think they are so sweet.

Nail polish!!!
