an upbeat tune for this dreary friday.

The List

One thing that's wonderful about Pinterest, is pinning all of these items that you swear you'll purchase; or you make a commitment with yourself to be more crafty, or come the holidays you'll be making snowman cupcakes, reindeer cookies and anything else that you can convert into a Christmas themed food.

So by the end of the day Friday, I was pretty friggen bored at work all done with my work, and decided I'd start pinning: my Christmas list, of course. Just because you're 25, doesn't mean you're too old for a list.

I started pinning these staple items that I'll obviously need for winter, key winter beauty trends, and of course unique gift wrapping ideas that I really, really want to stick to!

The problem is, I'm an old fashion write-it-down kind of gal, and I always forget what I pinned. Does this happen to you? No? Well, look at you.

I thought, maybe if I blog about my list, it'd help to remember. And if anyone else has a system that works for them besides like I don't know, just remembering?? let me know. Below are some looks I'm currently obsessing over.

What I Love About Sunday

Getting Unready

each night, after i've finally finished my after work errands, i look forward to getting unready. as a beauty lover at heart - getting ready is one of my favorite things to do. but to be honest, sometimes it sucks and it can be the last thing you want to do.
getting unready kind of caps of the day for me, you know, like the last step before getting into bed and sinking into full relaxation mode. i cannot completely relax until i know my skin is taken care of for the night.
below i captured my getting unready products/process. while i sometimes will swap out certain products, it usually stays the same.
how do you get unready?

one good thing about streaming listening to music at work, is discovering new artists.
