Feather Lashes .... I Believe So!!!

I really like the look of feathered eyelashes!!! I am a part time make-up artist and a lot of people I put make-up on like the natural look. But I really want to just do CRAZY dramatic make-up to bring out my inner drag queen in me :) The only time people step out of the box is either for Halloween or Mardi Gras .... lets be different and start wearing feathers on our lashes.






Tomorrow I am going to Sephora to buy some feathered lashes!
I will post pics on my next blog on how it turns out.

Take a Peek into my closet....BETSEY JOHNSON Part #1



Every week I am posting and blogging about my closet ..... but this week is my Betsey Johnson week. I have been a Huge fan of Betsey since 1989 my first visit to her store was in 1991. I always dreamed of working at the Betsey store and in 2004 I became the Assistant Manager at the Betsey Johnson store in the Houston Galleria. Sadly it only lasted a short time but I bought so much stuff. Most of my Betsey collection I either gave away or sold for money ...... and I regret that with all my heart. I saved the good stuff though and here is my collection of her jewelry. Come take a peek :)
















The last photo is retro Betsey from 1999 When they were the yellow store ... before the pink store in the new part of the galleria.

I hope you enjoyed my collection.... next will be my Betsey Johnson shoe collection :)

My really old turtle shell
My bat in resin
My dried up seahorse that stinks if you open the jar ....YUCK!

Art is in the Family

I LOVE my Grandma Rivas ... ever since I was little I remember staring into her paintings and imagining myself there. Her paintings are so real and they take you back to places you have never been. I admire her with all my heart and no wonder why all her Grandchildren are all artist. I love you! Here are a couple of her amazing paintings :)
