Necklace or Headpiece?

Here comes the crazy train that is myself!
Yeah, I know I'm a Beast!
 (Just in case you can't tell... that's sarcasm!) :)  

So this post morphed into something completely different than when I planned it out in my head!!!! 
It started as a sun kissed barely there makeup tutorial (I might still do that some other time!)
Then as I was picking out my outfit I was like "This is too cute not to show it!" 
Then I decided to do a center part! 
That was the pivotal moment when I decided to wear this Coral/Rose J. Crew necklace as a Headpiece!

Of course it started out like a normal OOTD post for me, with serious looks and very little eye contact.
That's all fine and dandy but sometimes you just have to be silly! 
I mean muscle pictures?! I haven't done those in years!!! 
Does anyone else remember the scrawny kid from The Little Giants?
Yeah, I felt like him but not so scrawny! 

I guess what I'm trying to say is one doesn't have to take themselves so seriously all of the time!
Wear a necklace on your head! 
Wear barely there makeup!
Wear a goofy smile!

I recently wore a cropped cardigan backwards over a black and white polka dotted dress...
It worked so well that way! 
Don't let the idea of how things "Should be" get in your way!
Think outside of the box!

I'm not a serious person or a silly person or a cool person or an awkward person.
I'm all of them combined! (I'm pretty cool!)
Everyone is mixed, it's unfair to classify someone just by the way that we perceive them!  

Whether you know me in person or you just like to read my blog.
I want you to meet all of the parts that fit together seamlessly  
to make up who I am!
An old soul with a cheesy sense of humor who has a love for life
 and an appreciation for all of it's beauty!

Instinct

 My Niece

Tomorrow is Mother's day.

My Mother is the oldest of my Grandmothers four girls.
She made my Grandmother a Mother for the first time.

 Megan the oldest sister of five made our Mom a Mother for the first time.

Finally this is the little girl who made my oldest sister a Mother for the first time.
Megan's had two little boys since.
My sister is good at many things, but Making pretty babies is her specialty!


My niece is staying the night with us. 
I put a little bit of makeup on her (Clear mascara and sheer blush)
and tied a scarf around her hair for a fun impromptu photo shoot
for her Mommy. 
She's the one who decided to play mommy in the photos. 
It's just instinctual.
  
Happy Mother's Day to current Mothers, future Mothers,
 The Mothers that have passed on but leave their love here with us
and to single dads who are Father and Mother.

Coral Blossoms, Coral Lips

 Who doesn't love a good Sun Flare? 

Usually I'm pretty content with a nude lip but today I felt like matching this AMAZING 
Coral rose necklace.
Seriously this thing is so much fun! This is the first time I've worn it, 
I think it's safe to say it will not be neglected!

The shirt is Cold water Creek.
It's one of my Go to pieces that I can just throw on! 
Everyone should have a go to for those days you're running late and need to look polished! 


As for the Lipstick it's Maybelline's Coral Crush.
I'm honestly not crazy about the formula but the color is fun!
I dab it on so it doesn't cake!
(That's the reason I'm not completely sold on it.) 

The name Coral Crush makes me think of Hawaii and so did the flower
in the last photo, sorry for my silly word association but now I want to go to Hawaii! 
Who's with me?! Just kidding! 

I'll Settle for Seaside though! ;)
