Happy Monday (it's Tuesday now), readers. Here's some clothes, shoes, watches, earrings, make-up, and other stuff to look at instead of work ;) At least.. that's what I'm doing. Shhhh

I love this general shade of pink. It can be worn soft and romantic with nude shoes, or paired with combat boots and a leather jacket and still look gorgeous. I need more of this in my life.

Speaking of Spring..

Coral is back in all of it's glory. I love all the color coordinating possibilities. Blues, greens, pinks, purples, silvers, and golds!!

Sorry about the quality of that collage. :( But, I feel too lazy to do anything about it.

Do any of you buy things not because you need them, but because of the way they're packaged? No? I know I'm not the only one. 

My absolute favorite brand of cosmetics to look at and purchase, hands down, has to be Benefit Cosmetics. They have such a cute pink 50s vibe about their website and most of their packages. Everything is so girly and fun to show off. I like how they use mostly all lower case for their product titles combined with neat modern type faces. I've compiled a collage of my collection so far (there's always more on the want list.) I've even marked my favorites if you're thinking about delving into the beneficial world of Benefit. Ya like that? ;)

IN LOVE

I'm wearing benetint on my lips and cheeks in this picture.

It's that time of year! Spring is upon us and we need to put all our heavy coats away in-place of something BRIGHT, LIGHT, & NEW. I know you know what I'm talking about...

It's so hard to choose just one. There are so many fresh new styles and fun colors available for this Spring. I want them all. I am especially loving the coral trench in the image above. If I find one similar for less than the asking price of that one, I'll post it.

We meet again, internet. 

I'm not sure how to word this introduction post, so I'll just go right in with the basics about your writer. My name is Ashley. I will be 22 in April and I've already graduated college and found a job. Go me! I earned a Bachelors Degree in Graphic Design last December from The Art Institute in Pittsburgh, I currently work at an advertising agency in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. 

I have, as far as I can remember, always been artistically inclined. I was introduced to the Adobe Suite in 9th grade and ever since then it's what I've been doing. After graduating college I decided to move back to my home town to be with family and my boyfriend. I wont go into the sappy details because that's not what this is about! 

I've kept many long lost blogs in my day ranging from Xanga, LiveJournal, Blog Spot, Wordpress, Tumblr, etc. I currently have another blog along side this one that is dedicated to make-up looks, but I think I'll stop writing in that one and just incorporate that information into this. 

I am a make-up, clothing, nail-polish, hair product, jewelry, food, design JUNKIE. I literally love everything but I can't keep it all to myself so I shall, from this day forward, spill my daily ray of internet finds, shopping excursions, personal outfits, make-up looks, new fonts, and whatever else I manage to stumble upon, to you, my lovely readers. 

Thanks for stopping by and looking ;)

~Ashley
