All of Your Valentines Needs Right Here-ish

Ok, I am not usually a fan of Valentines Day. My friend Sherina used to call it Individualists Day. She may be on to something. You don't need a special someone to make this day amazing. No no no, my pet. I've been Valentine-less enough to know that now V Day evening has been lost wearing fuchsia lipstick and eating Smarties shaped like hearts while watching Deathproof. Zöe Bell is a bad ass!
Single or hooked up, this is what you need to make you smile, even though you want to beat the crap outta the bitch that stole yo man. That's a whole other blog post though.

The Beauty
Benefit has always been a "go to" brand for me, but especially when I want to doll up the *ole mug. Their Creaseless Cream Shadow is a pearly light pink that wakes up the eyes and acts as a great canvas for powder shadows. Pack on some of their They're Real mascara and you're in for a sexual evening. Looks wise! Not that! So triflin.
The only perfect topper to the bold red or fuchsia pout is a pink gloss like Cultured from MAC. That's what I got myself for Xmas. I'm so damn thoughtful.

*Autocorrect thought I meant olé. Schnarf!

The Bling

Tanus Designs gorgeous statement jewelry caught my eye on Instagram and it was all over from there. This is one of the most lovely heart pieces I've ever owned and truly an awesome gift to give yourself. Especially if your single. Single girls deserve gifts on Valentines Day! 
I think the fact that Tanus Designs has gorgeous jewelry that is VERY reasonably priced, you can afford to be your own sweetheart on V Day, or surprise a friend. Sometimes just a pretty piece of arm candy can brighten a stressful day! What am I saying? Jewelry solves every problem! Go check out tanusdesigns.com !!
(Bracelet below the heart bracelet, isn't Tanus Designs. It's my ratty Gorjana and Griffin Bali Bracelet that I wore and continue to wear to death.)
If you want a sweet piece for Valentines day, you're on your own. I got me a man and I'm holding on to him with my vice grip! Hi Scott!! Anyway, what was I saying...oh yeah, if you are looking for something simple but sparkles, my other new favorite in the jewelry world is Cate & Chlöe. This is a very simple chick necklace that is weightless and blings up a simple tshirt and jeans ensemble. Or, ya know, a velour hoody and pant set that your hot man got you for Xmas. (Lowers voice) Hi Scott!
But really tho, the reason I love Cate & Chlöe is the simple elegance of each piece matched with their price points. Like I said, if you are single and hating it, spoil yourself! One of the best gifts I ever got for myself was a chunky sterling silver bracelet all my girlfriends were getting from their boyfriends. Well, momma earned it her way....by crying and screaming into a pillow then buying it myself. Ching!

The Fashion
Funny thing happened at a Target stores accessories section, then later when I got online. I'm not usually a gloves and scarves lady, but I want all of these.
The whiskey colored leather gloves with the love knot are to die for and translate well through all seasons and the black leather gloves with the bow tie ruching is chic-ety chic chic. And then chic some more. 
The red skull scarf is another all seasoner. It's ageless too and would be fierce on my grandma as much as it would on moi! It's basically the poor girls Alexander McQueen. I would've loved a Target Collection from him! RIP AMcQ!!
I've been participating in the Gwynnie Bee clothing rental thang for awhile and while I've been generally happy with the service, I'm ecstatic over finding a new designer that gives it up to the curvy ladies in the room! 
Jessica Howard designed this little piece of heaven right here. I want to wear it and eat cheesecake and then drink too much and then act like a slore. Not really, but you get the gist: I like the damn dress!
Check out more of her awesome dresses, especially the bandage dresses. You read that right.

What's on your Valentines Day wish list??? Let's talk! Mo9191976@aol.com drop me a question and I might put it in my post!
