Spend Your Holidays in Dark Lipstick


Well, I hope you all had a very merry Christmas! Mine was good! I got an eyeshadow palette, new glasses, and a Merry Christmas text from someone I don't know named Ellison. I also saw the Hobbit (it was ok), and cooked dinner, and saw my family. My Mom puts on such a great Christmas, really.

What was the best present you guys got?





Finally I have cat eyes! Now I just want some big obnoxious ones :)
I borrowed my sister's lipstick for this, I definitely need to get some of my own. It's Mac. I love matte finish shades, but they don't go on easily for me. I always have to put on chapstick first, and they always accentuate how flakey my lips are. Do you guys ever have that problem? The "amplified" lipsticks are my fave.





I hope you all dressed like a dark princess all week too :)

Dress: UO
Jacket: Jack (old)

Art Lately: Witches


Wow it's been a minute since I shared some art with you guys. With the holidays I didn't have a ton of time to do art for me, but the past couple of months were all about darkness and witchies. Now I've got an itch to experiment with some really bright color combinations. I had been writing out some explanations of the meanings behind my work, but I think I'm over that. Use your imagination.





As always, find my art here, and buy some here.

Slow Warm Winter


 Long time no see, huh, guys? I'm pretty bummed about the amount of posting I've been doing. I've been wearing tons of cute outfits, but they go undocumented because when I get home from work it's dark already. And I get sad light in this house to begin with. But here's one from yesterday.

I've been spending my days at work, where it's been slow because no one wants to buy used clothes as Christmas presents. It's been a very warm December in the Midlands, with the cooler days being in the high 50s, so I've been forgoing the usual winter tights all month. And I've been watching a lot of Inuyasha. lol. Everyone in middle school loved that show (idk if you knew those nerds who drew wolves all the time) but it's actually a really good show? ?





Let's wrap it up with a picture of my kitty, who is actually a model. What a qt.

Blogger Appreciation

I recently did some portraits of a few of my favorite bloggers that I've been following for awhile <3 You guys will probably recognize them, but if you don't, you need to be following them!

Annika of Pineneedle Collective is one of my faves because she has such a cool sense of style that is always interesting to watch, and because she ties all her interests into her blog so you get to read about science, fashion, diys, all in the same place. Plus she's super friendly and creative, and promotes ethical fashion and disability awareness and is an all around role model tbh.


I love Kathryn of Kitsune Kun's blog because she has insane photography skills. Like every time I visit there, she's got some magical photos of Utah or Japan or the Met or something. They're all impeccably styled, but not in the staged photoshoot way, it's just beautiful to see her life and travels through her eyes!

And Kailey of Mermaidens, because she is the cutest. She's def one of the nicest people on the internet, and her blog is always a cotton candy wonderland with just the right amount of edge. I love seeing her modelling for people like Hannah Haley. It's no wonder I'm not the first to paint her, her look is just flawless.

Black Something


I wore this on Black Friday, and was going to post about Black Friday things like how I've got a coupon code for 25% off everything in my shop if you want to buy anything... It's HOLIDAYZ and you can enter it at checkout.

But then I left my computer charger at home, so it became a Black Sunday post, and then I forgot to renew my prescription and have been getting progressively dizzier all week because SSRIs are evidently shit to withdraw from, and now I'm at the point where I don't even know. My pills are in the mail, though.
