About Me

My photo
This make-up artist and esthetician has a (bordering on unhealthy) addiction to all things beauty! No amount of eyeshadows or cream liners will ever be enough! I go giddy for all things girly. Lipgloss might not be able to heal the world, but it can lift a gal's spirits!

Take a Button!

Hats Off to the Preakness!

So our Local Area Baltimore Chevy Dealers & WBAL TV were kind enough to let the Baltimore Chevy Girls experience Preakness 2011! It's been such a fun project to be a part of. Even though I was born & raised in Baltimore- this was my first time at Preakness. What is it known for? Well, besides horses? Hats girleens! Every where I looked, there were hats galore! These lovely ladies were rocking it out & posed with fellow Chevy Girl Lara in her very own commissioned Maryland themed hat!




Here Lara & I are with WBAL TV's Lisa Robinson (L) & Mindy Basara in the yellow hat. We were interviewed about being Chevy Girls on the Go & on a live tv segment! I love this picture, since you can tell Lara & I don't normally wear hats- as we're struggling to see out of ours! In fact, when I got to see myself in the tv segment- you really could only see my mouth most of the time, as my hat was trying to swallow me whole!
This was probably my most favorite fascinator I saw- the photograph doesn't do it justice. It just worked & though it was very artistic- it didn't overwhelm her. The fascinator was by Christine Moore from Hats in the Belfry.



As luck would have it, I found out that Hats in the Belfry had a booth at Preakness so I got to try on my very own Christine Moore fascinator! If this one had been in black instead of navy I seriously would have scooped it up. But, then again maybe it would be to much to wear to work- what do you think? :)


This creation looked almost like a confection! Doesn't she look like a doppelganger of Kristen Dunst? Regardless she was fluffy & fabulous in that hat!


This woman was working it! Bedecked & bedazzled, this vision in purple said she scored her entire ensemble from JC Penny late the night before- who knew?! Don't worry horse lovers out there, I'm promise I'll post more on the actual race, but you know moi- fashion first!




Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M

Preakness Time!


It's Preakness this weekend! Being a Baltimore girl, I thought I would share with you beauties the official drink of this horse race: The Black- Eyed Susan (makes one cocktail)
3/4 ounce Vodka
1 1/4 ounce Early Times Kentucky Whisky
3 ounces sour mix
2 ounces Orange Juice
Shake & serve over ice. Garnish with an orange slice & cherry. Enjoy!
For those of you who prefer a classic Mint Julep while watching your horse races- here you go!
2 cups water
2 cups sugar
8-10 sprigs of fresh mint
Early Times Kentucky Whiskey
Make a simple syrup by boiling the water & sugar together for 5 minutes. Let cool, then add sprigs of mint & refrigerate mixture overnight.
Fill cups with ice, then add 2 ounces of Kentucky Whiskey & one tablespoon of mint syrup to each individual glass. Top with simple syrup, stir & garnish with fresh mint! Cheers to having a great weekend!

Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M
