this is coming a day late, but to everyone who celebrates christmas i hope yesterday was a wonderful day. i spent it with family, curled up in front of the fire, watching basketball games and christmas movies… (shoutout to the knicks, we were so close boys!) now i just have my fingers crossed that we do get this snowstorm.. it’s never too late for a white christmas!

today i implore all of you to hug your family, your friends, anyone that means something to you. cherish them and embrace them, because life is fleeting and everything can change in an instant. this is a tragedy and my heart breaks for everyone affected today. from the parent to the children who died, to a family member who lost someone, a friend who will never see their friend again. at this time all we can do is pray that these wounds will one day heal, and that the hearts left broken will mend.

i’m going to be a bit m.i.a. due to finals, so to tide you all over until the next post (and to give me something nice to look at), here are some wonderful holiday photos. i don’t mind the lead up to finals, because i tend to either study for long periods of time and then procrastinate/bake for the rest. sea salted chocolate chip cookies, anyone? yes, this may be productively procrastinating, but what’s a girl to do?

“a girl can’t read that sort of thing without her lipstick.”- holly golightly
since the name of my blog involves lipstick i figured i have to include it in a post. to go along with that quote, i put together a few must-reads… some are favorites, some i’m re-reading, some i have yet to read, but all are recommended. yes, i matched lipstick to the books but don’t worry, they’re just some of my favorite shades. these shades also happen to remind me of the book they’re paired with, so i guess i have a color connection? pardon the cheesy joke…

i love this quote, plain and simple. sometimes in life you can try to make everyone happy, please everyone, but in the end you yourself won’t be happy, or true to yourself. finals are coming up (along with christmas!!) but during this time i need to take these words to heart. it may be a bit straightforward, but it gets the point across.
so as an ode to “following your intuition” here is a tribute to shoes, and legs, and walking in the literal sense, but try to envision the figurative message i’m trying to convey..
