photo 3-2if you can’t tell already, that photo above is my bed. my comfy bed (pre-pillows and throw blanket) that gets destroyed every night when i go to sleep. i really don’t know what happens once i fall asleep, but blankets end up on the ground, pillows cover my face… basically, i’m a crazy sleeper plus i sleep really late, so it’s just a great combination all around. i do love decorating though, and this love has also applied to all my college bedrooms. my roommate and i both love our senior year bedroom, and as we phrase it, “it’s got the vibes.” my side’s got some of my favorites featured in wall art: the breakfast club, inslee, and johnny cash. three very important things. the little shelving unit next to my bed cost $30 and was really easy to set up (except for the fact i didn’t have half the tools to do it); it’s perfect for holding my school books and random books i’m reading, my notebooks, photos, makeup, and the tray. the tray is italicized, because it’s special to me. i keep my glasses, water bottle, favorite candle, lotions, my inslee calendar and pens and pencils up there… all the basics. last, but not least i use the top of my dresser for more makeup storage, jewelry and some other little “organizational displays.”

earring collagei’ve had this collage chilling on my desktop for a month, a whole entire month. don’t forget the fact that i have a little post it-note reminding me to write about these earrings. did i do that? no. should i have? maybe. there are times i put together posts a little bit in advance so i don’t fall behind, but sometimes it happens anyway. especially right now. with daylight savings comes the loss of time and sleep, add traveling back to school on top of that, and don’t forget throwing yourself right back into homework, and you can see why putting posts up can sometimes get iffy. the intentions are all there i swear, but sometimes i feel bleh and they all go out the window. so instead of getting completely off topic, the earrings pictured above happen to be elizabeth cole pieces, and i’m obsessed. i’d like to say i could rock the fishbones, but that might be the delusional, tired me speaking… the parrots on the other hand seem SUPER functional and simple, so i’ll definitely try to fit them into my everyday wardrobe!!

color code: black and blue

so i know the words black and blue evoke the grossness that are bruises, but if you get past that imagery, it’s actually quite a nice color combination. even though they’re both dark tones, they are complementary and can make an outfit. obsession could probably define my relationship with those tech cases, and i can not wait until i can get them before i head off to school!

anthropologie, arm candy, bracelets, forever 21, j.crew, jewelry, neon, nude, studs

There’s nothing that completes an outfit more than a handful of gorgeous bracelets. I love mixing styles and colors, white still maintaining symmetry! No one wants an accessory overload, so make sure not to pile on too many bracelets. I love to look online at Forever21 and ASOS for some great deals, but some of my favorite bracelets are from J.Crew. I still have my eye on the classic pave link bracelet, and would love to add one to my collection!

A few other favorites are:

the classic link bracelet // astrological maps bracelet // wristwise bangle

These are a few of my favorite combinations from my jewelry collection…

studded cuff: forever21

coral and turquoise bangles: j.crew // gold bangle // boutique from my town // neon diamond rope bracelet: juicy couture

enamel-stripe pave bangle: j.crew // nude and neon leaf bracelet: j.crew

diamond zipper bracelet: j.crew // glitter braided bracelet: crewcuts // studded bracelet: boutique from my town

Plus, here’s my new twitter where I’ll post updates! https://twitter.com/#!/lifeandlipstick

a few things i happen to be loving this week!

Robin Rice Gallery

 summer rain // there is nothing as peaceful and beautiful to me as summer rain. the thunder and lightning may cause some issues, such as power outages in over 90 degree heat when air conditioning is necessary..

mylifeinlipstick.polyvore.com

 polyvore // i used to make polyvore sets all the time and at college i took a bit of a break. now that summer is here i’ve rediscovered my love for both making sets and creating tutorials. mylifeinlipstick.polyvore.com

sale prices // can we just talk about that moment when something you love and have been coveting goes on sale. for a great deal. is that not the best feeling ever? then add in the fact that it’s the last one in your size. thank you anthropologie!

MAC Impassioned Lipstick

  bright lips // i absolutely love cosmetics, but something i seriously love happens to be bright, colorful summer lipsticks. it can be from the drugstore (revlon has some amazing ones!), mac or high-end brands, i love them all! i plan to put up a post on my top ten summer colors soon.

a plus that the subject of this creation was spotted in georgetown!

love both of those outfits!

i forever will be obsessed with this painting

inslee // inslee haynes, an author whose art is saw all over tumblr, is my newest love. her work has been a favorite i’ve mine for a long time, but i never knew who created the images i was seeing. now that i know I’ve been bookmarking every picture i love so i can print them out and collage them!
