Good morning, lovelies! What day is it? Can you please tell me? Because I seem to be in a bit of a time warp. J has been away since Tuesday and normally that means a lot free time to catch up on things but this time I've been so insanely crazy that I can't seem to get my barrings. Normally the house would be immaculate and I'd have accomplished a major project or two but no, not this time. I'm knee deep in work, extremely daunted by the fact that I have to get ready for my flight out of town tomorrow and add to that an unbelievably slow internet connection, and I'm about to blow my stack! Hopefully this is able to post but I'm honestly not feeling very confident.
I think my only option is sit down and put on a happy face this morning. Sometimes taking a little extra time to make yourself look pretty really can make a difference. Maybe I'll try a new hairstyle, my hair has looked horrible the past few days with the humidity, I probably should just pull it up. And how bout a new eye look, wing the liner a bit, and a little extra blush? Oh and I definitely need to switch off on the fragrance. I have a few new babies that need to be put to the test. That could definitely do the trick. Well, off I go. Wish me luck!
Hope to be on by today to say hello! Missing you all! xoxo

Happy landing and have a good journey. I agree on taking extra time to make onself look prettier. I adore the image above - so soft, delicate and feminine. xx
Ooooh - i know times like that! Yes, just pamper yourself a bit and brighten it all up with a big smile! Good luck xx
wing the liner, it makes life good :)
hope that you get everything you want to accomplish accomplished. you can do it! and hey, it's almost the weekend :)
Good luck dear Dawn, almost the weekend and you can relax.

a nice warm bath a few candles and violet oil and in 10mins you will be revived and ready to go enjoy the week fay x
Have a great weekend!
its almost time Dawn, and then you will have an amazing time!! xo
That hairstyle looks amazing and you just reminded me that I am way overdue to get a new perfume. I see all these photos pf people owning close to 10 perfumes at a time and I am squeezing off every single last drop from my old perfume right now. A trip to Sephora or Saks is in order for me :)
Oh... humidity and hair... bad mix. It's amazing what a fragrance can do to lift the spirit. I love a winged eye... do you use Stila smudge pots? The best for a cat eye! Hope your day goes better today. xo
hello darling!beautiful post,beautiful images!xoxo
Working from home means I can get away with no make up often but it makes me feel crappy! Feeling you look good makes such a difference to your mood.
You know, when I feel like this, it's amazing what a self manicure/pedicure can do to lift your spirits. Take deep breaths and just slooow down.

Pampering yourself and making yourself look good definitely goes a long way in making yourself feel better! Do this all the time and it works wonders. I'm sure you'll be fine and hope you have a great weekend ahead!
The post published just fine, the pictures are beautiful - now is the time to relax and take a deep breath, put on some lovely perfume, wiggle the toes, sing a song... I'm sure your weekend will be wonderful, Dawn.
xoxo
Time to get the party started (so to say! :P) .. have a wonderful weekend and whip away all the blues!!! Have fun, Dawn!

Sweetie, your hair looked GREAT. :-) Have fun in California, I'm so jealous! Take lots of pictures...
Oh it will all work out and soon you will be on that trip! Lovely.
And may I just say that first photo... sigh... It is feminine perfection.
I'm sure you'll forget about all this craziness when you're off on your trip. Hope you have a wonderful time, lots of fun and lovely things to share! ;)
Have fun out west. -P
Just keep thinking to yourself that in a matter of days, you'll be in sunny California:) xo
that is great. I always believed that not only feeling pretty makes you pretty, but if you take sometime to yourself, can move mountains. I used to take an afternoon off in college when I was too overwhelmed. I would buy a Vogue, have my nails done, buy a new dress, maybe cut my hair, and done. I was new again.
i agree! on my roughest work days at my old job, i would do some extra dressing up to get my mood more into the game.
the weekend is almost here, friend!!
I hope your day goes better! Man, leaving town when you're man is gone is rough. But you are so right... add a little sparkle to the face and it does make a difference.
i know what you mean, but it's almost the weekend!:-) XX
That vanity set is gorgeous!
Beautiful pictures. I wish I could get my hair to look like the girls in the first picture.
I understand what you mean about work being totally crazy. I've been constantly stressed out the last few weeks.
I am having one of those days too, you feel kind of blah and want to do things a little different. xo C.
i love it when i have a little extra time to curl my hair! that totally makes me feel like i'm all dolled up and sure does give me more confidence!
love your blog! i'm already following you :)
Completely agree and the same thing goes for feeling sick. If I put on a cute outfit, do my hair, and put on makeup I usually feel at least somewhat better! Enjoy your trip and hopefully you'll get some time to relax!
You certainly are looking good to me! I know how you feel when you're overwhelmed. Deep breathes!!!
I do always feel better when I look better -- today is not one of those days! :)
xoxo Elizabeth

Hope your day improved sweetie!! It think it was the weather change or something, bc this week has been nuts. So get out of the crazy weather the city is experiencing and enjoy your trip to the sunshine filled west coast! Have a great weekend!

That sucks. There really isn't another way to put it. (c: But thankfully you are a positive person who is going to power through it and not sit and eat chocolate (like I would do (c:) Here's to a fab vacation, right?
Hope it all works out and you have time to calm down. Sometimes everything seems to happen at the same time!
i love the cat eyes! get some relaxation time for yourself :)
Hope your weekend is wonderful...relax and enjoy!!
I hear you on the crazy busy part. So frustrating when you can't seem to get ahead! Hope this weekend is better for you :)
Hope you have a fun out of town trip!
Taking time for yourself is important! I think that should be first, then things will slowly come together. I hope you have a very nice weekend, dear! XO
