Organized Office Closet

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />How about a peek into my freshly organized office closet?  It was quite the cluttered mess a few weeks ago, but I dug in and got her all cleaned up! I'm fortunate to have a built-in dresser with shelving above for extra storage, but I wasn't taking advantage of that space and the stuff was just piling up.  My craft paint, pens and brushes are now at my fingertips, which has led to a few more craft projects lately.  </div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Sexy Fall Lipstick

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Is it feeling like Fall where you are?  We're still in the 90's, but with it being September now and  a few weeks of school down, I can feel Fall on the horizon.  You've seen me pick out a couple of cardigans and booties in preparation for cooler temps, and I was thinking of adding some darker lip colors to my almost all-pale collection of lipsticks.  Since I usually wear more sheer color on my lips, I always feel like my lips are screaming, "look at me" when I go darker.  But, my motto for fashion and beauty lately is, "It should be fun!"  And, "Why not?"  I think it just takes some getting used to after you find a shade that looks good on you. </div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br /><br />As you can see below, my favorite lipstick is MAC (although I admit to not really trying any other major brands).  I have tried drugstore lipsticks, but I usually hate either the smell or taste.  MAC has no taste or odor, goes on smooth, and feels good on your lips.  I often add <a href="http://bit.ly/1qZbZbq">this gloss ('simmer')</a> on top of any shade of lipstick I'm wearing.  Just a dot in the center of your lips makes them poutier. <a href="http://bit.ly/1qZbZbq">This gloss ('tickled pink')</a> looks great on it's own.</div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
