Randies love






Modcloth.com is really making me want to make my whole entire wardrobe into vintage dresses. I have quite the collection of 80s prom dresses and 90s sweaters, but I need to get my game up. I'm in love with vintage dresses. I'm itching to go to the thrift store. I just love finding vintage pieces that you know nobody else owns. And you can totally go to a thrift store with 50 bucks and buy a whole new wardrobe. love it. Let's thrift!




I'm absolutely in love with cake art, thanks to "Cake Boss". I think I'm going to try my hand at it. First project, something simple, maybe a cheeseburger cake. It will probably come out horrendous my first try, but it would just be for fun. I love baking, and I'm good at it, so I'll step it up a bit. Who knows, if I'm good at cake art, maybe I can make some money doing that. ha, doubt it. It will be fun to experiment, none the less.



Another thing I'm excited about, this Saturday I will be doing Frankie's mom's makeup for a 1920s theme party! Inspiration? Clara Bow, of course.



Too bad there aren't any color photos, but I know how to do 1920s makeup. It's actually one of my favorite makeup styles. Very dramatic, smokey eyes. Deep red lips. Deep rose cheeks. And I love the cupid's bow lips.



This will definitely be good for my makeup portfolio. Hopefully it comes out great. Very excited for this.

ok, I'll leave you with a random song that I love...



adore Patti Smith, and her haunting, melodic music.
definitely not for everyone though haha.

nothing short of beautiful

I've blogged about this in an earlier blog I had, but, I absolutely love Clara Bow.



She exudes beauty in every way. She was one of the greatest silent film actresses. I think fashion should totally take a turn for this look. I think I might. I mean, in some ways, it definitely has. The over sized bows and what not. I really think I would love breaking out this look every now and then. I've got the hair and the bug eyes to pull it off mwahaha.
