BECAUSE 2012 COTY is tangerine tango

Is it me, or is it the first time you’ve heard of the concept “color of the year” and Pantone Universe for that matter? Or you’re like Joy and are actually in the fashion/fabric/design industry and have had Pantone codes memorized the way I memorized pi?

After I got over my initial bout of giggles and eye rolling, I did call up two different Sephoras in the city to inquire about the release date for the single item I was actually curious to try out:

Here it is in all its glory.

And I love it and I love it and I love it.




I’ve never had a more luxurious and  yummy smelling lipstick in my 23 years. It’s so creamy and moisturizing and SCENTED and completely reminiscent of the YSL Rouge Volupte.



Do yourself a favor and grab 3 before they sell out. One for yourself, a backup for when you go through this tube in 3 months, and one for yo mama bc mother’s day is coming up.

BECAUSE we are insane...

We decided to start Insanity.

For the next two months we will limp and moan and stop eating cupcakes...

Did we mention that we live a couple of blocks from Billy's? Did we also mention that New York is home to thousands of delicate, delectable cupcake shops that make 'em lighter than air? We inevitably pass at least half a dozen pastry shops, cupcake trucks, and chocolate stores every single day just to maneuver from pt A to pt B on our beloved island. 

Shaun T and dear readers, we have our work cut out for us!

To make matters worse, Joy and I have crazy different schedules. I work, she’s in school, we both go to church about three times a week so it’ll be interesting how consistent we can be and how much pain we can take before we throw in the towel and run for a cupcake. 

Here’s to Day1 with our new BFF

BECAUSE we have our quiet times...

I couldn’t stop thanking God for you—every time I prayed, I’d think of you and give thanks. But I do more than thank. I ask—ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory—to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for his followers, oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him—endless energy, boundless strength!
Ephesians 1:16-19 MSG
