Challenge #2: MY PERSONAL STYLE

Today’s challenge is to describe my own personal style. Well to describe my style…. Hmm that could be a tough one, I would describe my style as comfortable. Ha Ha!! I am not picky when it comes to clothes basically grab and go. I wear a lot of t-shirts and jeans. I was born at the end of the 70’s which had a wonderful style. I remember going through my mom’s closet and seeing all the colors and fringe. I feel like it was unique and amazing but not my style.
 I grew up during the 80’s and I loved the bright neon colors and I am almost certain that the over use of hairspray could be the single contributing factor to the hole in the ozone layer!! I could never sport the teased bangs myself but I did have the feathered hair look. I did admire that the 80’s was a decade devoted to a unisex look pretty much anyone could wear the fashion and look cool. Male or female it could be adapted accordingly. (I am sure we all remember the hair bands of the 80’s, some of my favorite bands come from the era, However I had quite the time explain to my kids that they were men and not women!) I am ashamed to say though that I did go through a period in about 86 where I had Day-Glo orange spandex pants, as well as Neon green. Not my finest hour but I tried. FYI, it is not a good look for a 200 lb. 6th grader to wear neon spandex in the 80’s kids can be mean and I set myself up for some torment. (but we will save that for another post)
Now in the 90’s I did get behind the grudge look, but of course I was a teenager in the 90’s and it could be the rebellious stage I went through. I loved the flannel shirts and denim. But really even now who doesn’t love a great fitting pair of Jeans. I also still own a couple denim Jackets that I do wear on a regular basis.  I also LOVED the gothic look. I loved wearing black because as a big girl black was a flattering color. I also loved the corset look, (I currently own 3 corsets that I wear on a regular basis) Currently my style would be more western I like a great boot and again as I said before I LOVE a great fitting pair of Jeans. I have used many pieces from a lot of styles I have even added some vintage pieces from the 50s era as well.  SOO … what is your opinion? How would you describe your style? Or if you’re like me and have a mishmash of pieces in your closet what was your favorite style from which era?






Thanks for stopping by today and tune in tomorrow for Challenge #3 when we discuss my top 3 headlines of July

I have always wanted to....

             So without further ado here is today's post (that should have been posted on friday). Today's topic is... I have always wanted to... Well to answer this question I would say there are several things I have always wanted to do but most of them I'm to scared to try lol. Such as I think it would be an amazing experience to go surfing and scuba diving. But because I can't swim very well I am to scared to try. My motto is I can only drown once! Lol I know that's not really funny but it's strange how rear can dictate what a person does. I think seeing all the fish and coral would be amazing. I have heard from others that have done it and they said the experience was breathtaking, and that words could not explain it.        Another thing that I would love to do is see all 50 states and I have been to 5 so far but unfortunately that takes money. That's another thing that dictates what people can do. Money i...

Handbook for the recently deceased makeup palette

So, I was watching YouTube and I really enjoy watching makeup reviews especially inexpensive make up. I enjoy this because I feel like it’s makeup, that I could maybe buy and use someday. I saw a woman reviewing a very unique palette. Her YouTube name is nerdy girl Makeup. (I will leave the link at the bottom of the post so you can check her out) I just ran across her and started watching because of this palette. I have since subscribed and really enjoy her tutorials and reviews you should check her out. Any way back to the topic at hand. She was reviewing this palette that was based on the beetle juice movie. I am a huge fan of anything Halloween. So, I decided that I needed this palette in my life. So, this journey took me to my local Mall. Because this palette can only be found at Hot Topic in the Mall. Now for any one that knows me knows that I am not the biggest fan of the mall. But I felt I would make an exception to have this palette in my life. So, I went to Hot...

Introduction to wilderness series

Hey all welcome back, Today I am wanting to talk about something a little serious, in my area we have been having some earthquake activity. Now we don’t have many noticeable earthquakes here, I am from Utah and we have little ones you know the barely noticeable ones but lately they have been getting stronger. The last one that was recorded that was large for here was 4.1 and it was southern Utah on April 13th. But we are having bigger and bigger ones. So, with that being said I thought it would be a good idea to talk about what to do in an emergency situation. Now being prepared will always be first and foremost the most important thing. A little prep will make things so much better for the future. I posted a poll on twitter asking in a disaster what would be the first thing you would want to do. 1. Make a shelter 2. Gather/finding a clean water source 3. Make a fire 4. Get a food source Now for me the first two things I would probably do is find a water ...
