into the woods... sequin style

I am by no means a "nature-lover."
For one, I am allergic to fresh spring air.
My eyes, nose, ears, head, skin, everything just freaks out.
Don't worry- I'm medicating in preparation for the pollen outbreak.
But, there's nothing I can do about those blasted mosquitoes.
But, I am really good at pretending, right?
This skirt was the product of me wanting to incorporate more skirts in to my closet.
I own tons of dresses and jeans and tops, but my skirt collection was minimal.
I never say never....
to florals.
(take that, justin bieber!)
Bows make me happy.  This is a long, shark bite cut tank and I am learning truly how versatile it is!
READER QUESTION #1: 
Have you ever done a makeup tutorial?
I had a question on a couple posts ago about whether or not I have ever done a makeup tutorial.  I do love makeup, I buy it, I wear it... But, I have never done any tutorial, makeup or otherwise.  I'm such a silly person, I might have to break the ice with a few, casual vlogs before heading towards anything remotely instructional.  
READER QUESTION #2:  
What shades of lipstick do you wear?
My favorite lipsticks are as follows:  
 seen on me here & here.
Revlon Lipstick, in Orange Flip, seen on me here.
I love lipstick, and besides these I have like A BAJILLION more in my purse.

Oh, do you see that curtsy?  
I'm a lady.

One of my many loving and precious readers, whom I know and cherish in real life, wanted me to share with you my newest technological purchase.  
She saw the sparkles and promptly said, during dinner, 
"Oh, Bekah, you should totally blog about that!"
Here ya go, Brookie, this one is for you.


What can I say? I told you I liked
  sparkles.

  1. Bekah, I'm loving that bow top! Soooooo cute. Makes me want to go get a bow top. I have a reader question for you. Where did you get the expression "My little chickens"? It seems just odd enough to have some significance :)
    Moms Have Style, Too!

    also adore you in this floral skirt, you should definitely wear more skirts. Suits you really well!

    I am so with you with those mosquitoes. Am actually allergic to them, the only downside to summer for me.

  13. That case is the case of my dreams, do not lay it down or I might jack you for it and pretend like I didn't see anything. But don't worry, I don't know how to find you. Seriously it is all kinds of awesome.
