The Royal Treatment

I have heard that purple is the traditional color of royalty. But then we also have royal blue. So I decided to be super royal (like the princess that I am) and combine both colors in my outfit for today.




This is an INC pencil skirt with an equestrian motif, topped by a Catherine Malandrino bat wing blouse.


 To further play off the royal treatment, I am wearing two necklaces, one short lapis number that I got in Coronado, and a longer Viking Battle axe that belongs to Doc.


Of course, I over accessorized with sapphires. On my left arm, I have three sapphire bracelets and a London Blue Topaz ring.


On my right arm, I have a sapphire cocktail ring, and another gold bracelet.


I finished off with a vintage navy cord and gold medallion belt, and my Nine West black sandals with the gold studs.


Due to commitments at work (the nerve !!!) I didn't have time to post yesterday. But I did save my pix, and here is what I wore:



This hippie style dress is from Victoria's Secret. It doesn't need a lot of fluffing, but I did wear some cool jewelry. I used my butterfly hangers to arrange the gems.



I wore my buffalo turquoise and smoky topaz statement necklace.


On my left arm, I wore my Swarovski duo - the Infinity bracelet and my Nirvana in Black Diamond.


On my right arm, a mabe pearl ring and a silver bracelet with smoky topaz.


On Sunday, I went to Ulta, because I needed foundation. I got two different kinds.


I am using the one on the left. It's very thick, but I warm it up in my palm, and then use my Beauty Blender. It has good coverage. So if you spend $19.50, you get a free gift, which I am ALL about.




You can pick either mint or lavender. I got lavender.  Here's what was inside:


1) Travel size Apricot blush/ Yellow Diamond Highlighter
2) 15 makeup remover pads
3) Dual ended eyeliner in Black Brown/ Halo
4) Brow Pencil in Warm Brown
5) 3 brushes - Blush, small eyeshadow, large eyeshadow


6) Travel size nail polish in Lilac-ing You
7) 6 pan eyeshadow - Full Moon, Romance, Brownie, Moonbeam, Bayou, Give Me Gold


8) Weightless Lipstick in Mauve Me
9) Mini Matte Lip Cream in Allusive
10) Voluptuous Volume Mascara in Jet Black
11) Flawless Primer
12) $5 coupon off a future $10 purchase.
