The Dior Petal Shine palette must be my palette of the moment. I find myself constantly reaching for it. A quick neutral daytime look using Petal Shine...
Benefit Jing - A - Ling lipstick
Heroine Kiss Me mascara

huh face?
My snuggle bunny Charlotte...

She's super soft and cuddly

cheeto is also known as FUR-LITO because she sheds like crazy


caught her yawning!
I'm really desperate for a vacation! Last year around this time I was in Brazil...

the magnificent Iguassu Falls in Southern Brazil by the Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil border

Its the largest fall in the world in terms of area coverage

the biggest part of the fall known as "Devil's Throat"

Toucan at the bird park

Guanabara Bay

Copacabana Beach

Christ the Redeemer


Sugar loaf mountain looks so small from where I am

can you find me ?

going up to sugar loaf


took this right outside the hotel

view from top of the hotel
sigh... I would love some delicious churrascuria right about now
XOXO, M
