There was a Burst of Color

Yesterday I did something I've always wanted to do. I participated in a color run. Well technically it was called a Color Burst since it was hosted by the ymca so children could be involved, but same thing. It was as colorful and fun as I imagined.

Now the training for this 5k was very intense. It was so intense some might not even believe that it happened.......thats because it didn't. I did not train whatsoever for this event. I just went for it. Sometimes in life you just got to jump right in unprepared  and hope you don't die from an asthma attack due to your lack of training. But I survived... clearly otherwise you wouldn't be reading this right now. I was not the only unprepared runner. My friend Brittany who also ran along with Stefanie and I was not prepared either. The two asthmatics just taking the color run by storm and hoping for the best. Stefanie on the other hand who decided to be Ms. Overachiever actually trained for the run. Who does that? I don't.

They had the path of the run set up so it was one giant loop that you had to go around twice so you hit each color station a second time. (Just in case you weren't already dosed in color they threw more on you.) The second time I ran through the red color zone this lady threw some right at my face so it speckled around my mouth like I had the chicken pox. I looked like I had just eaten a giant red popsicle. Fantastic.. My friend Stefanie looked like a leprechaun with the amount of green that covered her. I think they could sense she was Irish so they just dosed  her with the green. Let that Irish pride show. Potatoes!!

At the end of the run they have everyone get in a big crowd for the final color toss. For the final color toss they had everyone grab the remaining color and throw it into the air at the same time. The parking lot turns into one giant colorful cloud that hovers for about a minute. Its really cool to see all the colors fly in the air, but word to the wise do not inhale at all during this. Not a good idea. Just hold your breath and hope the cloud of color floats away.  It is a wonderful sight to see though.

I will definitely do the color burst again next year. But maybe I'll actually train this time. Who knows?

Jingling of the Bells and All that Jazz

Ho! Ho! Ho! It is Christmas! Yes, the day we've waited for all year. The day that is held to such high standards. The day that you wake up and then a few hours later the festivities are over... I mean lets be real here for a second if we have christmas commercials  that play for months and unrealistic expectations for holiday perfection, why can't we celebrate it for at least a week? Christmas is too short. I love Christmas, and the day seems to disappear too quickly.
(Unlike you mainstream whipper snappers we celebrated Christmas yesterday, January 3rd, so don't be crushing my candy cane.)

This year my whole immediate family was in attendance. That hasn't happened in a few years due to the fact that siblings have moved  away so it makes it difficult to get everyone together. ah logistics.
 This was also the first Christmas with my niece and nephew. (Technically this is my niece's first christmas ever since she is only two months old  but small details.) I love being an aunt, and christmas shopping for your niece or nephew is so much more fun! Everything is smaller and cuter. You just want to spoil them with everything. Your wallet may not agree, but you do.

So  yes, once again my house was invaded by relatives. I love my family, but I had finally gotten the bathroom arranged just right.  Now multiple people are using it and messing it up instead of just one person...me. Now I don't care if you mess up the great room or the kitchen(its not like I use the kitchen anyways), but do not mess up my bathroom. I like having all of my beauty products and lotions in the right place otherwise I end up being late to an occasion because I take forever rearranging the chaos left by others. Being fabulous is a process. You can't just have someone come in and mess up the fab. Not cool.

Holidays can be stressful (not that I should know I'm not really in charge of anything.) But there are many ways to cope with holidays. I have a few ways.. only 3 really so maybe you shouldn't be listening to my advice. You see I'm  more of a hot mess than a functioning adult..well a hot mess minus the hot...and double the mess. But who cares? Lets not get stuck in christmas pudding over small details like my lack of sanity. This is my advice on how I live my life during the holiday season. Its not the best...but its all I've got.

No. 1 Never put the lights on the christmas tree, have someone else put lights on. For example choose a brother or family member who doesn't enjoy decorating, but be in complete control of the ornament enhancement portion.  (If you give someone an annoying task, they won't volunteer to do more decorating. This step is very important for ornament control.)  This is very pivotal moment in tree decorating. It will make or break your  christmas tree. Remember to hang your basic beautiful bulbs and color coordinated ornaments first, then add the touch of family ornaments! You don't want to be to carried away with the handmade ornaments, otherwise it might make your tree look a bit bulky. I mean really the only person who appreciates your homemade  gingerbread man which resembles chuckie after a chainsaw accident, is your mother.

No. 2 If you at any point feel overwhelmed and stressed, embrace it. We have all at one point found ourselves sitting in a dark corner going full Adele on all the presents we need to buy but can't afford. "Never mind!! I'll find someone like you!!!" But don't worry you burst out those Adele lyrics. You don't have time for shame or sanity during the holiday season. Or maybe you can take the T Swizzle approach and just shake it off. Because nothing solves debt and desperation like thrusting your body around in an awkward turkey like fashion.  You normally end up looking  more like you're having a Benny Hinn experience than shaking off your problems. And trust me having a body shaking healing experience is never a good way to start the holidays.. people tend to think you are dying. Its unfortunate.

No. 3 I firmly believe in avoiding the real problem in any given situation. I hate conflict. I like to avoid the problem until it eventually goes away or it completely consumes your life so the pathetic mess, that you have always been, is exposed to the public. It's not pretty folks.. not pretty. But someone has to be the poster child of "how not to deal with responsibilities," and that just so happens to be my job. If your problem gets too stressful to deal with just go hide in your nephews tent fort and watch netflix. Normally by the time your family has figured  out where your "adult" self is hiding the situation will have been resolved. No need for you to get your tinsel in a knot.  Its just holidays folks.

As you can see I have great holiday stress handling skills. (I am still waiting for Oprah to call and have me on her show. I could expound so much wisdom to the masses.)  So if there is anything you need advice on or topics you want me to cover, just ask. I am always up for giving inexperienced but  fabulous advice. I think its my true calling in life.

Queen Diva out.

Stay Saucy,

P.S. A sign you might be from Wisconsin is if at your family christmas dinner, you spend a large portion of it discussing cheese and the great things of Wisconsin. We are Wisconsinites. We are loud. We are proud. 

Maybe it's not Maybelline

Dear Divas. Today I wanted to take a moment from the sass, sarcasm, and beauty reviews that are my blog and share with you something different. Something I have thought a lot about. Makeup.  Should we or should we not wear makeup? Does it ruin a woman's self esteem? Are we lying by "covering up" our faces?

To find the answer to this question,  we first must explain what the purpose of makeup is. Makeup was created to enhance the natural beauty of a woman. That means that the beauty is already there, it is just accentuated a little more. It doesn't hide beauty or mask a person's face. It can't change the bone structure of your face or make you have a smaller nose. It is simply powder that you put on in the morning and wash off at night.

I once read an article that said to marry a woman who does't wear makeup. They explained how a woman who didn't wear makeup knew what she wanted out of life, and was more confident than a woman who did wear makeup. Because clearly a woman who doesn't chose to cover her face with  cosmetics is better, right?

False.

Makeup is not the problem. Makeup has never been the problem.  Cosmetics are just cremes and powders we apply to our faces. They can't change our DNA or who we are as people. If you are a sweet and funny person without makeup on you will still be that same sweet and funny person with it on. And if you are mean nasty human being without makeup... Honey.. there isn't a concealer in this world that could cover up an ugly soul. Who you are is who YOU are.  Foundation can't change that. It doesn't have that power.  And to say that a woman who doesn't wear makeup is more confident is absolute rubbish. I wear makeup a majority of the time, and I will be just as fierce and fearless as the confident woman who doesn't wear makeup.  Because who I am is based on how I treat other people and how I choose to react to the situations that I am. Not on my eye shadow choice.

As I've gotten older I've started describing people as beautiful more often. But I wasn't talking about their physical appearances. I was talking about their heart and soul, who they chose to be. I know plenty of beautiful women who choose not to wear makeup. I also know plenty of beautiful women who chose to wear makeup. Their beauty is something deeper than what the eye can see. It is more precious and unique than any physical beauty could ever be.

So if makeup isn't the problem what is? What is ruining a woman's self esteem?

We are. People blame it on society and pop culture, but people forget that we are what makes society. If we want change, we have to make change. Change starts at home, not in magazines or t.v. shows. Because the truth is pop culture gives us what we want. We are not blind sheep who have no will of our own. We are human beings who have the ability to tell  corporations this is not what we want or what we want our daughters to be told. Once people stop buying into the lie  that our beauty is defined by whether or not we wear what comes from a bottle, pop culture will stop as well. It gives us what we have told them we wanted. So it time to make a change.


How have we gotten so far that we judge people on something so irrelevant as whether or not they wear makeup? If you don't like wearing makeup, don't let anyone force you to wear makeup. And if you wear makeup don't let anyone tell you makeup is just a mask  that superficial and insecure people wear.

So to the dear parents out there who are concerned that their daughter might get caught up in the nasty lie that makeup makes a person beautiful, teach your daughter that beauty can't be defined by a bottle. But neither does whether or not they wear what comes from the bottle. Don't teach them that when they look in the mirror all they see is beauty. Teach them that no matter what they are wearing or how they look, that when they look in the mirror all they see is themselves, because that is this most beautiful thing a woman could ever be.
         
                                                          Stay Beautiful,
                                                                    Cherry XOXO

Younique Fiber Lashes Review

Hello Gorgeous Divas! How are you today? Fabulous as usual I hope. Today is all about eyelashes! I know what your thinking a beauty post? Yes, its been awhile since I have posted a beauty related post but I'll try and be better about posting them more often. Well anyways if you are at all curious about the beauty world you have probably heard of this new product called Younique Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lash set. And if you haven't its this new product that promises to dramatically enhance the look of your lashes. It promises volume and grandeur.  And well I wanted to see what the hype was all about. So here are my thoughts.

                                           First lets start with the packaging of the product.

I love the packaging. It has this chic sophisticated design, and the texture on the case gives it this extra edge. I think it also very convenient that it comes with its own case so then you don't have to worry about losing or forgetting one of the tubes somewhere. 

The larger tube is the transplanting gel.

The smaller is the actual fibers.

First step in application is applying a thin coating of your favorite mascara. For me right now that is Cinique High Impact Mascara. After you have waited for your mascara to dry apply a coat of the transplanting gel, then before the gel dries apply the fibers.The last step is to apply a 2nd coat of the transplanting gel to set the fibers on to the lashes. It works best if you do one eye at a time.  I have read of some people who completely skip putting on mascara and just use the fiber lashes and like that better. I  haven't tried it that way since I personally like the fuller darker look best, but if you are someone who doesn't like that dramatic of a look maybe you could try it that way.  

Before Fiber Lashes

 I am wearing a thin coating of Clinique Mascara.

After applying Younique 3D Fiber Lashes. 

So what is my verdict? This product is defiantly easy to use. It may take a few tries to get the hang of it, but it doesn't take extensive knowledge of makeup to apply correctly. The product is also very build able. You can achieve the subtly volume or the glamorous eyelash look very easily. It all depends on how much you want to apply. That being said there are two things I did not like about the product. First the smell of the transplanting gel is horrendous. I understand eyelash glue doesn't smell that good in the first place, but I feel like they could do something to not make the smell so strong. Second thing is the spider effect.(If you don't understand what the spider effect, its just when well the eyelashes look a bit clumpy and like spider legs.)When it comes to products like these there is a very fine line between smooth and full or sticky and spidery looking.  Now this doesn't happen every time you apply the fibers, but if you don't apply it smoothly it can teeter on this line. 

It's a pretty decent product overall. And it defiantly delivers on its promise of giving you build able volume and ease of application. I will continue using my Fiber 3D Lash set since I like that burst of volume it gives my eye look. And if you have used this set comment below what you thought.

Autumn Days

 Dear Divas,

 The Autumnal season is upon us and I could not be more thrilled. It is my favorite season and like I stated in my last post, in a perfect world it would be continually Autumn. Few things excite me more than the slight chill you feel in the air or the way the leaves change throughout the weeks. It is beauty. 

I love the way the leaves fall on the grass like they are peacefully floating down to find their spot on the grass. The wind will blow them here or there until the leaves have found the perfect place to watch the world go by. They are finally content. 

I love the mystery of Autumn. It's the way the air hits your face and swirls around your body. It's as it's saying "come find me." The sun begins to hide itself away and the clouds are finding their home back in the sky. The falling darkness holds the mystery in its palm. The mystery has finally returned after the innocence of summer. 

I love the smell of Autumn. Whether it is the aroma of grandma's apple pie or scent of your new candle, they never cease to make you feel at home. You suddenly feel the need to make chili or pumpkin pie to fill your house with the fragrance of fall. 

I love the life of Autumn. Most people think of Autumn as the  season where everything dies. But I see it as the time the colors come alive. Autumn must happen so the green leaves can finally burst into bright colors of red and orange.  Summer must end so neighbors can come together and complete corn mazes or hand out candy to the little ghost and goblins who knock on the door. Autumn must come to welcome the change.

I love Autumn. I love autumn not just for the pumpkins or the way the leaves crunch under your feet, but because Autumn reminds me I am home. Home is where I as child ran through leaf piles and danced as the leaves flew around me. I was in a world of fairies and princes and the leaves were my people. Nothing could stop us. The nostalgia of fall gives peace. It doesn't leave you hoping and waiting for more. With my sweater hugging my body and  my boots warming my feet and the autumn wind wraps around me I am home. Autumn will always be home.

                                               Love,

                                                   Cherry XOXO

 

The Warm and Fuzzies

Hello my dears! How are we today? It's beautiful Sunday today which makes it a perfect day to relax. I am watching Princess Diaries 2  while Odin (my puppy) sleeps at my feet. There are few better ways to relax than watching Chris Pine *insert heart eye emoji* try and steal the crown from Anne Hathaway.  And of course who doesn't love the Queen and Joe's relationship.

"I look like a moose!!"
"But a very cute moose. Make all the boy moose go WHAAAA." 

Life can get a little busy and we forget about the world around us. But sometimes people remind us that not all humanity is bad. The other day I went out to lunch at this yummy Italian place with one of my friends. It was a nice day so we decided to eat at one of the outside tables. Since it was lunch time the place wasn't too busy yet since they are more of a popular night time restaurant. However outside there was a table of 3 women in there 20-30s and another table of a couple and their daughter who looked like she was about 4-5 years old. My friend and I didn't really notice the girl too much since we were being attacked by bees and when we got there the family was almost done and ready to leave. But a few minutes after the little family left I over heard the table of women next to me talking to the waitress asking if they could pay for that table's check.  The waitress was a bit confused on how to do that since the couple had already paid and left, but she got her boss to void the check and let the women pay for the meal. When she asked why the women wanted to pay for the check one of the ladies said that you could tell that the little girl had cancer by the fact that she was wearing a hat and had a large bottle of hand sanitizer and just her physical actions. The lady went on to say that her father in law had just died (or was diagnosed I couldn't catch that part) from cancer, and she wanted to honor him and help this family by doing something even though it was small like paying for their meal. My heart just burst with warmth and respect for this woman.

The greatest thing about it is that the woman didn't do it for the praise from the couple. They had already left and might not ever realize that they got there lunch paid for by a complete stranger. But they don't need too. My faith in humanity was restored a bit that day. And I hope maybe this little story made you feel a little warm and fuzzy inside. I know it made me feel that way.  And maybe it will remind us to look around at other people before we get so suffocated in our own.

Well my divas until next time. I hope you have a fabulous rest of the day. Queen Diva out.
   
                             Stay Swazzy,
                                      Cherry XOXO

P.S. I got this candle from ShopKo. It's called Autumn Hayride. It smells soooo good and I love it! I love candles in general. I mean I really love candles.  I burn them almost every night before I go to bed. There is just something about candles that is so calming.  Ahhhh relaxing candle bliss.

What if We...

What if instead of making the 5th Facebook status of the day, we ask those around about their day.  
What if instead of hoping for a better situation, we work for a better life.
What if instead of stressing about what other people thought of us, we compliment them instead.
What if instead of rushing everywhere, we take a moment to stare at the stars.
What if instead of striving for happiness, we strive for peace in thankfulness.
What if instead of tearing our friends down to make us feel better, we help hold their wounded hearts.
What if instead of barely noticing, we look passed their appearance to see their broken spirits.
What if instead of taking, we give.

What if we....

Time slips by so quickly. In one instant you are celebrating a joyous occasion, but in the next grieving the loss of life. These are the battles of life. The battles no one knows you face but you. We can't seem to get out of our own world to see everyone else is fighting a war you don't know about. We treat it as inconveniences to help someone who desperately needs it. We see the immodestly dressed girl in church and think "She doesn't belong here." We look at the boy who can't seem to ever get a good grade and say "He'll never amount to anything."

We treat our friends like strangers when we can't even go beyond petty talk to see if they are actually ok. We are stuck in the repetitive cycle of wishing to connect but never letting someone in, in fear of being judged and hurt, because we have done that same crime to someone else. We question ourselves all the time "what if we did this or that"  but we never change anything. Too afraid to show love, Because to show love you must give up yourself. The world teaches self love, but its a lie. There is no self in love. If I put myself first it wouldn't be love, I would be the same I've always been, selfish. Love is sacrificing your comfort zone to help somebody else.

So what if we lived love, instead of giving hate.
                                   

                                          Live Love,
                                                Cherry XOXO

Shopping

Hello Beautiful Divas! Today is a gorgeous, sunny day! You know what that means... its a perfect day to go shopping! I have to admit its been so long since I've gone shopping and I miss it. I haven't been clothes shopping since Florida... that was a whole month ago!!!! A Month People! I am going through withdrawal. There is just something so exciting and exhilarating going into a store and searching through all the clothes. You think of all the places you could wear the new outfit. That dress and those heels would be perfect for your date. Or maybe that sun hat would be perfect for a casual sunny day. Or maybe that outfit that makes you feel like you could conquer the world. Oh the places your new outfits can take you!

So I finally purchased my own laptop this week! It so beautiful! I got an Apple Macbook Pro with retina display. Its so thin and light. I love its portability. I am sad though that it doesn't have a cd drive  but I guess they don't really make them with cd drives anymore. But the retina display makes everything look so pretty and crisp. I love it. Especially when I am on pinterest. Ahh I love technology.

Sadly that is all the excitement of my week. I've been busy working all week so I haven't had time to research any new beauty things, but tonight I hopefully will start working on project for you guys so stay tuned.

                                          Stay Beautiful,
                                                       Cherry XOXO

Say what?!

 Hello Gorgeous! You look quite spiffy today. Yes, you sitting there reading this blog, looking fabulous. You probably are very put together and educated person. You understand anything anyone throws at you all the time. Well I am not. My skills are looking put together and acting fabulous. And today you are going to listen to me vent a little on some issues I don't understand. Maybe you can explain them to me? Because thats what we do here in little kingdom of fabulousness, we help each other. Well lets get on with these hard hitting topics of things I don't understand.


1.  People who wear Camo as a Fashion Statement.
  We can see you. Your camouflage isn't working. Why are you intentionally wearing something that is supposed to make you invisible? Makes no sense. It doesn't look cute. Think about it have you ever heard anyone go " Man, girl, I saw you looking fine in that camo and my heart just almost fell out of my chest, can I have your number?" Nope you haven't.  If you are in the military and doing military activities than by all means wear camo. Work that camo. Embrace the flage.  But in normal life..Stop trying to make camo happen.

2. Grocery Stores.
   I can navigate my way through any clothing  or department store, but the moment I step into a grocery store I start to have questions like, "Where is it?" "How do I get there?" When will I get there?" "Will I make it out alive?" It gets real in a grocery store. Just today I had to unfortunately go to a grocery store and I was so lost. I walked past the meat section twice before I found it. And why is the meat section so confusing. Like what type of chicken is the right type chicken? How can there be this many different types of chicken?! I just want the kind that I can eat. I don't care about all this extra stuff like whether or not this hen laid the egg that grew up to be in the movie  Chicken Run. I just want normal disease free chicken. Also, the peanut butter which I assumed after I couldn't find it would be in the pancake aisle because you know a lot of people like pb on their pancakes. ( I personally don't eat pancakes. I lead a pancake free life.) However there was no peanut butter. I finally found the peanut butter by chance. I just walked down very aisle till I could find it.
 Tis a stressful world in a grocery store.

3. Culottes.
  Are trying to be a skirt or are you trying to be shorts? Nobody knows.


4. College fees.
I understand that you need money and all to go to school. I mean you got to pay the teachers and such, but whats with  so many extra fees?! It's ridiculous. First of all you have to pay to apply. These poor students have to pay out all this money just so a bunch of strangers who have never met the student can judge them, and  on top of that most students apply to multiple colleges. Nobody has money for that. Don't you people know its a recession. And textbooks. Why are textbooks so expensive?! You only use the book for one section in that one chapter on that one page. And then you think you got it all taken care of when they roll out the bill for a placement testing because apparently your ACT score isn't good enough to judge your academic ability. What's the point of an ACT test then? You got to pay for that too... and then you have to pay for your scores to be sent. Ridiculous!! Fight the system! I don't know how because they won't let you in unless you pay the fees, but fight the system!!!

They also tell you come to our school for all these benefits that will really help you in your life. I once got a brochure for a college and it talked about how they had all these hiking trails you could use to see nature. First of all like I said in my first post I don't do nature. But second of all you want me pay 30,000 dollars just so I can experience some nature?! If I want to see nature I can just go to my backyard where its free, and I don't have to do homework.  Poor college student troubles.

Well my dear little divas I hope you can emphasize with my quandaries or at least explain them to me.
 I will try and post again this week, but I am going to be really busy since I have family in town and my grad party on Saturday. I will try my best.  Don't forget to follow and subscribe so you don't miss out on more posts! Share and tell a friend if you'd like.

Relaxing Weekend

Hello Gorgeous! Happy Mother's Day to you Mother's out there! I hope you celebrated fantabulosly  your ability to birth small alien like human beings into this world. Go You! *Diva claps for all*

For me today was filled with church breakfast, celebrating, Red Lobster, and my favorite shopping! Ahh what a life.. However shopping today was so stressful. Almost every store I entered was filled with cheap teen trendish clothing. Everything was neon this or neon that, which neon can be great however when the majority of your clothing is neon its time to rethink your priorities. Also what is with stores making clothing to only fit people who wear 0's or 2's? Hello!  *Diva announcement time* Most of the world is not a size 2! Not that its bad to be a size 2. Its just that the majority of the world is not.  Have they not every heard of supply and demand?

Yesterday I attended my good friend Faith's 21st birthday party. And before you ask, no it wasn't a crazy drunken brawl. We have too much class for that..It was a fun time though. Giggles and cake were had by all. Before the party Charity and I had the bright idea of waxing my legs. Lesson learned from that just because the result is not turning out right doesn't mean the product is defective maybe you're just doing it wrong. When waxing rip up, against the hair, not down, with the hair....It won't work very well if you go the wrong direction, and then you'll have to re-wax.. ha who know? Not Charity and I.  Again Logic is not one of my strong points.  

Well I apologize for the short pathetic blog post, but that is all for the day. Don't forget to subscribe, comment, or follow! Enjoy these pictures of my nephew enjoying mother's day.

                   Stay Classy,
                                Cherry XOXO

P.S Want to hear a joke? What do you call a country with all pink cars??? A pink carnation! Haha..ha.....ha.....ya....I tried...

Beautiful Face

Hello little Divas! Today is a gorgeous! A very Swazzy day if you ask me! And since it is so beautiful out I thought it would be the perfect time to introduce you to my gorgeous best friend Charity whom I've known since I was 3 years old. You might be thinking oh no not another crazy shoe obsessed over dramatic diva, but you'd be wrong (you probably weren't thinking that I just like to assume my audience is as judgy as I am.)She is fun, kind, sweet, semi patient, and quiet.. and as you can probably tell I have the gift of gab, a very generous gift of gab. She is the yin to my yang, and we fit as friends perfectly. We are actually are more like twins who were separated at birth... even though I am 4 months older than her...  so that would make our theory impossible...but who cares about logic anyway!

A few days ago Charity and I had a mini beauty day. I did her makeup and hair then afterwards we had a little spa treatment! ahh relaxation.  She is already GORGEOUS so it didn't take much work to do her makeup. We decided for Charity to go semi dramatic on the eyes with dark silver, black, and glitter charcoal colored eye shadows. We also gave her winged eye liner and mascara. For her face we used a little foundation because Charity is one of those blessed people who has almost perfect skin. We also went with a little blush and bronzer for conturing. Add a little color to her very fair complexion.

These products were used to create the eye look. The Brushes are from Eco Tool, Maybelline Mascara, elf eye shadow, and revlon eyelash curler. 

                                                 As you can see Charity has very fair skin. 

We added a lift color but not too much.

These products below are what I used on her face.

                                                         

We went simple on the lips we used Revlon Nude and a sheer lipgloss that I received as a gift. I'm not sure on the brand. 

                      Future model? I think so.

       For Charity's hair we gave her a teased messy look.  We used Caviar Anti Aging Working Hairspray. 

Well that is today's beauty look.  Don't forget to subscribe or follow for more!   

Stay Swazzy,

I am Fabulous

   Hello dear bloggerians or whatever it is you call yourselves! This is my blog, Life of Fabulous. My life obviously.  I am royalty. A queen diva to be exact (but you can call me Cherry.)  I lead a life of grandeur, mystery, and excitement, or at least thats what I wish it to be. In reality I am just an easily distracted girl who has a major shopping problem. I talk more than I should, online shop more than I should. Lets just say I don't do things half way. Its an all or nothing kind of deal. As in the wise words of somebody I can't remember who "if you're going to hit somebody, you might as well hit them hard." People tell me I'm witty, however I'm not really aware of my wit till after the fact. Its awkward. I don't do nature or camouflage of any kind...ever.  Oh and yes Cherry is my real name. Its not a nickname. Its not fake name. Its my REAL name. And yes I am fully aware I am named after a fruit. You don't have to point it out.

You may be thinking "where did such an unfortunate human crawl from her hole?." And the answer to that question is Wisconsin, my glorious homeland. We got cheese. We got Beer. We got the packers, and the FFA (Future farmers of America... sounds like a party right?)
ya no.. not unless that party includes trucks and cows.. I have lived here my whole life and I love my state of green and gold, but lets just says its not the most musical or fashion forward state.

 I try to bring color into my friends and family's life however my sass and humor goes unappreciated most of the time. I have one legitimate talent and that is singing..at least attempting to. I lead a talentless life.. I'm ok with it though. No need to pity me and my unfortunate skills. I survive. Besides I'm fabulous. Who needs to be able to cook, clean, or draw when you can shop instead!  

Well see you soon my loves! 
    Stay classy, sassy, but never trashy! 
                          Cherry 
     


P.S!!! One thing you must never forget! My eye's are HAZEL! Hazel People! Not brown. Not green. I mean is it so hard to grasp the concept of an eye color? Anyways carry on with your wonderful day. XOXO
