Mornings...

It is starting to hit me, mornings are just killing me now! I normally enjoy waking up a little earlier, but lately, it's been a beast...ask my husband! I feel like I have this normal morning routine, like most of us. But I have realized recently how tired I have been in the mornings during those routines...here is why... (most of the time, I am rushing now...)

After getting dressed, lunch sort of packed, etc., - the last thing I do to get ready is brushing my teeth. I slab the toothpaste on my brush and start scrubbing along. I then am normally at that time talking to my husband with toothpaste still in my mouth, kinda with a louder tone because I don't think he can hear me. ( This has been just a new thing I have realized I do). Once I get ready to get the foamy toothpaste out of my mouth, I have looked at my toothbrush noticing the color does not quite match the one I remember using last night. Now guys...I honestly still have toothpaste in my mouth. I ask my husband, is your toothbrush green or blue? He responds blue. I look down, not really disgusted but sorta/kinda disgusted because that blue toothbrush, is not my toothbrush. My'n is the green one, still sitting in it's position in the holder. I love my husband...but I kinda gag when I find that out. You think I have learned to look before using???!? I am blaming it on the weather, or I honestly must be out of it every morning....

My New Fabulous Slippers :

Saw them and loved them so now I have them! Me and the hubby went out to check things out because we haven't been shopping in a very long time. So last night adventure was fantastic!

I saw these adorable slippers and wa-laaa, I have them on my feet and took them home with me. Aren't they adorable?!?! The other funny thing was this...we went our seperate ways a little bit while shopping and this is what my husband brought over that he wanted... (...not to say in the same colors as my slippers)

::Fabulous Christmas Movies ::

Can you believe Christmas is already NEXT WEEK??!?!?!!?!? ..woa! I don't know about all of you, but I have been on a Christmas movie kick.... The typical favorites have been playing on my t.v. recently...

This....smells. AHHHHMAZING!

Okay, I know it's Aveda but you all have to buy this. It's one of those candles you just want to eat up!
It's called the Himalayan Glow candle...DELICIOUS!

::Gorgeous:: It makes me miss my long hair...

So one of my favorite looks for fall this year has been the softer make-up with the beautiful long and flowish curls. This is the German Vogue and I saw this and thought how gorgeous it is! I love the make-up how it is going towards the softer look instead of the harder lines and heaviness of the make-up. I feel it shows our natural beauty more and how beautiful we all can be with softer make-up.

...let me tell you, this magazine is 6 euros. I asked my hubby the equivalent of the american dollar it is and it's nuts. He said around $12.00!!!!

Crazy Days at IBW!

So, I have decided to mix my blog in with some fun people I have been able to meet while at school. It has been fun learning different techniques with cutting, coloring, make-up, up-dos and extensions while they have been here.

Here are a few I have been able to meet:
Rudy Miles: Make-up Artist for Aveda...worked with Cindy Crawford, Dolce & Gabbanna, Valentino.



Vivienne Mackinder: (...lovely British accent)! Taught us up-do's, hair extensions. She has won the North American Hairdressing Awards quite a bunch of times...pretty big accomplishment!




Just recently- Candy Shaw came and taught us French haircutting technique and Balyage...both are pretty intense! But fun to learn. She is based off of Atlanta, GA and known as world's top stylists.




Ginger Boyle is coming in next week- she is teaching us more about cutting and coloring. She is based off of Beverly Hills. She has worked with models for Jimmy Choo shoes for launching at H&M. Something crazy...went on her website, and her haircuts start at $200!! Wowwwzaa!!


But there are tons more, but those are a few people. More will be coming, so stay tuned!!!
