Double D is for …
Dissertation Defense * Dr. Dispo * BiG Day: December 8 ~ Save the Date!
After I passed my presentation with full faculty on Veterans’ Day, I followed my Bestie Evie‘s advice:
Take a Me QT Day.
While I still worked on revising my paper, I also set aside Spa Time this past weekend!
Facial Mask
Based on Fleur De Force‘s The Glam Guide, I used these ingredients for *acne and **dark spots:
Manicure
Then I treated myself to an at-home mani with the following gift sets:
and polished my finger nails with my own lacquers:

My top tip to achieving a lasting nail paint job:
Run freshly coated nails in cold water and dodge hot water!
- Cold water seals in moisture, while hot water repels and drys it out
- If I hand wash dishes, I wear special gloves
- I also wear gloves during hands-on activity
Massage
My good †Christian† friend and fellow prayer warrior, Lisa, came through again, introducing me
Thank GOD for these special gifts of blessings and wonderful company!

If you’ve ever watched Funny Face that starred Audrey Hepburn, then you’ll remember the opening scene when Quality magazine’s editor, Ms. Prescott made time to rhyme:
- Think pink [especially for Breast Cancer Awareness]
- Red is dead

Perfect for the approaching Advent/CHRISTmas season: Pine cones outside my school‘s gazebo that I picked up after I taught speech today! (Fun fact: Last time I scored some was when I went snowboarding with my cousins at Lake Tahoe while I still lived in the Bay Area!)
- Blue is through [including for my *Dallas Cowboys* plus through blue eyeliner and denim tops]
I beg to differ, Ms. Prescott, because I don’t discriminate against any color … Bring on ALL of the above this season, everyday and always, please!
Bottom line: Fashion rules don’t dictate our lives + we may have pieces in our collection that’ll stay timeless.

This past weekend, I took my latest photo gig to my fam friend’s 50th birthday party ~ ’50s style! Before I strapped on my cam and shot snaps, I strapped on my suspenders and shot a smile!

Since I seldom have time to shop, much less the money to invest on a full-fledged poodle skirt complete with petticoat

I just created labels from photos of real French poodles who I professionally photographed!

Presenting: my micro mini poodle skirt on a budget!

To complete the look: my high school varsity letterman jacket * my grad ring on a chain * my cat bobby socks * my bowling shoes {Stevies by Steve Madden}

My beloved felines seemed to think that I was looking fine!

My big champ cat is the #BOMBdotCom ~ as in the beautiful #photobomb dot com!

Of course, my furr babies also make the purrfect models!

✌Deuces✌ That makes 2 for Tuesday Beauty!
