another bird print outfit post

Don't mind my lion's mane.

This bright, fuchsia-like lipstick is my new favorite color from the Covergirl LipPerfection line that I've blogged about before. It just screams summer and "wear when having a good time." Best of all, the color lasts longer than a lot of my more expensive brands. This one's called Divine, if anyone cares to know :)

So....I've got my first giveaway coming up! I can't wait to share the details once everything gets put into place. It's just my little way of saying THANK YOU (seriously) to all my readers/friends (and any new folks that wish to come aboard the Roni-train). For the last 6.5 months I've really appreciated all the "sweet somethings" and encouraging words y'all leave almost daily - they're like gifts and oh, how I wish we were geographically closer! But yes, stay tuned for this. 

For those that have done giveaways before, please let me know what y'all use to randomly pick the winner. I know of one site, but I like options. Thanks!

Have a great weekend!  

the different Roni's...in pictures, of course.

Todays outfit: Half granny/half school girl...a whole lotta sassitude!

Playful Roni :)

Since we moved to Jersey I've been meaning to take a small stack of clothing to a tailor, this skirt being one of the pieces. I've got a couple things that need to be taken in about an inch or so, nothing drastic, but I bought them a little big because they were on sale! (Duh)
Alas, after almost an entire year with this particular cutie I decided, "screw it, I'm taking the tags off and hoping it stays above the hips." No panty shows today, woohoo!

OH! I wanted to share a lipstick I bought yesterday at CVS. It's from the CoverGirl Lip Perfection line. The color is Euphoria (burgundy/wine). It's absolutely the most suitable fall/winter hue I've ever seen! Not all these pictures truly showcase the immaculate color of the lipstick, but trust me, I have two other shades from this inexpensive line (Darling & Eternal) and I swear by their long-lasting, creamy applications. A couple girlfriends fell in love with the colors and quality, too. I'm telling you, it lasts allll day! Get you some!

wanna-bee billboard-noob Roni (but seriously, get this lipstick)

Confident, trying-to-look-serious Roni

aand the other true(r) side of me...dumb faces, always caught off-guard, shy and totally awkward in front of a camera by myself Roni

Sorry for being such a narcissist. You wouldn't even believe how many pictures we have to take just to get a few that are dece (decent). I honestly suck at solo-subject picture taking. 

Here's Mikey and I though. :)

And one more self absorbed shot...for the road. But only because I've always wanted one like this:

Holy shet, now I'm not only uber conceited, I'm totally professional and stuff. No really, I just have always liked the way these kinds of cams look in front of mirrors. Don't ask me why. And I actually never twirl my hair. Ever. I also don't intend on picking up photography. I just needed a new regular camera, and this is the one our friend recommended to Mikey.

**I feel I must clarify that I am not a self-absorbed bimbo since some of my blog friends don't know ME in real life. Not that people that enjoy taking lots of pictures of themselves are bimbos.**

Alrighty, we're gonna go ahead and grab some late night din-din. 

Y'all have sweet dreams!

Love & bearhugs,

Roni

P.s. 2 more days till Texas! 

P.s.s. Tomorrow's my last final!! T.G.
