Summer Fashion: FlutterHabit #2 and #3

Flutterhabit recently dropped their #2 and #1 lashes in the Weightless Collection, so of course, I bought both of them on the same day.

Here's a comparison of the two styles; I like both of these looks but the #3 is definitely more dramatic. It is interesting; I've been watching photos on the FH Facebook page, and the lashes look so different on everyone. The #2 lashes are supposed to be a variation of the Sweethearts, but I feel like they look like a variation of one of the first styles I ever tried, The Winks! Let's see how many days I get with this new style!

Fall Fashion: I Found Aurora's Dress on Amazon

I posted earlier this fall about our idea to be Aurora Teagarden and Nick Miller for Halloween. We've watched a lot of the AT movies to decide on our outfits, and we finally decided to be Aurora and Nick from Heist and Seek . It's one of the movies where they are dressed up (the other one is Reunited and It Feels So Deadly .) In going down the AT rabbit hole, I found the designer of her dresses in both of these movies, a company called Dress the Population. And, I also found the exact dress on Amazon , but I decided that $200 was too much for a Halloween costume. But if you want to replicate her costume exactly, you can! For $40, I found a sleeveless sequined blue dress with a v-neck. You'll see it in our Halloween post. I may look for a strawberry blonde wig or I might just do a temporary pink-ish hair color. I'll wear my hair pulled back on one side and a dangly earring like she's wearing above, plus a super pink lip color. Fun f...

Fall Adventures: Hound of the Baskervilles

Last weekend, we wrapped up the trio of birthday celebrations for me! We started off the evening at a great wine bar in Coronado called "Wine A Bit," where we enjoyed appetizers and Cabernet. William even tried a glass that was $35! They have a nice little area where you can sit outside, and on Saturdays, they have live music. We enjoyed the local singers who were in our age range and performing hits from the 70's and 80's. No dance floor, unfortunately! After, we walked over to the Lamb's Player Theater for the performance. The theater holds 350 people, and the performance was outstanding...90 minutes of non-stop action with 39 roles played by just 5 people. I highly recommend this experience and am hopeful we can attend Legends of the 60's in early 2023. (It was a little dark in the theater and that's why this selfie is blurry!) I was happy that the weather was cold enough to wear this wine-colored sweater dress with the cut...

Fall Thoughts: "98% of All Diets Fail"

There are lots of numbers associated with the idea of trying to change your body size or composition. The obvious numbers like the number of the scale, your waist measurement, the size of your pants or your body fat percentage. There are the numbers associated with a best guess for how much of what food you should eat, i.e. 800 grams of fruits and vegetables or 13 ounces of protein (at least for a woman of my size.) And there are numbers connected to how you move your body: how many hours you should strive for per day, how many steps you should take, how many reps you should "leave in the tank" during a weight lifting session. There are also other numbers, including "the facts." For example: 80% of Americans aren't eating the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables. 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. And, my new favorite fact: "98% of all keto diets fail," which was what Dr. Robert Cywes, the Carb Addiction Doctor, who advocates for a...
