Obsessed With: Bright Lipstick
One of my favorite things I saw at this years Paris Fashion Week was bright lipstick. My personal favorite lipstick for a night out is VS Perfect Lipstick in Hot Spot. That stuff is Las Vegas proof, and makes wearing jeans and a t-shirt way cooler. Want more inspiration?

The Best Characters On TV
I’ve been sick recently so naturally I’ve been on Hulu whenever possible. Here are (I believe) the top 5 best characters on TV right now:
1. April Ludgate (Aubrey Plaza)—The dark one on Parks and Recreation. My favorite parts are when they bring her Puerto Rican nationality into the show, or when they feature her relationship with husband Andy.
2. Burton “Gus” Guster and/or “The Super Sniffer” (Dule Hill)—Shawn’s best friend on Psych. Whenever Shawn introduces him, it’s under different aliases, and their friendship is always on hilariously on point.
3. Kenneth Parcell (Jack McBryer)—If you ever watched 30 Rock you know that this NBC Page’s backwoods background and devotion to his job makes him the most hilarious person on that show.
4. Penny Hartz (Casey Wilson)—Does anyone remember Casey Wilson from SNL? Me either. As Penny on Happy Endings though, she’s awesome, although her lack of a forehead bugged me for a while. Also, it was my New Years Resolution to get everyone to know the awesomeness of watching Happy Endings. Watch it!
5. Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons)—I think everyone knows that Big Bang Theory would not be as popular without this character. Thanks to my mom for being an EBD (Educational and Behavioral Disorder) Teacher, I find special interest in picking up all his autism spectrum behaviors. Spot on.
Picture Thursday: Ocean
It’s finally warm enough around here to go to the ocean (80 degrees this weekend!). Now if only I can get rid of my cold…
What Should Be In A Man’s Bathroom
If you have a girl over to your house, if she likes you, she will look around at the products you have in your bathroom. Even if I don’t particularly like someone, I’ll see what products they have. Between living with men, dating them and being friends with them, I’m now as much of an expert as anyone. Some quick notes, if you have more than 10 products in there, I’m gonna think you’re high maintenance. Please throw away all those crummy cologne samples and that bottle of Axe. On the other hand, if you have only a tube of toothpaste, I’m gonna think you have everything else at the house you share with your wife, and that this is just where you bring your victims before you murder them. Here’s what you should have:
1. Kiehl’s for your face. Unless you have adult acne or something odd, just get a good product like this.
2. A Signature Scent. It’s OK to spend a lot of money on this because you wont be wearing it all the time. You’re also an adult so you wont feel the need to douse yourself with it. Just have one scent that when a girl smells it, she’s instantly reminded of how you smell when she hugs you.
3. The classic day-to day things like deodorant and toothpaste. Deodorant is the only scent you need on you on a daily basis.
4. Bumble and Bumble. Go on their site and find their styling tips for the hair you want, or just get Sumowax. Their products really just work great.
Done, that’s it. Stop hoarding random stuff you got 5 years ago from Walgreens.
What’s in your man’s bathroom?
Picture Thursday: Comet

Picture Thursday: Norway
Lately all my free time has been consumed with planning my upcoming summer trip to Norway. The more we plan, the more it become real. Today I was caught with how profound thinking “On June 29 I will be a quarter century old and standing in Fimriete, home of my great grandmother” was. Hiking boots; I need hiking boots.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
