I'm not a fashionista (I've never been sure about that word) I don't wash my face on a daily basis, my hair is often left unbrushed and make up only seems to touch my face on special occasions.
I do colour my hair on a semi regular basis ( I let the roots and the now abundant silver grow in until it's the only thing I see and then out comes the colour); but other than that I'm just not that keen on primping and preening which is kind of a weekness for me and also kind of a strength I suppose. I don't fret too much about how I look and if I break a nail well then I guess it's time to trim them.
Lately with the blues hanging around I've been putting more thought into my personal appearance, I coloured my hair last night (yup the roots were a good 2 inches long) and I've started moisturizing the face and adding a little shadow when we head outside and I bought a new pair of shoes yesterday (they were a cute little pair of bubblegum pink Airwalk Kicks) but they are new shoes and that has got to count for something.

That's interesting. I am not a fashionista too. But I wash my face and put makeup everyday too as I need to look my best for my day job. Nevertheless I have messy hair and I never blow dry before going to bed...

I'm hosting a giveaway on my blog!

When I was in high school...and had permed hair to my butt...I could spend HOURS getting ready each morning.
Now...I'm lucky if I decide to comb my hair . Mommyhood does that to you, I'm convinced. LOL
