Here’s the thing. Between, me, my two sisters and my mom, we have A LOT of eye shadows. (Believe it or not, Janey has her own stash of makeup in a pink plastic Caboodles organizer that used to belong to me in 7th grade.)

Over the years, Bailey and I have gone through many eye shadow ups and downs. Some, I’m not so proud to admit, were the works of my very own hands, but whatever. You live and learn, right.

These days, Bailey and I hardly wear eyeshadow. Surprising, right? In fact this whole year, Bailey has been a mascara-only type of granola girl. She also eats pomegranates by the dozen.

I think it has less to do with our love of eye shadow and more to do with the fact that we love to sleep. And the 10 minutes I’d spend applying makeup is much better spent in my cozy bed. Besides, I’m a senior now. Who do I need to impress?

Anyway– here’s the point. I was looking for a photo the other day and was amazed at how our eye shadow (and makeup overall) has changed over the last several years.

And because I’m a giving, sharing, helpful kind of person, I thought I’d share them with you (along with commentary from me and Bailey). Check out our photo gallery below:

I’ve been tuning in to Gossip Girl since season one and I still can’t get enough of their amazing hair!

Long, sleek, curly, shiny, accessorized… you name it— it’s been featured on Gossip Girl. While I’m not really a fan of Blair’s headbands (too preppy), I love Vanessa’s funky downtown hairstyles. And, of course, Serena and Blair never disappoint in the glossy, bouncy hair department.

Lucky for you, I’m a little bored tonight and threw together a little photo gallery of my most favorite hairstyles from the girls of Gossip Girl. Enjoy!

This weekend was homecoming and, as always, my friends came over to my house to get ready for the festivities.

My dress this year was a chiffon trapeze dress that had a high, beaded neckline. Because the neckline was the focus of the dress, I wanted to wear my hair in a pretty up-do.

I used this photo of Eva Longoria as inspiration:

I was so nervous because I haven’t had much luck with up-dos in the past, but this time my hair came out exactly as I wanted it to! I did my signature super-smoky eye with tons of lashes and a pale lip (just like Eva Longoria’s makeup above).
