A Beach Bound Journey

I closed my eyes today and found myself on beaches upon beaches of white, powdery sands. These beaches headlining my visual journey seemed endless as they faded to the palest of blue. My floor, or shall I say sand length, ivory linen dress, flowed around me as I walked the shores. The wind's salty breeze kissed my lips. Narrated only by the faint song of a seagull, I made my way down this mind made miracle. Relaxed and renewed, I seemingly glided along where the crisp, cool waters met the warm sands. Light ocean sprays whispered to me softly. Loveliest of all, I stepped aside myself at the end, only to watch as I walked into the forever blue.
...left on the beaches for an eternal stroll.

Today's visual has left me with a strong want. Kat's Road Trip- A Cali Bound Beach Journey
Can't wait!

Kat Learns Something New

...and shares with YOU!

This past Saturday my co-worker and friend, who is a professional make-up artist having done the faces of Channel 13 News for years, and myself, were chatting. As she applied my makeup for the night's festivities, I couldn't help but wonder why she hadn't applied moisturizer and primer before my foundation. Yes, I dedicated a post to primer recently :). Had she forgotten? Primer is a NECESSITY! Kat learns something new. After voicing my concern, she explained to me that primer and moisturizer can create a barrier between your face and the makeup. BING! Foundation and powder ever so disappointingly settling into lines, having to reapply 3 times a day, flash-back! Not applying these two products allows for foundation to, in a way, 'absorb' into skin, giving a more natural/longer lasting finish. Of course, primer and hydration are still at the top of my list as go-to products, BUT! Balance is key, as I always say, and everyone's canvas is different. I was sold while, evening turned to night, and night became morning, my face was still in place. Even after a healthy dose of cocktails. So, give it a go! See if your face responds better to primer or without. Nothing more refreshing than discovering a new way to brighten our face! Live. Learn. Wear. LOVE :]

Katie Loves Cola

Fizzy, fizzy. Ice cold and yummy!
I love Coca-Cola, it's good in my tummy
A healthy addiction, it does me right
Gotta get the soda, morning, noon and night

Skippin' on the cereal, skippin' on the muffin
Who needs breakfast, I'll take a Coke when I'ma rushin'
I like it best in a can, but I take it any other way
I've been counting, I drink seven sodas a day!

Maybe I should stop, get a handle on this habit
Just joking, if I see a Coke, I naturally grab it
Bring it on ice, serve it to me cold
Give me my Cola, as it never gets old!

I love Coca-Cola

The Girl Wears Pearls

New trend alert!

Ladies, hope you've been keepin' up wish fashion. If you have, you're never two steps ahead of me, but if you're good, we may be n-synch! Girls in pearls. Sweet, sexy, feminine and ultimately...POSH! Flesh toned pinks, natural ivories, soft peachy tones, button pearl earrings paired with cascading pearl necklaces are FLOWING through all boutiques worth visiting right now. These hues go beyond sexy femininity, as they truly mesh well with all skin tones! Pearl accessories are truly classic yet these shiny little gems have made their way to the sexiest of ensembles as of late. There is no fashion update I love more than classic meets the modern look of now.

Get sexy, get pearls!
