fluorescent lights.

thanks to jan, i realized that my camera's white balance was set to fluorescent lights. i did notice a strange icon on the screen, but didn't have time to dig up the manual until now. i'm hoping that was the reason for the bluish tinge i was getting on my photos. so, i have a week's worth of photos to sort thru...maybe some will be salvageable. my apologies for the inconsistent posts this week. for real-time updates, you can catch me mini-blogging on instagram @rockoomph.

i am loving this Covergirl LipPerfection Lipcolor. i have super dry lips that make it difficult to wear any lipstick, but my lips haven't peeled at all today. plus, i've had it on since 8am this morning and haven't had to re-apply at all...

even after lunch and two cups of coffee.

and some edible easter grass.

and some chocolates.

i'm off to color some eggs, hide some eggs, eat some eggs...

have a hoppy easter!

everyday, i've been having some combo

of these trader joe's chocolates...

pareils, cherries, acai berries, and mints.

shoes, victoria's secret (similar))

what are your plans for the weekend?

any easter traditions?

same but different.

as i was putting this post together, it hit me that this outfit looked strangely familiar. sure enough, after searching my archives, i did post this very shirt + skirt combo. i guess when i grab something leatherish, i automatically think of leopard.

i am wearing a different sweater and different shoes and different accessories...so i'm calling it a new outfit.

tinge.

i may have mentioned before that we do not have an h&m here.

i have never set foot in one. when my sister was in california last week, i received this text:

"is there anything you must have from h&m?

i have one hour at the mall."

i immediately scoured their website and started sending her pictures of things that i wanted. as luck would have it, they either didn't have my size or the online items weren't in the shop yet. so i told my sister just grab anything SPRING and MINTY and FLORAL. this top was her translation of that [haha]. she and i have very different tastes and styles. i did, however, enjoy all the trader joe's goodies she brought back.

pardon the purple-ish tinge in these photos. not sure what happened, and in trying to color correct them,

i turned out quite pastey.

i'm having so much fun on instagram.

if you are on, help me find you!
