Bangin'

Beauty Week Continues...
Today we discuss BANGS!

There is always a time in every girl's life when they need a change,
and the easiest most inexpensive way to accomplish this is by cutting some chic bangs.
Here are a few I think are totally major
 
I do love the side sweep bangs but because of a lovely cow-lick I inherited 
   from one of my parents
I cannot pull it off without looking like a fool. 
I'm jealous of you cute girls out there (you know who you are)
that look amaze with them.

Earings

Maybe I shouldn't tell you?

I got them at the dollar store
Go me

Good deals just make me feel so warm and happy inside.

toodle-lou!
