Here I Am, So Take Me As I Am.

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful, safe holiday. While I was getting ready on New Year's Eve I was able to take the picture below in Photo Booth. My camera battery was dead...I really need to find my back-up. Anyway, I've been inspired by Nicki Minaj a lot lately. I must admit when I first heard of her I wasn't a big fan but I really do like her now. I admire her bold fashion/makeup looks and she's a total nutcase, so I like her even more haha...

I bought my Melody Ehsani earrings from Urban Outfitters. I had a discount code so I got them for a little less than the original price. I absolutely love them! They're really different from the other earrings I own and are definitely a statement piece.

I was originally going to wear my hair up, but wasn't feeling it so I wore it down, which is probably a good thing, because I was poking people with my earrings as I gave them their New Year's hug, so I don't recommend too much human contact when wearing these haha...

Anyway, the look I was going for is the one below. (I wish it was easier to tell from the picture above)...I'm wearing MAC's Pink Friday lipstick...which I thought was originally called Pink 4 Friday, but mine just says

Pink Friday :o/ I realized I didn't have any glitter for my lower lash line (because I'm not a huge glitter fan), so I bought an Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter eyeliner in Glam Rock. It went on really well and lasted all night (I applied two coats on each side).
