Maine Girl

If you like looking at pretty things and live in the Northeastern part of The United States like me, Maine to be exact, you might be feeling a bit underwhelmed. It's so brown and gray around here! I am so ready for spring. As a matter of fact it's not very often that I run into someone who isn't ready for spring these days. Only twenty more days! The countdown has begun. In the meantime I will keep wearing warm clothes in spring colors. This Flowers And Stripes Scarf from Talbots seemed to do the trick! Click any of the photos below to SHOP my look!  And of course I accessorized with vintage jewelry from The Canny Canary  https://cannycanaryshop.com where you will always find your favorite jewels from the past!

There are tons of lip colors to chose from out there, and if you're like me, I have a drawer full of lipsticks that I don't even wear!  (I'm working on weeding those out.) Either the color is wrong or they tend to dry my lips out so I go with good old gloss instead. I have learned that the secret to buying lipstick is to not go cheep!  You really only need three lipsticks in your life, so why not splurge a little on them? You deserve it! Plus your lips will feel great wearing a quality lipstick, instead of like a pucker brush when you choose a cheep brand. Below I show you the three lip colors that you must own; a red, a nude and a pale pink. SHOP my three favorite lipstick brands! JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.

Unless of course, it is a pretty see-through lucite box like the one pictured below. You can find something like this on Amazon or probably at your local Target or Walmart store.  Or you can SHOP some of my favorite lucite jewelry boxes below!

This way I can see everything and I can colorize it and make it look like a collection. I also change it up from month to month with some new pieces that I come across so that I don't get bored of looking at the same thing.
