Friday “ChiqueNess”

A sweet, unexpected text & cute pic from a friend this morning, inspired me to document my day in a photo collage. First, I treated myself to a semi-private Pilates session on the reformer at Chaturanga. My muscles may be crying tomorrow, but there is nothing better than a good workout to get the blood flowing.

As some of you know, I have been on a mad hunt for colored jeans for Spring. I was thrilled to finally find bubble gum pink skinny jeans on an unexpected trip downtown to H&M; love when that happens.

Have you seen the great InStyle color cards sponsored by Target’s “Color Changes Everything” campaign in this month’s issue? I tore them out for inspiration. If you haven’t, you must as they are a great reference for how to combine colors for Spring!

Lastly, I am hooked on Loreal Infallible “Eternal Black” eye shadow. My newest beauty tip is to wear a daytime modified smokey eye and tinted lip balm, but there is nothing worse than eye shadow that smears and creases. I put this on in the am and by evening it is still intact. It is waterproof and smudge proof; the best $7 investment I have made in a while. Now that is “Chique”.
