whats that smell?

hello loves & happy Friday.....so the other night it happened.....the bf & I were watching TV...TMZ to be exact & they were doing a story on the one & only....honey boo boo....the bf goes to me - what? who is this? clearly he has never been introduced to the horror of honey boo boo & it just so happened the show was on too...so i said - do you want to see the show, its pretty bad...he nodded yes....so i turned on TLC...it was the episode where honey boo boo/Alana.....yes she has a real name - did you know it was Alana? well she had entered an all natural pageant....no makeup, none of that usual beauty pageant stuff....

so i look over at the bf curious as to his thoughts on this show & honey boo boo in general....he was in disbelief...his mouth was open in shock...still staring at the TV he was able to utter - how did these people even get found? Then he continued to watch the show while giving his best 'red neck' impression shouting "we're gonna boom boom shoot"....so yeah its safe to say we will not be adding here comes honey boo boo to the rotation...but i do enjoy the bf & his 'red neck' voice.....

ok soooo.....have you heard of the product Scentsy? Well today I have a giveaway for you from Erin over at Scentsy...

I was new to this whole scentsy business & asked Erin to write up a little blurb about the product in case your new to it too!

Scentsy began with a simple idea — a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles — and quickly grew into one of the most successful direct selling companies in the world. This wickless concept is simply decorative ceramic warmers designed to melt scented wax with the heat of a light bulb instead of a traditional wick and flame. There are over 80 scents - a scent for everyone! - and many warmer designs/sizes to decorate your home or office space.

Plumage Plug-in Warmer
Erin began selling Scentsy in May 2011 & was thrilled to earn an all-expenses paid trip for two to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic in June 2012. She is currently working to earn the next trip (Oahu, Hawaii) for her honeymoon next summer! It all began with a small idea about being a reliable source for buying the products her family loved has sparked into a dream bigger than Erin ever imagined - paying for her dream wedding June 2013, being out of debt, and being able to give back to the organizations she is passionate about.

Today Erin will be giving a $25 gift certificate to her website. You can use that for a plug-in & scent bar or to apply towards the purchase of a large warmer...the choice is yours!

Pumpkin Premium Mid-Size Warmer & Champion Premium Full-Size Warmer

So you know what to do - & if you're new around here I highly suggest being logged into your gmail, facebook, twitter accounts - it will make your life SO much easier! Good luck!

whore bag

hello loves! thank you so much for all your sweet comments regarding the blog change....I'm so glad you all love it....& how amazing is Raven from yesterdays post? I seriously cannot get enough of that girl!
 
so as I'm writing this post I'm sitting here at my desk shaking my head because of what my mother approved of - for me to walk outta the house in...so I put on this dress that i got about 5 years ago...its still in perfect condition & still fits me...however I usually wear it in the winter with tights & boots, but since the weather is still over 90 degrees & a lot of my other dresses are dirty I figured I'd just wear this one...so I showed my mom the dress because I felt like it was too short...i ask her & her words are "nooooo not at all"...okay awesome I'm good to go...
 
so as I'm walking up to Starbucks i catch my reflection in the glass door & i am instantly horrified....what the f was I wearing & why the hell did my mom think this dress wasn't short?! its wayyy too short...& you know that feeling when you feel like everyone is looking at you? well that's how I felt walking into Starbucks...i felt like my legs were exposed for everyone to see...& don't bother bending over today, even a little bit because then I will be 'mooning' everyone...so thanks mom for making me feel like a whore bag in this super short dress...
 
OK moving on...so I've got some pictures today from my photo shoot after I got my hair done...& I have on 2 new items from my fall wardrobe this season...my shoes especially I am so excited to show you...i def broke the bank when I bought them...but I couldn't resist...
 
 Blouse: Free People :: Jeans: Willam Rast :: Boots: Sam Eldeman
 
 
Pretty simple yet chic outfit - skinnys tucked into the boots ( don't try to tuck in boot cut jeans, it will not happen or look good no matter how hard you try) a sheer blouse, rolled up a bit on the sleeves added a nice pop of color with the dark red polkadots & some short booties with fringe to add some flare....low key jewelry, low key hair...less is always more. this is my perfect fall outfit...

I love this girl & her blog...she keeps me laughing daily, so I am so happy she made a guest appearance on Messy.Dirty.Hair.......
Enjoy your next read.....


Oh hey messy.dirty.hair readers! I am so happy to be here today, as we all love us some Kelly. I'm Raven and I blog over at Don't Quote The Raven.

I am a mother of two, wife of one and lover of changing up the ol' doo. Since Kelly likes to promote "messydirtyhair," I thought what better topic to discuss here than just that?



And the age old question....



Do blondes really have more fun?



I feel I can answer this because I have had my hair every single color from A to Z (except ginger. No no no ginger for me.) No joke, my hairdresser tells me every time how she is amazed I still have hair left on my head.



Exhibit A:

And I haven't just switched from black to blonde and back once. No, I've done it upwards of ten times, at least. A girl can just never make up her mind, can she?



Anyway. Back to the question at hand. Blonde versus Brunette.



Which hair color got me laid most often?



Yeah ok, not going to answer that. But I will tell you this: my husband prefers brunettes, but he prefers me as a blonde. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing, but hey, I'll take it. (He also hates tattoos on women, and I have seven. Take that!)



Also, I know there is that stereotype out there that "blondes are dumb," but that's complete bull. I mean, just look at Pamela Anderson.



Ok fine, maybe not the best example but you get my drift.



What I'm basically trying to say is when it comes to which is sexier? I feel it's all in how you wear it. Granted, an ogre with bleach blonde hair isn't going to turn many heads no matter how confident she feels (hey, just being honest, don't hate the player...and you know the rest) attitude IS what is all boils down to.



So tell me...which do you think is better? Blonde? Brunette? A sassy attitude?



(Notice I left redheads out of the mix. Sorry, but I just can't go there. That is what hair dye is for people!)
