Makeup Capsule Collection
When it comes to makeup, my daily routine carries over from season to season. Sure, I’ll try a new lipstick and eyeshadow shade each season, but for the most part I like to stick with the least harmful ingredients (paraben-free and sulfate-free) that work with an active lifestyle. Last fall I made a fall capsule wardrobe for the first time, and liked it so much I thought I’d try a makeup capsule collection as well. It all starts with waterproof eye makeup.

DIY Beaded Ball Earrings
One of my favorite diy projects to date, these diy beaded ball earrings are inspired by Rebecca De Ravenel’s Bon Bon Earrings. With an extra beaded twist, my ombre version brings a little more sparkle and festive holiday spirit. The base of these earrings are glitter mini Christmas ornaments! They make for a really fun holiday craft, not to mention the perfect accessory for any holiday outfit or to jazz up an everyday look. Maker be wary: these earrings are a little heavier than the Bon Bon ones, because they are embellished with so many beads. You can always substitute sparkle embroidery thread or plastic seed beads to make more…
