I finally got my hands on the Naked palette!!! I wasn't after it like crazy but it was def on my mind. I'm so glad I did because a palette like this is a serious multitasker. I can't imagine not having this now! I love seeing it in the morning all gorgeous in all its purple glory. I got the one with the brush because it's what a palette should have and it retails for $26 alone!
I'm sure you've all seen tons of swatches online already. It is the way it's been described - colors have awesome payoff, no fallout and totally awesome neutrals.
I know I look a little crazy with the scarf thing. It was one of those bad hair mornings =p Not my best picture but ah well. I tried out some of the eyeshadows and Dark Horse is one of those really lovely browns that I think I'll be using a lot. Please ignore my undone brows =p
I'm wearing Stila Little Black Dress gel liner, Loreal Telescopic Mascara, Lancome Star bronzer, and Maybelline Pink In the Afternoon lipstick. I haven't been wearing any foundation these days because I felt like my skin needed to breathe and revive itself.
This past weekend I also went kayaking! It was my first time and it was totally fun and really tiring! You won't believe how sore my arms are right now from all that paddling. 2 1/2 hours out at sea (at the wharf, really) and paddling alongside boats and other sea enthusiasts. I had a grand time looking at the amazing sea otters in their natural habitat.

You look fine, silly. And yay for Naked! Also, those seals (?) are so cute!
OMG can't get enough of baby seals. Just can't.
I'm starting a bunch of Naked tutorials on my blog, so definitely feel free to check them out! http://procrastinatingpretty.blogspot.com/2011/06/laura-mercier-lets-get-naked.html
Ah cute seals!! ^.^ i love darkhorse too.. and smog!!
I like the new header picture for your blog!! :-)
Nice pics! And OMG I seriously need to get my hands on the Naked palette, but I really shouldn't right now.
Kayaking sounds intense! But definitely something that seems interesting to try. Hope you have a speedy recovery =P
I don't know why but even though I don't wear eyeshadows I still really want the Naked palette a lot. I think I have a bad obsession! =X But everyone makes it sound amazing.. I really wish they kept the double liner but I guess a brush isn't too bad as well. Please do a review if you can ^__^
yayyyy!!! you jumped on the Naked bandwagon ^o^ kayaking looks so fun! too bad I can't swim LOL >_< so i'm a tad hesitant to try
Awww otters and... seals??
Gotta love the marine life but I'm terrified of small boats. I feel the most vulnerable in paddle boats. I always imagine a shark tipping over my boat and eatting me :S
seallll! :)
i thought you were spotting the bohemian look with the scarf ;)
YAY! I'm glad you got the naked! =D You'll love it.

I'm so jealous! when am I ever gonna have the UD Naked palette! I need a miracle!
the otters are so cute! looking forward seeing your looks with that palette!
Kayaking! man, I haven't gone in a looooong time. Oh wait, that was canoeing, and I never paddled. hahaha. And I've wanted the Naked palette forever, but just ended up buying other palettes for some reason... Now that i'm on a clothing/accessory shopping fast, i may cave in and finally buy it!

The naked palatte still picks a string of curiosity in me, but I find I haven't been using eyeshadow lately, much less eyeliner :S Vacation must have made me lazier than I was.
It looks like you had a great time. The pictures are wonderful (the clouds look so cool in that one picture) and the sea otters are so cute!!
Gorgeous look! Cute seals. I love that palette! :)
I've had the Naked Palette for so long, but I haven't touched it. Maybe I should!
I love kayaking, the seals are sooo cute. (:
BABY SEALS! Whiskers! I bet your arms would get ripped from kayaking like that regularly!
What a fun weekend! =D I like your FOTD. Would you believe that I've yet to own this palette? o_O
The colors on that palette look gorgeous. Love the FOTD. :) Aww cute seals!
I like your pictures :D
I want the naked palatte too, I was going to spend a some of my paycheck on it but I ended up not getting it. I don't know how I feel about the shimmery shadows.. heard there's only 2 mattes? ahh, decisions, decisions.
Beautiful pictures from kayaking! ^_^ Hope your sore arms feel better soon!
I actually think the scarf is quite cool =)
The scarf on your head is actually cute :) Man, I guess I'm the only one who doesn't have the NAKED palette haha..
aww i want those palette too..:) cur photos by the way...following you now...hope you can drop by mine too...cheryl:)
Omg you are SO gorgeous!!! I love Naked palette, you should do more looks with it!:) CUTE seals!<33
1) Naked Palette! I just got it and totally agree with you, the best neutral palette around.
2) I love kayaking! Unfortunately it isn't very exciting to kayak in Singapore. I've done it while traveling in NZ and Australia. I feel so close to nature and at peace. The otter pic is very special. You are lucky to be able to photograph it. These are things worth living for.
