.welcome to FussyJussy.

.a blog about all things fussy: my life, reviews, beauty.

.the title of my blog, FussyJussy, was a name my mom gave me as a child because i would often throw tantrums... and made her seriously consider not having a second child. she did though, his name is Jake. he was a less-dramatic child. what can i say? demanding little girls grow up to be strong women... right?

Vacation...

MIA.

I haven't done a post in a couple weeks due to strict orders from myself to not do anything on my Holiday Vacation. I even extended my vacation by a week to make sure I get a full rest so that I am ready to tackle 2010 full throttle. I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays and is excited to get a fresh start in the new year. I return back to reality on January 6th and will do tons of updating then! Have a SAFE, happy, and fun New Years...

Sending love your way <3

The little things...

Be grateful for the small stuff.

We take so much for granted far too often. Life moves very fast and it's important to remind yourself of the little things that are so special. Here are the little things that make my life so fulfilled...

*my little puppy that adores me
*a warm bed to sleep in
*having a husband to come home to everyday, who makes me breakfast when I'm running late in the morning
*the ability to hear & see
*hair
*my freedom
*food when I want it - especially dessert
*having a beach close by
*adding to people's happiness anyway I can
*work
*a view of the Hollywood sign to remind me everyday of where I am and why
*hardwood floors
*friends I can lean on
*a great sense of humor
*optimism
*rhythm & the love to dance
*good taste
*the love I encounter everyday of my life

I hope you take time to stop, look around, and realize all the good that is amongst the bad in life. The potentiel is there in everything and the beautiful gift of free will puts us in the driver's seat of our destiny... with a helping hand always there whenever we need it (a little thing I call, the Universe) I don't believe life is predetermined or a plan has been written with our name on it - if so, what would be the point of free will in the first place? We are given the ability to choose for a reason... whatever or whoever created us obeys our choices and assists us in helping our choices & dreams come to fruition. All you have to do is choose :) Choose to be happy, choose to be positive, choose to love, choose to live an unlimited life where anything is possible...

Happy day! Sending love your way...xo.

Holiday Makeup Looks...

Loving Creativity.

As you can see...I have created a new FussyJussy banner using a great website called Wix. It was free, super super easy and very fun. I want to give my a blog a more professional look and will hopefully be doing some major renovations in the new year. I wanted to do a quick post on some of my favorite holiday makeup looks this year to give you ladies some inspiration for upcoming parties and family get-togethers. Take a looky loo below for some yummy eye candy...


Miss Fox
( i think this could be my inspiration this season, i love the lip colour! MAKEUP FOR EVER has tons of shades similar to megan's )

 
Miss Seyfried
( this entire look is so glamorous and striking. looks like she's used a pale purple lip to go along with plum lined eyes )


Miss Stewart
( if you decide to do a heavy eye look like kristen's, opt for a pale lip to keep it clean. here is the link to KANDEE's tutorial for this look! )



Miss Portman
( this look is simple, yet elegant. you can "holiday" it up by using frosty blues, silvers and golds. natalie's under eye is lined in gold and fun bottom lash extensions have been added. )

Until (probably tomorrow) toodaloo.....xo.

Art gifts...

Holiday Gift Ideas.

Since holiday shopping has already begun, I thought I'd post some ideas for inexpensive, yet beautiful gifts! Since Etsy is all about home made-ness, there are some very unique pieces of art. I think art is a wonderful gift because it can be interpreted in many different ways, it acts as a nice reminder of the person who gave it to you, and you can keep it forever. Whether you create it yourself or purchase it, art is thoughtful, intriguing and best of all, cheaper then brand name clothes, purses, wallets, watches, and electronics. As my mom reminded me the other day, the holiday season is not about the amount of money you spend on gifts -- it's about appreciation for the world around you, the people in your life and taking the time to remember what it means to be a human being. Gifts are wonderful ways to remind those in your life that you love and appreciate them. Although it would be fun to spend hundreds of dollars on gifts, most of us are not qualified at this point in time, to do that. Get back to what gift giving means, it's truly the thought that counts, not the cost. Art is a personal gift because it requires a lot of thought when picking it out. Take a look at some of this great art. I've put together some of my favorite pieces from a couple different artists...

1. Dream, $30
3.Life...,$25
4. Love..World, $28




I hope this enlightens you in some way :) Happy Shopping everyone...<3
