Makeup Tips for Girls Who Wear Glasses

October 23, 2017 No Comments

I have worn glasses for several years, and I only started wearing makeup within the past seven years or so. I was a bit of a tomboy when I was younger, and only played with makeup from time to time. But the dilemma I face now is how to wear eye makeup that doesn’t make me look like I’m hiding two black eyes behind my glasses. When my nieces were younger, I would watch them as they applied their eye makeup, even though they are naturally beautiful and don’t need makeup. They carefully lined their eyes with kohl black eyeliner […]

Since “Eat Pray Love” came out in 2010, starring Julia Roberts as author Elizabeth “Liz” Gilbert, I have wanderlusted over the Indonesian island of Bali. The beauty of this island, as Julia Roberts rode around on her bicycle, drew me in from the very beginning.

Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral […]

August 9, 2017 No Comments

With her trademark smile, Julia Roberts burst onto the scene as Vivian Ward in Pretty Woman, and she hasn’t looked back. The two films I remember seeing her in before her Pretty Woman fame was Satisfaction (1988) and Mystic Pizza (1988). Julia Roberts once said about her success, “I’m just a girl from a little town in Georgia who had this giant, absurd dream.” (Source: IMDb) She played clarinet in the band in school and after graduating from high school, left Georgia for New York to become an actress. Well, this girl from the little town of Symrna, Georgia, has done some pretty amazing things […]
