Our bounty

I am so impressed by my husband's green thumb!
My job is to pick the veggies, but we are running out of room!




What I Wore: glasses- c/o 10/10 Optics in NYC Designer: Faniel, lips- NYX Lip Lingerie "Push Up", necklace- custom from Alicia Lynn Jewelry, tank- Walmart, shorts- Modcloth, sandals- Target



Not only does he have a green thumb,
 but he can turn it into a huge variety of meals!
I love his spaghetti sauce!

After dinner we have been taking some family car rides with the pug muffin,
sometimes also with the bully, but she hates the car.

She is much more comfortable under the table cuddling with her brother =)

into the interview

{source}

I feel like bloggers don't really discuss interviewing for jobs a lot,
maybe the are self employed as entrepreneurs, settled in a job, etc. etc.

 Well, I am back in the market. I am currently searching for a teaching position,
High School Biology in NJ- know of any openings?
I have probably already applied, but let me know anyways!

I have blogged other teaching interviews in the past,
 that outfit was for a "second round interview" where I couldn't wear "my usual"

And last year I was looking for a new career,
& I had an interview with a marketing company and wore something a little different than my usual.

I also met with a fashion recruiter in NYC last year, see what I wore to that interview/meeting HERE!

So I wanted to share my typical interview attire,
remember this brown suit from 2011?!
Back at it again with the brown suit!
This is my go-to.

I still can't believe my mom thrifted this at a school store for like $8?!
It is perfection!



What I Wore: glasses- c/o Firmoo, lips- Buxom "Hooligan", necklace- gift from my Nonna, top & suit- thrifted, heels- Walmart, bag- 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target


As for makeup, I keep it usual with a nude/pink lip.
I also try to keep my nails a neutral color too.
 Unfortunately this interview did not result in a new job,
on to the next one.

This meme from saboskirt on instagram resonated with me,
from blogging to applying for jobs I am online 24/7

Fingers crossed a new opportunity is just waiting for me around the corner...

What is your interview go-to?

Any rituals you want to share?

Please send some good vibes my way!

=)

Humble Beauty Opinion #33, my everyday makeup!

I feel like this summer I have been knocking out some posts
 that I have been meaning to write since the beginning of this blog, 
5 years ago- almost 6 years now! 

Here is my everyday makeup routine!

You can see all my favorites products from my Humble Beauty Opinion Giveaway from Nov 2015

I laughed at this Ladylike BuzzFeed video called "How much money do you spend on makeup?"


& then I was like, "Wait, how much do I spend on my makeup bag?!"

Well based on my step by step procedure, I spend around $384...
right around the amount that the ladies in the video spend...

But no shame in my makeup bag... not to mention my makeup desk with all my palettes...

I thought this graphic from Influenster was interesting
to see what other steps, colors, and brands -other people choose


My wishlist for this month, as if I don't have enough makeup:

I want both of these fall Wet n' Wild palettes, the green & red shades are awesome

I also fell in love with this Bite beauty lipstick in "Kale",
I mean, who doesn't need a green lipstick...

Empties:
from left from right: Skinfood in "BeautyBerry"- came with a recent online order, I loved it! / Tea Tree facial mask- I get these from the Korean grocery store H Mart / Curel "Itch Defense" body wash & lotion sample- not sure if these actually worked because they are small samples but they were hydrating / dr. brandt "microdermabrasion skin exfoliant"- very small particles, deep exfoliation / dr. brandt "anti-aging mattifying lotion"- great for hot summer days, not that hydrating though / dr. brandt "pore refiner primer"- love this primer, one of the best / e.l.f. "High Definition Undereye Setting Powder"- good setting powder but doesn't make a huge difference I don't think / L'Occitane "Creme Divine"- got this from an online order, loved it! / Anastasia "Clear Brow Gel"- definitely strong stuff, like hair gel for your eyebrows, I have had this for probably a few years now... / Lush "Celestial" facial moisturizer- love this stuff! Lush does moisturizer right / Jersey Shore Spa "Anti Aging "Lip & Hand Polish" in Vanilla Bean- I got this from ipsy, I ended up using it as a whole face scrub, I loved it, helped with the dry skin around my nose / liquid blendercleanser- I think this stuff does help clean makeup brushes and the beauty blender but I prefer my Dr. Brommers soap / pixi "Glow Tonic"- not sure I see the hype  with this, probably won't repurchase / Dove "oxygen moisture" shampoo and conditioner- LOVE these, will get a set when my stock runs out / Honeysuckle Jasmine candle from Walmart- LOVE, will be great for spring! / Zinfandel and Vanilla Sugar candles from Dollar Tree for $1 I enjoy these candles

What are you loving this month?

How much is YOUR makeup bag worth?!
Count it up and let me know!

leopard, floral, and more leopard

If I could layer more leopard on, 
I would. 
Let's be honest.




What I Wore: glasses- Jean LaFont, lips- Hard Candy "Cherry Blossom", necklace- gift from Nonna, top- Target, shorts- Madewell, flats- JCrew, bag- Dooney & Bourke {thrifted}




I love this little garden at my Nonna's,
We are growing like 15 pepper plants in our garden that Nonna gave us the seeds,
they are doing so well!

& these flowers are beautiful!

This snapchat filter is how I look in my natural habitat...
Follow along on snapchat @emmasglasses {although I am not exactly sure how this works...}

A leopard, in glasses!
