Don’t be afraid of color! It’s so easy to feel timid when it comes to vibrant hues, but it’s simple to integrate these loud colors into your everyday life, essentially making you more comfortable wearing them.
Crystal Light Liquid is a new and easy way to start the process of revving up your everyday boring, clear water and make it flavorful and sassy. There are six flavors to choose from in Pomtini, Peach Bellini, Blueberry Raspberry, Iced Tea, Mango Passionfruit and Strawberry Lemonade.
I picked up the last three–Iced Tea, Mango Passionfruit and Strawberry Lemonade during my last shopping trip and am ridiculously impressed with the yum factor, as well as the fact that the vibrant colors being shot into the water totally amps up my mood. Look how the liquid filters in and just makes water happy!
While my mood is kicked into high gear with the Crystal Light Liquid, it inspires me to add a little bit of color into my life. Within my years of blogging, I’ve definitely become a lot more comfortable with color, though I still feel a little timid when it comes to wearing it in public. How did I begin to add color into my life? It started with flavorful drinks and fun foods!
A zero-calorie drink mix means you can have a little sweet snack on the side 😉
Then I moved on to my nails, tips and toes! Call attention to your digits by painting them anything from a siren red to a bright neon blue!
How could you look at that pic and not instantly want to paint your nails?! Seriously, go do it, you’ll feel amazing!
Are you comfortable with loud nails already? Then you’re almost there! Add in a bold lip of red, hot pink, ORANGE…whatever you feel!
After you’ve gotten cozy with these juicy shades laying game on your face and hands, head for the closet and begin to integrate color into your wardrobe. The easiest way to do this is with your handbag. Who doesn’t want an excuse to buy a new handbag?!
Ahhhh, my beautiful, vibrant, periwinkle purse has a tasty companion =)

I just get bored very easily with the same look.

The weather. If I know it is going to be cooler, I will use more lotions and jewelry. If it is going to be hot, I use very little lotion and jewelry to keep myself nice and cool!

It depends on my mood that day. Although I will have my nails done to fit into whatever I am doing. I had heart beat designs on my nails when my son had open heart surgery.
Results motivate me.
The seasons alter my style-I wear fun , bright colors in the spring, pastels in the summer…

Inspiration comes in many forms, but I can always count on a trip to the Farmer’s Market to inspire me- the colors, the yummy fresh fruit, even the brightly colored kids’ clothing. Something will remind me of a lipstick I love, a new shadow combination, a liner I have been neglecting.

When I am getting ready for the day,I try to always add on “splash” of something different. Maybe fun earrings, or a neat cuff, but something that I don’t normally wear with those same “boring” clothes 😉

Definitely my mood and my daughter–she’s only 5 but wants me to dress more colorful lol!
Thanks for the post! I do have to say though plain water or water with a touch screen of lemon is healthy. The artificial ingredients in these beverages can have serious side effects.

My mood, and time constraints alter my daily beauty routine! If I have more time and I’m feeling bright, I’ll go all out in pastels! It just depends on the day. 🙂
Seeing what works on people with similar features and coloring as mine influences or inspires me to alter my everyday beauty routine.
The weather and being outside enjoying nature has a big influence on my beauty routine, as that seems to directly influence my mood and energy levels!

I have the iced tea one and I like it a lot. I think what inspires me to alter my beauty routine is seeing what other bloggers are doing- I think we’re a bit ahead of the game compared to celebs 😉

Usually how much time I have and the number of times one of my kids walk into the bathroom while I am getting ready inspire or alter, ha! If no one walks in, I may experiment with colors & styles that I have seen mixed online. Otherwise it is khakis and a white top…which happens more often than I care to mention!
My friend Kris does….she always looks so vibrant and put together….she often reminds me and urges me to jazz it up with bright colors!
my son…for a little guy he knows what he likes..has told me to wear pink shirts and LOVES to help me pick out bold colored nail polishes
Samples do…I get to try something new, figure out if I like it and then buy it if I do!
My fellow bloggers influence me a lot. Also whenever a new product enters my life I’m ready to change.

The change of the seasons influence me to alter my beauty routine. I always need to switch to brighter colors in the spring & summer so I look at the featured brighter styles in the stores and choose my favorites.
My sister inspires me to change my beauty routine by trading products with me – ones she knows I’ll use. I give her ones she can use. We win so many that we can do that (we also get a lot of samples).

My inspiration to change often comes from stylists or those in the biz. I am particularly influenced by blog writers who post about their own personal experience with products and have photos to show us.
Pinterest has actually! I started to find tutorials that are actually not too difficult for hair/makeup tricks — so I have actually started using these tips!
