"Men are like mascara, they run at the slightest display of emotion"

(a lil joke)

I don't really like brown mascara so I usually stick to black, actually it's called 'Blackest Black.' I wanted to try something NEW and my friend Kimmy (Click here to: check out her blog) suggested BLUE. I must say I love it! It's fun, flirty, and eye popping. Plus my favorite color is blue.

Let's zoom in up close and personal shall we?

Here are a few of my favorite makeup products:

1. Face: Makeup Forever at Sephora

2. Cheeks: Sweet as Cocoa by Mac Blush

3. Eyelashes: DiorShow in Azure Blue Mascara

4. Lips: Clear Lip Gloss

5. Eyes: Black Eyeliner

5. Eyebrows (Wax vs. Thread): Thread, Thread Salon NYC

P.S ... I went to Zara and picked up this really cute top and these white pants

So I told my mom i found these great WHITE pants and she had a strong reaction to it.

This is exactly how our conversation went down.

Jonesy: I got these great white pants on Sale at Zara woop woop!

Mom: No white until Memorial Day!! It's the rule

(PS: I never said I was going to wear them now)

Jonesy: Where did that rule come from anyway?

Mom: offically beginning Memorial Day... white is on again

So after a few minutes I realized my mom has no clue where this rule came from. Like many of us, we heard it, followed it and honored it. Though, isn't it important to find out where these "rules" come from?" Let's explore.

So why aren't we supposed to wear white after Labor Day? Check out this great story on Time.com

So what do you think about the rule?
