"Love Me Like You Do" Inspired Makeup

The new film 50 Shades of Grey just hit theatres just a week ago and with new films comes new soundtracks full of exciting new music from great artists. My long time love Ellie Goulding is featured on the soundtrack with the tune "Love Me Like You Do" and to say I'm obsessed is the understatement of my year...and it's only February! 

With new music comes new music videos, and with new videos comes new makeup! Ellie kept it simple and stunning as per usual in the video with glowy, dewy skin and a subtle smoked out eye. Her trademark look. I decided to take a crack at it in my newest tutorial you can find here.

I tried out a new foundation in the video which I will be reviewing and will have my thoughts on it up very soon.

There's A River High In The Mountains

Ten points if you got that Roseanne reference.

Manic Monday Update: One of my absolute best friends turned the big 21 this past weekend and what better way to celebrate than at a winery. We were literally blessed with gorgeous 60+ degree weather, and can we talk about the view?! It was my first time ever going to a winery and I have to say I had a good time. We drank wine, ate a meatza pizza, and watched the majestic bald eagles soar into the sun filled sky. It was such a pleasant and unexpected change of pace for the usual overcast February day.

....Did I mention we went to a casino afterword? I spent $3 and walked away with a whole nine cents left. Womp, womp.

Hope all is well with you, hope your week turns out to be a fantastic one, all the love.

The One Where I Go To A Party

As Fergie so eloquently said "A litle party never killed nobody", and surprise parties are no exception. If anything, surprise parties are an even bigger reason to party. Recently my cousin celebrated the big 5-0 and I took the opportunity to film a quick get ready video.

I'm a really big fan of this style video and always have a blast going through my blooper segments. I truly think they are what make my videos. I hope you enjoy watching it and don't forget to head over to my main channel to check out my other videos. Let me know what your favorite party looks are in the comments- I'd love to know and maybe take suggestions for future vidayoos!

Please Allow Me To Introduce Myself

What better way to start off my first ever blog post than with an introduction? Any suggestions?....no? Then lets get on with it.

My real name isn't MissLoveLately. Shocker I know. My actual name is Megan Pickle...yes, Pickle. I promise, it's on all my legal documents and everything.

Now that we've gone through all the fomalities lets get to the gritty stuff. I live with the love of my life, and I know what you're thinking...it's not Harry Styles. As much as I'm sure me and every other woman, teen, and prebuscent with eyes wishes it were true, it sadly is not. sighhh. But I'm a survior, I'll be okay...now what was I on about? Ahhh yes, the love of my life Nonna Ragan. The 60 year old Italian spit fire who I have adored since I opened my eyes a chilly September evening.We live in a nice, not so spacious two bedroom home right outside of St. Louis. Not the most exoctic of locations but it's home.

The absolute, must know facts about me are as but not limited to the following: I am the Chandler of my inner circle. Yes, the one and only Chandler Bing. Witty, sarcastic, extreeeemely bad joke telling Chandler Bing from Friends. Can you tell what my favorite show is? My favorite color is black. I could truly live off bananas...that potassium filled fruit has stolen my heart. I am makeup obsessed, and a freelance hair artist with a love/specialty in mens grooming. I make YouTube videos. Who doesn't these days?!?  I don't have a favorite Disney princess. Cue the gasps...I know, I know, how dare I. Have I forgotten anything? Ahh yes, I, Megan Pickle, a 21 year old woman have lost my heart to One Direction. And I say it proudly. I've never been one to hide my latest obsessions, loves, or lusts, and this band is no exception. (insert heart eyed emojis for days...)

So there you have it. The basic of basics about the girl behind the blog.

Any questions? No? Great, now strap in kids, you're in for a wild ride.

Not really, my life is as ordinary as ordinary gets but it's my story, and I love it.
