Zaftig Zebra in Fuchsia...another lovely Leota faux wrap dress. Fabulous fit & length...however, if I had actually worn this to work & had to sit down opposite someone...I would have worn a black camisole as it gaped quite a bit. The color & print...outstanding. 
I was going to wear this to wine tasting two weeks ago...but you know how it goes now...cancelled...it was my first event that didn't take place...then this dress sat around unworn because it's been weeks since I left the house & it's too bright & patterned to transfer well to teletherapy. So...I wore it to leave the house & have these photos taken. That's all. It makes me feel better to dress up & put make-up on...even if I have nowhere to go.
I now know how dogs feel...we're leaving the house...holy buckets!!!!!! I can't believe we get to go for a ride in the car!! Oh, look! Another dog! People! Squirrels!
My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Perversion, Kat von D eyeshadow in Hard Magic, Inheritance & Bahamas eyeshadow by Anastasia, Ofra liquid lipstick in Santorini, & Pompeii Purple nail polish from OPI. 
And here you have my life...online & mail is all I've got. I was SO excited when The Shitty Barn started adding shows (they haven't even announced shows yet because of the lockdown)...& then they immediately took them down. But...I can still listen to the bands that *might* still play...a girl can dream. My Play! box & my Ulta order for 1/2 price eyeshadow primer & lip primer...& what the heck...I needed free shipping so I added a couple 20% off eyebrow pencils. All of this make-up was stuff I actually needed...so I'm still sticking to my year of no new make-up. 
How are you all holding up? It was two weeks yesterday since we've been in quarantine. Other than spending too much time online (looking for curtain fabric)...what I've enjoyed most is all the online concerts. I can't even remember them all...Amanda Palmer, The Lowest Pair, Them Coulee Boys, Dan Rodrigez, Sean Hayes, Davina & The Vagabonds, Charlie Parr, Unwoman, Carsie Blanton...so fabulous! Of course, it's not the same as sitting in the front row...I need the energy & connection from a live show...but, it's what we've got right now & I'm grateful for it. All those shows...& I only took my first photo yesterday of Amanda...quarantined in New Zealand with Neil, Ash, & his nanny. 
Oh! And check out Alton Brown's YouTube channel...he & his wife have done two live shows of them cooking dinner...they are hilarious.
