Things That Inspire and Get Noticed

(Sponsored Post)

I notice a number of things about people. I like to people watch, but mostly to get ideas on what to write about on my blog. Here are some of the things I usually notice in people.

Since I am not a fashion blogger, I don't mention much shoes on this blog, but I love shoes.  I notice shoes just like any woman, just because they do make (or break) the outfit.  If you know you have a good pair of shoes, even simple clothing would look fab and put together.

My jewelry armoire

I also like accessories, and like shoes, they can also make or break the outfit.  I bought this jewelry armoire that doubles as a full-length mirror on QVC.com, and it's great to store all my fashion jewelry.  I keep all my precious-stone jewelry in another case, but since I use fashion jewelry often, this armoire is best to see all my dangle earrings, necklaces, chunky cocktail rings all in one place.  It also makes selecting jewelry for my outfit a lot easier in the morning.

That said, I like looking at accessories of other people.  That way, I get some ideas on how to mix and match pieces.

Since this is a makeup blog, I like looking at other people's makeup to pick up some ideas on trends, as well as ideas for tutorials or Eye of The Days or Face of The Days.  I like to recreate looks I see on makeup company websites, face charts, or celebrity looks.

Lastly, I love to look at people's nails.  I heard from this celebrity (I forget the name) that women should always keep their nails looking good, because your makeup and nice clothes won't matter if your nails are dirty and not taken care of.  Also, as I age, I realize that polished nails make my hands look younger, for some reason.  I like fun nail art (glitter or nail stamp) for weekends and special occasions, or simple colored nails for work.

All in all, these are mostly the things that inspire me to write on this blog.  I get enamored by lovely nail polishes, nail art, and makeup on Instagram, and Pinterest, and I can just stare at those lovely creations all day.  However, those are only what I initially notice in people, but what truly matters is that they have a good personality.  I mean, pretty shoes, makeup and nails don't make the person - they make you get noticed, but being kind and cordial keep people drawn to a person.
