This look is super simple and perfect for your next date night.
I know that I'm super busy most of the week, so on my days off I love to sit at home in the most comfortable clothing, go jogging in my most comfortable clothing, hit the grocery store in my most comfortable clothing, hang out with my girlfriends in my most comfortable clothing...do you see a pattern here? I also love to do this all sans make-up. This doesn't mean I don't love fashion and getting dressed up and wearing nice clothes, because I do. I just also know it takes effort- and on a Sunday I'm just not into giving anything effort. So for all you busy girls, who love to take a Sunday off...or two, for all you busy girls who we can find in the grocery store wearing slippers (guilty) this easy make-up look is for you!

2013 was a whirlwind for me. I felt 2013 was a learning year filled with trials and tests; it was a year where I was yanked from my comfort zone, and then my comfort zone was demolished, blown up to be exact, and I was fed to the wolves (not to mix too many metaphors).
Although, at times, 2013 was uncomfortable it allowed me to keep moving, forced me try new things, afforded me new opportunities, pushed me to meet new and amazing people, and most importantly it helped me grow as a person. I am grateful to be moving into 2014 with a fierce courageousness, and burning fire to push myself further!
Here are 13 of our favorite Dusk & Rubies moments from 2013:
1. We launched our new and improved blog. We added new contributors, new topics, and a new look!
2. We launched our own website, Dusk & Rubies, for your shopping convenience!
3. We met with Wendy Williams and were given insider information about her Broadway debut.
4. We covered the Pencils of Promise white party hosted by Sophia Bush.
5. Our 2013 Fall Collection "How Country Feels" was made available to purchase in boutiques and shops like Queens City Cupcakes in Patchogue, New York.
6. We were granted insider access to QVC.
7. We met with CEO and founder Maureen Kelly, and the team behind Tarte Cosmetics who sent us these wonderful goodies!
8. Dusk & Rubies visited Ohheychrisi for their first blogger and jewelry crafting weekend!
9. We were invited to cover the private launch party of fashion ambassador, and international model Farah Zulaikha.
9. We created an advertising platform for small businesses called The Women Support Women Project, and worked with amazing companies, non-profits, shops, and women like Jenna Mule of Jenna Mule Photography, and Melissa Gaglio of Magic's In The Make-up.

Looking back at 2013 I can really see how amazing it was. Why is it always when looking back that everything seems so great? (**New Resolution: try to enjoy the moments while in the moment.)
Here is to 2014! May there be more moments to excite us, more moments to enjoy, and more moments for us to share with all of you! Happy New Year!

My trip to Pennsylvania to visit Chrisi, my close friend and lifestyle blogger of a blog titled ohheychrisi, was one filled with tons of experiences that I couldn't wait to share with my readers. One, being getting to spend some quality time at QVC headquarters with the models, and people behind Tarte cosmetics. My friend Chrisi Lydon is a model for Tarte, and you can see why below...she is absolutely gorgeous!
Not only was I able to go behind the scenes and see the inner workings of a major industry in America, QVC, but also meet some of the people involved with the network, including the brands that QVC hosts, primarily Tarte Cosmetics.
I was able to meet Tarte's founder, Maureen Kelly, and talk with: Tarte's make-up artist, models, and the people behind the brand that just make it work. I like to call them the Tarte Team. They were incredibly friendly-just a bunch of girlfriends having fun together, talking make-up, and all things fabulous!
A Little Bit About QVC :
1. Launched in 1986.
2. The West Chester, Pa.-based channel broadcasts live 24 hours a day, every day except Christmas.
3. It has been said that QVC offers about 60,000 products annually.
4. "Viewers call in an average of 15,000 orders per hour." (Selling on QVC: nice work if you can get it)
5. QVC (the letters stand for quality, value and convenience) has shipped more than 1 billion packages in the U.S. alone.
A Tasty Tidbit On Tarte:
1. Tarte cosmetics is a cruelty-free cosmetics line, meaning Tarte makeup and skincare is never tested on animals.
2. Tarte is always formulated without: parabens, mineral oil, phthalates. triclosan, sodium lauryl sulfate, and gluten.
3. Tarte offers a free sample with purchase through their Tarte Tokens Program!
4. Maureen Kelly is the owner and founder of Tarte, which she started in 1999 out of her bedroom apartment in Manhattan! (I was able to meet her- she is vivacious, full of life, energy, and so passionate about her product.)
I was lucky to snag some swag, and start my own collection of Tarte cosmetics. After working with some of the products, and playing around by creating a few new looks, I am pleased to announce that I consider myself a Tartelette! While I don't have super sensitive skin, I do break out from make-up that sits heavily on pores, or dries out my skin. What I love about Tarte cosmetics is that their products finish light, and I can wear them everyday without feeling like they're weighing heavily on my skin. Plus they're good for my skin health. Talk about a win-win.
So go head girl grab some! Here are my top 5 favorite products, all of which are available at: Tarte's website.
I would just like to say I am so impressed, and inspired by someone who started a makeup company, as impressive as Tarte, out of her Manhattan bedroom apartment. If you have a dream follow it my lovelies; you'll never know where your dreams will lead. Happy Thursday!
Stay Lovely,
