Happy Tuesday, friend! I realize we’re already halfway through the day, but I had a presentation earlier and spent the morning prepping for it. (It went well, by the way!) Whenever I have to do something big for work, I always like to have a little bit of armor on via makeup. This red lip and glittery bronze lid helped […]
