7 THINGS TO REMOVE FROM YOUR BLOGGER TEMPLATE


It's that time again - time for another post on cleaning up zee blogger template. I enjoyed writing the initial 5 Quick Ways To Clean Up Your Blogger Template and the follow up 5 More Ways To Clean Up Your Blogger Template. This time I thought I'd take a slightly different approach. As a reader, one of the things that overwhelms me when I enter a blog is too much clutter. So I've compiled a list of 7 different elements that are easily removable and won't be missed!

THE HALF BUN


I've fallen in love with a new hair style – the half bun. You may have noticed the mild obsession if you follow me on Pinterest. I don't know what it is about it. I mean, I know it's an unusual look, but I just can't get enough of it. Maybe it's the granola eating hippy in me trying to climb its way out. At any rate, it's what I've been sporting at work most days of late. I've enjoyed pairing it with either a graphic eye or a bold lip in an attempt to keep it looking somewhat edgy and not just like I forgot to wash my hair for a week and now I'm running with it. So what do you guys think? Chic or filthy hippy?

A HAIRY AFFAIR


I really decided not to hold back here what with the title and the sheepskin background in the photo. I'll admit I'm still a little bit squeamish about the topic of hair removal, but I reckoned if we're going to do this, let's do it right. A lot of us are blessed with a little more fuzz than we might desire, especially those of us that are Armenian... it's not as glamourous as the Kardashians make it out to be. So I thought it was due time to have a chat about a few options, really clear things up so we're not so *fuzzy* on the details. Good one Holl.

4 NEW AND FABULOUS


I've gone done it again. Somehow I've managed to compile a nice little group of new things to talk about. So, you know, that's what I'm going to do – talk about them. Unpredictable I am not. A quick side note first: The Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual, which I have hanging out in the photo above, is such a fantastic book! It's packed full of incredibly useful information about both skincare and makeup. I highly recommend taking it out of your local library.

WHY MAC DOES CONCEALERS RIGHT


I've never been particularly MAC obsessed. Not that they're not a great brand. They are. I just never went nuts on them. I don't have an enormous MAC eyeshadow collection and I've never tried any of their foundations, but one thing that I do find myself drawn to is their concealers. And for good reason. They just do concealers right. I think what makes them so fantastic is that it seems like each one is designed for a specific purpose – as though they're intended to attack a specific problem. I'll explain about the three that I own.
