Subscribing! Love your writing style.

I ordered this maxi skirt online and got it yesterday~ I love it~ it's tan and black and it's 94% poly and 6% spandex! Pair it with a black tank and a black sweater in the evenings~perfect!

 

That is gorgeous!

There are a lot on nomorerack.com too!

A more fitted tee looks good with them or if you can pull it off - a cropped tee. I usually just wear a tee or a tank.

I am also 5'2. I am able to roll the top to make them a bit shorter! Being short isn't very fun where you're shopping for bottoms!

I am seriously in love with maxi skirts! I have three that I have bought for my upcoming cruise and I am looking at 2 more. I bought a teal one for $4 - it was on clearance because it had a small stain. The stain was so easy to remove, too!

Here are the other two that I have bought.

As a nursing student, I have to wear white scrubs for my clinical days. Nude/flesh toned panties are a must!!!

Can't wait to see how it turns out!

Glitter is the herpes of the craft world...

Thanks for the review! Looking forward to using FTTF on the Magic.

The Magic was great, best cruise I've been on so far but that had a lot to do with my awesome family. The room was was huge, like having a suite without paying the price. I took pictures of the room and will post them soon. I've been really busy with work and moving but I need to slow down so I can plan our next cruise, hopefully on the Magic after it's upgraded next year.

Thanks for updating! Glad y'all had a great time and happy to hear how great the room is.

Subscribing to this one! We're going on the Magic in May.

My husband and I have heard so much negativity about Carnival. But we're still giving it a try. The Magic looks like a great ship, I am very excited about the room we have, and all around - I can make my own fun!

(I did look into Royal Caribbean, but their prices were more expensive at the time we were looking. So price won this time around!)

I think you need to add more fat into your diet and use less artificial sweeteners. Those can stall or slow weight big time.

I'll be in this room in about 2 weeks. I can't wait!

How was the Magic and the room? Hope y'all had a great time.

Can you give a sample menu of what you eat? And don't get too caught up in the keto strips. If you're drinking lots of water, they don't alway turn color.

I am bringing 2 outfits for both formal nights. The dress I am wearing on board will be the dress I wear for that evening. And then I have 4 other outfits for the rest of the dinners. I am probably overpacking, but I don't care. I like having options. ;)

I am bringing a crossbody for boarding and port days and a couple wristlets - an evening one and a daytime one.

Champagne123 has the right idea! If you're going to wear them, I would wear a shoe with some height on them or you could end up looking frumpy.

The link above is an article I just read a few minutes ago. A lot of these tricks though work for dark circles. Use a concealer a shade lighter than your skin tone. Also, blending some eye shadow underneath your eye conceals some of the darkness. Just opening the eyes up is a great way to deflect from a dark under eye.

Abercram, I think large soft curls for your hair and large, shimmery chandelier earrings would be great. No other jewelry necessary. Maybe nude pumps and a smoky eye? Have fun! The dress is really pretty!

Agreed! Black shoes would look good as well, but only if they're satin or patent with some shimmer to them.

I have a Baby Bliss I found at TJ Maxx. Completely worth it!

With yoga pants I go with boy shorts. Everything else I wear Bali's microfiber full brief in nude. They may be considered granny panties, but I have no panty lines.

 

Now, if I am doing yoga or pilates at home, then it's commando for me as well. In public, then I have to wear panties or I hear my mother's voice in my head "make sure you wear clean underwear in case you have to be rushed to the emergency room". I can only imagine her horror if I ended up there in commando style. :eek:

Lol! I'm a nursing student who's worked quite a few ER rotations. I promise that no one is checking out your undies or lack thereof. But even knowing that, it still won't stop me from wearing a clean pair. =)

These are my favorites.

I wear them under my scrubs (whites one!), leggings, and workout pants - no panty lines! However, you do have to wash them on a delicate cycle. I wash mine in a lingerie bag when I wash my bras. The first time I bought these I didn't wash them on delicate and the cotton lining fell apart.

I also suggest looking on You Tube for makeup tutorials. They have really good ones for beginners and you'll still look and feel like a million bucks.
