They Call The Wind Mariah

I can't change the direction of the wind,
but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.

100 year old Ruth’s Life and Style Tips1.”I never go to bed with my makeup on. that is number one. At night you must let your skin breathe.” 2.”I use a lipstick brush to paint on my lipstick—It stays on longer that way. I can also use a lipstick longer than anyone else because I can dig into it.” 3.”Every night before I got to bed I use Elizabeth Arden’s 8 hour beauty cream on my lips. You must keep your lips moisturized.” 4.”When it comes to fashion you must be aware of your skin tone. You don’t wear orange lipstick with a red dress.” 5.”I make myself go out everyday, even if its only to walk around the block. The Key to staying young is to keep moving. You are never too old to exercise.” 6.”Invest in Quality pieces, they never go out of style.” 7.”Don’t look at the calendar, just keep celebrating everyday.” 8.”I dress up everyday and I don’t wear blue jeans. I dress up even to mail a letter, you never know who you will meet along the way.” 9.I have been active my whole life. An old Elizabeth Arden Ad said,”If you want to look like this when you are 40 start when you are 20.” 10.I wake up every morning and say, “This is the day the lord has made.”(via Advanced Style)

I can’t wait to move. I want to be able to dress in linen button downs and pair them casually with a pair of khakis, or perhaps a pair of distressed jean shorts and brown sandals. I want to be able to throw my hair up in a cute messy bun and go to class, looking forward to cooking dinner with my friends later that evening. I’m looking forward to carrying bouquets of fresh flowers from the local whole foods store to put in a pretty glass vase on our breakfast table that I imagine I’ll eat a bowl of cereal from each morning after I go for a daily run. But preferably, I would like that bouquet to, occasionally, be from the gent.
