what would you do...with red lipstick

this is the last official what would you do with kimberly for a while. she's having a baby, and doing other things. it's been a fun thing, and i want to continue. so..i'm looking for another host(s). leave me a comment or email aubreyzaruba@gmail.com if you want more information.

this month we want to know WHAT WOULD YOU DO...with red lipstick?

my lips are super dry so i don't always wear a lot of lipstick. i have been trying to wear more lately so this theme was perfect. i would do 2 things.

1. pick a matchy matchy outfit-red skirt, red nails, red lips

walmart shirt|agnes and dora skirt|nine west booties|hair extensions c/o irresistable me

2. go a little more neutral with the clothes and use red as an accent color for accessories and lips

old navy cardi and dress|dsw booties|scarf swap exchange

i'm wearing clinique matte crimson. red looks different on different people, but my friend meredith recommends these shades for everyone

what would you do...with orange?

it's the second wednesday of the month which means what would you do. kimberly and i pick a theme, figure out what we would do with the theme, and invite you to link up with us. this month we want to know...

WHAT WOULD YOU DO...with orange?

all of my holiday decorations are in storage. my house is already all decorated for halloween so i knew i didn't want to make a big craft project. i found some orange twine at target and decided on a glitter banner.

i haven't used the silhouette since i moved. i was excited to use it again. i cut out a basic pumpkin.

glue doesn't work that great with glitter so i used packing tape. it was easy and fast and worked well. 

voila-banner done

do you have any projects, crafts, outfits, foods with orange? link up below.

what would you do..with apples

since everyone but me is freaking out about fall, kimberly and i chose a little bit of a fall theme this month. we want to know

WHAT WOULD YOU DO..WITH APPLES?

i have recipe for sweet potatoes that is really delicious (and i'll share some other time). i decided to adapt that recipe to fit my 21 day reset and include apples.

baked sweet potato with apples

sweet potatoes

apples

avocado oil spray

cinammon

pumpkin pie spice

almond coconut milk (or cream)

1. slice sweet potatoes and apples

2. make thin layer in pan and spray with avocado oil

3. sprinkle with spices

4. repeat 2-3 times

5. poor almond coconut milk over the top. sprinkle spices again

6. bake 400* for about 20 minutes

so quick and easy. the apples and spices definitely sweetened it up a little. it definitely tastes like fall.

now it's your turn. link up all your apple recipes below.

what would you do...with paint

we picked the theme for this month a few months ago, and i immediately knew what i was going to do. we want to know

WHAT WOULD YOU DO...with paint?

i knew what i wanted to do, but i put it off again and again. i literally procrastinated until the last possible second.

this project was pretty simple but time consuming.

supplies

wooden blocks

craft paint-various holiday colors

holiday vinyl decals

sand paper

finish varnish

1. paint blocks in holiday colors (i painted all sides different colors) and let dry

2. distress edges with sand paper

3. apply vinyl decals

4. paint finish varnish over vinyl

these would be cute for holiday decorations. i plan to let kids play with them.

what would you do...summer drink

kimberly and i don't drink alcohol. we started talking about topic ideas for the summer and decided there aren't enough non-alcoholic fun summer drinks. our topic for the month is 

WHAT WOULD DO YOU...summer drinks

even before fun soda/cookie shops started popping up around utah, i loved dirty diet coke, all these shops have just fueled my love. by far my fave summer drink is dirty diet coke.

ingredients

diet coke

fresh lime

coconut syrup

squeeze fresh lime

add about 1tbsp of syrup

enjoy

it's so hot here lately (100+ degrees every day for weeks). i don't really feel like making dinner. some nights i prefer to drink a frozen drink and call it dinner.

ingredients

coconut almond milk (or milk of your choice)-1 1/2 c

watermelon-1 c

lemon yogurt-6 oz

lemon-fresh squeezed

ice

mix all in blender. i added more lemon juice after it was mixed to add more lemon flavor.

what's your favorite summer drink? link up your posts below. even though kimberly and i chose non-alcoholic drinks, drinks with alcohol are welcome too.
