True Lies

My blog title: truth or lies?

How, you might be asking yourself, is it possible that I find myself in a crowded el car in Chicago in the middle of the summer?

Good question, world. Good question.

Saturday already?

Well, guys. I had a great time in Boston. I'm writing to you, once again, from an airport, but that's how you like it, right? To imagine me as a stylish jetsetter? That's what I thought.

Sorry for the silence, but pictures will be forthcoming. I just couldn't pull myself away from the fun! The weather was absolutely beautiful (most of the time), the food was delicious (except for a Hot Pocket I ate), and I'm enormously proud of my best friend of 18 years for graduating summa cum laude yesterday!

I hope you've all had a wonderful past few days, and I leave you with a picture of my current view of Massachusetts, as well as a picture of the dress worn by the woman sitting in front of me yesterday. Yes, that is a velour dress with glitter on it.

There's a jet plane, but I don't appear to be leaving.

You all wish you looked this good while your flight is delayed. The people in the terminal must think I'm hungover.

So while I keep hanging out here in beautiful O'Hare International Airport, why don't you share some of your fun travel stories with me? I know you all have them! Nothing like a little commiserating to help the time pass ;)

Love,
Harris

Strawberry Fields Forever

I'm coming to realize the flaws of the Blogger app for Android phones, as I'm finding it a little frustrating to make my posts exactly as I like them. It's good to try something different every so often, though, so I'm going to stick it out this week and keep on truckin' from my phone.

As you may already know, I am in love with NARS cosmetics. Their colors are simply fabulous. Here I'm featuring one of my favorite lip glosses of theirs, Strawberry Fields. It's this beautiful deep magenta color that stands up really well against the darkness of my hair.  I've layered it over NARS lipstick in Scarlet Empress, which is very similar in color but lacks the high gloss of the top layer.

Enjoy the insane pictures. I tried taking them in the bathroom at my job, but they are not kidding when they say flourescent lights are really dark.

I'M SO CONFUSED

The thing about the weather here is that it will screw with you mercilessly until you no longer have the ability to guage accurately what clothes you ought to be wearing.  You're thinking, "But Harris, why don't you just calm down and take it all in stride (and just show us what you're wearing today)?" Well, I'll tell you, I wish I could, but when you look at the forecast and it tells you it's going to be 48 degrees, so you put on your wool coat and your Uggs because you just don't feel like being cold anymore, and then it turns out 48 has decided to feel a lot more like 58 so you're sweating, it leaves you feeling a little ticked off.
Whew, glad I got that off my chest. In spite of everything I just said, at least it's not cold, and I will probably get to go outside to enjoy the weather firsthand at some point, rather than just staring at it through the window while I sit at work.
At any rate, happy Tuesday everyone! I leave you with some images of my morning, and I promise this blog will stop being about the weather soon. Do you have any greivances against nature lately?

Mobile Blogging

In light of the fact that I'm going to be in Boston for the second half of the week, I have decided to dedicate this week to blogging on the go. As you can see, it's a lovely day here. I'm not even wearing a jacket!

Everyone have a wonderful Monday! I can't wait to see what this week brings!

Plugged In

I am now of the number of those who can access the interwebs 24/7. It took me forever (in internet time) but now I can post fun things for you all when I'm on the go!

I'm still experimenting, obviously, but here's the first picture I took with my new phone friend.

Can you tell I couldn't figure out how to rotate the picture? WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES.

Love,
Harris
