Fitness Fashion Friday and Green Eye shadow

by runeatrepeat on March 15, 2013

Hello and Happy Friday!

This Sunday is St. Patrick’s Day and in honor of the occasion I thought we’d all drink green beer and wear green eye shadow and do some Irish river dancing. Agreed? Good.

So, in the spirit of drinking too much and wearing too much makeup I used this green eye shadow quad to do a vlog. Then, it came out crappy and is taking forever to upload so we’ll just pretend like it didn’t happen.IMG 1512 800x600 thumb Fitness Fashion Friday and Green Eye shadow

Light color under the brow line.

Khaki on the lid.

Green in the crease.

Blend.

Black eyeliner and mascara.

Drink some green beer and convince yourself it looks good.

Done.

Since the LA Marathon is on St.Patty’s I will not be wearing any makeup but I will be wearing a RER shirt and Pro Compression striped socks.  I also hit up the Target $1.00 bins for a head piece, but the odds of me ditching it my mile 2 are very very high. 20130301 065857 thumb1 Fitness Fashion Friday and Green Eye shadow

My running group calls our Saturday before Easter run “The Easter Bunny Hop” and we try to wear bunny ears. They last about twenty steps before we toss them!

Good luck on your marathon on Sunday! Have fun!

I think that’s the only time I’ve thought green eye shadow looks good. Good job!

Ha! I had to look up the HAC abbreviation. I’m all C and no H though – need to get on that.

Aweee bummer! I wanna see the vlog! I tried to rock some green eyeshadow today too but…..it didnt quite work. Got the green nail polish though! My daughter’s 9th bday is on St. Patty’s Day so we will be celebrating!! :) You should put some green food coloring in the toilet and tell Ben a leprechaun peed in it!

Where did you get the PRO Compression socks!? I had searched online the past couple of weeks and they don’t have them on their website. Boo!

Reply

20 runeatrepeat March 15, 2013 at 5:39 pm

:( If they’re not still on the website they’re probably sold out :( Are you running LA? They’re going to be at the expo and might have some?

21 Lindsey March 15, 2013 at 7:30 pm

I wish I was in LA. I’m all the way on the east coast. Enjoy and good luck!

Enjoy the marathon! I just painted my toenails in honor of St. Paddys! This weekend consists of me teaching a ton of group ex classes and making a really big announcement to friends and family! :o ))

I fully intend on using all (or just too much) of that green eye shadow I bought way back when (with the intention of using often… thought it would look good effortlessly bc my eyes are green. ish. Wrong, btw.) on Sunday! Have a great race!

My cat’s name is Vegas, too! I was shocked to read you had a VegasCat too! Totally jacked my original name. Ha! I forgive; I forgive! …I was so proud if my creativity though.

Spent my slow day at work reading your blog! Love it!

Well, today (Saturday) was spent in a day-long zzz work course. Tomorrow – will probably head to Klang to cheer on friends who’re running the KEC race.

I know those socks are sold out, but I am hating that I didn’t some

You have gorgeous eyes (with or without make-up)!
Good luck in the marathon!
No races for me but I did run 22 miles this morning.

This weekend will be lots of green beer, the Kansas City Irish Festival and Parade, some corned beef, and turning four-leaf clover green with envy of all my LA/Chicago friends running such awesome looking marathons this weekend (oh, and watching KU basketball, because in addition to being St. Patricks, it’s also Big 12 Tournamet time!)

I love those socks! enjoy the marathon and good luck!

I was supposed to go to an Irish pub last night with the boyfriend, but we ended up getting sushi instead. Not very Irish, but definitely tasty.

Cute headband. It’ll at least make for great “before” pictures. I can’t imagine I’d be able to wear that through an entire race, either!

I ran a half marathon in Chicago on Saturday. Running south on the Lakeshore Trail wasn’t bad but something told me NOT to ditch my throw-away. Good thing I listened to myself. The last 6.5+ miles had us running North on the Lakeshore Trail; straight in to stong winds (that never subsided), snow & sleet. By the time I crossed the finish line, I was “fuh-rozen”! It was brutal.

I’m predicting you had better weather in L.A.
