I never leave the house without lipstick, specifically Shiseido in S15. I splurge on Creme de la Mer and I smell like Tom Ford Black Orchid Parfume. I am very girlie, but I am also a bookworm and a bit of a tomboy. I have 3 college degree's, and I may get a 4th just for sh*ts and giggles. I think drugs are for losers and liberals...and I'm neither. I never wear socks but I do love fishnet stockings. I love old Hollywood glamour like Marilyn Monroe and Betty Page. I am a licensed makeup artist and Sephora is my favorite toy store. I am a lady but I sometimes daydream about being a stripper. I am terrified of dying from old age without having accomplished something. I once walked two whole city blocks with my skirt tucked into the back of my nylons. I'm not insensitive, I'm just a good actress. I am very feisty and do not put up with people's sh*t. I'm only 5'3 so I live in high heels. I work in PR/Marketing/Communication but all I've ever really wanted to do is write children's books.
