Yesturday was my 26th birthday, yes I know, I’m getting old! I made these cute “True Blood” inspired cupcakes to celebrate my birthday last night with my Fang Bangers aka My True Blood club. We munched on these (as well as other fab snacks the girls created) while watching the True blood season finale! I actually went out “out” the night before my birthday and celebrated my birthday with all my friends. I love kareoke and decided to sing my heart out on my day. Here are pics of my make up look I wore out :0)
For my birthday celebration I rocked out in a classic smokey eye. I incorporated the seasons metallic craze, and added lots of silver to my smokey. I did a lot of contouring to sculpt my face (Lord knows I need it!) and kept my lips a soft pink.
This was one of the best birthdays I have ever had and I also have great news for my followers! Since I am always complaining about my crappy image quality, my boyfriend bought me a digital camera for my birthday. Whoot Whoot! I’m So excited!!!!
All along I have been using the camera on my HTC EVO (Which takes decent pics) for my blog. I wanted to up the picture quality for my blog, so I did research about good cameras for blogging as well as making youtube videos. I currently have an HD webcam, but still find that some of my videos don’t come out as good as I would like them. I decided to go with a Panasonic Lumix and so far I like it. I still have to play with it and get used to the settings, but that will come with time. Does anyone else have this camera that can get me some pointers?
P.S. Now that I have a new camera I will be posting more frequent videos. I’m still a little video shy and enjoy writing blogs, but I know some readers also like video posts…so worry no more…they will be coming shortly!

Wow, what a fun post. I turned 24 this year and I already feel like I have one foot in the grave, lol!! Congrats on your new camera (I desperately need/want one too) and I really hope you start doing videos because you have so much talent to share. Having just filmed my first one recently (second one coming tonight) I can say it definitely gets easier the more you do it. Best of luck with it!

Thanks Meredith. I’m enjoying the new camera and plan to do a video sometime this week. I need to buy a tripod, my brother gave me a gift card to get one, so its just a matter of getting to the store. I love your new tutorials btw…you are so natural! What program are you using to edit them? They look very clean and professional.
