Hello Classic Crew and welcome to today's video where we're going to be doing a vacation get ready
00:00:05.320
with me. If you're wondering why the sound is a little weird in this video, number one we're
00:00:15.440
recording on my phone and number two we're in a bathroom so that means it's going to be a little
00:00:22.160
bit echoey. I'm also kind of looking above the camera at the mirror and I'm doing it from a
00:00:28.840
distance. So yeah we're gonna see how this turns out but I just wanted to start off by putting on
00:00:37.620
some chapstick and I'm putting on a little bit of sunscreen that has a tint in it. So we are on
00:00:45.100
vacation. We had a plan to just do an easy vacation to a close-by area so we're actually in Miami which
00:00:55.220
is kind of fun. It's not a far drive from us but we're here overnight which oh you probably are
00:01:01.360
noticing I'm not flicking off the camera. I have a big gash in my hand and not from anything
00:01:06.160
interesting. I was unpacking my son's closet and something fell and I got a scrape and then I
00:01:13.560
looked down and it looked like this. So it looks a lot more scary than it actually is but in any
00:01:17.840
case we thought oh we'll do something easy and fun so we don't have to like fly anywhere but we
00:01:23.460
have my husband has a few days off so we can actually do something and like travel in the
00:01:29.080
sense of stay away from home and so we're at a hotel we're having fun but our plans have all
00:01:37.900
shifted quite a bit because the weather in Florida is very cold. Now it's not cold for the rest of the
00:01:44.060
country where I know a lot of people are getting hit with things that are awful and all my prayers
00:01:48.740
go to the people who are suffering right now but it's pretty cold here so it's like in the 40s
00:01:53.960
and that's really cold for Florida. Luckily we still have some of our we still have some of our
00:02:02.300
winter stuff unpacked because we've only been in Florida for a little bit of time
00:02:07.720
so we a little bit but like only five months so it's not like we necessarily put everything
00:02:14.520
totally away or gave it away so we still had access to some coats and some hats and things like
00:02:19.540
that but it was actually really funny because when Mr. Baby was teeny tiny actually before he was born
00:02:28.340
I went shopping at Once Upon a Child which is an awesome consignment store and got Mr. Baby a bunch of
00:02:36.400
clothes for winter because I didn't know that we were going to be moving to Florida at the time
00:02:41.300
and so after we moved it was like oh I'm kind of sad he's never going to get to wear these adorable
00:02:45.960
little jackets and sweaters and they were all for when he was older they were all like 12 months
00:02:51.580
so then when we had this random cold snap it was actually perfect timing because he fit into all of
00:03:01.300
these things and he'll get to wear them for a few days and then uh they'll probably get put away
00:03:07.280
until our next baby and hopefully there's another cold snap when he's you know the same size now to
00:03:12.740
be clear Mr. Baby's only nine months but he's in 12 to 18 month clothing because he's really tall
00:03:17.580
so that's pretty crazy but the big lesson of this trip has been that we are having to do a lot of plan
00:03:27.760
be because when you do a trip to Miami you assume you're gonna be at the pool you're gonna be at the
00:03:32.560
beach uh but it's freezing so we can't actually do much of that so we're doing different activities
00:03:39.720
which are still fun but different so rolling with the punches I think is a good philosophy to have
00:03:47.160
when you are doing a vacation because things always don't go to plan um and on top of that Mr. Baby
00:03:54.140
he woke up with a little fever this morning it's not too bad but he's not so sick he kind of has
00:04:01.420
like a little bit of a of a stuffy nose and just a fever but he's doing pretty okay he's just a little
00:04:09.420
grumpy so we gave him a little bit of medicine because it was a little too high for our liking and
00:04:14.060
he wasn't feeling good and he went down for a nap and hopefully he'll sleep it off a little bit
00:04:19.140
um but yeah things just don't go to plan a when you're traveling with kiddos and b when the weather
00:04:25.340
is crazy so that's where we're at but it's been kind of uh it's been really nice yesterday we went
00:04:32.280
to the zoo we love the zoo I feel like we've talked about that on my channel a lot that we really like
00:04:37.540
the zoo um and that was it was fun it was also very cold so as I mentioned like walking around
00:04:46.360
without gloves because we couldn't find our gloves uh when it was this cold out and obviously
00:04:52.200
miami zoo's gift shop is not gonna have um gloves they're gonna have like bathing suits so we weren't
00:05:01.620
totally prepared for that but it was fun to see the animals as usual tiger was loving the cold weather
00:05:07.660
so he was out and about um that was really fun and then we came here had a delicious dinner
00:05:12.600
and then just checked into the hotel and have been chilling out huge recommendation if you have
00:05:21.160
a young one and you're traveling the slumber pod is amazing so necessary I think everybody
00:05:28.560
should have one um mr baby sleeps so well in his in his slumber pod he slept from 8 30 last night
00:05:36.820
till 7 30 this morning now to be fair he may also be a little sick so that might be part of it but
00:05:41.700
he's done that before in this longer pod so that's that's kind of a cool thing now as far as my
00:05:48.700
vacation makeup I don't do a lot I put on a little bit of foundation a little bit of concealer I'm
00:05:55.780
gonna set everything down I mean my version of a lot is probably of not a lot is probably a lot of
00:06:03.020
people's version of a lot aka I still put on like a base but not everybody does that um but I don't
00:06:13.160
do anything really fancy with mess with uh eyeshadow or stuff like that so I set everything down I mean
00:06:20.140
this is probably gonna be a pretty quick video actually because my get ready with me doesn't
00:06:23.780
take very long I try to keep it short and I think that's a good policy on vacation is just to like
00:06:30.180
not focus so much on the way that you look so that you can have fun with your family I mean if
00:06:34.940
you're in the bathroom for 45 minutes doing your hair and makeup and not spending time with your
00:06:39.120
husband and your kids I don't know man to me that's not very classic I think being classic is you know
00:06:45.380
doing your best to look presentable and look nice and for some women that means putting on makeup for
00:06:49.380
some women it doesn't um but doing that with the with but also keeping in mind that it's important
00:06:57.480
to really balance your time so I'm putting on a little bit of makeup it makes me feel nice it makes
00:07:02.800
me feel ready for the day but I'm not putting on so much makeup like a full-on crazy eye look
00:07:08.300
that I'm not getting to spend time with my family just I don't think that's a good plan so I will say
00:07:16.040
maybe because I'm doing a get ready with me and I'm recording a video I can do something a little
00:07:20.060
bit more intense I saw something this morning that I'm like a little curious to try um and I don't
00:07:26.300
think it should take that long so do you want to do that should we try something what do you guys think
00:07:29.860
I think we're gonna do it okay so let's just do something easy so my plan is I've been seeing all
00:07:36.440
this stuff about siren eyes now basically what that means is extending this part of your eye out a
00:07:43.800
little bit a little part on the inside and just making your eye look very like so we're gonna try
00:07:49.920
it might as well uh I do have a couple minutes because mr. baby sleeping so I'm gonna take just
00:07:55.020
I don't have a credit card they say use a credit card I'm just gonna take my little um my little
00:08:00.540
uh what is this called eyeshadow palette I got it I got there I got it eyeshadow palette and line
00:08:07.100
up with my bottom lash line and then use that to create like an edge for my shadow so as you can
00:08:15.440
see I'm like going up against it to make a line I'm gonna do the same thing on the other side now to
00:08:23.380
be clear I've never done this before so I'm legitimately doing this on camera for the first time
00:08:30.100
and it probably won't turn out that great and that is 100% fine because who cares it's makeup and it
00:08:37.480
washes off so I'm just doing the same thing on the other side and then we're gonna go in with
00:08:49.420
a darker shade closer to the lash line but using this again so like that
00:09:04.900
anyways last night was the last night of Hanukkah and it was also Christmas for so many of you I hope
00:09:13.600
you all had a beautiful Merry Christmas I know that this is such a pretty time of year and also
00:09:22.660
can be emotional for a lot of people if you're not in your family or close to your family I think
00:09:27.460
that could be hard so obviously always sending prayers and love to all of you who are struggling
00:09:34.300
okay so we're gonna fix that don't worry we're not gonna leave it that way okay but that I turned
00:09:49.120
out kind of cool actually right do we agree this one that that's not what we're going for so we're
00:09:55.980
just gonna wipe that off and maybe uh go in again with nothing on this brush
00:10:03.960
oh my gosh that's hilarious uh and just straighten that line a little bit oh my gosh that was very
00:10:12.520
funny so how many of you have kids I'd love to know in the comments how many of my followers have kids
00:10:20.440
and how many don't I'm just like curious to know the demographics on that because
00:10:24.940
like traveling with kids is a whole other ball game and I I actually love it I wouldn't change it
00:10:32.800
for the world um I'm so I just have so much fun seeing Mr. Baby's reaction to things and also I
00:10:39.640
wouldn't want to leave him home I don't know it's just not my thing but not everybody feels that way
00:10:45.060
some people like traveling like on their own with their spouses okay right now I'm going in with
00:10:52.840
just a little bit of brown shadow and I'm defining my inner corner a little bit and then coming up
00:10:57.680
and lining this part here okay we're gonna see how this looks with mascara just as a like heads up
00:11:06.140
when you're doing your eyeshadow everything always comes together with mascara everything looks
00:11:12.280
terrifying until you have mesquite on that's my that's my rule so I'm just kind of like lining this
00:11:21.100
part of the eye I will say this eye worked this eye I need to touch up a little bit okay so let's
00:11:33.380
finish that we're going to go in I'm going to use this flat side of the brush then that I got here
00:11:38.900
I'm just going to use that because I think it'll help me focus the color here any whoosies
00:11:47.380
um yeah so we also are planning on doing some other fun things while we're in Miami I'm excited
00:11:54.700
to honestly I want to hear your thoughts about staycations because I personally can't do them
00:12:01.520
I can't do a staycation because if I'm home I am thinking about all the things I have to do
00:12:07.360
all the time I'm thinking about all of my work thinking about cleaning the house and doing the
00:12:12.900
laundry but when I'm out of the house and I'm traveling or I'm on vacation like I'm able to say
00:12:18.260
somebody that I'll do it when I get home and I don't drive myself crazy about trying to keep my
00:12:23.940
house clean so the idea of a staycation is nice in theory but I don't find that it actually works
00:12:30.240
for me because I'm still dealing with the everyday stressors of just being home and being a homemaker
00:12:35.860
I'd like to know your thoughts in the comments about that because maybe there are some people
00:12:40.840
who can do it by the way uh my hair is not styled at all I left my hairbrush at home I'm going to
00:12:48.060
need to stop and pick one up and this is my actual texture without any product using their shampoo and
00:12:56.200
conditioner and totally unstyled so if you were wondering why my hair looks a little not not its
00:13:01.780
best that's why but I'm going to curl my lashes now and put on some mascara
00:13:11.200
and then maybe if we have an extra couple of minutes I will use Mrs. Midwest's suggestions on
00:13:25.740
my lips so I don't know if you guys watch Mrs. Midwest but if you don't you should she's awesome
00:13:30.540
love her and she just did a vlog where she did her lipstick and talked about how important it is to
00:13:38.720
do liner and she also talked about how kind of over lining your lips on the top a little bit
00:13:46.340
can she like did she didn't say this directly but she kind of meant it um can make you look younger
00:13:54.180
so if you shorten the length of distance from the tip of your nose to your upper lip it'll make you
00:14:00.800
look youthful so I tried that yesterday and I didn't hate it and normally I hate that kind of thing
00:14:08.260
so I was proud of myself for trying something new I'm always very like weird about over lining my
00:14:14.820
lips because a lot of the time I think it makes me look like a clown but whatever I did yesterday I
00:14:23.560
didn't feel like a clown so maybe we'll try that again today okay so one thing I'll say is that I
00:14:32.880
think I need to tap tamper this down on the inner corner a little bit but wow yeah this looks cool
00:14:40.020
siren eyes what do we think leave your votes down below
00:14:44.100
I think it looks pretty nice okay so we're gonna line our lips I don't usually line my lips but I'm
00:14:54.620
getting back into it because I want to see whether Mrs. Midwest is right whether I like it I did it
00:14:59.080
yesterday kind of liked it okay so here's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna just make my upper lip you see
00:15:04.840
how I have a very clear like divot I'm gonna just soften that a little and then draw not like over
00:15:14.000
and then I just color in the whole thing with the liner
00:15:40.940
and then I'm gonna take you should we do lip gloss or lipstick let's do lip gloss
00:16:17.200
and that's the finished look I hope you guys enjoyed today's video I don't even know if I'm
00:16:23.680
gonna have to do any editing in this video I feel like I just talked straight through
00:16:27.440
so that'll be a lot easier on me since we're on vacation I won't have to spend
00:16:32.280
forever editing I hope you guys enjoyed this chatty get ready with me while we're on vacation
