Ok, people.
We have all endured more than our share of horrid winters and mediocre rainy early Springs.
Enough is enough!
Time to feel refreshed and to showcase our new selves! While it would have been fun to appear on the Kathy Lee and Hoda show to get makeovers, I took the liberty of doing the makeovers myself.
Because I prayed knew that you would take no offense to these liberties, plus, I was bored and needed something to do besides puke all day.
If you are not featured here, there is still time for your very own makeover. Just leave me a note on the comments that you too would like a Spring Makeover.
I now present to you, the new YOU!
Talented Poet, Pam from, Year Round Thanksgiving Project. She’s a lovely red-head so I kept her beautiful color and just gave her a funky cut.
You guessed it! This is Guapo, of course, from Guapola. I made sure to keep him in his favorite bathing trunks because he wears them…well!
This Wild Child needs no introduction, really. But take a look at Susie’s new girls! I did a little bit of nipping, tucking and enhancing and voilà!
What do you get a beautiful courageous woman who walked 444 miles of the Natchez Trace? Well, new feet and toes, of course! Andra deserves a pedi for life.
This Spanish Señorita is Jill from, Pursuing a Passion for Writing. She won the Spanish Test I gave and looks fab in Red. She loves to dance the Flamenco.
Don’t let this little “Bug” Julie, from BugBites fool you. She is quite the weight lifter! I thought she would enjoy a nice bob hairdo.
He is stronger that a Wolverine! Jacklumen from, The Tao of Jacklumen has endured more pain than humanly possible. I gave him some much-needed powers.
Our creative and colorful Poet, Catherine is sporting a Springy Pink hairdo to go along with her fun child-like ways.
This beautiful Bride-To-Be Princess, Jess from The Happiness Project, will look stunning in this new bridal wear. I’ll let you use it for free, Jess!
Though he “forgot” to mention me on his blog roll (ahem), I wanted Stuphblog to grow out his hair and wear a Hard Rock t-shirt while celebrating his 25 days 25 song challenge.
Oh, this Honey is awesome! Shelley from Honey Did You See That just finished traveling around the US having more adventures than any of us can dream about. I gave her a bit more hair (dyed the white patch for fun) and sent her climbing.
Rachel always has something on her Table going on! Now that she left her job, she will need more aprons in her collection.
She may want a place to go wild quietly, but Alarna is powerfully quiet and can kick ass! You can keep the bandana, Alarna.
Although my amigo himself is NOT A DUMBASS, FearlessLeader reminds us how close we all are to being dumbasses. I thought I would provide him with his own Ass. (de nada)
Shannon at mrsugarbears is the sweetest thing on earth! She loves to make the best out of life and knows how to have fun. You wear this better than Miley, girl!
Phil IS New York City! He says he is a regularguynyc, but there is nothing regular about him. This makeover is a better representation of who he is. You can keep the horse.
Mark is a METS fan but if he were a player, he would definitely attend the birth of his child even if it meant missing a game. So there! You tell ’em Mark!
Jackie, at To breathe is to write is missing her Texas Days so I thought I would put her back in the saddle and make her the Cowgirl she truly is. Thanks for commenting often 🙂
This Hot Mama, Sherri from a View From My Summerhouse is a new amiga I met via the lovely, Jill. She will be drying my tears when my daughter leaves for college.
Doesn’t Maurnas from Cursivity look great in her Rihanna cut? I over did it on her spray-on tan on her face though, sorry about that. This cut is on me, no more DIY!
Our very own Ninja, Aussa from Hacker.Ninja.Hooker.Spy already had great hair (bea-tch) so she didn’t need much of a hair makeover. I did give her new boots so she can kick some real ass the next time she goes to NYC.
Piper, from Bayard & Holmes and I, often talk about our trips to Cabelas’s and Bass Pro Shops so I thought I’d surprise her with a Camo Dress! She looks amazing in it, doesn’t she? Can I borrow it for my daughter’s Senior Prom?
This beautiful Mother-Daughter team, Inion N. Mathair , two voices one thought, make the perfect mermaids! Just in time for the warm weather!
This Mama from anewprespectiveperhaps, needs some R & R! I’m sending her to the beach on her own to just lounge, read and frolic!
Here is Nancy from myyearofsweat. I gave her a new workout outfit. She is still sweating it out and making amazing goals for herself. She recently got yelled out by moi for using the dirty F word, Failure.
Kitt is a lot more than an innerwildkat! She has been very busy writing her sexy novels and so I thought she could use a new whip and cat ears. Meow…
Now, Merbear may have been knocked over by a feather on more than one occasion but she’s a fighter! I have given her this feather hat to wear to show her that feathers are not the enemy! You go girl!
***************************
Happy Spring!
You are too funny! Loved this! All of them were so perfect. Aussa’s was especially funny as was Andra’s. Thanks for the laugh!
