(Announcer voice) Weeeelcome to a little thing we call Seeeee It Agaaaaaain SUUUUNDAAAAAY!!!!! It’s that day of the week where you get to, well, see it again (enter cheesy announcer chuckle and wink here 🥴). See it again Sunday will be a chance to see some old favorites that pertain to the week we just saw. This week was Disney Villain week and Ursula from a few years ago gets to end our week for us! You can see her transformation in the highlights and sweet baby Sophie at the end. I had read her the Ariel story over and over and over at bedtime so she knew the words. I dressed her up and said my line NOT COACHING HER AT ALL!!!!!! When her sweet little voice cane through it took EVERYTHING in me not to break character and gobble her up in a fit of giggles 😂😂😂😂. Enjoy poor unfortunate souls, enjoy 💜🖤💜🖤
Can I admit something? When Chef Skinner said this in ratatouille I broke into a fit of laughter. What a funny thing to say! Such a funny combination of words! Must be because English was his second language…..silly man should have said it’s highly suspicious. Theeeen I started hearing it used in this same way in books and in other films. I felt so silly not having known the word “suspect” could be used as an adjective as well as a verb 🥴. IIIIIIIIIII was the imbecile 😂. I also used to think that Michael Jackson sang “And noooo messes coulda been in my cupboard” (Man In the Mirror 🙈). I thought Freddie Mercury was “kickin my cat all over the place.” Any mishaps like this for you? Realized a song lyric wasn’t what you thought it was? Kept using a word wrong? Spill it!!!!!! Don’t make me feel alone!!!👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 and doesn’t my cousin Beth look smashing as Chef Skinner??? I was inspired by Audrey Logeasis (a makeup genius!) and the nose almost KILLED me!!!! 😂😂😂
“Oh, how shall I do it? Oh, I know. I’ll turn him into a flea, a harmless little flea. And then I’ll put that flea in a box, and then I’ll put that box inside of another box, and then I’ll mail that box to myself, and when it arrives…I’ll smash it with a HAMMER! It’s brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, I tell you! Genius, I say! Or to save on postage, I’ll just poison him with this!”
Yzma is another one of those villains that you can’t help but love, and quote, and laugh at, then quote again. Can you even RECOGNIZE who this is???????? My favorite channel 4 anchor turned empress of the whole world @jessiemiller4!!!!!! Can you even SEE her in there????? She cane down to spend the 5 days it took to do this look and we couldn’t have been happier. Sophie even got to hold her very first babykins!!! Swipe to see the fitness overload and to see Jessie’s perfection whilst not being purple 😂. I was so excited when she said how much she loved Yzma and quoting her (who doesn’t???). You do TOO???? Okay, lay it on me. Fave Yzma quotes….GO!!!!!! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻💜💜💜🖤🖤🖤
Magic mirror on the wall, whoooo is the fairest one of all?
This queen had the wrong idea about “chasing pretty”, can I get an amen? There are so many beautiful things in this world and it’s okay to be in love with them, to appreciate them and bask in their, well, beauty! I am overwhelmed each time I go to Disney. The beauty of the details, the pretty shops and decor. But what if the inside of these beautiful buildings was covered in rotten garbage? We’d think twice about entering again even though the outside is still beautiful! Wanting to teach my little Sophie to be beautiful on the inside and that’s its okay to be beautiful on the outside too. Balance Queen, that’s what you were missing. In the beginning of the movie and well, at the end too.

“I’m miserable darling, as usual. Perfectly wretched.” 😂😂😂 I have loooonged to do a Cruella transformation for far too long. Dreams realized!!!! I was so lucky to have my sweet friend and client Leighanne from @yourhomebasedmombe in town for a few weeks. I did her makeup for a video production she had going on and then we schemed this look into existence in a matter of DAYS!!!!! Thank you Amazon prime 😂.
I already had this coat on hand but all the details were on my doorstep in one day and we were painting away the next. Again, here’s one of those mouths painted on top of her closed mouth and I LOVE how it turned out!!!! I’ve seen a few you tubers do this fantastic smile and I knew I had to try. Are you brave enough to do it for Halloween this year? I tell you it’s INSTANT amazingness!!!! The only problem is you can’t smile for pictures 🤣. It’s harder than you think!!! Huge thank you to @Yourhomebasedmom for being such a good sport and channeling her inner diva 🤩.
Have you met Cruella at Disneyland? Was she a riot? What did she say??? Tell me! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 I only met her once and she was chasing Pluto 🤪

I wish……I wish……what do you wish? Have you ever had a dream that you wanted so badly you could taste it? Well you are in good company because so did Cinderella, Rapunzel, Red Riding Hood, the Baker’s wife. Wait, you don’t know who the Baker’s wife is???? Wahhhheeeeeeellll, let me introduce her to those of you not familiar with the ever magical play Into the Woods. This story houses all of the original fairytale princesses Mr. Walt told you about and then some. Each of these characters wish for something they don’t have and then set out to make these wishes come true. The central characters, in my mind, are the baker and his wife. They long for a child but aren’t able to conceive because of a dark and sinister witch’s curse. Enter Meryl Streep, who will be playing the witch in Disney’s newest motion picture Into the Woods coming out Christmas Day!!! I can HARDLY wait!!!!!!! Now, because this is my most favorite play and I have seen it about a dozen times, I reeeaaaalllllly (insert me doing a somewhat crazy potty dance while saying that) wanted to do a photo shoot where we brought these characters to life in our own way. We brought in a little culture by recreating a famous Botticelli painting. The amazing Archive Costumes over at Hale Theater in Orem, Utah donated all of our beautiful costumes. Kris, the manager over there is a magician! You tell her your party, event, themed book club gathering ;), or idea and she is OFF! Runs to the back of her magical closet and brings out ribbons, corsets, hats, gloves, sweaters, canes, detailed buckles…everything! Our very own Jacque from Looks For Lovelies added finishing details (hello jewelry?) and helped with the direction for the shoot and even played our Red. And, of COURSE, our amazing photographer Summer of Summer Nicole Photography, who is in our book club as well, took all of the dreamy pictures. I am constantly amazed by the crispness of her pictures, the tone and colors. It’s like she can read my mind and see what it needs to be before I even say anything. It was a huge effort and I am SO excited to show you all of the pics….ready???
Spooooooky right? =) Now, our book club, Delicious Reads, if you haven’t noticed or if you are new here, goes above and beYOND when it comes to being creative. Through elaborate themes, menus, dressing up, off site photo shoots, retreats…and we read books HA! They are the first ones I went to when wanting to recreate these characters. First up? The witch. Our wonderful book club member and celebrated new author Robin was able to play a darker side as she tried her best to keep Rapunzel from any and all evil……..and casting curses left and right.
{shrug} It’s what they do.
Her makeup consisted of pale foundation and lots of contouring to make wrinkles, cuz she has none ;). Isn’t she terrifying?
Beautiful Kara, whom you may remember from our Hedwig shoot, portrays Rapunzel. This is one of my favorite gowns that Hale Theater donated to the shoot. Being a mom I can definitely relate to wanting to shield my children from all that is evil in the world. Rapunzel’s story is an over the top depiction of what could happen.
Ah, our beautiful Red portrayed by Jacque blows my mind. She is the most perfect person to portray the innocence and wonder of Red. Her dowey eyes are stunning and her lips crave color. I used MAC’s Relentlessly Red on her (get it?) and deepened the corners with a touch of MAC’s Dark Side.
Can you see me? That’s ME! lol It was actually really fun to be in front of the camera with this one since I would LOVE to be her in the play (she’s my fav). To reverse the curse of the witch, there are four things the witch told me and “my husband” to find. One of them is a cape as red as blood. It’s not as easy as you would think. Red and Jacque both love their clothes, and rightly so =).
Look at us checking images…awwwwww! I love that Summer captured this {heart}.
No mashing of fairytales can be complete without mentioning the Little Cinder Girl. Beautiful Kitch acts out the most iconic phrase in the whole production…I wish. She, of course wishes to go to the festival. To dance, to be free, to meet the prince. Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it.
Then again, who wouldn’t want to be free from ridicule and hard labor? Poor Cinderella had to live in the shadows of three rather large personalities. Carissa from Carissa Miss and Angie from our unforgettable Capital shoot were PERFECT for these roles. The over the top faces and extravagance! Angie, might I add is obsessed with watching ANTM and KILLED all of her shots! She also was hugely responsible for helping everyone else pose which, if you aren’t a professional model and you’re asked to step in front of the camera, is a huge blessing! I loved her direction and it always turned out amazing when we tilted this way, bent that way, like she said. That girl, talent!
These two sisters live to be known by the wealthy and most importantly the prince. HOW could he not find them irresistible?
And what is the step family without the wicked stepmother? Kellie, also from book club yielded a stern expression and amazing bone structure to the beautiful, yet cruel caretaker of poor Cinderella. The lengths this woman will go to to have her daughters wed to royalty. Isn’t her gown stunning???
Here is the whole inspiration behind the shoot. We wanted to find a painting with just enough people to supply us with a vision for just the “Women Of the Woods”. La Primavera by Botticelli fit the bill perfectly. The lad in the cape was perfect to be Red, the three dancing women our stepfamily, the woman in the middle, the baker’s wife (remember her being the central character), next is Cinderella gathering something in her gwn and longingly wishing to be apart of the dance to her right. Lastly you see the struggle between the witch and Rapunzel. Obviously this is not what he had in mind when he painted it but put our characters in the same positioning aaaaaaaaannnnnd…..
Voila! Our very own Botticelli inspired, Into the Woods inspired photo. Inspiration within inspiration, it’s like Inception lol! I cannot tell you what it does to me that these women are willing to jump out of reality, get made up and go pose out in the woods so that I could have a dream realized. I was seriously giddy the whole day!
The cast for Disney’s Into the Woods is ridiculous! Don’t miss it. I plan to be in my seat, Christmas Day, WITH my popcorn, IN Sacramento!!!!! I am SO beyond excited to go home for the first time in our married lives for Christmas!!! We just told the boys that we are leaving tonight and that they are all packed up and ready to go! Are you going? Do you have your tickets yet? Go to the wood!!!
I have a story for this Capital Gal. May I share it? Oh thank you! lol This is a girl that came from the slums of the capital. A girl that wanted to fit in with the ritzy, over styled, zany Capital crowd. The women that would walk around in a “half in reality” kind of way. Not a care in the world, no wrinkles from stress. No matter what she did, she didn’t seem to be quite right. She didn’t say the right thing, do the right thing, love the same things or wear anything that came close to the women she so desperately wanted to be.
She began to watch closely to see where these women went to get their hair done, where they received their injections for face mutations and mood alterations and where they went to shop for clothing. After a few months, she finally had it! A long list of the places she too would visit. The shop keepers were only to happy to hear about her desire for change. She was so eager in the makeup shop that the woman called her a tigress and proceeded to add various tiger like stripe marks. Her contouring was injected into the hollows of her cheeks which resulted in bruising (hence the purples and pinks), but she didn’t care, she was on her way! They permanently removed her brows and gave her markings that would make her unique…just like the rest of the crowd. She went and had her hair done where they spent hours concocting the most delicious colors and curls. The dress maker constructed the glitz and glamour she had been hoping for.
The last and most important shop she entered would seal her fate. A woman sat on a lone chair, surrounded by bottles and bottles of brightly colored liquids. The air was thick as all the different perfumes mixed from each container and hung like a cloud above the woman’s head. She giggled every now and then which unsettled our capital hopeful but not enough to back down. She had come this far and was determined to finish. The woman held out a wine glass full of a blue liquid that she promised would make all of her dreams come true. As long as she had a ready supply, she would not only fit in (since everyone else drank fluids from this shop) but she would no longer worry about anything. Nothing.
She drank.
The cool liquid quickly became warm as it slid down her throat and coated her insides like thick maple syrup. Slowly, her cares left. But with them left her passion, her ideals, her happiness at seeing the sunset, her life. She was as light as a cloud, giggling over silliness. She walked differently, spoke differently and felt differently about everything. She finally fit in and the drones all around her welcomed her with open arms and mutilated faces. It was worth it right? To lose herself completely? She fit in.
Did you like it? That, my friends was a long winded story I had as I thought about making up our amazingly talented model Angie (who should be rocking ANTM btw). I used Kryolan brand prosthetic adhesive to erase Angie’s brows (amazing tutorial here) then used face paint to create her new pink and white tiger-esque brows. I used MAC’s “Fig 1” “Carbon” and “Passionate” to create the contouring. Two sets of Halloween lashes were used. Purple for the ridiculous element and black to bring some depth. Angie had a makeup palette that had butterflies on it. We clipped them off, thinking our capital girl could have had a fascination for them. Some she trapped in the netting of her skirt, some in her hair and because of the effects of the liquid she drinks one even stuck to the skin of her face (I used spirit gum). Hope you enjoy!
