Polish Perfection

Been wanting to try these nail polish sticker thingys for a while now. There are several brands and styles available from Sally Hansen to Sephora but I choose to go with the cheapest option (being frugal and all.) I went with Kiss Nail Dress Fashion nail Strips for about $5.99 from CVS. They were a little tricky to get on and I botched this first set but they came our nicely considering how bad I was at applying them. You basically just stick them onto your nail and file off the excess length. My only qualm about them is that they were too narrow at the base and didn't completely cover the bottom of my nail. I still think they're super cute and will try them again soon!

Maxin and Relaxin

In Philadelphia for the weekend. Something about these maxi dresses from the 90s that I love. They have the perfect amount of frumpiness. Still not too much frump to push them over the uncool edge for me. Everything Thrifted including my oxfords.

Polish Perfection

Saw this on a poster in Sephora and I had to try it for myself. Sally Hansen Gem Crush in "Razzle Dazzle" as the base and Venique "Twinkling Glitter" on the tips. I'm pretty impressed with myself...

Turban Attempt + Ombré Out of Control

What's on top of your head??? Well for starters I was lazy and took to my Pashmina scarf creating this lovely Turban. I suggest giving this look a solid try it's easy-peasy; and protects you lush locks underneath... I received SOOOO many compliments on the look, from ALL:)



On another "What's on top of your head note," OMBRÉ!!!
I love this look, when done correctly and tastefully. CiCi has been rocking these two-toned locks for a minute now, and has gotten out of control. Going from an effortless blended, highlight look to a TRAUMATIC mistake her stylist couldn't conceal. Sorry to say but she's no longer sporting honey dipped tendrils, but rather bleach blonde smothered hair. My tip to CiCi... Less trash more class.

But who am I???



This is the difference between GOOD & EVIL!!!! LOL:)

SkyHigh-ThighHighs

Anticipating an eventful night out on the town. I decided to hit the streets with these AWESOME Kelsie Dagger black suede thigh high boots, a pair of DIY leather shorts (snaps* to my lovely Kris* snaps), a lovely green, beaded embroidered top, and my elbow patches to go! Adding a little va-voom to my style, I fluffed out my curls painting my face with nothing less than "Red Lips," and rocked the night away. Enjoy!

And When She's Done Being Young, She'll Dress Like You

This line from Andre 300 sums me up perfectly. I've been into vintage fashions for a couple of years now ever since I met my blogging partner Krista. I was so inspired by her penchant to ramble through her mom's closet to find unique pieces, that I embarked upon my own journey into the thrift/vintage world.

My mom didn't keep too many things from her old wardrobe but there's still some gems left like this polka dot maxi dress that I pilfered from her.






Sweater: Thrifted 
Dress: The Limited (Vintage from Mom's closet) 
Boots: Timberland
