Manicure Monday: Frenchie

Manicure Monday: Frenchie

My hands-down favorite manicure has always been the classic French.  It’s simple and elegant.  It always makes my nails look longer and prettier than they really are.  I think it’s a great manicure for almost any occasion.  I like to play up a French manicure any way I can, and for Manicure Monday this week, […]

Manicure Monday: Inspired by Color

Manicure Monday: Inspired by Color

As much as I love looking for inspiration on Pinterest, I know that I’m limited in terms of nail art by what I can actually do and what tools I have at home.  It’s more important for me to have a simple-yet-neat design than an intricate-but-possibly-sloppy design.  Sometimes when I’m trying to figure out what […]

Manicure Monday: Nicki Minaj for OPI

Manicure Monday: Nicki Minaj for OPI

As much as we all love nail art, sometimes it’s important to let the polish shine.  Nicki Minaj’s OPI collection is quite possibly my favorite nail polish collection, color-wise, of all time.  That’s not even an exaggeration.  The range of color is so big, but they all manage to work well together at the same […]

Butter London Limited Edition Heavy Medals Collection

So the Olympics are in full swing and you haven’t left the couch for days. We get it. Collaboreight editors have been glued to the TV since the opening ceremony, but somehow bronze, silver, and gold seem right at our fingertips. (See what I did there?) If the closest I’ll ever get to an Olympic […]

Mercure And Me: Luxembourg

Okay, so I’m kind of a hoarder when it comes to hotel toiletries. They’re cute, convenient, and great ways to try out new — and often times, exclusive — products. And sometimes, they’re surprisingly awesome. Take, for instance, these “Mercure and Me” complimentary products from the Mercure Hotel in Luxembourg City. Fun, graphic bottles and […]

Manicure Monday: Pink Glitter

Manicure Monday: Pink Glitter

Happy Manicure Monday!  What I love most about style is how often you can change it up.  A girly girl rocking a motorcycle jacket is unexpected and fun.  Combinations of lace and leather, pearls and studs, or even flowers and skulls show versatility and creativity when it comes to style.  I have days when I […]

Crayons, Markers, & Pencils: Not Your Back-to-School Supplies

Forget about your composition notebooks and have fun with these crayons, markers, and pencils: the kind you’ll probably actually look forward to shopping for.
