Manicure Monday: Pretty Glam
In last week’s Manicure Monday post, I told you about the nail polish my little sister picked me up on her trip to South Korea. I’m currently obsessed with them, so this week, I couldn’t wait to use them again!
Manicure Monday: Mint Chocolate Chip
My little sister recently took a trip to South Korea, so naturally, when she asked what souvenir I wanted, I said nail polish. She came back with the eight beauties, plus some fun nail art studs. Obviously, I couldn’t wait to get started! A black and white glitter polish really caught my eye – it’s a […]
Manicure Monday: Back to Design
I wanted to thank everyone for the kind words I’ve been receiving about starting up my weekly Manicure Monday posts again. For those that don’t know, I’m coming out of quite a busy period in my life. I was applying to new jobs, helping to plan my sister’s wedding, and moving to a totally different […]
Manicure Monday: More than Glitter
Sprucing up a basic manicure is simple – just add a glittery accent nail! Whether it’s because I’m too lazy to decorate every nail or because I don’t like to over-complicate things, I’m a big fan of the accent nail. It helps to elevate your manicure without going overboard – and without spending hours to […]
Maleficent x MAC Cosmetics
I can’t think of a new movie release that I’m more excited about than the upcoming Disney film, Maleficent. The spooky live-action film will re-imagine the iconic villain of one of my favorite animated films, Sleeping Beauty. A fun accompaniment to the movie is a brand new makeup collaboration with MAC Cosmetics that is a […]
Manicure Monday: Glitz & Glam
And we’re back! I’ve hardly had time to slap some clear polish on my nails in the past few months, let alone create a manicure worthy of a Manicure Monday blog post. Between finding a new job, moving, and planning my sister’s wedding, it’s been a crazy couple of months. But I did it – […]
The Gnarly Whale
“I just had a life-changing experience.” What now, Kristine? “I used a new shampoo. It’s from a company called The Gnarly Whale. It comes in a spray bottle.” That’s… “Amazing? Yeah, I know. It smells like eucalyptus and is just heavenly.” The above is an actual transcript of a phone conversation I had the night […]

Divergent x Sephora Makeup Collection
Are you ready for the most kick-ass beauty collection ever released by Sephora? The beauty superbrand’s latest collaboration is with the upcoming movie, Divergent. The film, featuring Shailene Woodley as Tris Prior and Theo James as Four Eaton is an amped-up version of the favorite novel of the same title, but the makeup collection the franchise has inspired is […]
New York Fashion Week: Milly Fall/Winter 2014
Milly by Michelle Smith’s pretty blush-toned collection for autumn/winter 2014 evoked the true ethereal spirit of beautiful ballerinas! Some of the runway collection’s pieces felt like a ballet dancer’s prettiest stage looks, and others captured the edgier, off-duty style of artistic ballerinas, even including some on-trend menswear inspiration in luxurious cream and caramel hues. Bare-faced beauty looks accentuated the […]
