Manicure Monday: NYFW

Manicure Monday: NYFW

We’re all in a current state of Fashion Week frenzy.  While fall fashions are exploding in stores, spring fashions are gracing the runways in New York, Milan, and Paris.  Naturally, I get most excited about new trends in beauty, but I was honestly a little disappointed by the nail art I’ve seen from Fashion Week.

Manicure Monday: Silver Details

Manicure Monday: Silver Details

Manicures are a great way to express your feelings and personality without being in-your-face – unless, of course, you take a ton of photos and post all about your nails in a blog online, then maybe it’s in-your-face. Anyway, whether I’m feeling geeky, pretty, or punk, I can change my manicure as quickly as I […]

Manicure Monday: Acid Wash

Manicure Monday: Acid Wash

Sometimes the coolest manicures require little to no skill – and this manicure is one of them.  No precision, but all the impact.  Acid-washed jeans are kind of like those manicures.  They don’t take precision to create, but they definitely make a statement.  Acid-wash jeans exploded into the style scene in the late 80’s/early 90’s […]

Fall Into Fashion

One of the things that makes me feel better about leaving the beautiful summer sun behind and transitioning into fall is fashion. I love summer because there’s nowhere else I’d rather be than prancing around the Jersey shore in a bikini and cute cover-up, but there’s something about the tights, the boots, and the knits that come out in fall […]

Manicure Monday: Faux Diamonds

Manicure Monday: Faux Diamonds

I am absolutely in love with the idea of gems, lace, and other things to bedazzle your manicure.  I’m not quite as in love with anything that will make my manicure 3D.  If my nails aren’t totally smooth, I find that my nails snag on my hair way too often.  So as much as I […]

New York Fashion Week: Creatures Of The Wind Spring/Summer 2013 Makeup By NARS

Creatures of the Wind is a super artistic fashion brand that designs beautiful garments featuring graphic patterns and bold colors, so it comes as no surprise that their Spring/Summer 2014 collection was accentuated with vibrant, colorful makeup by NARS. If you love this fresh-off-the-runway look from New York Fashion Week, we’ve got the complete product […]

A Beauty Review: True Girl Naturally Clear Pineapple Blast Zit Zapper

True Girl Naturally Clear Pineapple Blast Zit Zapper, ($16) Color me skeptical, but I really didn’t anything called a “zit zapper” would do anything for my skin. Same goes for blemish bashers — something about the alliterative quality of these catchy terms just makes them feel a whole lot less medical, and a lot more […]

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Stay Flawless

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Stay Flawless

We’ve tried plenty of foundation primers – some good, some not so good – but we’ve never tried a foundation primer that comes in stick-form.  Stay Flawless, an adorable little primer stick, is the newest beauty innovation from Benefit.  We came, we tried, we loved – read on to find out why!

Manicure Monday: Minnie Mouse

There’s something about Disney that’s so … magical.  I don’t think I know anyone that doesn’t like Disney.  In fact, I don’t even know anyone who is neutral about Disney.  Everyone loves Disney! So why not make a Disney-themed manicure? This week’s manicure is a tribute to none other than Minnie Mouse! The bright red […]

Manicure Monday: Dreamcatcher

Manicure Monday: Dreamcatcher

Since last week’s Manicure Monday was dark and fierce, I wanted to go light and girly with this week’s.  I’ve always been impressed with dreamcatchers.  The premise of a dreamcatcher is that you hang it by your bed to catch any evil spirits or nightmares while you’re sleeping.  Whether they work or not is a […]
